Turns the brake hold system on
The brake hold standby indicator
(green) comes on. While the system is
holding the brake, the brake hold
operated indicator (yellow) comes on.
■Brake hold system operating conditions
The brake hold system cannot be turned on in the following conditions:
●The trunk or hood is not closed.
●The driver’s door is not closed.
●The driver is not wearing the seat belt.
If any of the conditions above are detected when the brake hold system is enabled,
the system will turn off and the brake hold standby indicator light will go off. In addi-
tion, if any of the conditions are detected while the system is holding the brake, a
warning buzzer will sound and a message will be shown on the multi-information dis-
play. The parking brake will then be set automatically.
■Brake hold function
●If the brake pedal is left released for a period of about 3 minutes after the system
has started holding the brake, the parking brake will be set automatically. In this
case, a warning buzzer sounds and a message is shown on the multi-information
display.
●To turn the system off while the system is holding the brake, firmly depress the
brake pedal and press the switch again.
●The brake hold function may not hold the vehicle when the vehicle is on a steep
incline. In this situation, it may be necessary for the driver to apply the brakes. The
multi-information display will inform the driver of this situation.
Brake Hold
The brake hold system keeps the brake applied when the shift lever is in
D, S or N with the system on and the brake pedal has been depressed to
stop the vehicle. The system releases the brake when the accelerator
pedal is depressed with the shift lever in D or S to allow smooth start off.

3524-5. Using the driving support systems
LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
■Conditions that may trigger the system even if there is no danger of a collision
In any of the following situations where the frontal area of the radar sensor is inter-
rupted, the radar sensor may detect possibility of a frontal collision and the system
may be activated.
●When passing by an oncoming vehicle in a curve or a turn to the right or the left.
●When rapidly approaching an obstacle ahead (e.g. preceding vehicle, toll gate bar-
rier, etc.)
●When there is a structural object (billboard, low ceiling, fluorescent light, etc.)
above the uphill road ahead
●When driving on a narrow road or through under a low overhead structure (bridge,
tunnel, fly-under, etc.)
●When driving on an uneven road surface
●When there is a metal object, bump, or protrusion on the road surface
●When vehicle front part is raised or lowered depending on loading conditions
●When the direction of radar sensor is misaligned by strong impact applied on an
area around the radar sensor, etc.
●When there is an obstacle (guard rail, etc.) by the roadside at the entrance to a
curve
●When the front of your vehicle is pointing upwards (caused by putting a heavy load
in the trunk etc.)
●When driving through an area filled with steam or smoke
When the system is activated in the situatio ns described above, there is also a possi-
bility that the seat belts will retract quickly and the brakes may 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 darkness such as at night or in a tunnel.

When trouble arises
LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
With the compressor switch off, disconnect the hose from the valve on
the tire and then pull out the power plug from the power outlet socket.
Some sealant may leak when the hose is removed.
Install the valve cap onto the valve of the emergency repaired tire.
Attach the air release cap to the
end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not attached,
the sealant may leak and the vehicle
may get dirty.
Temporarily store the bottle in the trunk while it is connected to the
compressor.
To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, immediately drive
safely for about 5 km (3 miles) below 80 km/h (50 mph).
After driving, stop your vehicle in
a safe place on a hard, flat surface
and reconnect the compressor.
