■ Dynamic radar cruise control can be set when
● The shift lever is in D.
● Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift switch.
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 30 mph (50 km/h).
■ 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 driving is automatically canceled in the following situ-
ations:
● Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
● VSC is activated.
● TRAC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRAC system is turned off by pressing the VSC OFF switch.
● The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
● The windshield wipers are operating at high speed (when the wipers are in AUTO
mode or the high speed wiper operation).
● When snow mode is set.
● Pre-collision braking is activated.
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.

cle speed.
