Dynamic radar cruise control

In vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehicle automatically acceler-
ates and decelerates to match the speed changes of the preceding vehicle even
if the accelerator pedal is not depressed. In constant speed control mode, the
vehicle runs at a fixed speed.
Use the dynamic radar cruise control on freeways and highways.

WARNING

Before using dynamic radar cruise control

Driving safely is the sole responsibility of the driver. Do not rely solely on the system,

and drive safely by always paying careful attention to your surroundings.

The dynamic radar cruise control provides driving assistance to reduce the driver’s

burden. However, there are limitations to the assistance provided.

Read the following conditions carefully. Do not overly rely on this system and always

drive carefully.
• When the sensor may not be correctly detecting the vehicle ahead:

P. 265

• Conditions under which the vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode may not

function correctly:

P. 266

Set the speed appropriately depending on the speed limit, traffic flow, road condi-

tions, weather conditions, etc. The driver is responsible for checking the set speed.

Even when the system is functioning normally, the condition of the preceding vehicle

as detected by the system may differ from the condition observed by the driver.

Therefore, the driver must always remain alert, assess the danger of each situation

and drive safely. Relying on this system or assuming the system ensures safety while

driving can lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.

Switch the dynamic radar cruise control off using the “ON/OFF” button when not in

use.

Cautions regarding the driving assist systems

Observe the following precautions, as there are limitations to the assistance provided

by the system.

Failure to do so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.

Assisting the driver to measure following distance

The dynamic radar cruise control is only intended to help the driver in determining

the following distance between the driver’s own vehicle and a designated vehicle

traveling ahead. It is not a mechanism that allows careless or inattentive driving, and it

is not a system that can assist the driver in low-visibility conditions. It is still necessary

for driver to pay close attention to the vehicle’s surroundings.

Assisting the driver to judge proper following distance

The dynamic radar cruise control determines whether the following distance

between the driver’s own vehicle and a designated vehicle traveling ahead is within a

set range. It is not capable of making any other type of judgement. Therefore, it is

absolutely necessary for the driver to remain vigilant and to determine whether or not

there is a possibility of danger in any given situation.

Assisting the driver to operate the vehicle

The dynamic radar cruise control has limited capability to prevent or avoid a collision

with a vehicle traveling ahead. Therefore, if there is ever any danger, the driver must

take immediate and direct control of the vehicle and act appropriately in order to

ensure the safety of all involved.

WARNING

Situations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control

Do not use dynamic radar cruise control in any of the following situations.

Doing so may result in inappropriate speed control and could cause an accident result-

ing in death or serious injury.

Roads where there are pedestrians, cyclists, etc.

In heavy traffic

On roads with sharp bends

On winding roads

On slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow

On steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between sharp up and down

gradients

Vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when driving down a steep hill.

At entrances to freeways and highways

When weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sensors from

detecting correctly (fog, snow, sandstorm, heavy rain, etc.)

When there is rain, snow, etc. on the front surface of the radar sensor or camera sen-

sor

In traffic conditions that require frequent repeated acceleration and deceleration

When your vehicle is towing a trailer (with towing hitch) or during emergency towing

When an approach warning buzzer is heard often

258

4-5. Using the driving support systems

This mode employs a radar sensor to detect the presence of vehicles up to
approximately 328 ft. (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle
following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from
the vehicle ahead.

Note that vehicle-to-vehicle distance will close in when traveling on long downhill

slopes.

Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead

The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle dis-

tance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance switch.

Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appears

When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-

ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the system

applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this time). The system will respond to

changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle

distance set by the driver. Approach warning warns you when the system cannot

decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.

Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the set
speed

The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then returns to con-

stant speed cruising.

Pulling the lever toward you cancels
the speed control.

The speed control is also canceled when

the brake pedal is depressed.

Pushing the lever up resumes the
cruise control and returns vehicle
speed to the set speed.

However, cruise control does not

resume when the vehicle speed is

approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or

less.

When your vehicle is too close to a
vehicle ahead, and sufficient automatic
deceleration via the cruise control is
not possible, the display will flash and
the buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
An example of this would be if another
driver cuts in front of you while you are
following a vehicle. Depress the brake
pedal to ensure an appropriate vehicle-
to-vehicle distance.

Warnings may not occur when

In the following instances, warnings may not occur even when the vehicle-to-
vehicle distance is small.

hold the “ON/OFF” button for 1.5
seconds or more.

Immediately after the “ON/OFF” but-

ton is pressed, the radar cruise control

indicator will come on. Afterwards, it

switches to the cruise control indicator.
Switching to constant speed control

mode is only possible when operating

the lever with the cruise control off.

Accelerate or decelerate, with
accelerator pedal operation, to the
desired vehicle speed (at or above
approximately 25 mph [40 km/h])
and push the lever down to set the
speed.

Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed

The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerating, the

set speed resumes. However, during vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode, the vehi-

cle speed may decrease below the set speed in order to maintain the distance to the pre-

ceding vehicle.

Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode

Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled in the following situ-

ations:

Actual vehicle speed falls at or below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).

VSC is activated.

Active TRAC is activated for a period of time.

When the VSC or Active TRAC system is turned off.

When second start mode is set.

The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.

Pre-collision braking is activated.

The switching operation continues for 5 seconds or more after the center differential

lock switch has been operated.

If vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode is automatically canceled for any other rea-

son, there may be a malfunction in the system. Contact your Lexus dealer.

Automatic cancelation of constant speed control mode

Constant speed control mode is automatically canceled in the following situations:

Actual vehicle speed is more than approximately 10 mph (16 km/h) below the set vehi-

cle speed.

Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
