Before driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■

minated. If the AIR BAG OFF indicator is illuminated, ask the passenger to sit up
straight, well back in the seat, feet on the floor, and with the seat belt worn cor-
rectly. If the AIR BAG OFF in dicator still remain illumi nated, either ask the pas-
senger to move to the second seat, or if that is not possible, move the front
passenger seat fully rearward.●
When it is unavoidable to install the forw ard-facing child restraint system on the
front passenger seat, install the child restraint syst em on the front passenger seat
in the proper order. ( P. 151)●
Do not modify or remove the front seat. ●
Do not kick the front passeng er seat or subject it to severe impact. Otherwise,
the SRS warning light may come on to indicate a malfunction in the detection sys-
tem. In this case, contact your Lexus dealer immediately. ●
Do not use a seat accessory, such as a cushion or seat cover, that covers the seat
cushion surface. ●
Child restraint systems installed on the se cond seat should not contact the front

When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) ■ Shift ranges and their functions
● Automatically selecting gears betw een 1 and 6 according to vehicle
speed and driving conditions. But, the gear is limited according to
selected shift range.
● You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force.
● A lower shift range will provide grea ter engine braking force than a
higher shift range, and the engine speed will also increase. ■
Paddle shift switches (if equipped) ●
When the “-” paddle shift switch is operated in the “D” position, a shift range will
be automatically selected. The highest gear of the first shift range will be one
gear lower than the gear in use during normal “D” position driving. ●
Automatic deactivation of shift range selection in the “D” position
Shift range selection in the “D” position w ill be deactivated in the following situa-
tions:
• When the vehicle comes to a stop
• If the accelerator pedal is depressed for longer than a certain period of time
in one shift range■
“S” mode ●
When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever or paddle shift switch
toward “+” sets the shift range to “6”. ●
To prevent excessive engine speed, a function was adopted that automatically
selects a higher shift range before the engine speed becomes too high. ●
To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that automatically
selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.■
Downshifting restrict ions warning buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving perf ormance, downshifting operation may some-
times be restricted. In some circumstances, downsh ifting may not be possible even
when the shift lever or a paddle shift swit ch (if equipped) is operated. (The warning
buzzer will sound twice.)
