■Dynamic radar cruise can be set when
●The shift lever is in D. (Recommended)
Dynamic radar cruise control can also be set when the shift lever is in the S posi-
tion and range 4, 5 or 6 has been selected.
●Vehicle speed is above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).
■Switching modes
The mode cannot be switched to constant speed control mode if vehicle-to-vehicle
distance control mode has been used. The mode also cannot be switched from
constant speed control to vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode. Turn the sys-
tem off by pressing the “ON-OFF” button, and turn it on again.
■Accelerating
The vehicle can be accelerated normally. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the vehicle ahead.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled in the follow-
ing situations:
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
●VSC is activated.
●The sensor cannot operate correctly because it is covered in some way.
●The windshield wipers are operating at high speed.
●The driving mode is set to second start mode.
●Bad weather causes the detection function to become extremely unstable.
●Multi-terrain mode is selected other than OFF.
●The center differential lock/unlock is not completed within 5 seconds while the
dynamic radar cruise control system is on.
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control driving is automatically canceled for any other
reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact your Lexus dealer.

■The Multi-terrain Select can be operated when
●Vehicle speed is less than 7 mph (12 km/h)
●Crawl Control is off
■When using Multi-terrain Select
The following functions cannot be switched on or off.
●VSC
●Active TRAC
●Second start mode
A message will be shown on the multi-information display stating that these func-
tions cannot be switched using the VSC OFF switch or the menu and “ENTER”
switches.
■When selecting a terrain mode
If you are unsure which mode is appropriate, select MOGUL when the four-wheel
drive control switch is in L4 or select MUD & SAND when it is in H4.
■When it is difficult to generate traction
MUD & SAND mode provides the largest amount of tire slippage, followed by
LOOSE ROCK, MOGUL and ROCK mode.
Drivability can be improved by selecting a mode which provides a smaller amount
of tire slippage than the current mode when the amount of tire slippage is large, or
conversely selecting a mode which provides a larger amount of tire slippage than
the current mode when the amount of tire slippage is small.
■When the vehicle is stuck
Switching the transfer and differential

■Automatic system cancelation
In the following situations, the system is canceled automatically:
At that time, the buzzer will sound, the slip indicator turns off, and the Crawl Con-
trol indicator flashes.
A notification will be displayed on the multi-information display for several seconds.
(→ P. 6 9 8 )
●When the shift lever is moved to P or N.
●When the four-wheel drive control switch is in H4.
●When the driver’s door is opened.
When turning off Crawl Control while traveling, stop the vehicle before the Crawl
Control indicator turns off, or drive extremely carefully.
■Function limit
●In the following situations, you will be able to use brake control to drive downhill
at a fixed low speed, but you will be unable to use engine control to drive uphill
at a fixed low speed.
• When the driving mode is set to second start mode.
• When the vehicle speed is higher than 6 mph (10 km/h).
●In the following situation, engine control and brake control will stop temporarily:
At that time, the Crawl Control indicator flashes.
When the vehicle speed is higher than 15 mph (25 km/h).
■When the Crawl Control system is operated continuously
This may cause the brake actuator to overheat. In this case, the Crawl Control sys-
tem will stop operating, a buzzer will sound, the Crawl Control indicator will turn off
after flashing and the TRAC OFF will be shown on the multi-information display. In
this case, quickly stop the vehicle in a safe place and give the actuator adequate
time to cool off. Refrain from using the system until the message goes off. (The vehi-
cle can be driven normally during this time.)

■ Automatic Collis ion 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 emergency. 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, an d requests that assistance be sent
to the location.

■Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the following before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect the
ground cable.
●Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and discon-
necting the charger cables to the battery.
■After recharging/reconnecting the battery
●Unlocking the doors using the smart key system may not be possible immedi-
ately after reconnecting the battery. If this happens, use the wireless remote
control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the engine with the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCESSORY
mode. The engine may not start with the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
turned OFF. However, the engine will operate normally from the second
attempt.
●The “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the bat-
tery is reconnected, the vehicle will return the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
mode to the status it was in before the battery was disconnected. Make sure to
turn off the engine before disconnect the battery. Take extra care when con-
necting the battery if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode prior to dis-
charge is unknown.
If the system will not start even after multiple attempts, contact your Lexus dealer.
