1-2. Child safety
For safety and security
Install the available child restraint sys-
tem in vehicle upon confirming the fol-
lowing items.
■Standards for child restraint sys-
tems
Use a child restraint system that con-
forms to ECE R44*1.
The following approval mark is dis-
played on child restraint systems which
are conformed.
Check for an approval mark attached
to the child restraint system.
Example of the displayed regulation
number
ECE R44 approval mark*2
The weight range of the child who is
applicable for an ECE R44 approval
mark is indicated.
*1: ECE R44 is a U.N. regulation for child
restraint systems.
*2: The displayed mark may differ depend-
ing on the product.
WARNING
●Lexus strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that con-forms to the weight and size of the
child, installed on the rear seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained
in the rear seat than in the front seat.
●Holding a child in your or someone else’s arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the
child can be crushed against the wind- shield or between the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
■Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not prop- erly fixed in place, the child or other pas-
sengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sud- den swerving, or an accident.
●If the vehicle were to receive a strong
impact from an accident, etc., it is pos- sible that the child restraint system has damage that is not readily visible. In
such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
●Depending on the child restraint sys-tem, installation may be difficult or
impossible. In those cases, check whether the child restraint system is suitable for installment in the vehicle.
( P.54, 57) Be sure to install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child restraint system fixing
method in this manual, as well as the operation manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
●Keep the child restraint system prop-
erly secured on the seat even if it is not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger
compartment.
●If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the vehicle.

patibility. Confirm in accordance with the child restraint system compatibility table.
( P.54, 58)
The child restraint system which conforms to the standard of ECE R44 is catego-
rized into 5 groups according to the weight of the child.
*: The age range is a standard approximation. Choose according to the weight of the child.
■Types of child restraint system installation methods

■Confirming the possible installa-
tion seating positions and the Mass
Group for the seat belt installation
type child restraint systems
1 Confirm the corresponding [Mass
group] from the weight of the child
( P.50)
(Ex. 1) When the weight is 12 kg (27
lb.), [Mass group 0+]

with SEAT BELT - Compatibility
table].
■Child restraint systems fastened with SEAT BELT - Compatibility table
If your child restraint system is of “universal” category, you can install it on the posi-
tions mentioned by U or UF in the table below (UF is for forward-facing child
restraint systems only). Child restraint systems category and mass group can be
found in the child restraint system manual.
If your child restraint system is not of the “universal” category (or if you cannot find
information in the table below), please refer to the child restraint system “vehicle
list” for compatibility information or ask the retailer of your child seat.
WARNING
●If the driver’s seat interferes with the child restraint system and prevents it from being attached correctly, attach
the child restraint system to the right- hand rear seat (left-hand drive vehi-cles) or the left-hand rear seat (right-
hand drive vehicles). ( P.54, 58)
●Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child restraint system.

■Confirming the Mass group and
Size class for ECE R44 ISOFIX
corresponding child restraint sys-
tems
1 Confirm the corresponding [Mass
group] from the weight of the child
( P.50)
(Ex. 1) When the weight is 12 kg (27
lb.), [Mass group 0+]
(Ex. 2) When the weight is 15 kg
(34 lb.), [Mass group I]
2 Confirming Size class
Select the Size class corresponding
to [Mass group] confirmed in step 1

3-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
■Trunk opener switch
Press the trunk opener switch.
■Smart entry & start system
While carrying the electronic key,
press the button.
When both side doors are unlocked
using one of the following methods, the
trunk can be opened without the elec-
tronic key:
• Entry function
• Wireless remote control
• Door lock switches
• Automatic door unlocking system
• Mechanical key
WARNING
●When closing the trunk lid, take extra care to prevent your fingers etc. from being caught.
●When closing the trunk lid, make sure to press it lightly on its outer surface. If
the trunk grip is used to fully close the trunk lid, it may result in hands or arms being caught.
●Do not pull on the trunk damper stay
to close the trunk, and do not hang on the trunk damper stay. Doing so may cause hands to be
caught or the trunk damper stay to break, causing an accident.
●Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Lexus parts to the trunk
lid. Such additional weight on the trunk lid may cause the lid to suddenly shut again after it is opened.
NOTICE
■Trunk damper stays
The trunk is equipped with damper stays
that hold the trunk lid in place.
Observe the following precautions. Fail-
ure to do so may cause damage to the
trunk damper stay , resulting in mal-
function.
●Do not attach any foreign objects, such as stickers, plastic sheets, or adhesives
to the damper stay rod.
●Do not touch the damper stay rod with gloves or other fabric items.

Maintenance and care
■Effects of incorrect tire inflation pres- sure
Driving with incorrect tire inflation pressure may result in the following:
●Reduced fuel economy
●Reduced driving comfort and poor han-dling
●Reduced tire life due to wear
●Reduced safety
●Damage to the drivetrain
If a tire needs frequent inflating, have it checked by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
■Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure
When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:
●Check only when the tires are cold.If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours or has not been driven for
more than 1.5 km or 1 mile, you will get an accurate cold tire inflation pressure read-ing.
●Always use a tire pressure gauge.It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly
inflated based only on its appearance.
●It is normal for the tire inflation pressure
to be higher after driving as heat is gen- erated in the tire. Do not reduce tire infla-tion pressure after driving.
●Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is balanced.
Tire inflation pressure
Make sure to maintain proper tire
inflation pressure. Tire inflation
pressure should be checked at least
once per month. However, Lexus
recommends that tire inflation
pressure be checked once every
two weeks.
WARNING
■Proper inflation is critical to save tire performance
Keep your tires properly inflated. If the tires are not properly inflated, the following conditions may occur which
could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
●Excessive wear
●Uneven wear
●Poor handling
●Possibility of blowouts resulting from overheated tires
●Air leaking from between tire and
wheel
●Wheel deformation and/or tire dam- age
●Greater possibility of tire damage while driving (due to road hazards,
expansion joints, sh arp edges in the road, etc.)
NOTICE
■When inspecting and adjusting tire inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on. If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or mois-
ture may get into the valve and cause an air leak, resulting in decreased tire infla-tion pressure.
