■The Automatic High Beam can be operated when
The power switch is in ON mode.
■Camera sensor detection information
●High beam may not be automatically turned off in the following situations:
• When oncoming vehicles su ddenly appear from a curve
• When the vehicle is cut in front of by another
• When oncoming or preceding vehicles are hidden from sight due to repeated
curves, road dividers or roadside trees
●High beam may be turned off if an oncoming vehicle that is using fog lights without
using the headlights is detected.
●House lights, street lights, red traffic signals, and illuminated billboards or signs may
cause the high beam to turn off.
●The following factors may affect the amount of time taken to turn high beam on or
off:
• The brightness of headligh ts, fog lights, and tail lights of oncoming and preced-
ing vehicles
• The movement and direction of oncoming and preceding vehicles
• When a oncoming or preceding vehicle on ly has operational lights on one side
• When a oncoming or preceding vehicle is a two-wheeled vehicle

CAUTION
■When the sensor may not be correctly detecting a vehicle ahead
Apply the brakes as necessary when any of the following types of vehicles are in
front of you.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types of vehicles, the
approach warning ( P. 264) will not be activated, and a fatal or serious accident
may result.
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are stationary
●Motorcycles traveling in the same lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends (trailers with no load on board etc.)
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
Details about other people/objects the system will not detect:
 P. 2 6 9
■Conditions under which the vehicle-to-veh icle distance control may not function
correctly
Apply the brakes as necessary in the following conditions as the radar sensor may
not be able to correctly detect vehicles ahead, and a fatal or serious accident may
result:
●When water or snow splashed by the su rrounding vehicles hinders the function-
ing of the sensor
●When your vehicle is tilted upwards (due to a heavy load in the trunk etc.)
●When the road curves or when the lanes are narrow
●When steering wheel operation or your position in the lane is unstable
●When the vehicle ahead decelerates suddenly as the system is not able to
respond to sudden braking.

Lane departure warning function
If the system judges that the vehicle may deviate from its lane, it alerts
the driver using rapid beeping, indi cations on the multi-information dis-
play, and a sensory warning* given via the steering wheel.
*: A slight steering torque is applied for a short period of time in the direction of the
center of the lane.
Lane keeping assist function• This function will be active when the vehicle-to -vehicle distance con-
trol mode of the dynamic radar crui se control with full-speed range
(  P. 257) is set with vehicle sp eed above approximately 45 mph
(72 km/h) and while the lane depa rture warning function is active.
• When the lane keeping assist fu nction is active, a slight steering
torque will be applied, to help the driver maintain the vehicle inside
the lane.
The lane keeping assist function will be temporarily canceled if the steering
wheel is not operated, or if you continue driving with your hands lightly touch-
ing the steering wheel. ( P. 2 7 8 )

■Temporary cancelation of the LKA system functions
If any of the following occurs, the LKA system functions will be temporarily canceled.
The functions will resume after the necessary operating conditions have returned.
●The steering wheel is turned as far as necessary to cause the vehicle to change
lanes.
●When the system detects no-handed driving. (The lane keeping assist function will
be temporarily canceled, but the lane departure warning function will continue.)
●The turn signal lever is operated.
●The vehicle speed deviates from the operating range of the LKA system functions.
(The buzzer will beep twice when the lane keeping assist function is being can-
celed.)
●When the lane lines cannot be recognized while driving.
●When the wiper switch is in the high speed position or is set to “AUTO” mode with
the wipers operating at high speed. (The la ne keeping assist function will be tempo-
rarily canceled, but the lane departure warning function will continue.)
●If the vehicle crosses a line for approximately half a minute or more. (The lane keep-
ing assist function will be temporarily canceled, but the lane departure warning
function will continue.)
●When the lane departure warning function is activated.
The lane departure warning function will not operate again for several seconds
after it has been activated, even if the vehicle leaves the lane again.
■The lane departure warning
It may be difficult to feel the sensory warning depending on the road conditions.
■No-handed driving warning
If the steering wheel is not operated for approximately 15 seconds on a straight road
or approximately 5 seconds on a curve, the buzzer will beep twice, indicators on the
multi-information display will flash, and the lane keeping assist function will be tem-
porarily canceled. If you drive the vehicle with your hands lightly touching the steer-
ing wheel, this may also be detected as no-handed driving.

2804-5. Using the driving support systems
LS600hL_U(OM50E41U)
●When driving on a road surface that is wet due to rain, previous rainfall, standing
water, etc.
●When the vehicle experiences strong up-and-down motion such as when driving
on an extremely rough road or on a seam in the pavement
●When headlight brightness at nighttime is reduced due to dirt on the lenses, or
when the headlights are misaligned
●When driving with a strong crosswind
●When driving on winding roads or roads that are uneven
●When driving on rough or unpaved roads
■When changing the tires
Depending on the tires used, sufficient performance may not be maintainable.
■Warning messages for LKA
Warning messages are used to indicate a system malfunction or to inform the driver
of the need for caution while driving. ( P. 5 0 3 )
CAUTION
■Before using the LKA system
Do not rely solely on the LKA system. The LKA system does not drive the vehicle
automatically, nor does it reduce the amount of care you need to take. As such, the
driver must always assume full responsi bility for understanding his/her surround-
ings, for operating the steering wheel to correct the driving line, and for driving
safely.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an accident.
■To avoid operating the LKA by mistake
Switch the LKA off using the LKA switch when not in use.

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.
