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 20 km/h [12 mph])

• 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 any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus

authorized repairer, or any reliable

repairer.

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 temper-

atures, 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. (
