WARNING
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive
your vehicle when under the influence of
alcohol or drugs that have impaired your
ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol
and certain drugs delay reaction time,
impair judgment and reduce coordina-
tion, which could lead to an accident that
could result in death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defen-
sively. Anticipate mistakes that other
drivers or pedestrians might make and
be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full
attention to driving. Anything that dis-
tracts the driver, such as adjusting con-
trols, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with
resulting death or serious injury to you,
your occupants or others.
■General precaution regarding chil-
dren’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle, and never allow children to have
or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle
or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is
also a danger that children may injure
themselves by playing with the windows,
the moon roof or panoramic moon roof,
or other features of the vehicle. In addi-
tion, heat build-up or extremely cold
temperatures inside the vehicle can be
fatal to children.

For safety and security
Adjust the angle of the seatback so
that you are sitting straight up and
so that you do not have to lean for-
ward to steer. (P.112)
Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so that
your arms bend slightly at the
elbow when gripping the steering
wheel. ( P.112)
Lock the head restraint in place
with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears.
(  P.116)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
(  P.25) Make sure that all occupants are wear-
ing their seat belts before driving the
vehicle. (
P.25)
Use a child restraint system appropri-
ate for the child until the child becomes
large enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt. ( P.43)
Make sure that you can see backward
clearly by adjusting the inside and out-
side rear view mirrors properly.
(  P.119, 120)
For safe driving
For safe driving, adjust the seat and

Correct driving posture
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
A
B
C
D
●Do not adjust the position of the
driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the
driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct pos-
ture from being achieved, and reduce
the effectiveness of the seat belt and
head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front
seats.
Objects placed under the front seats
may become jammed in the seat
tracks and stop the seat from locking
in place. This may lead to an accident
and the adjustment mechanism may
also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed limit
when driving on public roads.
●When driving over long distances,
take regular breaks before you start to
feel tired.
Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while
driving, do not force yourself to con-
tinue driving and take a break immedi-
ately.
Correct use of the seat belts

241-1. For safe use
Seat belts
Make sure that all occupants are
wearing their seat belts before driv-
ing the vehicle.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudd en swerving or an
accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat
belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one
person only. Do not use a seat belt for
more than one person at once, includ-
ing children.
●Lexus recommends th at children be
seated in the rear seat and always use
a seat belt and/or an appropriate child
restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating position,
do not recline the seat more than nec-
essary. The seat belt is most effective
when the occupants are sitting up
straight and well back in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under
your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and
snug across your hips.
■Pregnant women
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. ( P.25)
Women who are pregnant should posi-
tion the lap belt as low as possible over
the hips in the same manner as other
occupants, extending the shoulder belt
completely over the shoulder and avoid-
ing belt contact with the rounding of the
abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not
only the pregnant woman, but also the
fetus could suffer death or serious injury
as a result of sudden braking or a colli-
sion.
■People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. ( P.25)
■When children are in the vehicle
 P.43
■Seat belt damage and wear
●Do not damage the seat belts by allow-
ing the belt, plate, or buckle to be
jammed in the door.
●Inspect the seat belt system periodi-
cally. Check for cuts, fraying, and
loose parts. Do not use a damaged
seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged
seat belts cannot protect an occupant
from death or serious injury.

For safety and security
Extend the shoulder belt so that it
comes fully over the shoulder, but
does not come into contact with the
neck or slide off the shoulder.
 Position the lap belt as low as possi-
ble over the hips.
 Adjust the position of the seatback.
Sit up straight and well back in the
seat.
 Do not twist the seat belt.
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were princi-
pally designed for persons of adult size.
●Use a child restraint system appropriate
for the child, until the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the vehicle’s
seat belt. ( P.43)
●When the child becomes large enough to
properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt, fol-
low the instructions regarding seat belt
usage. ( P.24)
■Seat belt extender
If your seat belts cannot be fastened
securely because they are not long enough,
a personalized seat belt extender is avail-
able from your Lexus dealer free of charge.
■Rear seat belt
Use the seat belt after passing it through the
guide if the seat belt comes free from the
guide.
WARNING
●Ensure that the belt and plate are
locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function cor-
rectly, immediately contact your Lexus
dealer.
●Replace the seat assembly, including
the belts, if your vehicle has been
involved in a seriou s accident, even if
there is no obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, remove,
modify, disassemble or dispose of the
seat belts. Have any necessary repairs
carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inap-
propriate handling may lead to incor-
rect operation.
Correct use of the seat belts
WARNING
■Using a seat belt extender
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not wear the seat belt extender if
you can fasten the seat belt without the
extender.

261-1. For safe use
1To fasten the seat belt, push the
plate into the buckle until a click
sound is heard.
2 To release the seat belt, press the
release button .
■Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sud-
den stop or on impact. It may also lock if you
lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend so that
you can move around fully.
■Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is com-
pletely extended and then retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that position
and cannot be extended. This feature is
used to hold a child restraint system (CRS)
firmly. To free the belt again, fully retract the
belt and then pull the belt out once more.
1 Push the seat belt shoulder anchor
down while pressing the release
button .
2 Push the seat belt shoulder anchor
up while pressing the release but-
ton .
Move the height adjuster up and down as
needed until you hear a click.
WARNING
●Do not use the seat belt extender
when installing a child restraint system
because the belt will not securely hold
the child restraint system, increasing
the risk of death or serious injury in the
event of an accident.
●The personalized extender may not be
safe on another vehicle, when used by
another person, or at a different seat-
ing position other than the one origi-
nally intended.
NOTICE
■When using a seat belt extender
When releasing the se at belt, press on
the buckle release button on the
extender, not on the seat belt.
This helps prevent damage to the vehicle
interior and the extender itself.

WARNING
■Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of your
shoulder. The belt should be kept away
from your neck, but not falling off your
shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce
the amount of protection in an accident
and cause death or serious injuries in the
event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve
or accident.
