COMFORT ADJUSTMENT FRONT SEATS Front seat precautions CAUTION The SRS side airbags are installed in the driver and front passenger seats. Observe the following precautions. D Do not lean over the front door when the vehicle is in use. The side airbag inflates with considerable speed and force; you may be killed or severely injured. D Do not modify or replace the seats or the surface of the seats with side airbags. Such changes may disable the system, or cause the side airbags to inflate, resulting in death or serious injury. Consult your Lexus dealer. D Do not use accessories for the seats which cover the parts where the side airbags should inflate. Such accessories may prevent the side airbags from activating correctly, causing death or serious injury. Seat adjustment precautions Adjust the driver's seat so that the foot pedals, steering wheel and instrument panel controls are within easy reach of the driver. CAUTION D Do not adjust the seat while the vehicle is moving as the seat may unexpectedly move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. D Be careful not to hit the seat against a passenger, luggage or the rear seat. 98
