LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
■Vehicle customization
●When the smart entry & start system is off, the entry unlock function cannot be cus-
tomized.
●When the doors remain closed after unlocking the doors and the timer activated
automatic door lock function activates, signals will be generated in accordance
with the operational signal (Emergency flashers) function settings.
■When customizing using the Remote Touch

vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a
garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and
enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
