1-1. For safe use
Replacing the belt after the pretensioner has been activated
■
If the vehicle is involved in multiple collisions, the pretensioner will activate for the first
collision, but will not activate for the second or subsequent collisions.
Seat belt extender
■
If your seat belts cannot be fastened securely
because they are not long enough, a personal-
ized seat belt extender is available from your
Lexus dealer free of charge.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or an accident.
Failing to do so may cause death or serious injury.
Wearing a seat belt
■
Ensure that all passengers wear a seat belt.
●
Always wear a seat belt properly.
●
Each seat belt should be used by one person only. Do not use a seat belt for more
●
than one person at once, including children.
Lexus recommends that children be seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt
●
and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
To achieve a proper seating position, do not recline the seat more than necessary. The
●
seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back in
the seats.
Do not wear the shoulder belt under your arm.
●
Always wear your seat belt low and snug across your hips.
●
Pregnant women
■
Obtain medical advice and wear the seat belt
in the proper way. (P. 32)
Women who are pregnant should position the
lap belt as low as possible over the hips in the
same manner as other occupants, extending
the shoulder belt completely over the shoulder
and avoiding belt contact with the rounding of
the abdominal area.
If the seat belt is not worn properly, not only the
pregnant woman, but also the fetus could suffer
death or serious injury as a result of sudden
braking or a collision.
