Should a safety system light such as the ABS and SRS warning light not come on
when you start the engine, this could mean that these systems are not available to help
protect you in an accident, which could result in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer immediately if this occurs.

Outside temperature display

●

In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be displayed, 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.

This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a result, the
actual distance that can be driven may differ from that displayed.

●

When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not be updated.
When refueling, turn the engine switch off. If the vehicle is refueled without turning the
engine switch off, the display may not be updated.

us information and indicator

WARNING

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 braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or injury.

NOTICE

To prevent the engine or components from being damaged, observe the following
precautions.

●

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); or "Engine Coolant Temp High Stop in a Safe Place See Owner's Manual"
is shown on the multiinformation display. In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely.

WARNING

Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information
display. At extremely low temperatures, 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 braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or injury.

Cautions during setting up the display

As the engine needs to be running during setting up the display, ensure that the vehicle
is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage, exhaust
gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This
may lead to death or a serious health hazard.

NOTICE

To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while setting up the
display features.
