■Shift position purpose
*1: To improve fuel efficiency and reduce noises, set the shift lever in the D position for nor-
mal driving.
*2: Any gear range can be fixed when driving in M mode.
■Selecting shift ranges in the D position
To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-” or “+” paddle shift switch.
Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, preventing unnecessary
upshifting and enabling the level of engine braking force to be selected.

Downshifting
6-speed models:
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D6, will be displayed in the meter.
8-speed models:
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D8, will be displayed in the meter.
To return to normal D position driving,
the “+” paddle shift switch must be held
down for a period of time.

■Services
Subscribers have the following Safety Connect services available:
●Automatic Collision Notification
*
In case of either airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision, the system is designed
to automatically call the response center. The responding agent receives the vehicle’s
location and attempts to speak with the vehicle occupants to assess the level of emer-
gency. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats the
call as an emergency, contacts the nearest emergency services provider to describe the
situation, and requests that assistance be sent to the location.
*: U.S. Patent No. 7,508,298 B2
●Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect can work with local authorities to assist them in
locating and recovering the vehicle. After filing a police report, call the Safety Connect
response center at 1-800-25-LEXUS (1-800-255-3987) and follow the prompts for
Safety Connect to initiate this service.
In addition to assisting law enforcement with recovery of a stolen vehicle, Safety-Con-
nect-equipped vehicle location data may, under certain circumstances, be shared with
third parties to locate your vehicle. Further information is available at Lexus.com.
●Emergency Assistance Button (SOS)
In the event of an emergency on the road, push the “SOS” button to reach the Safety
Connect response center. The answering agent will determine your vehicle’s location,
assess the emergency, and dispatch the necessary assistance required.
If you accidentally press the “SOS” button, tell the response-center agent that you are
not experiencing an emergency.

Lexus roadside service.
