WARNING
■
The ABS does not operate effectively when
●
The limits of tire gripping performance have been exceeded (such as excessively
worn tires on a snow covered road).
●
The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on wet or slick road.
■
Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always maintain a
safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●
When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
●
When driving with tire chains
●
When driving over bumps in the road
●
When driving over roads with potholes or uneven surfaces
■
TRAC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slippery road
surfaces, even if the TRAC system is operating.
Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■
When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an
accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■
Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
●
Do not overly rely on the hill-start assist control. The hill-start assist control may not
operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
●
Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold the vehicle
stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use hill-start assist con-
trol to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may lead to an accident.
■
When the TRAC system is turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road conditions. As this is
the system to help ensure vehicle stability and driving force, do not turn the TRAC sys-
tem off unless necessary.
■
Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size and of the same brand, tread pattern
and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, VSC and TRAC systems will not function correctly if different tires are
installed on the vehicle.
Contact your Lexus dealer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■
Handling of tires and the suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect the driving
assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.
