401-1. For safe use
GS350/250_EE (OM30C36E)The pretensioner helps the seat
belt to quickly restrain the occu-
pant by retracting the seat belt
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal
collision.
The front seat pretensioners also
activate when the vehicle is sub-
jected to certain types of severe
side collision.
The pretensioner does not activate
in the event of a minor frontal
impact, a minor side impact, a rear
impact or a vehicle rollover.
If the pre-crash sensor detects that a collision is unavoidable, the
pre-crash safety system will retract the seat belt before the collision
occurs. (P. 341)

For safety and security
GS350/250_EE (OM30C36E)The main SRS airbag system components are shown above. The
SRS airbag system is controlled by the airbag sensor assembly. As
the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in the inflators quickly fills
the airbags with non-toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the
occupants.
CAUTION
SRS airbag precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the SRS airbags.
Failure to do so may cause death or serious injury.
The driver and all passengers in the vehicle must wear their seat belts
properly.
The SRS airbags are supplemental devices to be used with the seat belts.
The SRS driver airbag deploys with considerable force, and can cause
death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag.
Since the risk zone for the driver’s airbag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.)
of inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag
provides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured
from the center of the steering wheel to your breastbone. If you sit less
than 250 mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your driving position in
several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the ped-
als comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat.
Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250 mm
(10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, simply
by reclining the back of the seat somewhat. If reclining the back of your
seat 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 recommended above, while still maintain-
ing control of the foot pedals, steering wheel, and your view of the instru-
ment panel controls.

GS350/250_EE (OM30C36E)
For safety and security
The intrusion sensor detects intruders or movement in the vehi-
cle.
The tilt sensor detects changes in vehicle inclination, such as
when the vehicle is towed away. (if equipped)
This system is designed to deter and prevent vehicle theft but does
not guarantee absolute security against all intrusions.
Setting the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
The intrusion sensor and tilt sensor will be set automatically
when the alarm is set. (P. 86)
Canceling the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
If you are leaving pets or other moving things inside the vehicle,
make sure to stop the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor before set-
ting the alarm, as they will respond to movement inside the vehi-
cle.
Turn the engine switch off.
Press the intrusion sensor
