■If a safety system warning light does
not come on
Should a safety system light such as the
ABS and SRS warning light not come on
when you start the engine, this could
mean that these systems are not available
to help protect you in an accident, which
could result in death or serious injury.
Have the vehicle inspected by your
Lexus dealer immediately if this occurs.

Driving
*1: Shifting to the D position allows the sys-tem to select a gear suitable for the
driving conditions. Setting the shift lever
to the D position is recommended for
normal driving. You can choose shift
range suitable for your driving situation
by operating the paddle shift switches.
*2: Selecting shift ranges using S mode restricts the upper li mit of the possible
gear ranges, controls engine braking
force, and prevents unnecessary
upshifting.
■When driving with dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range activated
Even when performing the following
actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not be acti-
vated because dynamic radar cruise con-
trol with full-speed range will not be
canceled.
●While driving in the D position or S mode,
downshifting to 7, 6, 5 or 4. ( P.187)
●When switching the driving mode to
sport mode while driving in D position.
( P.202)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-Start
Control)

■AI-SHIFT
The AI-SHIFT automatica lly selects the suit-
able gear according to driver performance
and driving conditions.
The AI-SHIFT automatically operates when
the shift lever is in D. (Shifting the shift lever
to the S position or using the paddle shift
cancels the function.)

Driving assist system
WARNING
■Lexus Safety System+2.0
The Lexus Safety System+2.0 is
designed to operate under the assump-
tion that the driver wi ll drive safely, and is
designed to help reduce the impact to
the occupants and the vehicle in the case
of a collision or assist the driver in normal
driving conditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recog-
nition accuracy and control performance
that this system can provide, do not
overly rely on this system. The driver is
always responsible for paying attention
to the vehicle’s surro undings and driving
safely.

WARNING
■To avoid malfunction of the radar sen-
sor
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the radar sensor may not
operate properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.

1764-5. Using the driving support systems
LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
When driving on highways and
freeways with white (yellow) lane
lines, this function alerts the driver
when the vehicle might depart from
its lane or course
* and provides
assistance by operating the steer-
ing wheel to keep the vehicle in its
lane or course
*. Furthermore, the
system provides steering assistance
when dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range is operating
to keep the vehicle in its lane.
The LTA system recognizes white
(yellow) lane lines or a course
*
using the front camera. Addition-
ally, it detects preceding vehicles
using the front camera and radar.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as grass, soil, or
a curb
WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LTA sys-
tem. The LTA system does not auto-
matically drive the vehicle or reduce
the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle.
The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by pay-
ing careful attention to the surround-
ing conditions and operating the
steering wheel to correct the path of
the vehicle. Also, the driver must take
adequate breaks when fatigued, such
as from driving for a long period of
time.
●Failure to perform appropriate driving
operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●When not using the LTA system, use
the LTA switch to turn the system off.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA system
In the following situations, use the LTA
switch to turn the system off. Failure to do
so may lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road surface
which is slippery due to rainy weather,
fallen snow, freezing, etc.
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-covered
road.
●White (yellow) lines are difficult to see
due to rain, snow, fog, dust, etc.
●Vehicle is driven in a temporary lane or
restricted lane due to construction
work.
●Vehicle is driven in a construction
zone.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are
equipped.
●When the tires have been excessively
worn, or when the tire inflation pres-
sure is low.

1804-5. Using the driving support systems
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the vehicle is swaying within a
lane, the warning buzzer will sound and
a message will be displayed on the
multi-information display to alert the
driver.
■Lane centering function
This function is linked with dynamic
radar cruise control with full-speed
range and provides the required assis-
tance by operating the steering wheel
to keep the vehicle in its current lane.
When dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is not operating, the lane
centering function does not operate.
In situations where the white (yellow) lane
lines are difficult to see or are not visible,
such as when in a traffic jam, this function
will operate to help follow a preceding
vehicle by monitoring the position of the
preceding vehicle.
If the system detects that the steering
wheel has not been operated for a fixed
amount of time or the steering wheel is not
being firmly gripped, a warning is displayed
on the multi-informat ion display and the
function is temporarily canceled.

●Lane centering function
This function operates when all of the fol-
lowing conditions are met.
• LTA is turned on.
• Setting for “Steering Assist” and “Lane
Center” in of th e multi-information
display are set to “On”. ( P.72)
• This function recognizes white (yellow) lane lines or the position of a preceding
vehicle (except when the preceding vehi-
cle is small, such as a motorcycle).
• The dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is operating in vehicle-
to-vehicle distance control mode.
• Width of traffic lane is approximately 10
to 13 ft. (3 to 4 m).
• Turn signal lever is not operated.
• Vehicle is not being driven around a sharp curve.
• No system malfunctions are detected. ( P.184)
• Vehicle does not acc elerate or deceler-
ate by a fixed amount or more.
• Steering wheel is not operated with a
steering force level su itable for changing
lanes.
• ABS, VSC, TRAC and PCS are not oper-
ating.
• TRAC or VSC is not turned off.
• Hands off steering wheel warning is not displayed. ( P.183)
• The vehicle is being driven in the center of a lane.
• Steering assist function is not operating.
■Temporary cancelation of functions
When operation conditions are no longer
met, a function may be temporarily can-
celed. However, when the operation condi-
tions are met again, operation of the
function is automatically restored. ( P.182)
If the operation conditions ( P.182) are no
longer met while the lane centering func-
tion is operating, th e steering wheel may
vibrate and the buzzer may sound to indi-
cate that the function has been temporarily
canceled. However, if the “Steering wheel
vibration” customization setting is set to
“On”, the system will notify the driver by vibrating the steering wheel instead of
sounding the buzzer.
■Steering assist function/lane centering
function
●Depending on the vehicle speed, lane
departure situation, road conditions, etc.,
the driver may not feel the function is
operating or the function may not oper-
ate at all.
●The steering control of the function is
overridden by the driver’s steering wheel
operation.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the steering assist function.
■Lane departure alert function
●The warning buzzer may be difficult to
hear due to external noise, audio play-
back, etc. Also, it may be difficult to feel
steering wheel vibrations due to the road
conditions, etc.
●If the edge of the course* is not clear or
straight, the lane departure alert function
may not operate.
●Vehicles with Blind Spot Monitor: It may
not be possible for the system to deter-
mine if there is a danger of a collision with
a vehicle in an adjacent lane.
●Do not attempt to test the operation of
the lane departure alert function.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side
of the road, such as grass, soil, or a curb
■Hands off steering wheel warning
In the following situations, a warning mes-
sage urging the driver to hold the steering
wheel and the symbol sh own in the illustra-
tion are displayed on the multi-information
display to warn the driver. The warning
stops when the system determines that the
driver holds the steering wheel. Always
keep your hands on the steering wheel
when using this system , regardless of warn-
ings.
