CAUTION
■Before using dynamic radar cruise control
Do not overly rely on vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode.
Be aware of the set speed. If automatic deceleration/acceleration is not appropriate,
adjust the vehicle speed, as well as the distance between your vehicle and vehicles
ahead by applying the brakes etc.
■Cautions regarding the driving assist systems
Observe the following precautions.
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 al lows 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 judge proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control determines whether the following distance
between the driver’s own vehicle and a designated vehicle traveling ahead is appro-
priate or not. It is not capable of making an y 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 control has no capa bility 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 vehicl e and act appropriately in order to ensure
the safety of all involved.
■To avoid inadvertent cruise control activation
Switch the dynamic radar cruise control off using the “ON/OFF” button when not in
use.

CAUTION
■Situations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise control in any of the following situations.
Doing so may result in inappropriate speed control and could cause an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●Roads where there are pedestrians, cyclers, etc.
●In heavy traffic
●On roads with sharp bends
●On winding roads
●On slippery roads, such as thos e covered with rain, ice or snow
●On steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between sharp up and down
gradients
Vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when driving down a steep hill.
●At entrances to freeways and highways
●When weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sensors from
detecting correctly (fog, snow, sandstorm, heavy rain, etc.)
●When an approach warning buzzer is heard often
●During emergency towing

CAUTION
■When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depending on the conditions, operate the brake pedal
when deceleration of the system is insuff icient or operate the accelerator pedal when
acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types of vehicles, the approach
warning ( P. 207) will not be activated, which may lead to an accident resulting in
death or serious injury.
●Vehicles with small rear ends (traile rs with no load on board, etc.)
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the same lane
●Motorcycles traveling in the same lane

CAUTION
■Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not func-
tion correctly
Operate the brake pedal (or accelerator pe dal operation depending on the situation)
as necessary in the following conditions as the radar sensor may not be able to cor-
rectly detect vehicles ahead, which may lead to an accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
●When water or snow thrown up by the surrounding vehicles hinders the detecting of
the sensor
●When your vehicle is pointing upwards
(caused by a heavy load in the trunk, etc.)
●When the road curves or when the lanes are
narrow
●When steering wheel operation or your posi-
tion in the lane is unstable
●When the vehicle ahead of you decelerates
suddenly

CAUTION
■Handling the radar sensor
Observe the following to ensure the cruise control system can function effectively.
Otherwise, the system may not detect correctly and could result in an accident.
●Keep the sensor and grille cover clean at all times.
Clean the sensor and grille cover with a soft cloth so you do not mark or damage
them.
●Do not subject the sensor or surr ounding area to a strong impact.
If the sensor moves even slightly off posi tion, the system may not work normally or
malfunction. If the sensor or surrounding area is subject to a strong impact, always
have the area inspected and adjusted by your Lexus dealer.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not attach accessories or stickers to the sensor, grille cover or surrounding area.
●Do not modify or paint the sensor and grille cover.
●If the radar sensor needs to be replaced, contact your Lexus dealer.

While driving on a road that has lane markers, this system recognizes the lane
markers using a camera as a sensor to alert the driver when the vehicle deviates
from its lane.
If the system judges that the vehicle has deviated from its lane, it alerts the driver
using a buzzer and indications on the multi-information display.

■Temporary cancelation of the LDA system functions
If any of the following occurs, the LDA system functions will be temporarily canceled. The
functions will resume after the necessar y operating conditions have returned.
●The turn signal lever is operated.
●The vehicle speed deviates from the operating range of the LDA system functions.
●When the lane lines cannot be recognized while driving.
●When the lane departure warning sounds.
The lane departure warning function will no t operate again for a several seconds after it
has been activated, even if the vehicle leaves the lane again.
■The lane departure warning
Depending on the audio system sound level or air conditioning fan noise while the audio
system or air conditioning system is in use, it may be difficult to hear the warning sound.
■After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA system may not be available and a warning message ( P. 486) will be dis-
played for a while after driving has started. When the temperature in the cabin decreases
and the temperature around the camera sensor ( P. 202) becomes suitable for its
operation, the functions will begin to operate.
■If there are lane markers on only one side of the vehicle
The lane departure warning will not operate fo r the side on which lane markers could not
be recognized.
■Conditions in which the functi on may not operate correctly
In the following situations, the camera sensor may be unable to recognize lane markers
causing the lane departure warn ing function to operate incorrectly. However, this does
not indicate a malfunction.
●When driving through an area with no lane markers, such as a tollbooth, a crossing or
before a ticket checkpoint
●When driving on a sharp curve
●When lane markers are extremely narrow or extremely wide
●When the vehicle leans to one side an unus ual amount due to a heavy load or improper
tire inflation pressure
●When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is extremely
short
●When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the system to rec-
ognize compared to white markers.)
●When the lane markers are broken, Botts’ dots (raised pavement markers) or stones
●When the lane markers are on a curb etc.
●When lane markers are obscured or partially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
●When there are shadows on the road running parallel with lane markers, or if a shadow
covers the lane markers
●When driving on a particularly brig ht road surface, such as concrete
●When driving on a road surface that is bright due to reflected light
●When driving in a location where the light level changes rapi dly, such as the entrance to
or exit from a tunnel
●When sunlight or the headlights of oncoming vehicles are shining directly into the cam-
era lens
