Before driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
When driving the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while driving.
Failing to do so may result in loss of control of the vehicle and cause an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury. ●
Do not adjust the mirrors while driving. ●
Do not drive with the mirrors folded back. ●
Both the driver and passenger side mi rrors must be extended and properly
adjusted before driving.■
When a mirror is moving
To avoid personal injury and mirror malfun ction, be careful not to get your hand
caught by the moving mirror. ■
When the mirror defoggers are operating
Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces, as they can become very hot and burn
you.
NOTICE■
If ice should jam the mirror

When driving
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION ●
When stopped on an inclined surface, use the brake pedal and parking brake to
prevent the vehicle from rolling backward or forward and causing an accident.●
Do not adjust the position of the steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or outside
rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control that can cause accidents that may
result in death or serious injury. ●
Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their bodies are
not outside the vehicle, as this may result in death or serious injury. ●
Do not drive in excess of the speed limit. Even if the legal speed limit permits it, do
not drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) unless your vehicle has high-speed capability
tires. Driving over 85 mph (140 km/h) may result in tire failure, loss of control
and possible injury. Be sure to consult a tire dealer to determine whether the tires
on your vehicle are high-speed capability tires or not before driving at such
speeds. ●
When crossing rivers, turn off height co ntrol after putting the vehicle height in
high mode, and drive at 18 mph (30 km/h) or less. Otherwise the vehicle height
may change due to the automatic leveling function, resulting in an accident.
( P. 320)■
When driving on slippery road surfaces ●
Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and reduce
your ability to control the vehi cle, resulting in an accident.●
Sudden acceleration, engine braking due to shifting, or changes in engine speed
could cause the vehicle to skid, resulting in an accident. ●
After driving through a puddle, lightly de press the brake pedal to make sure that
the brakes are functioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent the brakes
from functioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet and not func-
tioning properly, steering control may be affected, resulting in an accident.

In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the sur-
rounding brightness levels, and may flas h or expose nearby pedestrians to the
high beam. Therefore, you should consider turning the high beam on or off
manually rather than relying on the Automatic High Beam system.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms etc.)
• The windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt etc.
• The windshield is cracked or damaged.
• The inside rear view mirror or ca mera sensor is deformed or dirty.
• The camera sensor temperature is extremely high.
• Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lights or
fog lights.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights that are either switched off, dirty, are chang-
ing color, or are not aimed properly.
• When driving through an area of in termittently changi ng brightness and
darkness.
• When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or
roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-paved roads,
gravel tracks etc.)
• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a winding road.
• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mir-
ror.
• The back of a vehicle ahead is highly reflective, such as a container on a truck.
• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.
• The vehicle is listing or tilting, due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed etc.
• The Automatic High Beam indicator is flashing.
• The high beam and low beam are repe atedly being switched between in an
abnormal manner.
• The driver believes that the high be am may be causing problems or distress
to other drivers or pedestrians nearby.

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
When using the rear view monitor system
The rear view monitor system is a suppleme ntal device intended to assist the driver
when backing up. When backing up, be sure to check visually behind and all
around the vehicle before proceeding.
Observe the following precautions to avoid an accident that could result in death or
serious injuries. ●
Never depend on the rear view monitor system entirely when backing up. The
image and the position of the guide lines displayed on the screen may differ from
the actual state.
Use caution, just as you would when backing up any vehicle. ●
When parking, be sure to check that the parking space will accommodate your
vehicle before maneuvering into it. ●
Be sure to back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle speed.●
In low temperatures, the screen may darken or the image may become faint. The
image could distort when the vehicle is moving, or you may become unable to
see the image on the screen. Be sure to check direct visually and with the mirrors
all around the vehicl e before proceeding.●
The camera uses a special lens. The di stances between objects and pedestrians
that appear in the image displayed on the screen will differ from the actual dis-
tances. ( P. 292)

LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Keeping the steering wheel in that position, check your surroundings
visually and using mirrors, and back up using the distance guide lines
etc. as a reference. ( in “Parking operation”)
When the vehicle is approximatel y in the desired parking location,
parallel parking assist is comp lete. ( in “Parking operation”)
■ Parking operation
The following example describes the procedure for pulling into a park-
ing space on the right. For pulling into a parking space on the left, sub-
stitute left for right and vice versa in all steps.
Stop the vehicle in the posit ion as described below, and
straighten the steering wheel.

with the road (or the side of the
road), and in which there is
approximately 3 ft. (1 m) of space
between your vehicle and the
parked vehicle
A position in which you are half a
vehicle’s length ahead of the

wheel in its current position
Curved blue line
Curved blue line meets the cor-
ner here If you back up too quickly, you may
lose synchronization with the par-
allel parking assist.
Leaving the vehicle stopped, turn the steering wheel all the way
to the left. Be sure to turn the steering whee l only when the vehicle is stopped.
When the screen changes, keep the steering wheel in its current
position and back up. When backing up, be careful not to hit any obstacles with the right front
corner of your vehicle. Back the vehicle up slowly.
When the vehicle is parallel wi th the road or the shoulder,
straighten the steering wheel.
Check your surroundings visually and with the mirrors, then back
up using the distance guide lines as a reference, and stop.When the vehicle is approximately in the desired parking location, the
parallel parking assist is complete.STEP 8
