Tires - Lexus LX570 Manual

2-5. Driving information
After the trailer swaying has stopped:
●
• Stop in a safe place. Get all occupants out of the vehicle.
• Check the tires of the vehicle and the trailer.
• Check the load in the trailer.
Make sure the load has not shifted.
Make sure the tongue weight is appropriate, if possible.
• Check the load in the vehicle.
Make sure the vehicle is not overloaded after occupants get in.
If you cannot find any problems, the speed at which trailer swaying occurred is
beyond the limit of your particular vehicle-trailer combination.
Drive at a lower speed to prevent instability. Remember that swaying of the towing
vehicle-trailer increases as speed increases.
CAUTION
Trailer towing precautions
■
To tow a trailer safely, use extreme care and drive the vehicle in accordance with
●
the trailer' s characteristics and operating conditions. Failure to do so could cause
an accident resulting in death or serious injury. Vehicle stability and braking per-
formance are affected by trailer stability, brake setting and performance, and the
hitch. Your vehicle will handle differently when towing a trailer.
Set the vehicle height to the "LO" mode and turn off the 4-Wheel AHC when you
●
connect a trailer to prevent the vehicle height from automatically changing.
