The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect elec-
tronic systems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
●Dynamic radar cruise control system
●Cruise control system
●Anti-lock brake system
●SRS airbag system
●Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Lexus dealer for precautionary measures or special
instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.
Hybrid vehicles: High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approxi-
mately the same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline
powered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic
shielding.
Hybrid vehicles: Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the mobile two-way
radio.
