1-1. For safe use
O
A frontal impact applied to the front
bumper while driving at speeds outside
of the operational speed range
O
A side impact or rear impact
O
A vehicle rollover (In some accident situ-
ations, the Pop Up Hood may operate.)
WARNING
Q
When the Pop Up Hood is operated
O
Do not pull the hood lock release
lever. Doing so after the Pop Up Hood
has operated will further raise the
hood and may cause an injury. Do not
drive with the hood raised, as doing so
may block the driver’s vision, possibly
causing an accident.
O
Do not forcibly push down the hood.
As the popped up hood cannot be
lowered by hand, doing so may
deform the hood or cause an injury.
O
If the Pop Up Hood has operated,
have it replaced by any authorized
Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer. If the
Pop Up Hood has operated, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and contact any
authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
O
Do not touch the lifters immediately
after the Pop Up Hood has operated,
as the lifters may be hot and burn you.
NOTICE
Q
Pop Up Hood precautions
O
Make sure to close the hood before
driving, as the system may not operate
properly if the hood is not fully closed.
O
Make sure that all 4 tires are of the
specified size and inflated to the speci-
fied tire pressure. If tires of a different
size are used, the system may not
operate properly.
O
If something has hit the area around
the front bumper, the sensors may be
damaged even if the Pop Up Hood has
not operated. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Lexus
retailer or Lexus authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer.
O
Do not remove or repair the parts or
wiring of the Pop Up Hood, as doing
so may cause accidental operation or
prevent the system from operating
properly. If repair or replacement is
necessary, contact any authorized
Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
O
Do not remove such components as
the front bumper, hood or suspension,
or replace them with non-genuine
parts, as doing so may prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
O
Do not install anything to the front
bumper or hood, as doing so may pre-
vent the sensors from detecting an
impact correctly and prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
O
Do not close the hood with force or
apply load to the lifters, as doing so
may damage the lifters and prevent
the system from operating properly.
O
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes made to the vehicle height
may prevent the system from operat-
ing properly.

Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the human
body is included in exhaust gases if
inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases
enter the vehicle and may lead to an
accident caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.
Q
Important points while driving
O
Keep the trunk lid closed.
O
If you smell exhaust gases in the vehi-
cle even when the trunk lid is closed,
open the windows and have the vehi-
cle inspected at any authorized Lexus
retailer or Lexus authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer as soon as pos-
sible.
Q
When parking
O
If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated
area or a closed area, such as a
garage, stop the engine <hybrid sys-
tem>.
O
Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine running <hybrid system operat-
ing> for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided,
park the vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter
the vehicle interior.
O
Do not leave the engine running
<hybrid system operating> in an area
with snow build-up, or where it is
snowing. If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the engine is running
<hybrid system is operating>, exhaust
gases may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.
Q
Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be checked
periodically. If there is a hole or crack
caused by corrosion, damage to a joint
or abnormal exhaust noise, be sure to
have the vehicle inspected and repaired
by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.

WARNING
Q
When installing a child restraint sys-
tem
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
deployment (inflation) may cause serious
injury or even death.
Q
When a child restraint system is not
installed on the front passenger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off sys-
tem 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.
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 window lock switch to
avoid children operating the
power window accidentally.
(
P.145)
Do not let small children operate
equipment which may catch or
pinch body parts, such as the
power window, hood, trunk, seats
etc.
WARNING
Q
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 playing with the windows
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 can-
not properly use a seat belt. For
the child’s safety, install the child
restraint system to a rear seat. Be
sure to follow the installation
method that is in the operation
manual enclosed with the
restraint system.
The use of a Lexus genuine child
restraint system is recommended,
as it is safer to use in this vehicle.
Lexus genuine child restraint sys-
tems are made specifically for
Lexus vehicles. They can be pur-
chased at a Lexus dealer.

Q
When installing a child restraint
system to a front passenger seat
For the safety of a child, install child
restraint system to the rear seats.
When installing child restraint system
to a front passenger seat is unavoid-
able, adjust the seat as follows and
install the child restraint system.
Raise the seatback as much as pos-
sible
Move the seat to the rearmost posi-
tion
Raise the seat to the highest position
If the head restraint interferes with
the child restraint system installation
and the head restraint can be
removed, remove the head
restraint.
Otherwise, put the head restraint in
the upper most position.
WARNING
O
Lexus strongly urges the use of a
proper child restraint system that con-
forms to the weight and size of the
child, installed on the rear seat.
According to accident statistics, the
child is safer when properly restrained
in the rear seat than in the front seat.
O
Holding a child in your or someone
else’s arms is not a substitute for a child
restraint system. In an accident, the
child can be crushed against the wind-
shield or between the holder and the
interior of the vehicle.
Q
Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not prop-
erly fixed in place, the child or other pas-
sengers may be seriously injured or even
killed in the event of sudden braking,
sudden swerving, or an accident.
O
If the vehicle were to receive a strong
impact from an accident, etc., it is pos-
sible that the child restraint system has
damage that is not readily visible. In
such cases, do not reuse the restraint
system.
O
Depending on the child restraint sys-
tem, installation may be difficult or
impossible. In those cases, check
whether the child restraint system is
suitable for installment in the vehicle.
(
P.57) Be sure to install and
observe the usage rules after carefully
reading the child restraint system fix-
ing method in this manual, as well as
the operation manual enclosed with
the child restraint system.
O
Keep the child restraint system prop-
erly secured on the seat even if it is not
in use. Do not store the child restraint
system unsecured in the passenger
compartment.
O
If it is necessary to detach the child
restraint system, remove it from the
vehicle or store it securely in the trunk.

WARNING
WARNING
O
Only put a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front seat when
unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint on the front
passenger seat, move the seat as far
back as possible. Failing to do so may
result in death or serious injury if the
airbags deploy (inflate).
O
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 airbags deploy even
if the child is seated in the child
restraint system. It is dangerous if the
SRS side and curtain shield airbags
inflate, and the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.
O
When a junior seat is installed, always
ensure that the shoulder belt is posi-
tioned across the center of the child’s
shoulder. The belt should be kept away
from the child’s neck, but not so that it
could fall off the child’s shoulder.
O
Use a child restraint system suitable to
the age and size of the child and install
it to the rear seat.
