FRONT SEATS
Seat adjustment precautions
Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot pedals, steering
wheel and instrument panel controls are within easy reach
of the driver.
CAUTION!
Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving
as the seat may unexpectedly move and cause the
driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Be careful not to hit the seat against a passenger,
luggage or the rear seat.
NOTICE
Do not operate the control switch in more than one
dimension at a time. It may cause electrical overload.

Adjusting seat position
Move the control switch in the desired direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the seat in that position. Do not
place anything under the seat. It might interfere with the seat
movement.
Adjusting seatback angle
Move the control switch in the desired direction.
Releasing the switch will stop the seatback in that position.
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during
a collision, avoid reclining the seatback any more
than needed. The seat belts provide maximum
protection when the driver and the passenger are
sitting up straight and well back in the seats. If you
are reclined, the lap belt may slide past your hips and
apply restraint forces directly to the abdomen.
Therefore, in the event of a frontal collision, the risk
of personal injury may increase with increasing
recline of the seatback.

INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR
Pushing the switch changes the mode between
ªAUTOº and ªDAYº.
The indicator comes on when the ªAUTOº mode is selected.
ªDAYº mode: The mirror surface is normal.
ªAUTOº mode: If the mirror detects light from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you, the mirror surface
darkens slightly to reduce the reflected light.
When the inside rear view mirror surface changes, the
outside rear view mirror surfaces will also become darker.
When the ignition key is inserted and turned on, the inside
rear view mirror always turns on in the ªAUTOº mode.
Adjust it before driving so that the rear view is the best.
When the outside air temperature is low, it may take a little
longer for the mirror to darken in response to the detection
of headlights.
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 ªChild restraintº 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 either rear or front seats. If the shoulder belt falls across
the child's neck or face, have the child sit slightly closer to the
buckle so that the belt lays across the shoulder.
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, first check with your doctor for
specific recommendations.
