Page 119: Child Restraint Systems
1-7. Safety information Child restraint systems Lexus strongly urges the use of child restraint systems. Points to remember Studies have shown that installing a child restraint on a rear seat is much safer than installing one to the front passenger seat.
Page 120 1-7. Safety information Types of child restraints Child restraint systems are classified into the following 3 types according to the age and size of the child. Baby seat (Infant seat) Child seat (Convertible seat) Junior seat (Booster seat)
Page 121 In an accident, the child can be crushed against the wind- shield, 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...
Page 122 1-7. Safety information CAUTION Child restraint precautions ■ Never install a rear-facing child restraint system on the front passenger seat. In ● the event of an accident, the force of the rapid inflation of the front passenger airbag can cause death or serious injury to the child if the rear-facing child restraint system is installed on the front passenger seat.

Latch the buckles onto the STEP exclusive fixing bars. If the child restraint has a top strap, the top strap should be latched onto the anchor.
Page 128 You need a locking clip to install the child restraint system in the front seat. Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the system. If your child restraint system does not provide a locking clip, you can purchase the following item from your Lexus dealer. Locking clip for child restraint system (Part No. 73119-22010)
Page 129 1-7. Safety information CAUTION When installing a child restraint system ■ Follow the directions given in the child restraint system installation manual and fix the child restraint system securely in place. If the child restraint system is not correctly fixed in place, the child or other passen- gers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking or an accident.
Page 130 1-7. Safety information CAUTION When installing a child restraint system ■ When a junior (booster) seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is ● positioned across the center of the child's shoulder. The belt should be kept away from the child's neck, but not so that it could fall off the child's shoulder.
