■There is a malfunction in the system
*1: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the
front passenger seat, the system may not re cognize him/her as an adult depending on
his/her physique and posture.
*2: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.
*3: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt.
*4: For some children, child in se at, child in booster seat or child in convertible seat, the sys-
tem may not recognize him/her as a child. Factors which may affect this can be the phy-
sique or posture.
*5: Never install a rear-facing ch ild restraint system on the front passenger seat. A forward-
facing child restraint system sh ould only be installed on the front passenger seat when it
is unavoidable. ( P.47)
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on how to install the child
restraint system properly. ( P.47)

WARNING
■Front passenger occupant classifica-
tion system precautions
Observe the following precautions
regarding the front passenger occupant
classification system. Failure to do so may
cause death or serious injury.
●Wear the seat belt properly.
●Make sure the fron t passenger’s seat
belt plate has not been left inserted
into the buckle before someone sits in
the front passenger seat.
●Make sure the “AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator light is not illuminated when
using the seat belt extender for the
front passenger seat. If the “AIR BAG
OFF” indicator light is illuminated, dis-
connect the extender tongue from the
seat belt buckle, and reconnect the
seat belt. Reconnect the seat belt
extender after making sure the “AIR
BAG ON” indicator light is illumi-
nated. If you use the seat belt extender
while the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated, the SRS airbags for
the front passenger will not activate,
which could cause death or serious
injury in the event of a collision.
●Do not apply a heavy load to the front
passenger seat or equipment (e.g.
seatback pocket).
●Do not put weight on the front passen-
ger seat by putting your hands or feet
on the front passenger seat seatback
from the rear passenger seat.
●Do not let a rear passenger lift the
front passenger seat with their feet or
press on the seatback with their legs.
●Do not put objects under the front pas-
senger seat.
●Do not recline the front passenger
seatback so far that it touches a rear
seat. This may cause the “AIR BAG
OFF” indicator light to be illuminated,
which indicates that the SRS airbags
for the front passenger will not activate
in the event of a severe accident. If the
seatback touches the rear seat, return
the seatback to a position where it
does not touch the rear seat. Keep the
front passenger seatback as upright as
possible when the vehicle is moving.
Reclining the seatback excessively
may lessen the effectiveness of the
seat belt system.
●If an adult sits in the front passenger
seat, the “AIR BAG ON” indicator
light is illuminated. If the “AIR BAG
OFF” indicator is illuminated, ask the
passenger to sit up straight, well back
in the seat, feet on the floor, and with
the seat belt worn co rrectly. If the “AIR
BAG OFF” indicator still remains illu-
minated, either ask the passenger to
move to the rear seat, or if that is not
possible, move the front passenger
seat fully rearward.
●When it is unavoidable to install a for-
ward-facing child re straint system on
the front passenger seat, install the
child restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat in the proper order.
(  P.50)
●Do not modify or remove the front
seats.
●Do not kick the front passenger seat or
subject it to severe impact. Otherwise,
the SRS warning light may come on to
indicate a malfunction of the front pas-
senger occupant clas sification system.
In this case, contact your Lexus dealer
immediately.
●Child restraint systems installed on the
rear seat should not contact the front
seatbacks.
●Do not use a seat accessory, such as a
cushion and seat cover, that covers the
seat cushion surface.

■When installing a child restraint
system to a passenger seat
For the safety of a child, install child
restraint systems to a rear seats. When
installing child restraint system to a
front passenger seat is unavoidable,
adjust the passenger seat as follows
and install the child restraint system.
 Raise the seatback as much as pos-
sible
 Move the seat to the rearmost posi-
tion
 Raise the seat to the upper most
position
 If the head restraint interferes with
the child restraint system installa-
tion and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head restraint
When using a child restraint sys-
tem on a passenger seatWARNING
■When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following when installing
child restraint system to the front passen-
ger seat if it is unavoidable. The front pas-
senger SRS air bag inflates with
considerable speed and force that if not
observed may lead to death or serious
injury to the child.
●Never install a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator light is illuminated. In the event of
an accident, the force of the rapid infla-
tion of the front passenger airbag can
cause death or serious injury to the
child if the rear-fac ing child restraint
system is installed on the front passen-
ger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passen-
ger seat only when it is unavoidable. A
child restraint system that requires a
top tether strap should not be used in
the front passenger seat since there is
no top tether strap anchor for the front
passenger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passen-
ger seat only when it is unavoidable.
When installing a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as pos-
sible, and raise the seat to the upper
most position, even if the “AIR BAG
OFF” indicator light is illuminated. If
the head restraint interferes with the
child restraint system installation and
the head restraint can be removed,
remove the head restraint.

For safety and security
A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be properly
restrained on the seat with the lap por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt.
■Installing child restraint system
using a seat belt (child restraint
lock function belt)
Install the child restraint system in
accordance to the operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint sys-
tem.
■Rear-facing — Infant seat/convert-
ible seat
1 Adjust the seatback
If there is a gap between the child seat and
the seatback, adjust the seatback until
good contact is achieved.
WARNING
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the seat,
front pillars or roof side rails from
which the SRS side airbags or SRS
curtain shield airbags deploy even if
the child is seated in the child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the SRS side
and curtain shield airbags inflate, and
the impact could cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child.
●When a booster seat is installed,
always ensure that th e shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the
child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but
not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder.
When using a child restraint sys-
tem on a rear seat
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions. Fail-
ure to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
●Use child restraint system suitable to
the age and size of the child and install
it to the rear seat.
●If the driver’s seat interferes with the
child restraint system and prevents it
from being attached correctly, attach
the child restraint system to the right-
hand rear seat.
●Adjust the front passe nger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or th e area of the seat,
rear pillars or roof side rails from which
the SRS curtain shield airbag deploys
even if the child is seated in the child
restraint system. It is dangerous if the
SRS curtain shield airbag inflates, and
the impact could cause death or seri-
ous injury to the child.

■Automatic Collision Notification
In case of either airbag deployment or
severe rear-end collision, the system is
designed to automatically call the
response center. The responding agent
receives the vehicle’s location and
attempts to speak with the vehicle
occupants to assess the level of emer-
gency. If the occupants are unable to
communicate, the ag ent automatically
treats the call as an emergency, con-
tacts the nearest emergency services
provider to describe the situation, and
requests that assistance be sent to the
location.
■Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect
can work with local authorities to assist
them in locating and recovering the
vehicle. After filing a police report, call
the Safety Connect response center at
1-800-25-LEXUS (1-800-255-
3987) and follow the prompts for
Safety Connect to initiate this service.
In addition to assisting law enforce-
ment with recovery of a stolen vehicle,
Safety-Connect-equipped vehicle
location data may, under certain cir-
cumstances, be shared with third par-
ties to locate your vehicle. Further
information is available at Lexus.com.
■Emergency Assistance Button
(“SOS”)
In the event of an emergency on the
road, push the “SOS” button to reach
the Safety Connect response center.
The answering agent will determine
your vehicle’s location, assess the
emergency, and dispatch the neces-
sary assistance required.
If you accidentally press the “SOS” button,
tell the response-center agent that you are
not experiencing an emergency.
■Enhanced Roadside Assistance
Enhanced Roadside Assistance adds
GPS data to the already included war-
ranty- based Lexus roadside service.
Subscribers can press the “SOS” but-
ton to reach a Safety Connect
response-center agent, who can help
with a wide range of needs, such as:
towing, flat tire, fuel delivery, etc. For a
