2005 Lexus RX 330 Owners Manual - Page 208

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS D Do not modify or remove any wiring. Do not modify, remove, strike or open any components, such as the steering wheel pad, steering wheel, column cover, front passenger airbag cover, front passenger airbag, driver knee airbag or airbag sensor assembly. Doing so may prevent the front airbag system from activating correctly, cause sudden activation of the system or disable the system, which could result in death or serious injury. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or serious injury. Consult your Lexus dealer about any repair and modification. D Do not put anything or any part of your body or install anything such as accessories or turbo timers on or in front of the dashboard, lower portion of instrument panel or steering wheel pad that houses the front airbag system or in the areas where the SRS knee airbag will inflate. They might restrict inflation or cause death or serious injury as they are projected rearward by the force of the deploying airbags. Likewise, the driver and front passenger should not hold objects in their arms or on their knees. D If the vinyl cover is put on the area where the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be sure to remove it. If you wish to modify your vehicle for a person with a physical disability, consult your Lexus dealer. It may dangerously interfere with the SRS front airbags operation. 177
