Vehicles with power type head
restraint
The pretensioners help the seat belts to
quickly restrain the occupants by
retracting the seat belts when the vehi-
cle is subjected to certain types of
severe frontal or side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in the
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor
side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle roll-
over.
■ Replacing the belt after the preten-
sioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for the
first collision, but will not activate for the
second or subsequent collisions.
■ When using the seat belt guide
Observe the following precautions to
reduce the risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking, sudden swerving or an
accident.
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
● Always make sure that the belt is not
twisted, and runs freely through the
guide.
● Regardless of whether the guide is
used or not, always secure the seat belt
guide button.
● Do not hang from or pull the guide
forcefully.

If the pretensioner has activated, the SRS
warning light will come on. In that case,
the seat belt cannot be used again and
must be replaced at your Lexus dealer.
Failure to do so may cause death or seri-
ous injury.
