●If the accelerator pedal is depressed fo r more than a certain period of time
●When the shift lever is shifted to a position other than D

tion display and a function is adopted that automatically selects a higher shift range when
the fluid temperature is high. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.

Lexus Safety System +
The Lexus Safety System + consists of the following drive assist systems and
contributes to a safe and comfo rtable driving experience:
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 conditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control performance that
this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsi-
ble for paying attention to the vehicle's surroundings and driving safely.

2484-5. Using the driving support systems
IS350 AWD/IS350/IS300 AWD/IS300_U
In vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehicle automatically a\
cceler-
ates and decelerates to match the speed changes of the preceding vehicle even
if the accelerator pedal is not depressed. In constant speed control mode, the
vehicle runs at a fixed speed.
Use the dynamic radar cruise control on freeways and highways.
