LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Seat belt pretensioners (front and second outboard seats)
The pretensioner helps the seat
belt to quickly restrain the occu-
pant by retracting the seat belt
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal col-
lision or a vehicle rollover. The pretensioner may not activate
in the event of a minor frontal
impact, a side impact or a rear
impact.
Pre-collision seat belts (front seats of vehicles with pre-collision system)
If the system determines that a collision is unavoidabl e, the front seat belts
will retract before the collision. (  P. 357)■ Adjusting the height of the belt (front and second outboard seats)

Emergency locking retractor (ELR)
The retractor will lock the belt during a sudd en stop or on impact. It may also lock if
you lean forward too quickly. A slow, easy motion will allow the belt to extend so
that you can move around fully. ■
Automatic locking retractor (ALR)
When a passenger’s shoulder belt is comp letely extended and then retracted even
slightly, the belt is locked in that positi on and cannot be extended. This feature is
used to hold the child restra int system (CRS) firmly. To free the belt again, fully
retract the belt and then pull the belt out once more. (  P. 151)■

■
Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were principally designed for persons of adult size. ●
Use a child restraint system appropriate for the child, until the child becomes
large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (  P. 146)●
When the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt,
follow the instructions on P. 91 regarding seat belt usage. Put your fingers between the seat belt and
the holder.
Pull the seat belt forcefully in the direction of
the arrow and then release it to unlock.

CAUTION
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failing to do so may cause death or serious 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, including children. ●
Lexus recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat
belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system. ●
Do not recline the seat any more than necessary to achieve a proper seating
position. 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. If your seat belts cannot be fastened securely
because they are not long enough, a person-
alized seat belt extender is available from
your Lexus dealer free of charge.

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
Pregnant women
■
People suffering illness
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt in the proper way. ■
When children are in the vehicle
Do not allow children to play with the se at 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. ■
Seat belt pretensioners ●
Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat. Doing so
will disperse the passenger ’s weight, which prevents the sensor from detecting
the passenger’s weight proper ly. As a result, the seat belt pretensioner for the
front passenger’s seat may not activate in the event of a a collision.●
If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS warning light will come on. In that case,
the seat belt cannot be used again and must be replaced at your Lexus dealer.Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt
in the proper way. (  P. 91)
Women who are pregnant should position
the lap belt as low as possible over the hips in
the same manner as other occupants. Extend
the shoulder belt completely over the shoul-
der and position the belt across the chest.
Avoid belt contact over the rounding of the
abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not only a
pregnant woman, but al so the fetus could suf-
fer death or serious inju ry as a result of sud-
den braking, sudden swerving or a collision.

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
Adjustable shoulder anchor
Always make sure the shoulder belt is po sitioned across the center of your shoul-
der. The belt should be kept away from your neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
Failure to do so could reduce the amount of protection in an accident and cause
death or serious injuries in the event of a sudden stop, sudden swerve or accident.
(  P. 94)■
When using the third center seat belt
■
Seat belt damage and wear ●
Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be jammed
in the door. ●
Inspect the seat belt system periodically . Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts.
Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat belt cannot
protect an occupant from death or serious injury. ●
Ensure that the belt and tab are locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Lexus
dealer. ●
Replace the seat assembly, including the be lts, if your vehicle has been involved
in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage. ●
Do not attempt to install, remove, modi fy, disassemble or dispose of the seat
belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inappropri-
ate handling of the pretensi oner may prevent it from op erating properly resulting
in death or serious injury. Do not use the third center seat belt with
either buckle released. Fastening only one of
the buckles may result in death or serious
injury in case of sudden braking, sudden
swerving or an accident.
