For safety and security
Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the human
body is included in exhaust gases if
inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases
enter the vehicle and may lead to an
accident caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.
■Important points while driving
●Keep the trunk lid closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in the vehi-
cle even when the trunk lid is closed,
open the windows and have the vehi-
cle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
■When parking
●If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated
area or a closed area, such as a
garage, stop the engine.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine running for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided,
park the vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter
the vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running in an
area with snow build-up, or where it is
snowing. If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the engine is running,
exhaust gases may collect and enter
the vehicle.
■Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be checked
periodically. If there is a hole or crack
caused by corrosion, damage to a joint
or abnormal exhaust noise, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected and repaired
by your Lexus dealer.

491-2. Child safety
1
For safety and security
WARNING
●Never install a rear-facing child
restraint system on the front passen-
ger seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF”
indicator light is illuminated. In the
event of an accident, the force of the
rapid inflation of the front passenger
airbag can cause death or serious
injury to the child if the rear-facing
child restraint system is installed on the
front passenger seat.
●When unavoidably installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, make sure to
pass the seat belt th rough the seat belt
guide and fasten the button.
●A forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is
unavoidable. A child restraint system
that requires a top tether strap should
not be used in the front passenger seat
since there is no top tether strap
anchor for the front passenger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint sys-
tem may be installed on the front pas-
senger seat only when it is
unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on
the front passenger seat, adjust the
seatback to the most upright position,
move the seat as fa r back as possible,
and raise the seat to the highest posi-
tion, even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator light is illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with the
installation of the child restraint sys-
tem, and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in
the upper most position.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or the area of the seat
from which the SRS side airbags
deploy even if the child is seated in the
child restraint system. It is dangerous if
the SRS side airbags inflate, and the
impact could cause death or serious
injury to the child.
●When a booster seat is installed,
always ensure that th e shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the
child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but
not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder.
●Use child restraint system suitable to
the age and size of the child and install
it to the rear seat.

occupants to assess the level of emer-
gency. If the occupants are unable to
communicate, the agent automatically
treats the call as an emergency, con-
tacts the nearest emergency services
provider to describe the situation, and
requests that assistance be sent to the
location.
■Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect
can work with local authorities to assist
them in locating and recovering the Safety Connect LED light Indi-
