Weight of the load ●
Do not exceed the maximum axle weight ra ting or the total vehicle weight rating.●
Even if the total load of occupant’s weight and the cargo load is less than the total
load capacity, do not apply the load unevenly. Improper loading may cause dete-
rioration of steering or braking control which may cause death or serious injury.■
Roof luggage carrier precautions
To use the roof rails as a roof luggage carrier, you must fit the roof rails with two or
more genuine Lexus cross rails or their equivalent.
When you load cargo on the roof luggage carrier, observe the following: ●
Place the cargo so that its weight is distributed evenly between the front and rear
axles. ●
If loading long or wide cargo, never exceed the vehicle overall length or width.
(  P. 8 8 0 )●
Before driving, make sure the cargo is securely fastened on the roof luggage car-
rier. ●
Loading cargo on the roof luggage carrier will make the center of the vehicle
gravity higher. Avoid high speeds, sudden starts, sharp turns, sudden braking or
abrupt maneuvers, otherwise it may result in loss of control or vehicle rollover
due to failure to operate this vehicle correctly and result in death or serious injury. ●
If driving for a long distance, on rough ro ads, or at high speed s, stop the vehicle
now and then during the trip to make sure the cargo remains in its place. ●
Do not exceed 154 lb. (70 kg) cargo weight on the roof luggage carrier.

When using the microphone ●
It is unnecessary to speak directly into the microphone when giving a command. ●
Wait for the confirmation beep before speaking a command. ●
Voice commands may not be recognized if:
• Spoken too quickly.
• Spoken at a low or high volume.
• The roof or windows are open.
• Passengers are talking while voice commands are spoken.
• The air conditioning speed is set high.
• The air conditioning vents are turned towards the microphone. ●
In the following conditions, the system may not recognize the command prop-
erly and using voice commands may not be possible:
• The command is incorrect or unclear. Note that certain words, accents or
speech patterns may be difficul t for the system to recognize.
• There is excessive background noise, such as wind noise.■
When searching for a track ●
A USB memory or iPod must be connected to enable track searching and play-
back. (  P. 5 4 8 , 5 5 8 )●
When a USB memory or iPod is connec ted, recognition data is created so
tracks can be searched using voice commands. ●
Recognition data is updated under the following conditions:
• When the USB memory or iPod data has changed.
• When the voice recognition language is changed. (  P. 4 1 5 )●
While the recognition data is being cr eated or being updated, a track search
cannot be performed using a voice command. ●
