For safety and security
●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 your Lexus dealer. If the
Pop Up Hood has operated, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and contact
your Lexus dealer.
●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 your Lexus dealer.
●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 your Lexus dealer.
●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 fr om 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.

2224-5. Using the driving support systems
LS500h_OM_(U)_1809
●In some situations, such as the following,
the sensors may not detect the lane lines
or a safe space the vehicle can be steered
into, preventing the active steering assist
from operating properly:
• When the white (yellow) lane lines are
difficult to see, such as when they are
faint, diverging/merging, or a shadow is
cast upon them
• When the lane is more wide or narrow than normal
• When there is a light and dark pattern on
the road surface, such as due to road
repairs
• If the system determines that a collision
can be avoided by only using the brakes
• When a pedestrian is detected near the centerline of the vehicle
●In some situations such as the following,
sufficient braking force or steering force
may not be obtained, preventing the sys-
tem from performing properly:
• If the braking functions cannot operate to
their full extent, such as when the brake
parts are extremely cold, extremely hot,
or wet
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively worn,
improper tire inflation pressure, etc.)
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery surface
• If there are deep ruts in the road
• When driving on a slope
• When driving on a horizontally slanted road
●Some guardrails, such as the following,
may not be detected by the sensors, pre-
venting the system from operating prop-
erly:
• Guardrails which are less than approxi-
mately 1.9 ft. (60 cm) tall
• Short guardrails
• Irregularly-shaped guardrails (wire cable guardrails, guardrails made of thin poles,
etc.)
• Guardrails which are not illuminated by the headlights at night, in a tunnel, etc.
• Guardrails which appear to be nearly the
same color or brightness as their sur-
roundings
• Guardrails which appear to be nearly the
same shape as their surroundings (walls,
etc.) • Guardrails which are over a metal object
(manhole cover, steel plate, etc.)
• Guardrails which are hidden behind thick
grass
• Guardrails which are extremely close to the side of the vehicle (outside rear view
mirror, etc.)
• Curved guardrails or guardrails at the entrance of a curve
●In some situations su ch as the following,
the system may detect a pedestrian and
display a warning on the head-up display,
even though no pedestrian exists:
• If the front of the vehicle is raised or low-
ered, such as when the road surface is
uneven or undulating (due to ruts, etc.)
• When driving on a slope
• When driving on a horizontally slanted
road
• If the driver’s posture (driver seat posi-
tion) is extreme, such as excessively
reclined
• If the head-up display position is set
extremely high
■If VSC is disabled
●If VSC is disabled ( P.302), the
pre-collision brake assist and pre-colli-
sion braking functions are also disabled.
●The PCS warning light will turn on and
“VSC Turned Off Pre-Collision Brake
System Unavailable” will be displayed on
the multi-information display.
