WARNING
■Before using dynamic radar cruise control
●Driving safely is the sole responsibility of the driver. Do not rely solely on the system,
and drive safely by always paying ca reful attention to your surroundings.
●The dynamic radar cruise control provides driving assistance to reduce the driver’s
burden. However, there are limitatio ns to the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions carefully. Do not overly rely on this system and always
drive carefully.
• When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead: P. 268
• Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not function correctly: P. 269
●Set the speed appropriately depending on the speed limit, traffic flow, road condi-
tions, weather conditions, etc. The driver is responsible for checking the set speed.
●Even when the system is functioning norma lly, the condition of the preceding vehicle
as detected by the system may differ from the condition observed by the driver.
Therefore, the driver must always remain alert, assess the danger of each situation
and drive safely. Relying on this system or assuming the system ensures safety while
driving can lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
●Switch the dynamic radar cruise control off using the “ON/OFF” button when not in
use.
■Cautions regarding the driving assist systems
Observe the following precautions, as there are limitations to the assistance provided
by the system.
Failure to do so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
●Assisting the driver to measure following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control is only in tended to help the driver in determining
the following distance between the driver ’s own vehicle and a designated vehicle
traveling ahead. It is not a mechanism that allows careless or inattentive driving, and it
is not a system that can assist the driver in low-visibility conditions . It is still necessary
for driver to pay close attention to the vehicle’s surroundings.
●Assisting the driver to judg e proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control determines whether the following distance
between the driver’s own vehicle and a design ated vehicle traveling ahead is within a
set range. It is not capable of making any other type of judgement. Therefore, it is
absolutely necessary for the driver to remain vigilant and to determine whether or not
there is a possibility of danger in any given situation.
●Assisting the driver to operate the vehicle
The dynamic radar cruise cont rol has limited capability to prevent or avoid a collision
with a vehicle traveling ahead. Therefore, if there is ever any danger, the driver must
take immediate and direct control of the vehicle and act appropriately in order to
ensure the safety of all involved.

■Dynamic radar cruise control can be set when
●The shift lever is in D.
●Vehicle speed is at or above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).
■Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the
set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehi-
cle speed may decrease below the set speed in order to maintain the distance to the pre-
ceding vehicle.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle- to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the following situ-
ations:
●Actual vehicle speed falls at or below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
●VSC is activated.
●Active TRAC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or Active TR AC system is turned off.
●When second start mode is set.
●The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
●Pre-collision braking is activated.
●The switching operation continues for 5 seco nds or more after the center differential
lock switch has been operated.
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any other rea-
son, there may be a malfunction in th e system. Contact your Lexus dealer.
■Automatic cancelation of constant speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is automatica lly canceled in the following situations:
●Actual vehicle speed is more than approxim ately 10 mph (16 km/h) below the set vehi-
cle speed.
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
●VSC is activated.
●Active TRAC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or Active TRAC system is turned off.
●Pre-collision braking is activated.
●The switching operation continues for 5 seco nds or more after the center differential
lock switch has been operated.
If constant speed control mode is automati cally canceled for any other reason, there may
be a malfunction in the system . Contact your Lexus dealer.
■Brake system operation sound
If the brakes are applied automatically while the vehicle is in vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode, a brake system operation sound may be heard. This does not indicate a
malfunction.

■Differences between the panoramic view display and actual three-dimen-
sional objects
Be aware of the following points when
three-dimensional objects higher than
the surface of the road (such as a vehicle bumper) are nearby.
●Panoramic view display
In the panoramic view, the system processes and displays images under the
assumption that the vehicle is on a fl at road surface. Therefore, the position
of three-dimensional objects higher th an the road surface (such as a vehi-
cle bumper) cannot be determined. Even if it seems that a collision will not
occur according to the screen, there may not actually be any extra space
between the vehicle and an obstacle higher than the road surface, resulting
in a collision. In these cases, confir m the safety of your surroundings
directly.
WARNING
■Intuitive parking assist pop-up display
When the intuitive parking assist pop-up disp lay is red, park the vehicle and make sure
to confirm the safety of your surroundings.
Failure to do so may lead to an unexpected accident.

●Projected course lines
Projected course lines are displayed under the assumption that the vehicle
is on a flat road surface. Therefore, the position of three-dimensional
objects higher than the road surface (such as a vehicle bumper) cannot be
determined. Even if it seems that an obstacle is outside of the projected
course lines and a collision will no t occur according to the screen, an
obstacle may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in a collision.
Projected course lines Three-dimensional objects in high positions (such as walls with protrusions
or the loading areas of trucks) may not be displayed on the screen. Con-
firm the safety of your surroundings directly.

■Differences between the rear view or wide rear view and actual roads
The guide lines on the screen are intend
ed for flat surfaces (such as the road).
Be aware of the following points when three-dimensional objects with protru-
sions (obstacles such as the cargo bed of a truck) are nearby.
●Projected course lines
Guide lines are displayed in reference to a level road surface and cannot
be used to determine the location of three-dimensional objects. Confirm
the safety of your surroundings directly . Even if it seems that the cargo bed
of a truck is outside the projected co urse lines and a collision will not occur
according to the screen, it may actually be in the vehicle course, resulting in
a collision.
