■“PASSENGER AIR BAG” indicator information
If any of the following problems occur, it is possible that there is a malfunction in the
system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
●Neither “ON” nor “OFF” comes on.
●The indicator does not change when the airbag manual on-off switch is
switched to “ON” or
“OFF”.
CAUTION
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install the 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 death or serious injury.
■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 death or serious injury.

CAUTION
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS airbag warning light not
come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are not
available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in death or serious
injury. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional immediately if this occurs.

4-1. Maintenance and care
RX350/270_EE
■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 apply water. 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.
●Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
(→P. 1 3 2 )
An electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function prop-
erly, resulting in death or severe 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.
