The Lexus Safety System+ consists of the following drive assist systems and contributes to a safe and comfortable driving experience:
WARNING
■ Lexus Safety System+ The Lexus Safety System+ is designed to operate under the assumption that the driver will drive safely, and is designed to help reduce the impact to the occupants and the vehicle in the case of a collision or assist the driver in normal driving conditions.
As there is a limit to the degree of recognition accuracy and control performance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for paying attention to the vehicle's surroundings and driving safely.
Vehicle data recording
The pre-collision system is equipped with a sophisticated computer that will record certain data, such as:
The pre-collision system does not record conversations, sounds or images of the inside of the vehicle.
Lexus will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
The image recording function can be disabled. However, if the function is disabled, data from when the pre-collision system operates will not be available.
Sensors
Two types of sensors, located behind the front grille and windshield, detect information necessary to operate the drive assist systems.
WARNING
■ To avoid malfunction of the radar sensor Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the radar sensor may not operate properly, possibly leading to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
- Radar sensor
- Front grille emblem
If the front of the radar sensor or the front or back of the front grille emblem is dirty or covered with water droplets, snow, etc., clean it.
Clean the radar sensor and front grille emblem with a soft cloth so you do not mark or damage them.
If the radar sensor, front grille, or front bumper has been subjected to a strong impact, have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
