Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based on the 
US motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The airbag sensor assembly 
(ECU) controls airbag deployment based on information obtained from the sen-
sors etc. shown in the system components diagram above. This information 
includes crash severity and occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemi-
cal reaction in the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-toxic gas to help 
restrain the motion of the occupants.
 QIf the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
 OSlight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may 
be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the 
extremely high speed deployment (infla-
tion) by hot gases.
 OA loud noise and white powder will be 
emitted.
 OParts of the airbag module (steering 
wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as 
well as the front seats, parts of the front 
and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may 
be hot for several minutes. The airbag 
itself may also be hot.
 OThe windshield may crack.
 OThe hybrid system will be stopped and 
fuel supply to the engine will be stopped.

 OAll of the doors will be unlocked.

 OThe brakes and stop lights will be con-
trolled automatically. ( P.253)
 OThe interior lights will turn on automati-
cally. ( P.283)
 OThe emergency flashers will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.358)
 OFor Lexus Enform Safety Connect sub-
scribers, if any of the following situations 
occur, the system is designed to send an 
emergency call to the response center, 
notifying them of the vehicle’s location  (without needing to push the “SOS” but-
ton) and an agent will attempt to speak 
with the occupants to ascertain the level 
of emergency and assistance required. If 
the occupants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically treats the 
call as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency services.

•An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt pretensioner is activated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear- end collision.
 QSRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS 
front airbags)
 OThe SRS front airbags will deploy in the 
event of an impact that exceeds the set 
threshold level (the level of force corre-
sponding to an approximately 12 - 18 
mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with 
a fixed wall that does not move or 
deform). 
However, this threshold velocity will be 
considerably higher in the following situ-
ations:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a  parked vehicle or sign pole, which can 
move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride  collision, such as a collision in which the 
front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes 
under, the bed of a truck
