(  P.234)
●If the operation conditions ( P.234) are
no longer met while the lane centering
function is operating, the steering wheel
may vibrate and the buzzer may sound to
indicate that the function has been tem-
porarily canceled. However, if the “Alert”
customization setting is set to ,
the system will notify the driver by vibrat-
ing the steering wheel instead of sound-
ing the buzzer.

function will be canceled. (vehicles with
Lexus Safety System + A)
If a message urging operation of the steer-
ing wheel is displayed, operate the steering
wheel.
■Steering assist function/lane centering
function
●Depending on the vehicle speed, lane
departure situation, road conditions, etc.,
the driver may not feel the function is
operating or the function may not oper-
ate at all.

tion ( P.247) operates, the lane center-
ing function may not be able to drive the
vehicle around a curve successfully.
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System + A)
●The steering control of the function is
overridden by the driver’s steering wheel operation.
●When the vehicle speed is approximately
31 mph (50 km/h) or less, the warning
display of the lane ce
ntering function will

●The steering assist function may operate
when attempting to cut closely in front of
another vehicle while changing lanes.
■Lane departure alert function
●The warning buzzer may be difficult to
hear due to external noise, audio play-
back, etc. Also, it may be difficult to feel
steering wheel vibrations due to the road
conditions, etc.
●If the edge of the course* is not clear or
straight, the lane departure alert function
may not operate.
●Vehicle with BSM: It may not be possible
for the system to determine if there is a
danger of a collision with a vehicle in an
adjacent lane.

Depending on the vehicle speed, vehicle
condition, road conditions, or conditions of
the area around the vehicle, the lane
change assist function may not operate or it
may be difficult to recognize that it has
operated.
If steering control oper ation is excessive or
insufficient, it can be corrected by the
driver’s operation of the steering wheel.
In situations such as the following, the lane
change assist function may be canceled:
●When the system no longer detects white
(yellow) lane lines
●When the turn signal lever is operated

Driving
●When the vehicle speed is outside of the
operational range of the function
●When the system detects operation of
the steering wheel, brake or accelerator
pedal by the driver
While the lane change assist function is
operating, if the system detects that a vehi-
cle is quickly approaching in the lane
toward which the turn signal is operated,
the steering assist may slightly steer the
vehicle away from the lane while a buzzer is
sounding, the steering wheel is vibrating,
and a warning display is displayed on the
multi-information display, to help prevent
the vehicle from entering the lane and alert
the driver of the approaching vehicle.
■Hands off steering wheel warning
In the following situations, a warning mes-
sage urging the driver to hold the steering
wheel and the symbol shown in the illustra-
tion are displayed on the multi-information
display to warn the driver. The warning
stops when the system determines that the
driver holds the steering wheel. Always
keep your hands on the steering wheel
when using this system, regardless of warn-
ings.
Depending on the vehicle condition and
road conditions, the warning may not oper-
ate. Also, if the system determines that the
vehicle is driving around a curve, warnings
will occur earlier than during straight-lane
driving.
●When the system determines that the
driver is driving without holding the steer-
ing wheel while the sy stem is operating
If the driver continue s to keep their hands
off of the steering wheel, the buzzer
sounds, the driver is warned and the func-
tion is temporarily ca nceled. This warning
also operates in the same way when the driver continuously operates the steering
wheel only a small amount.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to .
●When the system determines that the
vehicle may not turn and instead depart
from its lane while driving around a curve
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System + 2.0)
●When the system determines that the
driver is driving with
out holding the steer-
ing wheel while the st eering wheel assist
of the steering assist function is operating
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System + 2.0)
If the driver continues to keep their hands
off of the steering wheel and the steering
wheel assist is operating, the buzzer
sounds and the driver is warned. Each time
the buzzer sounds, the continuing time of
the buzzer becomes longer.
The buzzer also sounds even if the alert
type is set to .
In situations such as the following, the sys-
tem may not be able to detect when the
driver’s hands are on the steering wheel
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System + A):
●If a steering wheel cover is installed.
●If the driver is wearing gloves.
●If something is attached to the steering
wheel.
●If the driver is gripping the wood trim,
stitched area, spokes, or other part of the
steering wheel that does not have sen-
sors.
In situations such as the following, the hands
off steering wheel alert may not operate
and the steering assist function and lane
centering function may operate even if the
driver’s hands are off the steering wheel
(vehicles with Lexus Safety System + A):
●If an object contacts the steering wheel.
●If a wide object or ar ms are held in front
of the steering wheel.

Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically decelerates
your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the system applies
the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this time). The sy stem will respond to changes in
the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by
the driver. Approach warning warns you when th e system cannot decelerate sufficiently to
prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehi cle will also stop (vehicle is stopped by sys-
tem control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pressing the “+RES” switch or depressing
the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will resume follow-up cruising. If the start-off
operation is not performed, system contro l continues to keep your vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves to a left lane while driving at
50 mph (80 km/h) or more, the vehicle will quickly accelerate to help to overtake a pass-
ing vehicle.
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the set
speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is re ached. The system then returns to constant
speed cruising.
1 Press the cruise control main switch
to activate the cruise control.
Dynamic radar cruise control indicator will
come on and a message will be displayed
on the multi-information display. Press the
switch again to deactivate the cruise con-

■Situations in which the tire pressure
warning system may not operate prop-
erly
●In the following cases, the tire pressure
warning system may not operate prop-
erly.
• If non-genuine Lexus wheels are used.
• If a tire has been repl aced with a tire that
is not an OE (Original Equipment) tire.
• If a tire has been repl aced with a tire that
is not of the specified size.
• If tire chains, etc. are installed.
• An auxiliary-supported run-flat tire is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehi-
cle, particularly around the wheels or
wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is much higher
than the specified level.
• If wheels not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and tr ansmitter are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warn- ing valves and transmitters is not regis-
tered in the tire pressure warning
computer.
●Performance may be affected in the fol-
lowing situations.
• When driving near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas stat
ion, radio station,
large display, airport or other facility that
generates strong radi o waves or electri-
cal noise
• When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless
communication device
If tire position information is not correctly
displayed due to the radio wave conditions,
the display may be corrected by changing
the location of the vehicle as the radio wave
conditions may change.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the time
taken for the warning to start or turn off
may be longer.
●When the inflation pressure of a tire
drops rapidly, for example when a tire has
burst, the warning may not operate.
■Warning performance of the tire pres-
sure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning
system will change in accordance with driv-
ing conditions. For this reason, the system
may give a warning even if the tire pressure
does not reach a low enough level, or if the
pressure is higher than the pressure that
was adjusted to when the system was initial-
ized.
