WARNING
margin of safety. This distance is measured from the center of the steering wheel to
your breastbone. If your current driving position places you less than 10 in. (250 mm)
away from the driver airbag, you can change your driving position in several ways:
•
Move your seat to the rear as far as possible while still being able to reach the
pedals comfortably.
•
Slightly recline the seatback. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can
achieve the 10 in. (251 mm) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward,
simply by reclining the seatback somewhat. If reclining the seatback makes it hard
to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat
if your vehicle has that feature.
•
If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the airbag toward
your chest instead of your head and neck. The seat should be adjusted as recom-
mended by the NHTSA, while still being able to control the vehicle with the pedals
and steering wheel, and maintaining your view of the instrument panel controls.
●
If a seat belt extender has been connected to a
front seat belt buckle but the latch plate of the
seat belt has not been fastened to the seat belt
extender, the SRS airbag system will judge that
the occupant is wearing the seat belt even though
the seat belt has not been fastened. In this case,
the SRS front airbags may not deploy correctly in
a collision, resulting in death or serious injury. Be
sure to wear the seat belt correctly when using a
seat belt extender.
●
The SRS front passenger airbag 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 positioned as far possible from the airbag with the seatback
adjusted so that the passenger is sat upright.
●
Improperly seated and/or restrained infants and children can be killed or seriously
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.
