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 recom-
mended, as it is safer to use in this
vehicle. Lexus genuine child
restraint systems are made specif-
ically for Lexus vehicles. They can
be purchased at a Lexus dealer.
