NOTICE
■In the following situations, the LDA will not work, or will not perform reliably
●When the lane markers are interrupted or are not present, such as before a toll-
booth.
●When the lane markers are only on one side of the road.
●When driving on a sharp curve.
●When lanes are extremely narrow or extremely wide.
●When the vehicle leans to one side an unusual amount due to a heavy load or
improper tire inflation pressure.
●When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is
extremely short.
●When the lane markers are broken or when “Botts’ dots” or “Raised pavement
markers” can be seen.
●When the lane markers are obscured or partially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
●When driving on a particularly bright road surface, such as concrete.
●When driving on a road surface that is bright due to reflected light.
●When driving in a location where the light level changes rapidly, such as the
entrance to or exit from a tunnel.
●When sunlight or the headlights of oncoming vehicles are shining directly into the
camera lens.
●When pavement lane markers are difficult to see due to rain, snow, fog, etc.
●When driving on a road surface that is wet due to rain, standing water, etc.
●When the vehicle experiences strong up-a nd-down motion such as when driving
on an extremely rough road or on a seam in the pavement.
●When driving on roads that are branching or merging.

CAUTION
■TRAC/Active TRAC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slippery road
surfaces, even if the TRAC/Active TRAC is operating.
Do not drive the vehicle in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■Hill- start assist control does not operate effectively when
Do not overly rely on the hill-start assist co ntrol. The hill-start assist control may not
operate effectively on steep incl ines and roads covered with ice.
■When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes and a warning buzzer sounds. Always drive carefully.
Reckless driving may cause an accident. Ex ercise particular care when the indica-
tor light flashes and a buzzer sounds.
■When the TRAC or Active TRAC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road conditions. As
these are the systems to ensure vehicle stability and driving force, do not turn the
TRAC or Active TRAC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the same size, brand, tread pattern and total load
capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recommended tire
inflation pressure level.
The ABS/Multi Terrain ABS and VSC systems will not function correctly if different
tires are installed on the vehicle.
Contact your Lexus dealer for further info rmation when replacing tires or wheels.

■Tire chain installation
Observe the following precautions when installing and removing chains:
●Install and remove tire chains in a safe location.
●Install tire chains on the rear tires only. Do not install tire chains on the front tires.
●Install tire chains on rear tires as tightly as possible. Retighten chains after driv-
ing 1/4 - 1/2 mile (0.5 - 1.0 km).
●Install tire chains following the instructions provided with the tire chains.
CAUTION
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or serious
injury.
●Use tires of the size specified.
●Maintain the recommended level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75 mph (120 km/h), regardless of the type of snow tires
being used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just some wheels.

CAUTION
■Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely, and may
cause death or serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being used,
or 30 mph (50 km/h), whichever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden turns and braking, as use of chains may adversely affect vehicle
handling.
●Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle control is
maintained.
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow tires
Request repairs or replacement of snow tire s from Lexus dealers or legitimate tire
retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the operation of
the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
■Fitting tire chains
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly when
tire chains are fitted.
