LX570_OM_OM60N01U_(U)4-1. Before driving
WA R N I N G
■Trailer towing precautions
●To tow a trailer safely, use extreme care an
d drive the vehicle in accordance with the
trailer’s characteristics and operating conditions. Failure to do so could cause an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury. Vehicle stability and braking performance are
affected by trailer stability, brake setting an d performance, and the hitch. Your vehicle
will handle differently when towing a trailer.
●Set the vehicle height to the “LO” mode and turn off the 4-Wheel AHC when you
connect a trailer, otherwise the vehicle heig ht may change due to the automatic level-
ing function, and you may catch part of your body in the vehicle, resulting in an acci-
dent. ( P. 2 9 7 )
■To avoid accident or injury
●Do not exceed the TWR, unbrak ed TWR, GCWR, GVWR or GAWR.
●If the gross trailer weight is over 2000 lb. (907 kg), a sway control device with suffi-
cient capacity is required.
●If the gross trailer weight is over 5000 lb. (2268 kg), a weight distributing hitch with
sufficient capacity is required.
●Adjust the tongue weight within the approp riate range. Place heavier loads as close
to the trailer axle as possible.
●Do not exceed 65 mph (104 km/h), the posted towing speed limit or the speed limit
for your trailer as set forth in your trailer owner’s manual, whichever is lowest. Slow
down sufficiently before making a turn, in crosswinds, on wet or slippery surface, etc.
to help avoid an accident. If you experience a vehicle-trailer instability from reducing
a certain speed, slow down and make sure you keep your vehicle speed under the
speed of which you expe rience the instability.
●Do not make jerky, abrupt or sharp turns.
●Do not apply the brakes suddenly as you may skid, resulting in ja ckknifing and loss of
vehicle control. This is especially true on wet or slippery surfaces.
●Do not exceed the trailer hitch assembly weight, gross vehicle weight, gross axle
weight and trailer tongue weight capacities.
●Do not use cruise control (if equipped) or dynamic radar cruise control (if equipped)
when trailer towing.
●Slow down and downshift before descending steep or long downhill grades. Do not
make sudden downshifts while descen ding steep or long downhill grades.
●Vehicle-trailer instability is more likely on steep long down hills. Before descending
steep or long downhill grades, slow down and downshift. Do not make sudden down-
shifts when descending stee p or long downhill grades. Avoid holding the brake pedal
down too long or applying the brakes too frequently. This could cause the brakes to
overheat and result in reduced braking efficiency.

LX570_OM_OM60N01U_(U)4-2. Driving procedures
■Paddle shift switches (if equipped)
●When the “-” paddle shift switch is operated
in the D position, a shift range will be auto-
matically selected. The highest gear of the fi rst 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 will be deactivated in the following situations:
• When the vehicle comes to a stop
• If the accelerator pedal is depressed for long er than a certain period of time in one
shift range
■Driving on a downhill
On declines, there may be case where the ve hicle shifts down automatically to obtain
engine braking. As a result of the down shifting, the engine speed may increase.
■Second start mode automatic deactivation
Second start mode is automatically deactivated if the engine is turned off after driving in
second start mode.
■S mode
When the shift range is 7 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift range to
8.
■AI-SHIFT
AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver performance and
driving conditions.
AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position. (Shifting the
shift lever to the S position cancels the function.)
■When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control activated
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine braking,
engine braking will not activate because cruise control or radar cruise control will not be
canceled.
●While driving in D position (vehicles with paddle shift switches) or S mode, downshift-
ing to 7, 6, 5 or 4. ( P. 2 7 1 , 2 8 3 )
●When switching the driving mode to spor t mode while driving in D position. (P. 2 8 6 )
■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
P. 5 4 9
■If the “S” indicator does not come on ev en after shifting the shift lever to S
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operat e in the same manner as when the shift lever
is in D.)
■Downshift restriction warning buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving performa nce, downshifting operation may sometimes
be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be possible even when the
shift lever is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
