CAUTION

SRS airbag precautions

The SRS front passenger airbag also deploys with considerable force, and can
cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very close to
the airbag. The front passenger seat should be as far from the airbag as possi-
ble with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.

Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or seri-
ously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small to use
a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Lexus
strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats
of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and
children than the front passenger seat. (


Do not allow a child to stand in front of
the SRS front passenger airbag unit or sit
on the knees of a front passenger.

Do not allow the front seat occupants to
hold items on their knees.

Do not lean against the door, the roof side
rail or the front, side and rear pillars.
