SEAT BELTS
Seat belt precautions
Lexus recommends that the driver and passengers in the
vehicle be properly restrained at all times with the seat belts
provided. Failure to do so could increase the chance of injury
and / or the severity of injury in accidents.
Baby or small child. Use a child restraint system which fits
your vehicle. See “Child restraint” for details.
Child. If a child is too large for a child restraint system, the child
should sit in the rear seat and must be restrained using the
vehicle’s seat belts. According to accident statistics, the child
is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the
front seat. Do not allow the child to stand up or kneel on the
seat. If the shoulder belt falls across the child’s neck or face,
move the child to the center position and use the center lap
belt.
Pregnant woman. Lexus recommends the use of a seat belt.
Ask your doctor for specific recommendations. The lap belt
should be worn securely and as low as possible over the hips
and not on the waist.
Injured person. Lexus recommends the use of a seat belt.
Depending on the injury, however, first check with your doctor.CAUTION:
Persons should ride in their seats properly wearing their
seat belts whenever the vehicle is moving. Otherwise,
they are much more likely to suffer serious bodily injury
in the event of sudden braking or a collision.
When using the seat belts, observe the following:
Use the belt for only one person at a time. Do not use
a single belt for two or more people − even children.
Avoid reclining the seatbacks too much. The seat belts
provide maximum protection when the seatbacks are in
the upright position. (See “Adjusting seatback angle”.)
Be careful not to damage the belt webbing or hardware.
Take care that they do not get caught or pinched in the
seat or doors.
Inspect the belt system periodically. Check for cuts,
fraying, and loose parts. Damaged parts should be
replaced. Do not disassemble or modify the system.
Keep the belts clean and dry. If they need cleaning, use
a mild soap solution or lukewarm water. Never use
bleach, dye, or abrasive cleaners − they may severely
weaken the belts.
Replace the belt assembly if it has been used in a
severe impact. The entire assembly should be replaced
even if damage is not obvious.

(power type)
To adjust the shoulder anchor position, press the upper or
lower part of the control switch located on the door. When the
switch is released, the shoulder anchor will stop at that
position.
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the belt is positioned across your
shoulder, as close to your neck as possible; not on your
upper arm or neck. Failure to do so could reduce the
amount of protection in an accident and increase the
chance of injury.To release the belt, press the buckle release button and
allow the belt to retract.
If the belt does not retract smoothly, pull it out and check for
kinks or twists. Then make sure it remains untwisted as it
retracts.

If the belt is not long enough for you, hold the tab at a right angle
to the belt and pull on the tab.
CAUTION:
After inserting the tab, make sure the connection is secure
and that the belt is not twisted.
