LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) Event data recorder This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an
EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is desi gned to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short peri od of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenge r safety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal;
and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a nontrivial crash situation
occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no
personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However,
other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type
of personally identifying data routinel y acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties,
such as law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information
if they have access to the vehicle or the EDR.

Conditions affecting operation
The smart access system with push-button start uses weak radio waves. In the fol-
lowing situations, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle
may be affected, preventing the smart access system with push-button start, wire-
less remote control and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping:  P. 8 6 7 )●
When the electronic key battery is depleted ●
Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large display,
airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise●
When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wire-
less communication devices ●
When the electronic key is in contact wi th, or is covered by the following metal-
lic object
• Card to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs ●
When multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity ●
When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby●
When carrying or using the electronic key together with the following devices
that emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or person al digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems ●
If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the rear
window

1281-7. Safety information
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ■
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS front airbags) ●
The SRS front airbag will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set
threshold level (the level of force corres ponding to an approximately 12 - 18 mph
[20 - 30 km/h] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa-
tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which
can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which
the front of the vehicle “underrides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck●
Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-
sioners will activate. ●
The SRS front airbags for the front passenger will not activate if there is not a
passenger sitting in the front passenger seat. However, the front airbags for the
front passenger may deploy if luggage is pu t in the seat, even if the seat is unoc-
cupied.■
SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield air-
bags) ●
The SRS side airbags and SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of
an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding
to the impact force produced by an ap proximately 3300 lb. [1500 kg] vehicle
colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the vehicle ori-
entation at an approximate speed of 12 - 18 mph [20 - 30 km/h]). ●
The SRS curtain shield airbags will deploy in the event of vehicle rollover.

LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ■
Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a colli-
sion
The SRS front may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your
vehicle. Some examples are shown in the illustration.
The SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy under the situations shown in the
illustration.
■
Types of collisions that may not de ploy the SRS airbag (front airbags)
The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or
rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal collision. But,
whenever a collision of any type causes sufficient forward deceleration of the vehi-
cle, deployment of the SRS front airbags may occur. ●
Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard
surface ●
Falling into or jumping over a deep hole ●
Landing hard or falling
●
The angle of vehicle tip-up is marginal. ●
The vehicle skids and hits curb stone.
●
Collision from the side ●
Collision from the rear ●
Vehicle rollover

Before driving
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) Deactivating the curtain shield airbags in a vehicle rollover
ON/OFF (hold for a few seconds) The RSCA OFF indicator turns on
(only when the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON
mode.)
The roll sensing function for the
curtain shield airbags and seat belt
pretensioners will turn back on
automatically each time the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch is
turned to IGNITION ON mode.■
This switch only should be used
In a situation where the inflation is not desired (such as during extreme off road driv-
ing). ■
Operating conditions when the RSCA OFF indicator is on ●
The curtain shield airbag and seat belt pretensioner will not activate in a vehicle
rollover. ●
The curtain shield airbag will activate in a severe side impact. ●
The pretensioner will activate in a severe frontal collision.
CAUTION■
While normal driving
Make sure the RSCA OFF indicator is not turned on. If it is left on, the curtain shield
airbag will not activate in the event of an accident, which may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
