• Information (such as the distance
and relative speed between your

• Images from the camera sensor
(available only in situations when
sudden inputs occur while driving
[sudden acceleration, etc.], the

Lexus Safety System+A
The Lexus Safety System+A 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 surroundings and driving
safely.

214 4-5. Using the driving support systems
LS500h_OM_OM50F42U_(U) • The relative speed between your vehicle
and the detected pedestrian, bicyclist or
vehicle ahead is approximately 20 mph
(30 km/h) or more. (For detecting a vehi-
cle approaching from the front left or
right side, the speed of the approaching
vehicle is between approximately 10 and
37 mph [15 and 60 km/h].)●
Pre-collision braking:
• Vehicle speed is be tween approximately
3 and 110 mph (5 and 180 km/h). (For
detecting a pedestrian or bicyclist, vehi-
cle speed is between approximately 3
and 50 mph [5 and 80 km/h].)
• The relative speed between your vehicle
and the detected pedestrian, bicyclist or
vehicle ahead is approximately 3 mph (5
km/h) or more.●
Active steering assist
• Vehicle speed is be tween approximately
25 and 50 mph (40 and 80 km/h). (For
detecting a pedestrian, vehicle speed is
between approximately 25 and 40 mph
[40 and 65 km/h] and for detecting a
guardrail, vehicle speed is between
approximately 37 and 50 mph [60 and
80 km/h].)
The system may not operate in the following
situations: ●
If a 12-volt battery terminal has been dis-
connected and reconnected and then the
vehicle has not been driven for a certain
amount of time●
If the shift position is in R●
If VSC is disabled (only the pedestrian
alert and pre-collision warning function
will be operational)●
When there is insufficient safe or unob-
structed space for the vehicle to be
steered into
●
When an object is approaching the area
the vehicle is to be steered into
■
Pedestrian and bicyc list detection func-
tion
The pre-collision system detects pedestri-
ans and bicyclists based on the size, profile,
and motion of the person. However, a
pedestrian or bicyclist may not be detected
depending on the surrounding brightness
and the motion, posture, and angle of the person, preventing the system from operat-
ing properly. ( → P.216)
■
Cancelation of pre-collision braking
and active steering assist
If either of the follo wing occur while the
pre-collision braking function is operating, it
will be canceled: ●
The accelerator pedal is depressed
strongly. ●
The steering wheel is turned sharply or
abruptly. ■
Conditions under which the system may
operate even if there is no possibility of a
collision ●
In some situations su ch as the following,
the system may determine that there is a
possibility of a frontal collision and oper-
ate.
• When passing a vehicle, pedestrian or
bicyclist
• When changing lanes while overtaking a
preceding vehicle
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle
that is changing lanes
• When overtaking a preceding vehicle
that is making a left/right turn
• When passing a vehicle in an oncoming
lane that is stopped to make a right/left
turn
