When trouble arises
8155-1. Essential information
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) CAUTION■
While towing ●
Use extreme caution when towing the vehicle.
Avoid sudden starts or erratic driving maneuvers which place excessive stress on
the emergency towing hook and the cables or chains. Always be cautious of the
surroundings and other vehicles while towing. ●
If the engine is not running, the power assi st for the brakes and steering will not
function, making steering and braking more difficult.
NOTICE■
To prevent causing serious damage to the transmission ●
Never tow this vehicle with the wheels on the ground. ●
Use only the front emergency towing hook or towing eyelets when towing your
vehicle.

8785-2. Steps to take in an emergency
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) If your vehicle has to be stopped in an emergency
CAUTION■
If the engine has to be turned off while driving
Power assist for the brakes and steering wh eel will be lost, making the brake pedal
harder to depress and the steering wheel heavier to turn. Decelerate as much as
possible before turning off the engine.Only in an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the vehicle
in the normal way, stop the vehicle using the following procedure:
Steadily step on the brake pe dal with both feet and firmly
depress it. Do not pump the brake pedal repeatedly as this will increase the
effort required to slow the vehicle.
Shift the shift lever to “N”.
If the shift lever is shifted to “N”
After slowing down, stop the vehicl e in a safe place by the road.
Stop the engine.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted to “N”
Keep depressing the brake pedal with both feet to reduce vehi-
cle speed as much as possible.
To stop the engine, press and
hold the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch for 2 consecutive
seconds or more, or press it
briefly 3 times or more in suc-
cession.
