■Pop Up Hood operational conditions
The Pop Up Hood will operate when the
vehicle detects an impact such as the fol-
lowing:
●The front bumper detects a frontal impact
equivalent to or grea ter than that of a
pedestrian while the vehicle being driven
within the operational speed range of
approximately 16 to 34 mph (25 to 55
km/h). (The system is operated by an
impact of threshold le vel or greater, even
in the case of a minor collision that may
not leave a trace on the front bumper.
Also, depending on the impact condi-
tions or vehicle speed, the system may
operate by a collision with a light or small
object or a small animal.)
●In other situations such as the following,
the system may operate when an impact
is applied to the lowe r part of the vehicle
or front bumper:
• Colliding with a curb
• Falling into a deep hole
•Landing hard
• Hitting the slope of a parking lot, an undulating road, a protruding object or
falling object
■Conditions under which the Pop Up
Hood may not operate properly
●If a pedestrian collides with the right or
left corner of the front bumper or the side
of the vehicle. As such impacts may be
difficult to detect, the system may not
operate.
●If the vehicle speed is not detected cor-
rectly, such as if the vehicle is sliding side-
ways, the system may not operate
properly.
■Conditions under which the Pop Up
Hood will not operate
The Pop Up Hood will not operate in the
following situations:
●Colliding with a lying person
●A frontal impact applied to the front
bumper while driving at speeds outside
of the operational speed range
●A side impact or rear impact
●A vehicle rollover (In some accident situ-
ations, the Pop Up Hood may operate.)
WARNING
■When the Pop Up Hood is operated
●Do not pull the hood lock release lever.
Doing so after the Pop Up Hood has
operated will further raise the hood
and may cause an injury. Do not drive
with the hood raised, as doing so may
block the driver’s vision, possibly caus-
ing an accident.
●Do not forcibly push down the hood.
As the popped up hood cannot be
lowered by hand, doing so may deform
the hood or cause an injury.
●If the Pop Up Hood has operated, have
it replaced by your Lexus dealer. If the
Pop Up Hood has operated, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and contact
your Lexus dealer.
●Do not touch the lifters immediately
after the Pop Up Hood has operated,
as the lifters may be hot and burn you.
NOTICE
■Pop Up Hood precautions
●Make sure to close the hood before
driving, as the system may not operate
properly if the hood is not fully closed.
●Make sure that all 4 tires are of the
specified size and inflated to the speci-
fied tire pressure. If tires of a different
size are used, the system may not
operate properly.
●If something has hit the area around
the front bumper, the sensors may be
damaged even if the Pop Up Hood has
not operated. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
●Do not remove or repair the parts or
wiring of the Pop Up Hood, as doing
so may cause accidental operation or
prevent the system from operating
properly. If repair or replacement is
necessary, contact your Lexus dealer.

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 seri-
ous injury.
●Wear the seat belt properly.
●Make sure the front passenger’s seat
belt plate has not been left inserted
into the buckle before someone sits in
the front passenger seat.

401-1. For safe use
WARNING
●Make sure the “AIR BAG OFF” indica-
tor light is not illuminated when using
the seat belt extender for the front pas-
senger seat. If the “AIR BAG OFF”
indicator light is illuminated, discon-
nect 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 illu minated. If you use
the seat belt extender while the “AIR
BAG OFF” indicator light is illumi-
nated, 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 or armrest).
●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 passen-
ger to sit up straight, well back in the
seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat
belt worn correctly. If the “AIR BAG
OFF” indicator still remains illumi-
nated, 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.46)
●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.
●Do not modify or replace the uphol-
stery of the front seat.

■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.46)
*6: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on how to install the child
restraint system properly. ( P.44)

Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the human
body is included in exhaust gases if
inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases
enter the vehicle and may lead to an
accident caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.
■Important points while driving
●Keep the trunk lid closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in the vehi-
cle even when the trunk lid is closed,
open the windows and have the vehi-
cle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
■When parking
●If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated
area or a closed area, such as a
garage, stop the engine tem>.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine running ing> for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided,
park the vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter
the vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running
in an area
with snow build-up, or where it is
snowing. If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the engine is running
, exhaust
gases may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.
■Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be checked
periodically. If there is a hole or crack
caused by corrosion, damage to a joint
or abnormal exhaust noise, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected and repaired
by your Lexus dealer.

471-2. Child safety

For safety and security
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Never install a re ar-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-facing 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, adjust the seatback to the most
upright position, move the seat as far
back as possible, and raise the seat to
the highest position, even if the “AIR
BAG OFF” indicator light is illumi-
nated.
If the head restraint interferes with the
installation of the ch ild restraint system,
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in
the upper most position.
●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,
front or rear 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 serious injury to the child.
