Automatic Collision Notification

In case of either airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision, the system is
designed to automatically call the response center. The responding agent
receives the vehicle’s location and attempts to speak with the vehicle occu-
pants to assess the level of emergency. If the occupants are unable to commu-
nicate, the agent automatically treats the call as an emergency, contacts the
nearest emergency services provider to describe the situation, and requests
that assistance be sent to the location.

■

Stolen Vehicle Location

If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect can work with local authorities to
assist them in locating and recovering the vehicle. After filing a police report,
call the Safety Connect response center at 1-800-25-LEXUS (1-800-255-
3987) in the United States, 1-877-539-8777 in Puerto Rico or 1-800-265-
3987 in Canada, and follow the prompts for Safety Connect to initiate this
service. 
In addition to assisting law enforcement with recovery of a stolen vehicle,
Safety-Connect-equipped vehicle location data may, under certain circum-
stances, be shared with third parties to locate your vehicle. Further informa-
tion is available at Lexus.com.

■

Emergency Assistance Button (“SOS”)

In the event of an emergency on the road, push the “SOS” button to reach the
Safety Connect response center. The answering agent will determine your
vehicle’s location, assess the emergency, and dispatch the necessary assis-
tance required.

If you accidentally press the “SOS” button, tell the response-center agent that you

are not experiencing an emergency.

■

Enhanced Roadside Assistance 

Enhanced Roadside Assistance adds GPS data to the already included war-
ranty-based Lexus roadside service.
Subscribers can press the “SOS” button to reach a Safety Connect response-
center agent, who can help with a wide range of needs, such as: towing, flat
tire, fuel delivery, etc. For a description of the Roadside Assistance services
and their limitations, please see the Safety Connect Terms and Conditions,
which are available at Lexus.com.

Important! Read this information before using Safety Connect.

■

Exposure to radio frequency signals

The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low-power radio
transmitter and receiver. It receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF)
signals.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) adopted
RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standards previously set by the fol-
lowing U.S. and international standards bodies.

●

ANSI (American National Standards Institute) C95.1 [1992]

●

NCRP (National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement)
Report 86 [1986]

●

ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection)
[1996]

Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of
the relevant scientific literature. Over 120 scientists, engineers, and physi-
cians from universities, and government health agencies and industries
reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard
(C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect complies with the FCC guidelines in addition to
those standards. 

Safety information for Safety Connect

1-3. Theft deterrent system

Engine immobilizer system

The indicator light flashes after the
engine switch has been turned off to
indicate that the system is operating.
The indicator light stops flashing after
the engine switch has been turned to
ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON
mode to indicate that the system has
been canceled.

■

System maintenance

The vehicle has a maintenance-free type engine immobilizer system.

■

Conditions that may cause the system to malfunction

●

If the grip portion of the key is in contact with a metallic object

●

If the key is in close proximity to or touching a key to the security system (key with a

built-in transponder chip) of another vehicle

The vehicle’s keys have built-in transponder chips that prevent the engine
from starting if a key has not been previously registered in the vehicle’s on-
board computer.
Never leave the keys inside the vehicle when you leave the vehicle.

This system is designed to help prevent vehicle theft but does not guarantee
absolute security against all vehicle thefts.

NOTICE

■

To ensure the system operates correctly

Do not modify or remove the system. If modified or removed, the proper operation of

the system cannot be guaranteed.

other than using the entry function, wireless remote control or mechanical
key. (The doors will lock again automatically.)

●

For Canada: A locked door or glass hatch is unlocked or opened in any way
other than using the entry function or the wireless remote control. (The doors
will lock again automatically.)

●

The hood is opened.

Close the doors, glass hatch and hood,
and lock all the doors. The system will
be set automatically after 30 seconds.

WARNING

■

If a safety system warning light does not come on

Should a safety system light such as the ABS/Multi Terrain ABS and the SRS warning

light not come on when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are not

available to help protect you in an accident, which could result in death or serious

injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately if this occurs.

WARNING

■

The information display at low temperatures

Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information

display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display monitor may respond

slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear number

appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to downshift again, causing

rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or

injury.

NOTICE

■

To prevent damage to the engine and its components

●

Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indicates

the maximum engine speed.

●

The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the red

zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check the

engine after it has cooled completely. (
