IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR LEXUSIMPORTANT INFORMATIONABOUT YOUR LEXUSOccupant restraint systemsLexus encourages you and your family to take the time to readSection 1-6 of this Owner’s Manual carefully. In terms ofhelping you understand how you can receive the maximumbenefit of the occupant restraint systems this vehicle provides,Section 1-6 of this Owner’s Manual is the most importantSection for you and your family to read.Section 1-6 describes the function and operation concerningseats, seat belts, SRS airbags and child restraint systems ofthis vehicle and some potential hazards you should be awareof. These systems work together along with the overallstructure of this vehicle in order to provide occupant restraintin the event of a crash. The effect of each system is enhancedwhen it is used properly and together with other systems. Nosingle occupant restraint system can, by itself, provide you oryour family with the equal level of restraint which thesesystems can provide when used together. That is why it isimportant for you and your family to understand the purposeand proper use of each of these systems and how they relateto each other.The purpose of all occupant restraint systems is to help reducethe possibility of death or serious injury in the event of acollision. None of these systems, either individually ortogether, can ensure that there is no injury in the event ofcollision. However, the more you know about these systemsand how to use them properly, the greater your chancesbecome of surviving an accident without death or seriousinjury.Seat belts provide the primary restraint to all occupants of thevehicle, and every occupant of the vehicle should wear seatbelts properly at all times. Children should always be securedin child restraint systems that are appropriate for their age andsize. SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbags are, astheir names imply, designed to work with, and be supplementalto, seat belts and are not substitutes for them. SRS airbagscan be very effective in reducing the risk of head and chestinjuries by preventing contact of the head and chest withinterior portions of the vehicle.In order to be effective, the SRS airbags must deploy withtremendous speed. The rapid deployment of the SRS airbagsmakes the SRS airbags themselves potential sources ofserious injury if an occupant is too close to an airbag, or if anobject or some part of his or her body has been placed betweenthe occupant and the airbag at the time of deployment. Thisis just one example of how the instructions in Section 1-6 ofthis Owner’s Manual will help ensure proper use of theoccupant restraint systems, and increase the safety they canprovide to you and your family in the event of an accident.Lexus recommends you to read the provisions in Section 1-6carefully and refer to them as needed during your time ofownership of this vehicle.ii
