Adjustable components CAUTION n Seat belt damage and wear l Do not damage the seat belts by allowing the belt, plate, or buckle to be jammed in the door. l Inspect the seat belt system periodically. Check for cuts, fraying, and loose parts. 1 Do not use a damaged seat belt until it is replaced. Damaged seat belts cannot protect an occupant from death or serious injury. l Ensure that the belt and tab are locked and the belt is not twisted. Before driving If the seat belt does not function correctly, immediately contact your Lexus dealer. l Replace the seat assembly, including the belts, if your vehicle has been involved in a serious accident, even if there is no obvious damage. l Do not attempt to install, remove, modify, disassemble or dispose of the seat belts. Have any necessary repairs carried out by your Lexus dealer. Inappropriate handling of the pretensioner may prevent it from operating properly resulting in death or serious injury. n Precaution for pre-collision seat belts Do not rely on the pre-collision system to avoid accidents. Always pay attention to the surrounding conditions, and drive safely and responsibly. n Using a seat belt extender l Do not wear the seat belt extender if you can fasten the seat belt without the extender. l Do not use the seat belt extender when installing a child restraint system because the belt will not securely hold the child restraint system, increasing the risk of death or injury in the event of a collision. l The personalized extender may not be safe on another vehicle, when used by another person, or at a different seating position other than the one originally intended. 53
