■Intrusion sensor detection considerations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the following situations:
• The movement of people outside the vehicle
●Places with extreme vibrations or noises, or situations in which the vehicle is subject to
repeated impacts or vibrations:
• When parked in a parking garage
• When the vehicle is transported by a ferry, trailer, train, etc.
• When ice adhering to the vehicle is removed
• When the vehicle is in an automatic or high-pressure car wash
• When in a hail or lightning storm
■Tilt sensor detection considerations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the following situations:
●The vehicle is transported by a ferry, trailer, train, etc.
●The vehicle is parked in a parking garage.
●The vehicle is inside a car wash that moves the vehicle.
●Any of the tires loses air pressure.
●The vehicle is jacked up.
●An earthquake occurs or the road caves in.
●A window or the moon roof (if equipped) is
open.
In this case, the sensor may detect the follow-
ing:
• Wind or the movement of objects such asleaves and insects inside the vehicle
• Ultrasonic waves emitted from devices such as the intrusion sensors of other vehi-
cles
●Unstable items, such as dangling accessories
or clothes hanging on the coat hooks, are in
the vehicle.

‰ The image is difficult to see
• The vehicle is in a dark area
• The temperature around the lens is
either high or low
• The outside temperature is low
• There are water droplets on the cam- era
• It is raining or humid
• Foreign matter (mud etc.) is adhering to the camera
• There are scratches on the camera
• Sunlight or headlights are shining directly into the camera
• The vehicle is under fluorescent lights,
sodium lights, mercury lights etc.
If this happens due to these causes, it
does not indicate a malfunction.
Back up while visually checking the
vehicle’s surroundings. (Use the monitor
again once conditions have been
improved.)
The image on the rear view monitor
system screen can be adjusted.
(→ P. 335)
‰ The image is blurry
Dirt or foreign matter (such as water
droplets, snow, mud etc.) is adhering to
the camera.Rinse the camera lens with water and
wipe it clean with a soft cloth.
Wash with a mild soap if the dirt is stub-
born.
‰The image is out of alignment
The camera or surrounding area has
received a strong impact.Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
‰The fixed guide lines are very far out of alignment
The camera position is out of alignment.
Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
• The vehicle is tilted (there is a heavy
load on the vehicle, tire pressure is low
due to a tire puncture, etc.)
• The vehicle is used on an incline.If this happens due to these causes, it
does not indicate a malfunction.
Back up while visually checking the vehi-
cle’s surroundings.

■The ABS does not operate effectively when
●The limits of tire gripping performance have been exceeded (such as excessively
worn tires on a snow covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on wet or slick road.
■Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehi cle’s stopping distance. Always maintain a
safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road
●When driving over roads with potholes or uneven surfaces
■TRC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slippery road
surfaces, even if the TRC system is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always dr ive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an
accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC system is turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road conditions. As this is
the system to help ensure vehicle stability and driving force, do not turn the TRC sys-
tem off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size and of the same brand, tread pattern
and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, VSC and TRC systems will not function correctly if different tires are installed
on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modi fying the suspension will affect the driving
assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.
