■Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be set when
●The shift lever is in D.
●Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift switch. (vehicles with paddle shift switches)
●Vehicle speed is above approximately 50 km/h (30 mph). However, when a precedingvehicle is detected, the dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range can be seteven if the vehicle speed is at or below approximately 50 km/h (30 mph).
■Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehi-
cle speed may decrease below the set speed in order to maintain the distance to the pre- ceding vehicle.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle- to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the following situ- ations.
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximat ely 40 km/h (25 mph) when there are no
vehicles ahead.
●The preceding vehicle leaves the lane when your vehicle is following at a vehicle speed below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph). Otherwise, the sensor cannot properly
detect the vehicle.
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC OFF switch.
●The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
●Pre-crash braking is activated.
●The parking brake is operated.
●The vehicle is stopped by syst em control on a steep incline.
●The following are detected when the vehicle has been stopped by system control:
• The driver is not wearing a seat belt. • The driver’s door is opened.• The vehicle has been stopped for about 3 minutes
If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any other rea- son, there may be a malfunction in the syst em. Contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qua lified and equipped professional.

■Automatic cancelation of constant speed control mode
Constant speed control mode is automatically canceled in the following situations:
●Actual vehicle speed is more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below the set vehi-
cle speed.
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC OFF switch.
●Pre-crash braking is activated.
If constant speed control mode is automatically canceled for any other reason, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, oranother duly qualified and equipped professional.
■Warning messages and buzzers for dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range
Warning messages and buzzers are used to indicate a system malfunction or to inform the driver of the need for caution while driv ing. If a warning message is shown on the
multi-information display, read the message and follow the instructions.
■When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead
In the case of the following and depending on the conditions, operate the brake pedal
when deceleration of the system is insufficient or operate the accelerator pedal when acceleration is required.As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect these types of vehicles, the approach
warning ( P. 336) may not be activated.
●Vehicles that cut in suddenly
●Vehicles traveling at low speeds
●Vehicles that are not moving in the same lane
●Vehicles with small rear ends (trailers with no load on board, etc.)

3404-5. Using the driving support systems
RX350/RX200t_EE_OM48F32E
●Motorcycles traveling in the same lane
●When water or snow thrown up by the surrounding vehicles hinders the detecting of the sensor
■Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not function
correctly
In the case of the following conditions, op erate the brake pedal (or accelerator pedal, depending on the situation) as necessary.
As the sensor may not be able to correctly detect vehicles ahead, the system may not operate properly.
●When the vehicle ahead of you decelerates suddenly
●When your vehicle is pointing upwards(caused by a heavy load in the luggage com-
partment, etc.)
●Preceding vehicle has an extremely high
ground clearance
●When the road curves or when the lanes are narrow
●When steering wheel operation or your posi-tion in the lane is unstable

To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired set speed is obtained.
Increases the speed
Decreases the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily move
the lever in the desired direction.
Large adjustment: Hold the lever in the
desired direction.
The set speed will be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By approximately 1 km/h (0.6 mph)*1 or 1 mph (1.6 km/h)*2 each time the lever is operated.
Large adjustment: The set speed can be incr eased or decreased continually until the
lever is released.
*1: When the set speed is shown in “km/h”
*2: When the set speed is shown in “MPH”
Pulling the lever toward you cancels
the constant speed control.
The speed setting is also canceled when
the brake pedal is depressed.
Pushing the lever up resumes the
constant speed control.
However, resuming is available when the vehicle speed is more than approxi-
mately 40 km/h (25 mph).

■Cruise control can be set when
●The shift lever is in D.
●Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift. (vehicles with paddle shift switches)
●Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
■Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
●The vehicle can be accelerated by operating accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the
set speed resumes.
●Even without canceling the cruise control, the set speed can be increased by first accel- erating the vehicle to the desired speed and then pushing the lever down to set the new
speed.
■Automatic cancelation of cruise control
Cruise control is automatically canceled in any of the following situations.
●Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph) below the set speed.
●Actual vehicle speed is below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is turned off by pressing the VSC OFF switch.
■If “Cruise Control Malfunction Visit Your Dealer” is displayed on the multi-information display
Press the “ON/OFF” button once to deactivate the system, and then press the button
again to reactivate the system. If the cruise control speed cannot be set or if the cruise control cancels immediately afterbeing activated, there may be a malfunction in the cruise control system. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
