WARNING
Trailer hitch assemblies have different weight capacities established by the hitch manufac-
turer. Even though the vehicle may be physically capable of towing a higher weight, the
operator must determine the maximum weight rating of the particular hitch assembly
and never exceed the maximum weight rating specified for the trailer-hitch. Exceeding
the maximum weight rating set by the trailer-hitch manufacturer can cause an accident
resulting in death or serious personal injuries.
NOTICE
When installing a trailer hitch, use only the position recommended by your Lexus dealer.
Do not install the trailer hitch on the bumper; this may cause body damage.

vehicle's electrical system and cause a malfunction.
