CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event
that the rear seat cannot be used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag
manual on-off system is set to off.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deploy-
ment (inflation) may cause serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is not installed on the front passenger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off system is set to on.
If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident, which may
result in serious injury or even death.

CAUTION
■Child restraint precautions
●Never use a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat when
the airbag manual on-off switch is on. ( P. 61)
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.
●A forward-facing child restraint system may be installed on the front passenger
seat only when it is unavoidable. A child restraint system that requires a top strap
should not be used in the front passenger seat since there is no top strap anchor
for the front passenger seat. Adjust the seatback as upright as possible and
always move the seat as far back as possible because the front passenger airbag
could inflate with considerable speed and force. Otherwise, the child may be
killed or seriously injured.
●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, front and rear pillars or roof side rails from which the
SRS side airbags or SRS curtain shield airbags deploy even if the child is seated in
the child restraint system. It is dangerous if the SRS side airbags and curtain shield
airbags inflate, and the impact could cause death or serious injury to the child.
●Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided by the
child restraint manufacturer and that the system is properly secured. If it is not
secured properly, it may cause death or serious injury to the child in the event of a
sudden stop or accident.
■When children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted
around a child’s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could
result in death.
If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut
the belt.
■When the child restraint system is not in use
●Keep the child restraint system properly secured on the seat even if it is not in use.
Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger compartment.
●If it is necessary to detach the child restraint system, remove it from the vehicle or
store it securely in the trunk. This will prevent it from injuring passengers in the
event of a sudden stop or accident.

CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual and fix
the child restraint system securely in place.
If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other passen-
gers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking or an
accident.
●If the driver’s seat interferes with the child
restraint system and prevents it from being
attached correctly, attach the child restraint
system to the right-hand rear seat (left-
hand drive vehicles) or the left-hand rear
seat (right-hand drive vehicles).
●Adjust the front passenger seat or rear
seats so that it does not interfere with the
child restraint system.
●When installing a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, move the seat as far back as possible.
Failure to do so may result in death or seri-
ous injury if the airbags deploy (inflate).

■When installing a child restraint system
●Never use a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat when the
airbag manual on-off switch is on. ( P. 61)
The force of the rapid inflation of the front
passenger airbag can cause death or seri-
ous injury to children in the event of an
accident.
●There is a label(s) on the passenger side
sun visor, indicating it is forbidden to attach
a rear-facing child restraint system to the
front passenger seat.
Details of the label(s) are shown in the illus-
tration below.

Maintenance and care
LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
■Caring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleaning the interior of the vehicle at least twice a year to main-
tain the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type cleaners available. Use a sponge or
brush to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not use water. Wipe dirty sur-
faces and let them dry. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as
possible.
■Seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also check the
belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
CAUTION
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehicle, such as on the floor, in the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) air vents, and in the trunk.
Doing so may cause the hybrid battery, electrical components, etc. to malfunc-
tion or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
( P. 51)
An electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function prop-
erly, resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner. The instrument panel may reflect off the
windshield, obstructing the driver’s view and leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the leather areas of the instrument panel
Do not use any protective agents (coatings etc). Doing so may cause the instru-
ment panel to reflect onto the windshield, obstructing the front view and possibly
causing an accident.

CAUTION
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and flat area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the area around the brakes immediately after the
vehicle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven, the wheels and the area around the brakes may
be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or other body parts may
result in burns.
●Connect the valve and hose securely with the tire installed on the vehicle.
●If the hose is not properly connected to the valve, air leakage may occur or seal-
ant may be sprayed out.
●If the hose comes off the valve while inflating the tire, there is a risk that the hose
will move abruptly due to air pressure.
●After inflation of the tire has completed, the sealant may splatter when the hose is
disconnected or some air is let out of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure to repair th e tire. If the procedure is not followed,
the sealant may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it is being repaired, as there is a chance of it burst-
ing while the repair operation is being performed. If you notice any cracks or
deformation of the tire, turn off the comp ressor switch and stop the repair opera-
tion immediately.
●The kit may overheat if operated for a long period of time. Do not operate the
compressor continuously for more than 35 minutes.
●Parts of the kit become hot during operation. Be careful handling the kit during
and after operation. Do not touch the metal part around the connecting area
between the bottle and compressor. It will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed warning sticker to an area other than the one
indicated. If the sticker is attached to an area where an SRS airbag is located,
such as the pad of the steering wheel, it may prevent the SRS air bag from operat-
ing properly.
