LX570_OM_OM60Q78U_(U) 4-1. Before driving
WARNING ■
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 condit ions. Failure to do so could cause an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury. Vehicle stability and braking performance are
affected by trailer st ability, brake setting and performanc e, 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 height 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. 295)■
To avoid accident or injury ●
Do not exceed the TWR, unbraked 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 trai ler 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 experien ce a vehicle-trailer in stability 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 ma y skid, resulting in jackknifing 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 with full-
speed range (if equipped) when trailer towing. ●
Slow down and downshift before descending steep or long downhill grades. Do not
make sudden downshifts while descending 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 steep or long do wnhill grades. Avoid ho lding 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_OM60Q78U_(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 first shift rang e 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 turn ed off after driving in
second start mode. ■
S mode
When the shift range is 7 or lower, holding th e 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 with full-speed range
activated
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine braking,
engine braking will not activate because crui se control or dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range 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. 269, 281)●
When switching the driving mode to sport mode while driving in D position. ( → P. 284)■
Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent ac cidental operation of the shift lever in start-
ing.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in IGNITION ON
mode and the brake pedal is being depressed.
