Installation of an RF-transmitter system
The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as:
Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
Cruise control system
Dynamic radar cruise control system
Anti-lock brake system
SRS airbag system
Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another

cial instructions regarding installation of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-
tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is

Scrapping your Lexus
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Lexus contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional, before you scrap your vehicle.

CAUTION
Seat adjustment
Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion
to reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply
restraint forces directly to the abdomen or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of
an accident.
Manual seat only: After adjusting the seat, make sure that the seat is
locked in position.

that it comes fully over the
shoulder, but does not
come into contact with the
neck or slide off the shoul-
der.
Position the lap belt as low
as possible over the hips.
Adjust the position of the
seatback. Sit up straight
and well back in the seat.
Do not twist the seat belt.

Seat belt comfort guide (outside rear seats)
If the shoulder belt sits close to
a person’s neck, slide the seat
belt comfort guide forward.
Seat belt pretensioners (front and outside rear seats)
The pretensioner helps the seat
belt to quickly restrain the
occupant by retracting the seat
belt when the vehicle is sub-
jected to certain types of severe
frontal collision.
The pretensioner may not acti-
vate in the event of a minor
frontal impact, a side impact or
a rear impact.
Adjusting the height of the belt (front seats)
Down
Up
Move the height adjuster up
and down as needed until you

Pre-crash seat belts (front seats of vehicles with pre-crash safety sys-
tem)
If the pre-crash sensor detects that a collision is unavoidable, the
pre-crash safety system will retract the seat belt, thus enhancing
the effectiveness of the seat belt pretensioner in a crash.
The same will happen if the driver makes an emergency braking or
loses control of the vehicle. (P. 229)
Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudden stop or on impact. It may
also lock if you lean forward or pull out the belt too quickly. Allow the belt
to fully retract, and then slowly extend the belt. If the belt cannot be pulled
out of the retractor, firmly pull the belt and release it. You will then be able
to smoothly pull the belt out of the retractor.
Pregnant women
People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way.
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat
belt in the proper way. (P. 74)
Women who are pregnant should position
the lap belt as low as possible over the
hips in the same manner as other occu-
pants. Extend the shoulder belt com-
pletely over the shoulder and position the
belt across the chest. Avoid belt contact
over the rounding of the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not
only a pregnant woman, but also the fetus
could suffer death or serious injury as a
result of sudden braking or a collision.
