For safety and security
Extend the shoulder belt so that it
comes fully over the shoulder, but
does not come into contact with the
neck or slide off the shoulder.
Position the lap belt as low as possi- ble over the hips.
Adjust the position of the seatback.
Sit up straight and well back in the
seat.
Do not twist the seat belt.
■Child seat belt usage
The seat belts of your vehicle were princi-
pally designed for pe rsons 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.45)
●When the child becomes large enough to
properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt, fol-
low the instructions regarding seat belt
usage. ( P.26)
■Seat belt extender
If your seat belts cannot be fastened
securely because they are not long enough,
a personalized seat belt extender is avail-
able from your Lexus dealer free of charge.
WARNING
■Seat belt damage and wear
●Do not damage the seat belts by allow-
ing the belt, plate, or buckle to be
jammed in the door.
●Inspect the seat be lt system periodi-
cally. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose
parts. Do not use a damaged seat belt
until it is replaced. Damaged seat belts
cannot protect an occupant from
death or serious injury.
●Ensure that the belt and plate are
locked and the belt is not twisted.
If the seat belt do es not function cor-
rectly, immediately contact your Lexus
dealer.
●Replace the seat assembly, including
the belts, if your vehicle has been
involved in a serious accident, even if
there is no obvious damage.
●Do not attempt to install, remove,
modify, disassemble or dispose of the
seat belts. Have an y necessary repairs
carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inap-
propriate handling may lead to incor-
rect operation.
Correct use of the seat belts
WARNING
■Using a seat belt extender
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of in jury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not wear the seat belt extender if
you can fasten the seat belt without the
extender.

RX350L: Rear side airbags (outboard second-row seats)
Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANC ED AIRBAGS designed based on the US
motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS20 8). The airbag sensor assembly (ECU)
controls airbag deployment based on information obtain ed from the sensors etc.
shown in the system components diagram above. This information includes crash
severity and occupant information. As th e airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in
the inflators quickly fills the airbags with no n-toxic gas to help restrain the motion of
the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may
be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the
extremely high speed deployment (infla-
tion) by hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will be
emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steering
wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as
well as the front seat s, parts of the front
and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may
be hot for several minutes. The airbag
itself may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●All of the doors will be unlocked.
( P.98)
●The brakes and stop lights will be con-
trolled automatically. ( P.266)
●The interior lights will turn on automati-
cally. (P.301)
●The emergency flashers will turn on auto-
matically. ( P.384)
●Fuel supply to the engine will be stopped.
(P.392)
●For Lexus Enform Safety Connect sub-
scribers, if any of the following situations
occur, the system is designed to send an
emergency call to the response center,
notifying them of the vehicle’s location
(without needing to push the “SOS” but-
ton) and an agent will attempt to speak
with the occupants to ascertain the level
of emergency and assi stance required. If
the occupants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically treats the
call as an emergency and helps to dis-
patch the necessary emergency services. (
P.60)
• An SRS airbag is deployed.
• A seat belt preten sioner is activated.
• The vehicle is involved in a severe rear-end collision.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS
front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in the
event of an impact that exceeds the set
threshold level (the level of force corre-
sponding to an approximately 12 - 18
mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with
a fixed wall that does not move or
deform).
However, this threshol d velocity will be
considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can
move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which the
front of the vehicle “u nderrides”, or goes
under, the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, it is
possible that only the seat belt
pretensioners will activate.
●The SRS seat cushion airbag on the front
passenger seat will not operate if the
occupant is not wearing a seat belt.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS
side and curtain shield airbags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield airbags
will deploy in the event of an impact that
exceeds the set threshold level (the level
of force corresponding to the impact
force produced by an approximately
3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle colliding with
the vehicle cabin from a direction per-

The laws of all 50 states of the U.S.A.
as well as Canada now require the use
of child restraint systems.
Prioritize and observe the warn-
Riding with children
Observe the following precautions
when children are in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system appro-
priate for the child, until the child
becomes large enough to properly
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that children
sit in the rear seats to avoid acci-
dental contact with the shift lever,
wiper switch, etc.
Use the rear door child-protector
lock or the window lock switch to
avoid children op ening the door
while driving or operating the
power window accidentally.
( P.100, 142)
Do not let small children operate
equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the
power window, hood, back door,
seats etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle, and never allow children to have
or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle
or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is
also a danger that children may injure
themselves by playin g with the windows,
the moon roof or panoramic moon roof,
or other features of the vehicle. In addi-
tion, heat build-up or extremely cold
temperatures inside the vehicle can be
fatal to children.
Child restraint systems
Before installing a child restraint
system in the vehicle, there are pre-
cautions that need to be observed,
different types of child restraint sys-
tems, as well as installation meth-
ods, etc., written in this manual.
Use a child restraint system when
riding with a small child that cannot
properly use a seat belt. For the
child’s safety, install the child
restraint system to a second-row
seat. Be sure to follow the installa-
tion method that is in the operation
manual enclosed with the restraint
system.

501-2. Child safety
A child restraint system for a small
child or baby must itself be properly
restrained on the seat with the lap por-
tion of the lap/shoulder belt.
■Installing child restraint system
using a seat belt (child restraint
lock function belt)
Install the child restraint system in
accordance to the operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint sys-
tem.
■Rear-facing Infant seat/con-
vertible seat
1 Adjust the rear seat
If there is a gap between the child seat and
the seatback, adjust the seatback angle
until good contact is achieved.
2Place the child restraint system on
the rear seat facing the rear of the
vehicle.
3 Run the seat belt through the child
restraint system and insert the plate
WARNING
●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 or rear pillars, or roof side rails
from which the SRS side airbags or
SRS curtain shield ai rbags 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.
●When a booster seat is installed,
always ensure that th e shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the
child’s shoulder. T he belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but
not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder.
●Use child restraint sy stem suitable to
the age and size of the child and install
it to the rear seat.
●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.
●Adjust the front passenger seat so that
it does not interfere with the child
restraint system.
