Chock at (4) points directly under the front and
rear pillars. Do not place cribbing under the high
voltage power cables, exhaust system, or fuel
system.
NOTE:
The LS 600hL may be equipped with a tyre
pressure warning system that by design
prevents pulling the metal valve stem with
integral transmitter. Snapping the stem with
pliers or removing the valve cap and Schrader
valve will release the air in the tyre.
The LS 600hL is equipped with an air suspension
system. In the event of a collision, fire or
malfunction, air leakage may occur, allowing the
body to drop.

Glass Removal
The LS 600hL is equipped with laminated
side windows having similar properties as
laminated windshield glass. If side glass
removal is required, use the same
techniques as the front windshield glass.
Types of glazing found on the LS 600hL
- Laminated front windshield
- Laminated side windows
- Tempered rear window
SRS Awareness
Responders need to be cautious when
working in close proximity to undeployed
airbags and seat belt pretensioners. Front
dual stage airbags automatically ignite both
stages within a fraction of a second.
Door Removal/Displacement
Doors can be removed by conventional
rescue tools such as hand, electric, and
hydraulic tools. In certain situations, it may
be easier to pry back the vehicle body to
expose and unbolt the hinges.
