mately 0.5 seconds.

Moves between center and right-side

■

The meters and display illuminate when

The engine switch is in IGNITION ON

mode.

■

Variable red zone (IS500)

To help protect the engine, the engine

speed is controlled by starting the red zone

of the tachometer at different engine

speeds ranging from 3700 rpm to 7300

rpm depending on the engine coolant tem-

perature. Before driving under extremely

high load conditions, make sure to suffi-

ciently warm up the engine.

■

Outside temperature display

●

In the following situations, the correct

outside temperature may not be dis-

played, or the display may take longer

than normal to change:

• When stopped, or driving at low speeds

(less than 12 mph [20 km/h])

• When the outside temperature has

changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of

a garage, tunnel, etc.)

●

When “_ _”or “E” is displayed, the system

may be malfunctioning.

Take your vehicle to your Lexus dealer.

■

Pop-up display

●

In some situations, such as when a switch

operation is performed, a pop-up display

will be temporarily displayed on the

multi-information display or the odome-

ter/trip meter screen (F SPORT models).

●

Some pop-up displays can be set on/off.

■

Display items



Odometer

Displays the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.



Trip meter A/trip meter B

Displays the distance the vehicle has been
driven since the meter was last reset. Trip
meters A and B can be used to record and
display different distances independently.



Distance until next engine oil
change

Displays the distance the vehicle can be
driven until an oil change is necessary.

■

Changing the display

Each time the “ODO TRIP” switch is
pressed, the displayed item will be
changed. When the trip meter is dis-
played, pressing and holding the switch
will reset the trip meter.

WARNING

■

The information display at low tem-

peratures

Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm

up before using the liquid crystal infor-

mation display. At extremely low tem-

peratures, 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 brak-

ing 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, imme-

diately stop the vehicle in a safe place,

and check the engine after it has

cooled completely. (

■

Cautions during setting up the dis-

play

As the engine needs to be running

during setting up the display, ensure that

the vehicle is parked in a place with ade-

quate ventilation. In a closed area such as

a garage, exhaust gases including harm-

ful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect

and enter the vehicle. This may lead to

death or a serious health hazard.

Card key (if equipped)

●

The card key is not waterproof.

●

The mechanical key that is stored inside

the card key should be used only if a

problem arises, such as when the card

key does not operate properly.

●

If it is difficult to take out the mechanical

key, push down the lock release button

using a pen tip etc. If it is still difficult to

pull it out, use a coin etc.

●

To store the mechanical key in the card

key, insert it while pressing the lock

When bringing an electronic key onto an

aircraft, make sure you do not press any

buttons on the electronic key while inside

the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an

electronic key in your bag etc., ensure that

the buttons are not likely to be pressed acci-

dentally. Pressing a button may cause the

electronic key to emit radio waves that

could interfere with the operation of the air-

craft.

■

Electronic key battery depletion

●

The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.

(The card key battery life is about a year

and a half.)

●

If the battery becomes low, an alarm will

sound in the cabin and a message will be

shown on the multi-information display

when the engine is stopped.
