Before driving
CAUTION
■When driving:
●Do not adjust the position of the driver’s seat while driving. 
Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
●Do not place a cushion between the driv er or passenger and the seat back. 
A cushion may prevent correct posture from being achieved and reduce the
ef
fect of the seat belt and head restraint, increasing the risk of injury to the driver
or passenger.
●Do not place anything under the front seats. 
Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and
sto
p the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident. The adjustment
mechanism may also be damaged.
■Adjusting the seat position:
●Do not recline the seat more than necessary when the vehicle is in motion, to
reduce the risk of sliding under the lap belt. 
If the seat is too reclined during an accident, the lap belt may slide past the hips
and
apply restraint forces directly to th e abdomen or your neck may contact the
shoulder belt, increasing the risk of death or serious injury.
●Take care when adjusting the seat positi on, to ensure that other passengers are
not injured by the moving seat.
●Do not put your hands under the seat or ne ar the moving parts, to avoid injury to
hands or fingers. 
Fingers or hands may become ja
mmed in the seat mechanism.

2-4. Using other driving systems
CAUTION
■Conditions which hinder the laser cruise control’s vehicle detection capability
A delay in detection of a vehicle may occur in the following situations. You must
ap
ply the brakes manually to avoid accidents.
• The vehicle ahead has higher ground clearance, meaning the reflectors are in a higher position
.
• The rear section of the vehicle ahead is extremely dirty.
• Surrounding vehicles are fl in
ging up water or snow.
• Your front view is obscured by excessive exhaust smoke.
• Protective film is attached to the reflectors of the vehicle ahead, or they are d
amaged.
• Reflectors are not installed on the vehicle ahead.
• Heavy luggage in your trunk or on your r
ear seats causes the nose of your vehi-
cle to rise.
• A vehicle cuts in at short range.
• A motorcycle is traveling along the side of the same lane
■To ensure the radar/laser cruise control system functions correctly
●Keep the radar sensor and grille cover/la ser sensor glass clean. When cleaning,
use a soft cloth and be careful not to damage the sensor or grille cover.
●Avoid strong impacts around the sensor, as incorrect sensor alignment will result
in system malfunction. A special device is required to adjust the sensor alignment.
See your Lexus dealer for adjustment.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not affix stickers (including transparent stickers), or attach accessories
around the sensor or grille cover/sensor glass.
●Do not modify or paint the grille cover. When replacing the cover, be sure to use
a genuine Lexus cover. *
