data collected, used and shared by
Lexus, please visit

.
This vehicle is equipped with an event
data recorder (EDR). The main pur-
pose of an EDR is to record, in certain
crash or near crash-like situations,
such as an air bag deployment or hit-
ting a road obstacle, data that will assist
in understanding how a vehicle’s sys-
tems performed. The EDR is designed
to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a
short period of time, typically 30 sec-
onds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
 How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
 Whether or not the driver and pas-
senger safety belts were buck-
led/fastened;
 How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and,
 How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better
understanding of the circumstances in
which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by
your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data are recorded
by the EDR under normal driving con-
ditions and no personal data (e.g.,
name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties,
such as law enforcement, could com-
bine the EDR data with the type of per-
sonally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR,
special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is
needed. In addition to the vehicle man-
ufacturer, other parties, such as law
enforcement, that have the special
equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR.

Disclosure of the EDR data
Lexus will not disclose the data recorded in
an EDR to a third party except when:
• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner
(or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is
obtained
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government
agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
However, if necessary, Lexus may:
• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance
• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing
information about the specific vehicle or
vehicle owner

sioner devices in your Lexus contain

WARNING
●Do not attach anything to or lean any-
thing against areas such as the dash-
board, steering wheel pad and lower
portion of the instrument panel.
These items can become projectiles
when the SRS driver, front passenger
and knee airbags deploy.
●Do not attach anything to areas such
as a door, windshield, side window,
front or rear pillar, roof side rail and
assist grip.
●Do not hang coat hangers or other
hard objects on the coat hooks. All of
these items could become projectiles
and may cause death or serious injury,
should the SRS curtain shield airbags
deploy.
●If a vinyl cover is put on the area where
the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be
sure to remove it.
●Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the SRS side air-
bags inflate as they may interfere with
inflation of the SRS airbags. Such
accessories may prevent the side air-
bags from activating correctly, disable
the system or cause the side airbags to
inflate accidentally, resulting in death
or serious injury.
●Do not strike or apply significant levels
of force to the area of the SRS airbag
components or the front doors.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to
malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component
parts immediately after the SRS air-
bags have deployed (inflated) as they
may be hot.
●If breathing becomes difficult after the
SRS airbags have deployed, open a
door or window to allow fresh air in, or
leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so.
Wash off any residue as soon as possi-
ble to prevent skin irritation.
●If the areas where the SRS airbags are
stored, such as the steering wheel pad
and front and rear pillar garnishes, are
damaged or cracked, have them
replaced by your Lexus dealer.
●Do not place anything, such as a cush-
ion, on the front passenger’s seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s
weight, which prevents the sensor
from detecting the passenger’s weight
properly. As a result, the SRS front air-
bags for the front passenger may not
deploy in the event of a collision.
■Modification and disposal of SRS air-
bag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-
form any of the following modifications
without consulting your Lexus dealer.
The SRS airbags may malfunction or
deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing
death or serious injury.
●Installation, removal, disassembly and
repair of the SRS airbags
●Repairs, modifications, removal or
replacement of the steering wheel,
instrument panel, dashboard, seats or
seat upholstery, front, side and rear pil-
lars, roof side rails, front door panels,
front door trims or front door speakers
●Modifications to the front door panel
(such as making a hole in it)

381-1. For safe use
WARNING
●Make sure the “PASSENGER AIR
BAG OFF” indicator light is not illumi-
nated when using the seat belt
extender for the front passenger seat.
If the “PASSENGER AIR BAG ON”
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 “PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated. If you use the seat
belt extender while the “PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illu-
minated, 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 “PASSEN-
GER 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 “PASSENGER AIR BAG
ON” indicator light is illuminated. If the
“PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator is illuminated, ask the passenger
to sit up straight, well back in the seat,
feet on the floor, and with the seat belt
worn correctly. If the “PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF” indicator still remains
illuminated, 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 restraint system on
the front passenger seat, install the
child restraint system on the front pas-
senger seat in the proper order.
(  P.45)
●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 classification 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.
●Do not place anything between the
console box and front passenger seat.
Otherwise, the system may not detect
the front passenger properly, leading
to improper operation of the airbags.

WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Never install a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passen-
ger seat even if the “PASSENGER
AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illu-
minated. In the event of an accident,
the force of the rapid inflation 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 passenger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger 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 sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is
unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, adjust the
seatback angle to the most upright
position, move the seat to the rearmost
position, and raise the seat to the
upper most position, even if the “PAS-
SENGER AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
●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 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.
