DRIVING TIPS DINGHY TOWING TRAILER TOWING Your vehicle is designed primarily as a passenger−and−load carrying vehicle. Towing a trailer will have an adverse effect on handling, performance, braking, durability and driving economy (fuel consumption, etc.). Your safety and satisfaction depend on the proper use of correct equipment and cautious driving habits. For your safety and the safety of others, you must not overload your vehicle or trailer. Lexus warranties do not apply to damage or malfunction caused by towing a trailer for commercial purposes. Ask your local Lexus dealer for further details before towing. Your vehicle is not designed to be dinghy towed (with four wheels on the ground) behind a motorhome. CAUTION When disconnecting a trailer, put the vehicle height in the "LO" (low) mode and push the "HEIGHT CONTROL OFF" switch to turn off the rear height control air suspension. Otherwise, the vehicle height may be changed in the automatic leveling function, resulting in accident. For details see "Rear height control air suspension" on page 315. NOTICE Do not tow your vehicle with four wheels on the ground. This may cause serious damage to your vehicle. 346
