CAUTION
Limitations of the pre-collision system
■
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings.
Do not use the pre-collision system instead of normal braking operations under
any circumstances. This system will not prevent collisions or lessen damage or inju-
ries in all cases. Do not overly rely on this system. Failure to do so may cause an
accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
This system has been designed to help avoid and reduce the impact of collisions.
However, the system operates differently depending on the situation (→P. 299,
301). As a result, the same level of performance may not be expected in all cases.
Also, the pre-collision brakes may not operate if the driver is depressing the brake
pedal or turning the steering wheel, as the system will determine such conditions
as collision avoidance operations.
Handling the radar sensor
■
Observe the following to ensure the pre-collision system can function effectively.
Otherwise, the system may not function correctly and could result in an accident.
Keep the sensor and grille cover clean at all times.
●
Clean the sensor and grille cover with a soft cloth so you do not mark or damage
them.
Do not subject the sensor or surrounding area to a strong impact.
●
If the sensor moves even slightly off position, the system may malfunction. If the
sensor or surrounding area is subject to a strong impact, always have the area
inspected and adjusted by your Lexus dealer.
Do not disassemble the sensor.
●
Do not attach accessories or stickers to the sensor, grille cover or surrounding
●
area.
Do not modify or paint the sensor and grille cover.
●
If the radar sensor needs to be replaced, contact your Lexus dealer.
