CAUTION
Seat belt pretensioners
■
Do not place anything, such as a cushion, 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 pretensioner for the
front passenger's seat may not activate in the event of a collision.
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.
Seat belt damage and wear
■
Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be jammed
●
in the door.
Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts.
●
Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat belts cannot
protect an occupant from death or serious injury.
Ensure that the belt and plate are locked and the belt is not twisted.
●
If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Lexus
dealer.
Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been involved in
●
a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage.
Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the seat belts.
●
Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inappropriate han-
dling of the pretensioner may prevent it from operating properly, resulting in
death or serious injury.
Precaution for pre-collision seat belts
■
Do not rely on the pre-collision system to avoid accidents. Always pay attention to
the surrounding conditions, and drive safely and responsibly.
