The “AIRBAG OFF” indicator light should be illuminated when
the ignition key is “ON” and the child is in the child restraint
system after following these procedures. The “AIRBAG OFF”
indicator light indicates the SRS front passenger airbag and
side airbag on the passenger side will not deploy. If the
“AIRBAG ON” indicator light is illuminated, remove the child
restraint system and reinstall it with the ignition key in the
“ACC” or “LOCK” position. If the “AIRBAG ON” indicator light
still remains illuminated when the ignition key is turned to the
“ON” position, then the SRS front passenger airbag and side
airbag on the passenger side may deploy in an accident. Do
not drive the vehicle in this condition. Remove the child
restraint system and contact your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
When it is unavoidable to install the forwardfacing
child restraint system on the front passenger seat,
install
the child restraint system on the front passenger
seat in the proper order. Otherwise, the front passenger
occupant classification system can not detect the
presence of the child restraint system and the front
passenger airbag and side airbag on the front
passenger seat could deploy.
