Recorded driving positions (except the steering wheel position) can be recalled up
to 180 seconds after the driver’s door is opened and up to 60 seconds after it is
closed again.
Front passenger's seat:
Recorded seat positions can be recalled up to 180 seconds after the front passen-
ger's door is opened.
■In order to correctly use the dr iving position memory function
If a seat position is already in the furthest possible position and the seat is operated in
the same direction, the recorded position ma y be slightly different when it is recalled.

LS600hL_U(OM50E41U)
If the vehicle detects an impact dur-
ing a rear-end collision, the front
part of the head restraint moves for-
ward and upward to help reduce the
risk of whiplash to the seat occu-
pant.
When reversing, even a small amount
of force applied from the rear, such as
a minor rear impact, may cause the
head restraints to move.
■Removing the head restraints
For removal and installation of the head restraint, contact your Lexus dealer.
■Adjusting the height of the head restraints (except rear center seat)
■Rear center seat
Make sure to pull the head restraint forward when using the rear center seat.
■Active head restraints
●The active head restraint on the front pass enger seat will not activate if the seat is
unoccupied. However, it may activate during a rear-end collision if luggage is in the
seat or the seat belt is fastened.
●Once the active head restraint has activate d, the head restraint remains protruded
forward and upward. After it has operated, have it repaired at your Lexus dealer.
Active head restraints (front seats)
Make sure that the head restraints are
adjusted so that the center of the head
restraint is closest to the top of your ears.

The vehicle height is maintained at the selected level regardless of the
number of occupants and luggage weight.
Turns high mode on/off.
When on, the “HEIGHT HIGH” indi-
cator will come on.
■Operating sound of the ai r suspension compressor
When the vehicle height is lowered, such as when entering or loading the vehicle, or
high mode is selected, the compressor may operate and a whirring sound may be
heard. This does not indicate a malfunction.
Electronically modulated air suspension
By independently controlling the da mping force of the shock absorbers
for each of the 4 wheels according to the road and driving conditions
and the selected driving mode, this system achieves ride comfort with
superior steering stability, and ensures good vehicle posture.
In addition, vehicle height can be selected according to road and driv-
ing conditions.

LS600hL_U(OM50E41U)
CAUTION
■Be sure to stop the hybrid system in the following situations in order to stop oper-
ation of the electronically modulated air suspension:
●The vehicle is parked on a curb.
●Any of the wheels is stuck in a ditch.
●It is necessary to jack up the vehicle.
●It is necessary to tow the vehicle with part of it lifted.
If the power switch remains in ON mode, the vehicle height may change, and you
may catch part of your body in the vehicle, resulting in accidental damage.

■Conditions that may trigger the system even if there is no danger of a collision
●When there is an object by the roadside at the entrance to a curve
●When passing an oncoming vehicle on a curve
●When driving over a narrow iron bridge
●When there is a metal object on the road surface
●When driving on an uneven road surface
●When passing an oncoming vehicle on a left-turn
●When your vehicle rapidly closes on the vehicle in front
●When a grade separation/interchange, sign , billboard, or other structure appears
to be directly in the vehicle’s line of travel
●When there is a metal plate in the road in front of the vehicle on a downhill slope
●When climbing a steep hill causes an overhead billboard or other metallic structure
to appear directly in the vehicle’s line of travel
●When driving under an overpass
●When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs
●When passing through certain toll gates
●When driving through a lump of steam or smoke
●When the radar sensor moves off position due to its surrounding area being sub-
jected to a strong impact
When the system is activated in the situations described above, there is also a possi-
bility that the seat belts will retract quickly and the brakes will be applied with a force
greater than normal. When the seat belt is locked in the retracted position, stop the
vehicle in a safe place, release the seat belt and refasten it.
■Obstacles not detected
The radar sensor cannot detect plastic obstacles such as traffic cones. There may
also be occasions when the sensor cannot detect pedestrians, animals, bicycles,
motorcycles, trees, or snowdrifts.
■A camera sensor cannot detect obstacles in the following situations:
●A camera sensor is directly receiving intense light, such as sunlight.
●Visibility is poor because of bad weather or other reasons.
●The sensor temperature is extremely high.
●The headlights are not turned on in dark ness such as at night or in a tunnel.

■Situations in which the pre-collision system does not function properly
The system may not function effectively in situations such as the following:
●On roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces
●If a vehicle suddenly moves in front of your vehicle, such as at an intersection
●If a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle, such as when overtaking
●In inclement weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow or sand storms
●If the vehicle is skidding when VSC is not operating
●When an extreme change in vehicle height occurs
●When only part of your vehicle’s front en d collides with, or contacts, a vehicle or
object in a frontal collision
●When the radar sensor moves off position due to its surrounding area being sub-
jected to a strong impact
●If an obstacle in front of the vehicle is small
●When the system judges that the driver performed a collision avoidance operation
via the accelerator pedal, brake pedal, or steering wheel
■Automatic cancelation of the pre-collision system
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor co ntamination, etc. that results in the sen-
sors being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-collision system will be automatically
disabled. In this case, the system will not activate even if there is a collision possibility.
■When there is a malfunction in the system
The pre-collision system warning light will flash and warning messages will be dis-
played. ( P. 495, 503)

• Directly after the BSM main switch is set to on
●Instances of the Blind Spot Monitor functi on unnecessarily detecting a vehicle and/
or object may increase under the following conditions:
• When there is only a short distance between your vehicle and a guardrail, wall etc.
• When there is only a short distance between your vehicle and a following vehi- cle
• When vehicle lanes are narrow and a ve hicle driving 2 lanes across from your
vehicle enters the detection area
• When items such as a bicycle carrier are installed on the rear of the vehicle
