To fasten the seat belt, push the 
plate into the buckle until a click 
sound is heard.

2

To release the seat belt, press the 
release button 

.

Emergency locking retractor (ELR)

The retractor will lock the belt during a sud-

den 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 com-

pletely extended and then retracted even 

slightly, the belt is locked in that position and 

cannot be extended. This feature is used to 

hold a child restraint system (CRS) firmly. To 

free the belt again, fully retract the belt and 

then pull the belt out once more.

The front seats are equipped with 
guides to allow the seat belt to be 
extended easily. When it is difficult to 
extend the seat belt, pass the seat belt 
through the guide.

When getting into or out of a rear seat, 
release the seat belt from the guide.

Vehicles with manual type head 
restraint

WARNING

Do not wear the seat belt extender if 

you can fasten the seat belt without the 

extender.

Do not use the seat belt extender 

when installing a child restraint system 

because the belt will not securely hold 

the child restraint system, increasing 

the risk of death or serious injury in the 

event of an accident.

The personalized extender may not be 

safe on another vehicle, when used by 

another person, or at a different seat-

ing position other than the one origi-

nally intended.

NOTICE

When using a seat belt extender

When releasing the seat belt, press on 

the buckle release button on the 

extender, not on the seat belt. 

This helps prevent damage to the vehicle 

interior and the extender itself.

Vehicles with power type head 
restraint

The pretensioners help the seat belts to 
quickly restrain the occupants by 
retracting the seat belts when the vehi-
cle is subjected to certain types of 
severe frontal or side collision or a 
vehicle rollover.

The pretensioners do not activate in the 
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor 
side impact or a rear impact.

Replacing the belt after the preten-

sioner has been activated

If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-

sions, the pretensioner will activate for the 

first collision, but will not activate for the 

second or subsequent collisions.

WARNING

When using the seat belt guide

Observe the following precautions to 

reduce the risk of injury in the event of 

sudden braking, sudden swerving or an 

accident.

Failure to do so may cause death or seri-

ous injury.

Always make sure that the belt is not 

twisted, and runs freely through the 

guide.

Regardless of whether the guide is 

used or not, always secure the seat belt 

guide button.

Do not hang from or pull the guide 

forcefully.

Seat belt pretensioners

WARNING

Seat belt pretensioners

Observe the following precautions to 

reduce the risk of injury in the event of 

sudden braking, sudden swerving or an 

accident. 

Failure to do so may cause death or seri-

ous injury.

Do not place anything, such as a cush-

ion, on the front passenger’s seat. 

Doing so will disperse the passenger’s 

weight, which prevents the sensor 

from detecting the passenger’s weight 

properly. As a result, the seat belt pre-

tensioner for the front passenger’s seat 

may not activate in the event of a colli-

sion.

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.

Your vehicle is equipped with ADVANCED AIRBAGS designed based on the US 
motor vehicle safety standards (FMVSS208). The airbag sensor assembly (ECU) 
controls airbag deployment based on information obtained from the sensors etc. 
shown in the system components diagram above. This information includes crash 
severity and occupant information. As the airbags deploy, a chemical reaction in 
the inflators quickly fills the airbags with non-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 seats, 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.

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 assistance 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 ser-

vices.(

P.54)

• An SRS airbag is deployed.

• A seat belt pretensioner 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 threshold 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 underrides, or goes 

under, the bed of a truck

Depending on the type of collision, it is 

possible that only the seat belt preten-

sioners will activate.

The SRS front airbags for the front pas-

senger will not activate if there is no pas-

senger sitting in the front passenger seat. 

However, the SRS front airbags for the 

front passenger may deploy if luggage is 

put in the seat, even if the seat is unoccu-

pied.

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-

pendicular to the vehicle orientation at an 

approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 

30 km/h]).

Both SRS curtain shield airbags may

deploy in the event of a severe side colli-

sion.

Both SRS curtain shield airbags will 

deploy in the event of vehicle rollover.

Both SRS curtain shield airbags may also 

deploy in the event of a severe frontal col-

lision.

Conditions under which the SRS air-

bags may deploy (inflate), other than a 

collision

The SRS front airbags and SRS curtain 

shield airbags may also deploy if a serious 

impact occurs to the underside of your 

vehicle. Some examples are shown in the 

illustration.

Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard 

surface

Falling into or jumping over a deep hole

Landing hard or falling

The SRS curtain shield airbags may also 

deploy under the situations shown in the 

illustration.

The angle of vehicle tip-up is marginal.

The vehicle skids and hits a curb stone.

Types of collisions that may not deploy 

the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)

The SRS front airbags do not generally 

inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or 

rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved 

in a low-speed frontal collision. But, when-

ever a collision of any type causes sufficient 

forward deceleration of the vehicle, deploy-

ment of the SRS front airbags may occur.

Collision from the side

Collision from the rear

Vehicle rollover

Types of collisions that may not deploy 

the SRS airbags (SRS side and curtain 

shield airbags)

The SRS side and curtain shield airbags 

may not activate if the vehicle is subjected 

to a collision from the side at certain angles, 

or a collision to the side of the vehicle body 

other than the passenger compartment.

Collision from the side to the vehicle 

body other than the passenger compart-

ment

Collision from the side at an angle

The SRS side airbags do not generally 

inflate if the vehicle is involved in a frontal or 

rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved 

in a low-speed side collision.

Collision from the front

Collision from the rear

Vehicle rollover

1-1. For safe use

The SRS curtain shield airbags do not gen-

erally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a 

rear collision, if it pitches end over end, or if 

it is involved in a low-speed side or low-

speed frontal collision.

When to contact your Lexus dealer

In the following cases, the vehicle will 

require inspection and/or repair. Contact 

your Lexus dealer as soon as possible.

Any of the SRS airbags have been 

inflated.

The front of the vehicle is damaged or 

deformed, or was involved in an accident 

that was not severe enough to cause the 

SRS front airbags to inflate.

A portion of a door or its surrounding 

area is damaged, deformed or has had a 

hole made in it, or the vehicle was 

involved in an accident that was not 

severe enough to cause the SRS side and 

curtain shield airbags to inflate.

The pad section of the steering wheel, 

dashboard near the front passenger air-

bag or lower portion of the instrument 

panel is scratched, cracked, or otherwise 

damaged.

The surface of the seats with the SRS side 

airbag is scratched, cracked, or other-

wise damaged.

The portion of the front pillars, rear pillars 

or roof side rail garnishes (padding) con-

taining the SRS curtain shield airbags 

inside is scratched, cracked, or otherwise 

damaged.

WARNING

SRS airbag precautions

Observe the following precautions 

regarding the SRS airbags. 

Failure to do so may cause death or seri-

ous injury.

The driver and all passengers in the 

vehicle must wear their seat belts 

properly. 

The SRS airbags are supplemental 

devices to be used with the seat belts.

The SRS driver airbag deploys with 

considerable force, and can cause 

death or serious injury especially if the 

driver is very close to the airbag. The 

National Highway Traffic Safety 

Administration (NHTSA) advises: 

Since the risk zone for the driver’s air-

bag is the first 2 - 3 in. (50 - 75 mm) of 

inflation, placing yourself 10 in. (250 

mm) from your driver airbag provides 

you with a clear margin of safety. This 

distance is measured from the center 

of the steering wheel to your breast-

bone. If you sit less than 10 in. (250 

mm) away now, you can change your 

driving position in several ways:

• Move your seat to the rear as far as 

you can while still reaching the pedals 

comfortably.

• Slightly recline the back of the seat. 

Although vehicle designs vary, many 

drivers can achieve the 10 in. (250 

mm) distance, even with the driver seat 

all the way forward, simply by reclining 

the back of the seat somewhat. If 

reclining the back of your seat makes it 

hard to see the road, raise yourself by 

using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or 

raise the seat if your vehicle has that 

feature.

• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt 

it downward. This points the airbag 

toward your chest instead of your head 

and neck.

The seat should be adjusted as recom-

mended by NHTSA above, while still 

maintaining control of the foot pedals, 

steering wheel, and your view of the 

instrument panel controls.

If the seat belt extender has been con-

nected to the front seat belt buckles 

but the seat belt extender has not also 

been fastened to the latch plate of the 

seat belt, the SRS front airbags will 

judge that the driver and front passen-

ger are wearing the seat belt even 

though the seat belt has not been con-

nected. In this case, the SRS front air-

bags may not activate correctly in a 

collision, resulting in death or serious 

injury in the event of a collision. Be 

sure to wear the seat belt with the seat 

belt extender.

The SRS front passenger airbag also 

deploys with considerable force, and 

can cause death or serious injury 

especially if the front passenger is very 

close to the airbag. The front passen-

ger seat should be as far from the air-

bag as possible with the seatback 

adjusted, so the front passenger sits 

upright.

Improperly seated and/or restrained 

infants and children can be killed or 

seriously injured by a deploying airbag. 

An infant or child who is too small to 

use a seat belt should be properly 

secured using a child restraint system. 

Lexus strongly recommends that all 

infants and children be placed in the 

rear seats of the vehicle and properly 

restrained. The rear seats are safer for 

infants and children than the front pas-

senger seat. (

WARNING

Do not sit on the edge of the seat or 

lean against the dashboard.

Do not allow a child to stand in front of 

the SRS front passenger airbag unit or 

sit on the knees of a front passenger.

Do not allow the front seat occupants 

to hold items on their knees.

Do not lean against the door, the roof 

side rail or the front, side and rear pil-

lars.

Do not allow anyone to kneel on the 

passenger seat toward the door or put 

their head or hands outside the vehi-

cle.

Do not attach anything to or lean any-

thing against areas such as the dash-

board, steering wheel pad and lower 

portion of the instrument panel. 

These items can become projectiles 

when the SRS driver, front passenger 

and knee airbags deploy.

Do not attach anything to areas such 

as a door, windshield, side window, 

front or rear pillar and roof side rail.

Do not hang coat hangers or other 

hard objects on the coat hooks. All of 

these items could become projectiles 

and may cause death or serious injury, 

should the SRS curtain shield airbags 

deploy.

If a vinyl cover is put on the area where 

the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be 

sure to remove it.

35

For safety and security

WARNING

Do not use seat accessories which 

cover the parts where the SRS side air-

bags inflate as they may interfere with 

inflation of the SRS airbags. Such 

accessories may prevent the side air-

bags from activating correctly, disable 

the system or cause the side airbags to 

inflate accidentally, resulting in death 

or serious injury.

Do not strike or apply significant levels 

of force to the area of the SRS airbag 

components or the doors. 

Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to 

malfunction.

Do not touch any of the component 

parts immediately after the SRS air-

bags have deployed (inflated) as they 

may be hot.

If breathing becomes difficult after the 

SRS airbags have deployed, open a 

door or window to allow fresh air in, or 

leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so. 

Wash off any residue as soon as possi-

ble to prevent skin irritation.

If the areas where the SRS airbags are 

stored, such as the steering wheel pad 

and front and rear pillar garnishes are 

damaged or cracked, have them 

replaced by your Lexus dealer.

Do not place anything, such as a cush-

ion, on the front passenger’s seat. 

Doing so will disperse the passenger’s 

weight, which prevents the sensor 

from detecting the passenger’s weight 

properly. As a result, the SRS front air-

bags for the front passenger may not 

deploy in the event of a collision.

Modification and disposal of SRS air-

bag system components

Do not dispose of your vehicle or per-

form any of the following modifications 

without consulting your Lexus dealer. 

The SRS airbags may malfunction or 

deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing 

death or serious injury.

Installation, removal, disassembly and 

repair of the SRS airbags

Repairs, modifications, removal or 

replacement of the steering wheel, 

instrument panel, dashboard, seats or 

seat upholstery, front, side and rear pil-

lars, roof side rails, door panels, door 

trims or door speakers

Modifications to the door panel (such 

as making a hole in it)

Repairs or modifications of the front 

fender, front bumper, or side of the 

occupant compartment

Installation of a grille guard (bull bars, 

kangaroo bar, etc.), snow plows, 

winches or roof luggage carrier

Pop Up Hood precautions

Before scrapping your vehicle, make sure 

to contact your Lexus dealer.

The Pop Up Hood system cannot be 

reused once it has operated. Have it 

replaced by your Lexus dealer.

Pop Up Hood operational conditions

The Pop Up Hood will operate when the 

vehicle detects an impact such as the fol-

lowing:

The front bumper detects a frontal impact 

equivalent to or greater than that of a 

pedestrian while the vehicle being driven 

within the operational speed range of 

approximately 16 to 34 mph (25 to 55 

km/h). (The system is operated by an 

impact of threshold level or greater, even 

in the case of a minor collision that may 

not leave a trace on the front bumper. 

Also, depending on the impact condi-

tions or vehicle speed, the system may 

operate by a collision with a light or small 

object or a small animal.)

In other situations such as the following, 

the system may operate when an impact 

is applied to the lower part of the vehicle 

or front bumper:

• Colliding with a curb

• Falling into a deep hole

• Landing  hard

• Hitting the slope of a parking lot, an 

undulating road, a protruding object or 

falling object

Conditions under which the Pop Up 

Hood may not operate properly

If a pedestrian collides with the right or 

left corner of the front bumper or the side 

of the vehicle. As such impacts may be 

difficult to detect, the system may not 

operate.

If the vehicle speed is not detected cor-

rectly, such as if the vehicle is sliding side-

ways, the system may not operate 

properly.

Conditions under which the Pop Up 

Hood will not operate

The Pop Up Hood will not operate in the 

following situations:

Colliding with a lying person

A frontal impact applied to the front 

bumper while driving at speeds outside 

of the operational speed range

A side impact or rear impact

A vehicle rollover (In some accident situ-

ations, the Pop Up Hood may operate.)

Pop Up Hood

In the event of a frontal collision 
with a body, such as a pedestrian, 
the Pop Up Hood system raises the 
hood to reduce the possibility of a 
serious impact to the pedestrian’s 
head area by adding clearance to 
the engine compartment.
When the sensors located at the 
back of the front bumper detect a 
frontal impact with a body, such as a 
pedestrian, which meets or 
exceeds the threshold level while 
the vehicle is being driven within 
the operational speed range, the 
system operates.

WARNING

When the Pop Up Hood is operated

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 caus-

ing an accident.

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.

If the Pop Up Hood has operated, have 

it replaced by your Lexus dealer. If the 

Pop Up Hood has operated, stop the 

vehicle in a safe place and contact 

your Lexus dealer.

Do not touch the lifters immediately 

after the Pop Up Hood has operated, 

as the lifters may be hot and burn you.

NOTICE

Pop Up Hood precautions

Make sure to close the hood before 

driving, as the system may not operate 

properly if the hood is not fully closed.

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.

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 your Lexus dealer.

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 your Lexus dealer.

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.

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.

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.

Do not modify the suspension, as 

changes made to the vehicle height 

may prevent the system from operat-

ing properly.

nated, the SRS airbags for the front 

passenger will not activate, which 

could cause death or serious injury in 

the event of a collision.

Do not apply a heavy load to the front 

passenger seat or equipment (e.g. 

seatback pocket or armrest).

Do not put weight on the front passen-

ger seat by putting your hands or feet 

on the front passenger seat seatback 

from the rear passenger seat.

Do not let a rear passenger lift the 

front passenger seat with their feet or 

press on the seatback with their legs.

Do not put objects under the front pas-

senger seat.

Do not recline the front passenger 

seatback so far that it touches a rear 

seat. This may cause the “AIR BAG 

OFF” indicator light to be illuminated, 

which indicates that the SRS airbags 

for the front passenger will not activate 

in the event of a severe accident. If the 

seatback touches the rear seat, return 

the seatback to a position where it 

does not touch the rear seat. Keep the 

front passenger seatback as upright as 

possible when the vehicle is moving. 

Reclining the seatback excessively 

may lessen the effectiveness of the 

seat belt system.

If an adult sits in the front passenger 

seat, the “AIR BAG ON” indicator light 

is illuminated. If the “AIR BAG OFF” 

indicator is illuminated, ask the passen-

ger to sit up straight, well back in the 

seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat 

belt worn correctly. If the “AIR BAG 

OFF” indicator still remains illumi-

nated, either ask the passenger to 

move to the rear seat, or if that is not 

possible, move the front passenger 

seat fully rearward.

When it is unavoidable to install a for-

ward-facing child restraint system on 

the front passenger seat, install the 

child restraint system on the front pas-

senger seat in the proper order. 

(

P.45)

Do not modify or remove the front 

seats.

Do not kick the front passenger seat or 

subject it to severe impact. Otherwise, 

the SRS warning light may come on to 

indicate a malfunction of the front pas-

senger occupant classification system. 

In this case, contact your Lexus dealer 

immediately.

Child restraint systems installed on the 

rear seat should not contact the front 

seatbacks.

Do not use a seat accessory, such as a 

cushion and seat cover, that covers the 

seat cushion surface.

Do not modify or replace the uphol-

stery of the front seat.

There is a malfunction in the system

*1

: The system judges a person of adult size as an adult. When a smaller adult sits in the 

front passenger seat, the system may not recognize him/her as an adult depending on 
his/her physique and posture.

*2

: In the event the front passenger is wearing a seat belt.

*3

: In the event the front passenger does not wear a seat belt

*4

: For some children, child in seat, child in booster seat or child in convertible seat, the sys-

tem may not recognize him/her as a child. Factors which may affect this can be the phy-
sique or posture.

*5

: Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat. A forward-

facing child restraint system should only be installed on the front passenger seat when it 
is unavoidable. (

P.45)

*6

: In case the indicator light is not illuminated, consult this manual on how to install the child 

restraint system properly. (
