Page 41 1-1. For safe use 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 sen- sors etc. shown in the system components diagram above. This information includes crash severity and occupant information.
Page 42 An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Lexus strongly recom- mends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and prop- erly restrained.
Page 43 1-1. For safe use WARNING SRS airbag precautions ■ Do not lean against the door, the roof side rail ● or the front, side and rear pillars. Do not allow anyone to kneel on the passen- ● ger seats toward the door or put their head or hands outside the vehicle.
Page 44 If the areas where the SRS airbags are stored, such as the steering wheel pad and ● front, side and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have them replaced by your Lexus dealer. Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’ s seat. Doing so will ●...

Page 46 1-1. For safe use SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags) ■ The SRS front airbags will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set thresh- ● old level (the level of force corresponding to an approximately 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
Page 47 1-1. For safe use 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, whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward deceleration of the vehicle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur.
Page 48 1-1. For safe use 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.

Page 61 In an accident, the child can be crushed against the windshield, or between you and the vehicle’ s interior. Lexus strongly urges the use of a proper child restraint system that conforms to the ● size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to accident statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
Page 62 1-1. For safe use WARNING When children are in the vehicle ■ Do not allow children to play with the seat belt. If the seat belt becomes twisted around a child’ s neck, it may lead to choking or other serious injuries that could result in death. If this occurs and the buckle cannot be unfastened, scissors should be used to cut the belt.
Page 63 1-1. For safe use Installing child restraints Follow the child restraint system manufacturer’s instructions. Firmly secure the child restraints to the outboard second seats using the LATCH anchors or a seat belt. Attach the top tether strap when installing a child restraint. The lap/shoulder belt can be used if your child restraint system is not compati- ble with the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system.
Page 64 1-1. For safe use Installation with LATCH system Fold the seatback forward and then adjust it as upright as possible. Take off the covers between the seat cushion and seatback, then confirm the position of the LATCH anchors below the symbol in the seatback. LX570_OM_OM60N01U_(U)
