extended period of time.
Doing so may damage the power steering pump. ●
When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to avoid damaging
the wheels, underside of the vehicle, etc. ■

LX570_OM_OM60R07U_(U) 4-5. Using the driving support systems■
Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when ●
The shift lever is in D or range 4 or higher of S has been selected.●
Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift switch (vehicles with
paddle shift switches). ●
Vehicle speed is at or above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).
However, when a preceding vehicle is detected, the dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range can be set even if the vehicle speed is below approximately 30 mph
(50 km/h). ■
Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the
set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehi-
cle speed may decrease below the set speed in order to maintain the distance to the pre-
ceding vehicle. ■
When the vehicle stops while follow-up cruising ●
Pushing the lever up while the vehicle ahead stops will resume follow-up cruising if the
vehicle ahead starts off within approximatel y 3 seconds after the lever is pushed up.●
If the vehicle ahead starts off within 3 seco nds after your vehicle stops, follow-up cruis-
ing will be resumed. ■
Automatic cancelation of vehicle- to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the following situ-
ations: ●
Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) when there are no
vehicles ahead. ●
The preceding vehicle leaves the lane when yo ur vehicle is following at a vehicle speed
at or below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h). Otherwise, the sensor can not properly
detect the vehicle. (“CRUISE NOT AVAILA BLE No Preceding Vehi cles” is displayed
on the multi-information display) ●
VSC is activated. ●
Active TRAC is activated for a period of time. ●
When the VSC or Active TR AC system is turned off.●
When second start mode is set. ●
The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way. ●
Pre-collision braking is activated. ●
The parking brake is operated. ●
The vehicle is stopped by system control on a steep incline. ●
The following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The vehicle has been stopped for about 3 minutes ●
The switching operation continues for 5 seco nds or more after the center differential
lock switch has been operated.
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any other rea-
son, there may be a malfunction in th e system. Contact your Lexus dealer.

Brake system operation sound
If the brakes are applied automatically while the vehicle is in vehicle-to-vehicle distance
control mode, a brake system operation soun d may be heard. This does not indicate a
malfunction. ■
Warning messages and buzzers for dynamic ra dar cruise control with full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are used to indicate a system malfunction or to inform
the driver of the need for ca ution while driving. If a warn ing message is shown on the
multi-information display, read the message and follow the instructions.■
When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depending on the conditions, operate the brake pedal
when deceleration of the system is insuff icient or operate the accelerator pedal when
acceleration is required.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types of vehicles, the approach
warning (  P. 282) may not be activated.●
Vehicles that cut in suddenly ●
Vehicles traveling at low speeds ●
Vehicles that are not moving in the same lane ●

Driving ■
Automatic cruise control cancelation
Cruise control will stop main taining the vehicle speed in an y of the following situations:●
Actual vehicle speed falls more than appr oximately 10 mph (16 km/h) below the preset

LX570_OM_OM60R07U_(U) 4-5. Using the driving support systems
Lock the center differential when your
vehicle’s wheels get stuck in a ditch or
when driving on a slippery or bumpy
surface. The center differential lock indicator will
come on.
Unlock the center differential after the
wheels have been fr eed, or after moving
to a flat, non-slippery surface.
To unlock the center differential, push the switch again.

Shifting from H4 to L4
Stop the vehicle completely with brake pedal held down.
Shift the shift lever to N.
Push and shift the four-wheel drive control switch to L4. Maintain this condition until the low sp eed four-wheel drive indicator turns on.■
Shifting from L4 to H4
Stop the vehicle completely with brake pedal held down.
Shift the shift lever to N.
Push and shift the four-wheel drive control switch to H4. Maintain this condition until the low sp eed four-wheel drive indicator turns off.■
The four-wheel drive control switch can be operated when ●
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode. ●
The shift lever is in the N position. ●
The vehicle is stopped completely. ■
The low speed four-wheel drive indicator light
The indicator light blinks while shifting between H4 and L4.■
Advice for driving on slippery roads ●
If you shift the four-wheel drive control switch to L4 and the shift lever to the 2 range of
S or D (vehicles with paddle shift switches) while driving in steep off-road areas, the
output of the brake can be co ntrolled effectively by the Ac tive TRAC, which assists the
driver to control the driving power of 4 wheels. ●
Use the 1 range of S or D (vehicles with pa ddle shift switches) for maximum power and
traction when your wheels get stuck or when driving down a steep incline.Center differential lock/unlock switch

The center differential lock indicator light
The indicator light blinks while locking/unlocking the center differential.■
The center differential lock/unlock switch can be operated when ●
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode. ●
The vehicle speed is less than 62 mph (100 km/h). ■
Locking/unlocking the center differential●
When the four-wheel drive control switch is in L4 with the center differential locked,
VSC is automatically turned off. (The center differential lock and VSC OFF indicator
lights come on.) ●
If the operation is not completed, the center di fferential lock indicato r blinks. If the indi-
cator light does not turn off when unlocking the center diff erential, drive straight ahead
while accelerating or decelera ting, or drive in reverse.●
If the center differential lock/unlock is no t completed within 5 se conds while the cruise
control system is on, cancel the cruise control system.■
If the low speed four-wheel driv e indicator light or the center differential lock indicator
light blinks ●
If the low speed four-wheel drive indicator lig ht continues to blink when using the four-
wheel drive control switch, st op the vehicle completely, move the shift lever to N and
operate the switch again. ●
If the shift lever is moved before the low speed four-wheel drive indicator turns on/off,
the transfer mode may not be shifted completely. The transfer mode disengages both
the front and rear driveshafts from the po wertrain and allows the vehicle to move
regardless of the shift position. (At this time , the indicator blinks and the buzzer sounds.)
Therefore, the vehicle is free to roll even if the automatic transmission is in P. You or
someone else could be seriously injured. You must complete the shifting of the transfer
mode.
To complete the shifting, stop the vehicle co mpletely, return the shift lever to N, and
confirm that the shift was completed (the indicator turns on/off). ●
If the engine coolant temperature is too low, the four-wheel drive control system may
not be able to shift. When the engine is warmer operate the switch again.
If the low speed four-wheel drive indicator light or the center differential lock indicator
light continues to blink even after attempting the above, there may be a malfunction in
the engine, the brake system or the four-wheel drive system. In this case, you may not be
able to shift between H4 and L4, and the cent er differential lock may not be operable.
Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately.
