1-1.For safe use
Use only floor mats designed specifi-
cally for vehicles of the same model
and model year as your vehicle. Fix
them securely in place onto the carpet.
1 Insert the retaining hooks (clips)
into the floor mat eyelets.
2 Turn the upper knob of each retain-
ing hook (clip) to secure the floor
mats in place.
Always align the marks .
The shape of the reta ining hooks (clips)
may differ from that shown in the illustra- tion.
Before driving
Observe the following before start-
ing off in the vehicle to ensure
safety of driving.
Installing floor mats
A
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause the driver’s floor mat to slip, possibly interfering with
the pedals while driving. An unexpect- edly high speed may result or it may become difficult to stop the vehicle. This
could lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■When installing the driver’s floor mat
●Do not use floor mats designed for other models or different model year vehicles, even if they are Lexus
Genuine floor mats.
●Only use floor mats designed for the driver’s seat.
●Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips) pro-
vided.
●Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.
●Do not place the floor mat bottom-side up or upside-down.
■Before driving
●Check that the floor mat is securely fixed in the correct place with all the
provided retaining hooks (clips). Be especially careful to perform this check after cleaning the floor.
●With the engine stopped and the shift position in P, fully
depress each pedal to the floor to make sure it does not interfere with the floor mat.

For safety and security
Adjust the angle of the seatback so
that you are sitting straight up and
so that you do not have to lean for-
ward to steer. ( P.138)
Adjust the seat so that you can
depress the pedals fully and so that
your arms bend slightly at the
elbow when gripping the steering
wheel. ( P.138)
Lock the head restraint in place
with the center of the head restraint
closest to the top of your ears.
( P.143)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
( P.29)
Make sure that all occupants are wear-
ing their seat belts before driving the
vehicle. ( P.31)
Use a child restraint system appropri-
ate for the child until the child becomes
large enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt. ( P.48)

●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving.
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the driver or passenger and the seatback.
A cushion may prevent correct pos- ture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and
head restraint.
●Do not place anything under the front seats.Objects placed under the front seats
may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident
and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
●Always observe the legal speed limit when driving on public roads.
●When driving over long distances, take
regular breaks before you start to feel tired. Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while
driving, do not force yourself to con- tinue driving and take a break immedi-
ately.

side rear view mirrors properly.
( P.146, 147)
Adjusting the mirrorsSeat belts
Make sure that all occupants are
wearing their seat belts before driv-
ing the vehicle.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident. Failure to do so may cause death or seri-ous injury.
■Wearing a seat belt
●Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●Always wear a seat belt properly.
●Each seat belt should be used by one
person only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at once, includ-ing children.
●Lexus recommends that children be
seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
●To achieve a proper seating position,
do not recline the seat more than nec- essary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up
straight and well back in the seats.
●Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
●Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.
