2163-3. Adjusting the seats
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
CAUTION
■Power rear seats
●Seat adjustment
To reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt during a collision, do not recline the
seat more than necessary.
If the seat is too reclined, the lap belt may slide past the hips and apply restraint
forces directly to the abdomen, or yo ur neck may contact the shoulder belt,
increasing the risk of death or serious injury in the event of an accident.
Adjustments should not be made while driving as the seat may unexpectedly
move and cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●When adjusting the seat position and ottoman angle (vehicles with relaxation
seat)
Keep sufficient footwell space to prevent your feet from being caught by the front
seat.
●When returning the rear seats to the neutral position
To avoid injuring the rear passengers, wait until they have gotten out of the vehicle
before operating the switch.
●Using the ottoman (vehicles with relaxation seat)
• Do not sit on the ottoman.
If someone sits on the ottoman, the seat belt cannot be fitted properly, and
they may be thrown from the seat, resulting in death or serious injury in the
event of an accident or sudden braking.
• When getting in or out of the vehicle, retract the ottoman. If the ottoman is not
retracted, it may cause a fall, resulting in injury.
• Do not operate the ottoman when the vehicle is moving.
• Do not allow anyone to put their hands or feet under the passenger seat when
stowing the ottoman.
■Using the pelvic support seat with seat vibrator and rear seat relaxation system
●Those who are pregnant, have recently given birth, or suffer from ailments requir-
ing rest (heart disease etc.) should consult a doctor before use.
●Do not allow children to use the pelvic support seat vibration function or the rear
seat relaxation function.
●Do not use immediately after consuming a meal or alcohol, or for an extended
period of time.
●If you feel sick while using the pelvic support seat vibration function or the rear
seat relaxation function, immediately discontinue use.

Operation of each component
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
■When using the rear seat head restraints
Manual type:
Always raise the head restraint one level from the stowed position when using.
Rear center seat:
Make sure to pull the head restraint forward when using the rear center seat.
■Active head restraints (if equipped)
●The active head restraint on the front passenger seat will not activate if the seat is
unoccupied. However, it may activate during a rear-end collision if luggage is in the
seat or the seat belt is fastened.
●Once the active head restraint has activated, the head restraint remains protruded
forward and upward. After it has operated, have it repaired at your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
■Head restraint precautions
Observe the following precautions regarding the head restraints. Failure to do so
may result in death or serious injury.
●Use the head restraints designed for each respective seat.
●Adjust the head restraints to the correct position at all times.
●Manual type: After adjusting the head restraints, push down on them and make
sure they are locked in position.
●Do not drive with the head restraints removed.
■The active head restraint on the front passenger seat (if equipped)
Do not place anything, such as a cushion, on the front passenger’s seat.
Doing so will disperse the passenger’s weight, which may prevents the sensor from
detecting the passenger’s weight properly. As a result, the active head restraint
may not activate in the event of an accident.
■Active head restraint precautions (if equipped)
●Do not put head restraint covers.
●For removal, installation, modification, disassembly or disposal of the active head
restraints, contact your Lexus dealer.
Inappropriate handling of the active head restraints may prevent them from oper-
ating properly during an accident.

The function will set to ON mode each time the engine switch is turned to IGNI-
TION ON mode.
Pressing the button turns the function to OFF mode. (The indicator also turns off.)

2343-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
When the mirror select switch is in the “L” or “R” position, the outside rear
view mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is
reversing in order to give a better view of the ground.
To disable this function, move the mirror select switch to the neutral posi-
tion (between “L” and “R”).
■Adjusting the mirror angle when the vehicle is reversing
With the shift lever in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired position.
The adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically
tilt to the memorized angle whenever the shift lever is shifted to R from
next time.
The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the normal
position (angle adjusted with the shift lever in other than R). Therefore, if the
normal position is changed after adjustment, the tilt position will also change.
When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.
■Mirror angle can be adjusted when
The engine switch is in ACCE SSORY or IGNITION ON mode.
■When the mirrors are fogged up
The outside rear view mirrors can be cleared using the mirror defoggers. Turn on the
rear window defogger to turn on the outside rear view mirror defoggers. ( P. 445)
■Automatic adjustment of the mirror angle
A desired mirror face angle can be entered to memory and recalled automatically
by the driving position memory. ( P. 218)
■Auto anti-glare function
When the anti-glare inside rear view mirror is set to automatic mode, the outside
rear view mirrors will activate in conjunction with the anti-glare inside rear view mir-
ror to reduce reflected light. ( P. 230)
■Using automatic mode in cold weather
When automatic mode is used in cold weather, the door mirror could freeze up and
automatic stowing and return may not be possible. In this event, remove any ice and
snow from the door mirror, then either operate the mirror using manual mode or
move the mirror by hand.

2423-5. Opening, closing the windows and moon roof
LS460/LS460L_GE (OM50G06E)
■When the moon roof does not close normally
Perform the following procedure:
●If the moon roof closes but then re-opens slightly
Stop the vehicle.
Press and hold the “CLOSE” switch.*1
The moon roof will close, reopen and pause for approximately 10 seconds.*2
Then it will close again, tilt up and pause for approximately 1 second. Finally, it
will tilt down, open and close.
Check to make sure that the moon roof is completely closed and then release
the switch.
●If the moon roof tilts down but then tilts back up
Stop the vehicle.
Press and hold the “UP” switch*1 until the moon roof moves into the tilt up posi-
tion and stops.
Release the “UP” switch once and then press and hold the “UP” switch again.*1
The moon roof will pause for approximatel y 10 seconds in the tilt up position.*2
Then it will adjust slightly and pause for approximately 1 second. Finally, it will tilt
down, open and close.
Check to make sure that the moon roof is completely closed and then release
the switch.
*1: If the switch is released at the incorrect time, the procedure will have to be per-
formed again from the beginning.
*2: If the switch is released after the above mentioned 10 second pause, automatic
operation will be disabled. In that case, press and hold the “CLOSE” or “UP”
switch, and the moon roof will tilt up and pause for approximately 1 second. Then
it will tilt down, open and close. Check to make sure that the moon roof is com-
pletely closed and then release the switch.
If the moon roof does not fully close even after performing the above procedure cor-
rectly, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.

■Breaking in your new Lexus
To extend the life of the vehicle, observing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 1000 km (621 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
■Drum-in-disc type parking brake system
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type parking brake system. This type of brake system
needs bedding-down of the brake shoes periodically or whenever the parking brake
shoes and/or drum are replaced. Have your Lexus dealer perform the bedding
down operation.
■Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability of the
correct fuel. ( P. 652)
■Regarding engine speed when idling (1UR-FSE engine)
When idling with the shift lever in P or N for an extensive period of time, the engine
speed may rise to approximately 1000 rpm (r/min). This is not a malfunction. After a
set period of time, the engine will return to its previous engine speed.
