2004 Lexus RX 330 Owners Manual - Page 496

STARTING AND DRIVING Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the "- SET" direction and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. At this time, the display indicates settings such as the preset vehicle speed, whether a vehicle is present ahead and selected vehicle-to-vehicle distance. If there is no vehicle detected ahead, the display does not indicate the vehicle ahead. You can now take your foot off the accelerator pedal. If you need to accelerate - for example, when passing - depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the preset speed. When you release the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will return to the control prior to acceleration. You cannot set a desired speed if the master warning light comes on, the alarm sounds and the display indicates one of the warning codes "E1", "E2" or "E3". If any of the above codes appears on the display, see "(l) Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode failure warning" on page 479. (d) Cancelling the preset speed You can cancel the preset speed by doing any of the following: a. Pulling the lever in the "CANCEL" direction. b. Depressing the brake pedal. c. Pressing the "ON-OFF" button. If cancelled by a. or b., the "READY" indicator comes on and the dynamic laser cruise control enters the ready mode. If cancelled by c., the "CRUISE" indicator light goes off in the instrument panel. In this case, the preset speed data is cleared, and you must set the speed from the beginning. In the following cases, the preset speed automatically cancels out: a. The vehicle speed falls below about 40 km/h (25 mph). (40 km/h (25 mph) is designated as a cancel speed.) b. The slip indicator light blinks and an alarm sounds. (This occurs when the vehicle is about to skid.) If cancelled by a. or b., the "READY" indicator comes on and the dynamic laser cruise control enters the ready mode. If one of the warning codes "E1", "E2" or "E3" appears on the display, the preset speed automatically cancels out. See "(l) Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode failure warning" on page 479. If the preset speed automatically cancels out for other than the above reasons, do not operate the dynamic laser cruise control. Although there is no problem to continue driving, please contact your Lexus dealer. 473
