The pre-collision system is equipped
with a sophisticated computer that will record certain data, such as:
• Accelerator status
•Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Operation status of the pre-collision
system functions
• Information (such as the distance and relative speed between your
vehicle and the vehicle ahead or
other objects)
• Images from the camera sensor (available only when the pre-colli-
sion braking function is operating)
The pre-collision system does not
record conversations, sounds or
images of the inside of the vehicle.
 Data usageLexus may use the data recorded in this
computer to diagnose malfunctions, con-
duct research and development, and
improve quality.
Lexus will not disclose the recorded data to
a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or
with the consent of the lessee if the vehi-
cle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government
agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle
owner
 Recorded images can be erased
using a specialized device.
The image recording function can be dis-
abled. However, if the function is disabled,
data from when the pre-collision system
operates will not be available.
Lexus Safety System+
The Lexus Safety System+ consists
of the following drive assist systems
and contributes to a safe and com-
fortable driving experience:
Drive assist systems of Lexus
Safety System+
WARNING
■Lexus Safety System+
The Lexus Safety System+ is designed to
operate under the assumption that the
driver will drive safely, and is designed to
help reduce the impact to the occupants
and the vehicle in the case of a collision
or assist the driver in normal driving con-
ditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recog-
nition accuracy and control performance
that this system can provide, do not
overly rely on this system. The driver is
always responsible for paying attention
to the vehicle’s surro undings and driving
safely.

WARNING
■To avoid malfunction of the radar sen-
sor
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the radar sensor may not
operate properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Keep the radar sensor and front grille
emblem clean at all times.
Radar sensor
Front grille emblem
If the front of the rada r sensor or the front
or back of the front grille emblem is dirty
or covered with water droplets, snow,
etc., clean it.
Clean the radar sensor and front grille
emblem with a soft cloth so you do not
mark or damage them.
●Do not attach accessories, stickers
(including transpar ent stickers) or
other items to the radar sensor, front
grille emblem or surrounding area.
●Do not subject the radar sensor or sur-
rounding area to a strong impact.
If the radar sensor, front grille, or front
bumper has been subjected to a
strong impact, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
●Do not disassemble the radar sensor.
●Do not modify or paint the radar sen-
sor, front grille emblem or surrounding
area.

●If the radar sensor, front grille, or front
bumper needs to be removed and
installed, or replaced, contact your
Lexus dealer.
■To avoid malfunction of the camera
sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the camera sensor may not
operate properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Keep the windshield clean at all times.
• If the windshield is dirty or covered with an oily film, water droplets, snow,
etc., clear the windshield.
• If a glass coating agent is applied to the windshield, it will still be necessary to
use the windshield wipers to remove
water droplets, etc. from the area of
the windshield in front of the camera
sensor.
• If the inner side of the windshield where the camera sens or is installed is
dirty, contact your Lexus dealer.
●Do not install an antenna or attach
stickers (including transparent stick-
ers) or other items to the area of the
windshield in front of the camera sen-
sor (shaded area in the illustration).
●If the part of the windshield in front of
the camera sensor is fogged up or
covered with condensation or ice, use
the windshield defogger to remove the
fog, condensation or ice. ( P.243)

WARNING
●If water droplets cannot be properly
removed from the area of the wind-
shield in front of the camera sensor by
the windshield wipers, replace the
wiper insert or wiper blade.
If the wiper inserts or wiper blades
need to be replaced, contact your
Lexus dealer.
●Do not attach window tinting to the
windshield.
●Replace the windshield if it is damaged
or cracked.
If the windshield needs to be replaced,
contact your Lexus dealer.
●Do not get the camera sensor wet.
●Do not allow bright lights to shine into
the camera sensor.
●Do not dirty or damage the camera
sensor.
When cleaning the inside of the wind-
shield, do not allow glass cleaner to
contact the lens. Also, do not touch the
lens.
If the lens is dirty or damaged, contact
your Lexus dealer.
●Do not subject the camera sensor to a
strong impact.
●Do not change the installation position
or direction of the camera sensor or
remove it.
●Do not disassemble the camera sen-
sor.
●Do not install an electronic device or
device that emits strong electric waves
near the camera sensor.
●Do not modify any components of the
vehicle around the camera sensor
(inside rear view mirror, etc.) or ceiling.
●Do not attach any accessories that

■Pre-collision warning
When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high, a
buzzer will sound and a warning mes-
sage will be displayed on the multi-
information display to urge the driver
to take evasive action.
■Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the system applies greater braking
force in relation to how strongly the
brake pedal is depressed.
■Pre-collision braking
When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the system warns the driver. If the sys-
tem determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision is extremely high, the
brakes are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or reduce the
collision speed.
■Suspension control
When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the Adaptive Variable Suspension Sys-
tem ( P.227) will control the damping
force of the shock absorbers to help
maintain an appropriate vehicle pos-
ture.
■Steering control (if equipped)
When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high
and the driver is op erating the steering
wheel, the LDH system ( P.227) will
control the turning angle of the front
PCS (Pre-Collision System)
The pre-collision system uses a
radar sensor and camera sensor to
detect vehicles and pedestrians in
front of your vehicle. When the sys-
tem determines that the possibility
of a frontal collision with a vehicle
or pedestrian is high, a warning
operates to urge the driver to take
evasive action and the potential
brake pressure is increased to help
the driver avoid the collision. If the
system determines that the possi-
bility of a frontal collision with a
vehicle or pedestrian is extremely
high, the brakes are automatically
applied to help avoid the collision or
help reduce the impact of the colli-
sion.
The pre-collision system can be dis-
abled/enabled and the warning tim-
ing can be changed. ( P.186)
