1-1. For safe use
●A frontal impact applied to the front bumper while driving at speeds outside of the operational speed range
●A side impact or rear impact
●A vehicle rollover (In some accident situ-ations, the Pop Up Hood may operate.)
WARNING
■When the Pop Up Hood is operated
●Do not pull the hood lock release lever.
Doing so after the Pop Up Hood has operated will further raise the hood and may cause an injury. Do not drive
with the hood raised, as doing so may block the driver’s vision, possibly caus-ing an accident.
●Do not forcibly push down the hood.
As the popped up hood cannot be lowered by hand, doing so may deform the hood or cause an injury.
●If the Pop Up Hood has operated, have
it replaced by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. If the Pop Up
Hood has operated, stop the vehicle in a safe place and contact authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not touch the lifters immediately after the Pop Up Hood has operated, as the lifters may be hot and burn you.
NOTICE
■Pop Up Hood precautions
●Make sure to close the hood before driving, as the system may not operate
properly if the hood is not fully closed.
●Make sure that all 4 tires are of the specified size and inflated to the speci-fied tire pressure. If tires of a different
size are used, the system may not operate properly.
●If something has hit the area around the front bumper, the sensors may be
damaged even if the Pop Up Hood has not operated. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus
retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not remove or repair the parts or wiring of the Pop Up Hood, as doing
so may cause accidental operation or prevent the system from operating properly. If repair or replacement is
necessary, contact any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do not remove such components as
the front bumper, hood or suspension, or replace them with non-genuine parts, as doing so may prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
●Do not install anything to the front bumper or hood, as doing so may pre-vent the sensors from detecting an
impact correctly and prevent the sys- tem from operating properly.
●Do not close the hood with force or
apply load to the lifters, as doing so may damage the lifters and prevent the system from operating properly.
●Do not modify the suspension, as
changes made to the vehicle height may prevent the system from operat-ing properly.

1-4. Theft deterrent system
For safety and security
lowing: • Wind or the movement of objects such as leaves and insects inside the vehicle
• Ultrasonic waves emitted from devices such as the intrusion sensors of other vehicles
• The movement of people outside the vehicle
●Unstable items, such as dangling acces-sories or clothes hanging on the coat hooks, are in the vehicle.
●The vehicle is parked in a place where extreme vibrations or noises occur, such
as in a parking garage.
●Ice or snow is removed from the vehicle, causing the vehicle to receive repeated impacts or vibrations.
●The vehicle is inside an automatic or high-pressure car wash.
●The vehicle experiences impacts, such as hail, lightning strikes, and other kinds of repeated impacts or vibrations.
■Tilt sensor detection considerations
The sensor may trigger the alarm in the fol- lowing situations:
●The vehicle is transported by a ferry, trailer, train, etc.
●The vehicle is parked in a parking garage.
●The vehicle is inside a car wash that moves the vehicle.
●Any of the tires loses air pressure.
●The vehicle is jacked up.
●An earthquake occurs or the road caves in.
NOTICE
■To ensure the intrusion sensor func-tion correctly
●To ensure that the sensors operate properly, do not touch or cover them.

tion in the system. In this case, read the warning message and follow the instruction.
●In the following situations, the warning light will turn off, the message will disap-pear and the system will become opera-
tional when normal operating conditions return:• When the radar sensor or camera sensor
or the area around either sensor is hot, such as in the sun• When the radar sensor or camera sensor
or the area around either sensor is cold, such as in an extremely cold environment• When the radar sensor or front grille
emblem is dirty or covered with snow, etc.•When the part of the windshield in front
of the camera sensor is fogged up or cov- ered with condensation or ice (Defog-ging the windshield: P.281)
• If the camera sensor is obstructed, such as when the hood is open or a sticker is attached to the windshield near the cam-
era sensor
