Introduction

Navigation and multimedia system
owner’s manual

This manual explains the operation of
the system. Please read this manual
carefully to ensure proper use. Keep
this manual in your vehicle at all times.

The screens shown in this manual may
differ from the actual screen of the sys­tem depending on availability of func­tions, Lexus Enform subscription
status, and map data available at the
time this manual was produced.

The screens in this manual will also dif­fer if the screen theme settings have
been changed. (Theme setting:
→P.53)

In some situations when changing
between screens, it may take longer
than normal for the screen to change,
the screen may be blank momentarily
or noise may be displayed.

Please be aware that the content of this
manual may be different from the sys­tem in some cases, such as when the
system’s software is updated.

Navigation system (with navigation
function)

The navigation system is one of the
most technologically advanced vehi­cle accessories ever developed. The
system receives satellite signals from
the Global Positioning System (GPS)
operated by the U.S. Department of
Defense. Using these signals and other

vehicle sensors, the system indicates
your present position and assists in
locating a desired destination.

The navigation system is designed to
select efficient routes from your pres­ent starting location to your destina­tion. The system is also designed to
direct you to a destination that is unfa­miliar to you in an efficient manner. The
system uses AISIN AW maps. The cal­culated routes may not be the shortest
nor the least traffic congested. Your
own personal local knowledge or
“short cut” may at times be faster than
the calculated routes.

The navigation system’s database
includes Point of Interest categories to
allow you to easily select destinations
such as restaurants and hotels. If a des­tination is not in the database, you can
enter the street address close to it and
the system will guide you there.

The system will provide both a visual
map and audio instructions. The audio
instructions will announce the distance
remaining and the direction to turn in
when approaching an intersection.
These voice instructions will help you
keep your eyes on the road and are
timed to provide enough time to allow
you to maneuver, change lanes or slow
down.

Please be aware that all current vehicle
navigation systems have certain limita­tions that may affect their ability to per­form properly. The accuracy of the
vehicle’s position depends on satellite
conditions, road configuration, vehicle
condition or other circumstances. For

prevents safe driving. The first priority
while driving should always be the safe
operation of the vehicle. While driving,
be sure to observe all traffic regula­tions.

Prior to the actual use of this system,
learn how to use it and become thor­oughly familiar with it. Read the entire
manual to make sure you understand
the system. Do not allow other people
to use this system until they have read
and understood the instructions in this
manual.

For your safety, some functions may
become inoperable when driving.
Unavailable screen buttons are

● For safety, the driver should not oper-

ate the system while he/she is driving.
Insufficient attention to the road and
traffic may cause an accident.

Safety instruction (with navigation
function)

To use this system in the safest possible
manner, follow all the safety tips shown
below.

This system is intended to assist in
reaching the destination and, if used
properly, can do so. The driver is solely
responsible for the safe operation of
your vehicle and the safety of your pas­sengers.

Do not use any feature of this system to
the extent it becomes a distraction and
prevents safe driving. The first priority
while driving should always be the safe

operation of the vehicle. While driving,
be sure to observe all traffic regula­tions.

Prior to the actual use of this system,
learn how to use it and become thor­oughly familiar with it. Read the entire
manual to make sure you understand
the system. Do not allow other people
to use this system until they have read
and understood the instructions in this
manual.

For your safety, some functions may
become inoperable when driving.
Unavailable screen buttons are
dimmed.

● For safety, the driver should not oper-

ate the navigation system while he/she
is driving. Insufficient attention to the
road and traffic may cause an acci­dent.

● While driving, be sure to obey the traf-

fic regulations and maintain awareness
of the road conditions. If a traffic sign
on the road has been changed, route
guidance may not have the updated
information such as the direction of a
one way street.

While driving, listen to the voice
instructions as much as possible and
glance at the screen briefly and only
when it is safe. However, do not totally
rely on voice guidance. Use it just for
reference. If the system cannot deter­mine the current position correctly,
there is a possibility of incorrect, late,
or non-voice guidance.

The data in the system may occasion­ally be incomplete. Road conditions,
including driving restrictions (no left

LS500_LS500h_Navi_OM50F66U_(U)

turns, street closures, etc.) frequently
change. Therefore, before following
any instructions from the system, look
to see whether the instruction can be
done safely and legally.

This system cannot warn about such
things as the safety of an area, condi­tion of streets, and availability of emer­gency services. If unsure about the
safety of an area, do not drive into it.

Under no circumstances is this system
a substitute for the driver’s personal
judgement.

Use this system only in locations where
it is legal to do so. Some states/prov­inces may have laws prohibiting the use
of video and navigation screens next to
the driver.

WARNING

● For safety reasons, drivers should

NOTICE

avoid performing operations as much
as possible while driving. Performing
operations while driving may cause the
driver to mistakenly operate the steer­ing wheel, which may lead to an acci­dent. Stop the vehicle before using.
Furthermore, avoid looking at the
screen as much as possible while driv­ing.

● Always follow the actual traffic regula-

tions and drive according to the road
conditions. Routes displayed by the
destination guidance may include
routes where the vehicle is prohibited
from entering due to changes to speed
limit signs and routes where the road is
too narrow to pass through.

● To prevent the 12-volt battery from

becoming fully depleted, do not use
the Remote Touch for long periods of
time while the engine/hybrid system is
turned off.
