6-3. Reducing impact to the occupants in a collision
WARNING
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. (
P.68)
●
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 or sit
on the lap of a front passenger.
●
Front seat occupants should never
hold items on their lap.
Do not lean against the door, roof side
●
rail, or front, side, or rear pillar.
●
Do not allow anyone to kneel on a seat
toward the door or put their head or
hands outside the vehicle.
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.
Do not attach anything to areas such
●
as the doors, windshield, side windows,
front or rear pillars, roof side rails and
assist grips. (With the exception of the
speed limit label
P.512)
●
Do not hang coat hangers or other
hard objects on the coat hooks. These
items could become projectiles if the
SRS curtain shield airbags deploy, pos-
sibly leading to death or serious injury.
●
If a vinyl cover is attached to the area
where the SRS knee airbag deploys,
be sure to remove it.
