CAUTION
nSituations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise control in any of the following situations.
Doing so may result in inappropriate control of speed and could cause serious or
fatal accident.
lIn heavy traffic
lOn roads with sharp bends
lOn winding roads
lOn slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow
lOn steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between sharp up and
down gradients
lAt entrances to expressways
lWhen weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sensors
from functioning correctly (fog, snow, sandstorm, etc.)
lWhere buzzer can be heard often
nWhen the radar sensor may not be correctly detecting the 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 prox-
imity alarm (→P. 392) will not be activated, and an accident may result.
lVehicles that cut in suddenly
lVehicles traveling at low speeds

When driving
CAUTION
nConditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle 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 an accident may result.
lWhen water or snow thrown up by the surrounding vehicles hinders the function-
ing of the sensor
lWhen your vehicle is pointing upwards (caused by a heavy load in the trunk, etc.)
lWhen the road curves or when the lanes are narrow
lWhen steering wheel operation or your position in the lane is unstable
lWhen the vehicle ahead of you decelerates suddenly
nHandling the radar sensor
Observe the following to ensure the cruise control system can function effectively:
lKeep the sensor and front grille clean at all times.
Clean the sensor and front grille with a soft cloth so you do not mark or damage
them.
lDo not subject the sensor or surrounding area to a strong impact.
If the sensor moves even slightly off position, the system may malfunction. If the
sensor or surrounding area is subject to a strong impact, always have the area
inspected and adjusted by a Lexus dealer.
lDo not disassemble the sensor.
lDo not attach accessories or stickers to the sensor, grille or surrounding area.
lDo not modify or paint the sensor and grille.
nTo ensure the radar sensor functions correctly
Do not do the following to the sensor or grille cover as doing so may cause the sen-
sor not to function correctly and could result in an accident.
lStick or attach anything to them
lLeave them dirty
lDisassemble, subject them to strong shocks
lModify or paint them
lReplace them with non-genuine parts

nChanging the settings
Each item is displayed and its setting can be changed only in the following condi-
tions:
lIntuitive parking assist: When the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNI-
TION ON mode.
lItems other than the above: When the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in
IGNITION ON mode and the vehicle is stopped.

The display will return to the original display if the satellite switches are not oper-
ated for an extended period.
Even if the display is in satellite switch mode, it will switch in the event of a warning
or when the radar cruise control (if equipped) is used. If this occurs, press any of the
satellite switches or “DISP” switch on the steering wheel to return the display to sat-
ellite switch mode.
