CAUTION
A forward±facing child restraint system should be
allowed to be put on the front seat only when it is
unavoidable. Always move the seat as far back as
possible, because the force of a deploying airbag could
cause death or serious injury to the child. Do not allow
the child to lean over the front door or around the front
door even if the child is seated in a child restraint
system. It is dangerous if the side airbag inflates, and
the impact could cause death or serious injury to the
child.

1961. Sit the child on a booster seat. Run the lap and
shoulder belt through or around the booster seat and
child following the instructions provided by its
manufacturer and insert the tab into the buckle.
Make sure the shoulder belt is correctly across the
child's shoulder and that the lap belt is positioned as low
as possible on child's hips. See ºSeat beltsº on page 133
for details.
CAUTION
Always make sure the shoulder belt is positioned
across the center of child's shoulder. The belt should
be kept away from child's neck, but not falling off
child's shoulder. Failure to do so could reduce the
amount of protection in an accident and cause
serious injuries in a collision.
Both high±positioned lap belts and
loose±fitting belts could cause serious injuries
due to sliding under the lap belt during a
collision or other unintended result. Keep the
lap belt positioned as low on hips as possible.
For child's safety, do not place the shoulder
belt under child's arm.
After inserting the tab, make sure the tab and
buckle are locked and that the lap and shoulder
portions of the belt are not twisted.
Do not insert coins, clips, etc. in the buckle as
this may prevent you from properly latching the
tab and buckle.
If the seat belt does not function normally,
immediately contact your Lexus dealer. Do not
use the seat until the seat belt is fixed. It cannot
protect your child from injury.

DRIVING POSITION MEMORY
SYSTEM
The micro computer can memorize the position of the
driver's seat, and the positions of the tilt and telescopic
steering, and outside rear view mirrors. Two different
driving position profiles can be entered into the
computer's memory.
Recording a driving position in the computer's memory
can only be done when the ignition key is in the ºONº
position and the selector lever is in the ºPº position.

steering and outside rear view mirrors to the desired
position.
2. While pushing the ºSETº button, push button º1º
or º2º until the signal beeps.The beep sound means that the positions are recorded
in the computer's memory.
By repeating these two steps and pressing the
remaining button, the driving position for another driver
can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select the desired
position and perform step 2. The previous memory will
be erased and the new position will be set.

position, the easiest way is to first activate the
memorized position, then make the desired changes
