2-1. Driving procedures
LS460_EE
Starting off on a hill
Hill-start assist control will operate. (
Driving in the rain
Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be
especially slippery.
Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
Breaking in your new Lexus
To extend the life of the vehicle, the following precautions are recom-
mended to observe:
For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
For the first 1000 km (621 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in the low range in the “S” (without paddle
shift switches) or “M” (with paddle shift switches) position.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
Drum-in-disc type parking brake system
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type parking brake system. This type of
brake system needs bedding-down of the brake shoes periodically or when-
ever the parking brake shoes and/or drum are replaced. Have any authorized
Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional, perform the bedding down.
Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the avail-
ability of the correct fuel. (
Regarding engine speed when idling
When idling with the shift lever in “P” or “N” for an extensive period of
time, the engine speed may rise to approximately 1000 rpm (r/min). This is
not a malfunction. After a set period of time, the engine will return to its
previous engine speed.
