WARNING
■Before using dynamic radar cruise
control
●Driving safely is the sole responsibility
of the driver. Do not rely solely on the
system, and drive safely by always pay-
ing careful attention to your surround-
ings.
●The dynamic radar cruise control pro-
vides driving assistance to reduce the
driver’s burden. However, there are
limitations to the assistance provided.
Read the following conditions care-
fully. Do not overly rely on this system
and always drive carefully.
• When the sensor ma y not be correctly
detecting the vehicle ahead:
P.177
• Conditions under which the vehi- cle-to-vehicle distance control mode
may not function correctly:
P.177
●Set the speed appropriately depend-
ing on the speed limit, traffic flow, road
conditions, weather conditions, etc.
The driver is responsible for checking
the set speed.
●Even when the system is functioning
normally, the condition of the preced-
ing vehicle as detected by the system
may differ from the condition
observed by the driver. Therefore, the
driver must always remain alert, assess
the danger of each situation and drive
safely. Relying on this system or assum-
ing the system ensures safety while
driving can lead to an accident, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●Switch the dynamic radar cruise con-
trol off using the “ON/OFF” button
when not in use.

1Pulling the lever toward you can-
cels the speed control.
The speed control is also canceled when
the brake pedal is depressed.
2Pushing the lever up resumes the
cruise control and returns vehicle
speed to the set speed.
However, cruise control does not resume
when the vehicle speed is approximately
25 mph (40 km/h) or less.
When your vehicle is too close to a
vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is
not possible, the display will flash and
the buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
An example of this would be if another
driver cuts in front of you while you are
following a vehicle. Depress the brake
pedal to ensure an appropriate vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance.
■Warnings may not occur when
In the following instances, warnings
may not occur even when the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance is small.
 When the speed of the preceding
vehicle matches or exceeds your
vehicle speed
 When the preceding vehicle is trav-
eling at an extremely slow speed
 Immediately after the cruise control
speed was set
 When depressing the accelerator
pedal
When constant speed control mode is
selected, your vehicle will maintain a
set speed without controlling the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance. Select this
mode only when vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance control mode does not function
correctly due to a dirty radar sensor,
etc.

may be a malfunction in the system. Con-
tact 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
sound may be heard. This does not indicate
a malfunction.
■Warning messages and buzzers for
dynamic radar cruise control
Warning messages and buzzers are used to
indicate a system malfunction or to inform
the driver of the need for caution while driv-
ing. If a warning 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 insuffi-
cient 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.175) may not be activated.
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the same
lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends (trailers
with no load on board, etc.)
●Motorcycles travelin g in the same lane
●When water or snow thrown up by the
surrounding vehicles hinders the detect-
ing of the sensor
●When your vehicle is pointing upwards
(caused by a heavy load in the luggage
compartment, etc.)
■Conditions under which the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance control mode
may not function correctly
In the case of the following conditions,
operate the brake pedal (or accelerator
pedal, depending on the situation) as nec-
essary.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly
detect vehicles ahead, the system may not
operate properly.
●When the road curves or when the lanes
are narrow
●When the vehicle ahead of you deceler-
ates suddenly
●When driving on a road surrounded by a
structure, such as in a tunnel or on a
bridge
●When the vehicle speed is decreasing to
the set speed after the vehicle acceler-
ates by depressing the accelerator pedal

WARNING
■When using the intuitive parking
assist
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle
being unable to be driven safely and pos-
sibly cause an accident.
●Do not use the sensor at speeds in
excess of 6 mph (10 km/h).
●The sensors’ detection areas and reac-
tion times are limited. When moving
forward or reversing, check the areas
surrounding the vehicle (especially the
sides of the vehicle) for safety, and
drive slowly, using the brake to control
the vehicle’s speed.
●Do not install accessories within the
sensors’ detection areas.
●The area directly under the bumpers is
not detected.
Thin posts or objects lower than a sen-
sor may not be detected when
approached, even if they have been
detected once.
■When to disable the function
In the following situations, disable the
function as it may operate even though
there is no possibility of a collision.
●The vehicle is equipped with a fender
pole, wireless antenna or fog lights.
●The front or rear bumper or a sensor
receives a strong impact.
●A non-genuine Lexus suspension
(lowered suspension, etc.) is installed.
●Towing eyelets are installed.
●A backlit license plate is installed.
■When using intuitive parking assist
In the following situations, the system
may not function correctly due to a sen-
sor malfunction, etc. Have the vehicle
checked by your Lexus dealer.
●The intuitive parking assist operation
display flashes or shows continuously,
and a buzzer sounds when no objects
are detected.
●If the area around a sensor collides
with something, or is subjected to
strong impact.
●If the bumper or grille collides with
something.
●If the display flashes or is displayed
continuously and a buzzer does not
sound, except when the mute function
has been turned on.
●If a display error oc curs, first check the
sensor.
If the error occurs even when there is
no ice, snow or mud on the sensor, it is
likely that the sensor is malfunctioning.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or
steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor mal-
functioning.
●When using a high pressure washer to
wash the vehicle, do not spray the sen-
sors directly, as doing so may cause a
sensor to malfunction.
●When using steam to clean the vehicle,
do not direct steam too close to the
sensors as doing so may cause a sen-
sor to malfunction.
