WARNING
■
When a child is riding
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●
For effective protection in automobile accidents and sudden stops, a child must be
properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system which is correctly
installed. For installation details, refer to the operation manual enclosed with the child
restraint system. General installation instructions are provided in this manual.
●
Lexus strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that conforms 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.
●
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 windshield or between
the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
■
Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not properly fixed in place, the child or other passengers
may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerv-
ing, or an accident.
●
If the vehicle were to receive a strong impact from an accident, etc., it is possible that
the child restraint system has damage that is not readily visible. In such cases, do not
reuse the restraint system.
●
Make sure you have complied with all installation instructions provided with the child
restraint system manufacturer and that the system is properly secured.
●
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 luggage compartment.

WARNING
■
When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●
Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat even if
the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is illuminated. 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 if the rear-facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger
seat.
●
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 tether strap
should not be used in the front passenger seat since there is no top tether strap
anchor for the front passenger seat.
●
When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is positioned
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.
●
A forward-facing child restraint system may
be installed on the front passenger seat only
when it is unavoidable. When installing a for-
ward-facing child restraint system on the front
passenger seat, move the seat as far back as
possible, even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator
light is illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with the child
restraint system installation and the head
restraint can be removed, remove the head
restraint.
●
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, side and rear pillars,
or roof side rails from which the SRS side air-
bags 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.

WARNING
■
When using a child restraint system
●
Use a child restraint system suitable to the age and size of the child and install it to the
rear seat.
●
Vehicles with third seats: Child restraint system installed on the third seat should not
contact the second seatbacks.
●
When installing a child restraint system on the second center seat, adjust both seat
cushions to the same position and align both seatbacks at the same angle. The seat-
backs must be adjusted to the same angle. Otherwise, the child restraint system can-
not be securely restrained and this may cause death or serious injuries in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving 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.
●
Adjust the front passenger seat so that it does
not interfere with the child restraint system.

WARNING
■
When installing a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●
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.
●
Ensure that the belt and plate are securely locked and the seat belt is not twisted.
●
Shake the child restraint system left and right, and forward and backward to ensure
that it has been securely installed.
●
After securing a child restraint system, never adjust the seat.
●
When a booster seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is positioned
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.
●
Follow all installation instructions provided by the child restraint system manufacturer.
●
When securing some types of child restraint systems in second or third row seats, it
may not be possible to properly use the seat belts in positions next to the child
restraint without interfering with it or affecting seat belt effectiveness. Be sure your
seat belt fits snugly across your shoulder and low on your hips. If it does not, or if it
interferes with the child restraint, move to a different position. Failure to do so may
result in death or serious injury.
●
When installing a child restraint system on the second center seat, adjust both seat
cushions to the same position and align both seatbacks at the same angle. The seat-
backs must be adjusted to the same angle. Otherwise, the child restraint system can-
not be securely restrained and this may cause death or serious injuries in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
■
When installing a booster seat
To prevent the belt from going into ALR lock mode, do not fully extend the shoulder
belt. ALR mode causes the belt to tighten only. This could cause injury or discomfort to
the child. (
■
Do not use a seat belt extender
If a seat belt extender is used when installing a child restraint system, the seat belt will
not securely hold the child restraint system, which could cause death or serious injury
to the child or other passengers in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.

■
Child restraint LATCH anchors
LATCH anchors are provided for
the second outboard seats. (Buttons
displaying the location of the
anchors are attached to the seats.)
■
When installing in the second outboard seats
Install the child restraint system in accordance to the operation manual
enclosed with the child restraint system.
Adjust the seat
If there is a gap between the child seat and the seatback, adjust the seat-
back angle until good contact is achieved.
If the head restraint interferes with the child restraint system installation and
the head restraint can be removed, remove the head restraint. (
Take off the covers between the
seat cushion and seatback, then
confirm the position of the
LATCH anchors below the sym-
bol in the seatback.
