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.

dren’s safety

WARNING
●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
airbags inflate as they may interfere
with inflation of the airbags. Such
accessories may prevent the side
airbags from activating correctly, dis-
able 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.
Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to
malfunction.
●Do not touch any of the component
parts immediately after the SRS
airbags 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
airbags for the front passenger may
not deploy in the event of a collision.
■Modification and disposal of SRS
airbag 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, remova l, 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 or roof side rails
●Repairs or modifications of the front
fender, front bumper, or side of the
occupant compartment
●Installation of a grille guard (bull bars,
kangaroo bar, etc. ), snow plows,
winches or roof luggage carrier
●Modifications to the vehicle’s suspen-
sion system
●Installation of elec tronic devices such
as mobile two-way radios and CD
players
●Modifications to your vehicle for a per-
son with a physical disability

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.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine on 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 vehicle.
■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.
