Always make sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of your
shoulder. The belt should be kept away

Seat belt pretensioners
■
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
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.
