 While the power switch is in 

ON and the brake pedal depressed

*

shift the shift lever while pushing the 
shift release button on the shift knob.

 Shift the shift lever while push-

ing the shift release button on the shift 
knob.

 Shift the shift lever normally.

When shifting the shift lever between P 
and D, make sure that the vehicle is com-
pletely stopped and the brake pedal is 
depressed.

*

: For the vehicle be able to be shifted from 

P, the brake pedal must be depressed 
before the shift release button is pushed. 
If the shift release button is pushed first, 
the shift lock will not be released.

Shift lock system

The shift lock system is a system to prevent 

accidental operation of the shift lever in 

starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only 

when the power switch is in ON, the brake 

pedal is depressed and the shift release but-

ton is pushed.

If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P

First, check whether the brake pedal is 

being depressed.

If the shift lever cannot be shifted even 

though the brake pedal is depressed and 

the shift release button is pushed, there may 

be a problem with the shift lock system. 

Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus 

dealer immediately.

The following steps may be used as an 

emergency measure to ensure that the shift 

lever can be shifted.
Releasing the shift lock:

1

Press the parking brake switch to check 

that the parking brake is set. (

P.174)

2

Turn the power switch off.

3

Depress the brake pedal.

WARNING

When driving on slippery road sur-

faces

Be careful of downshifting and sudden 

acceleration, as this could result in the 

vehicle skidding to the side or spinning.

NOTICE

Hybrid battery (traction battery) 

charge

If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid battery 

(traction battery) will not be charged 

even when the engine is running. There-

fore, if the vehicle is left with the shift 

lever in N for a certain amount of time, 

the hybrid battery (traction battery) will 

discharge, and this may result in the vehi-

cle not being able to start.

Press the shift lock override button.

The shift lever can be shifted while the but-

ton is pressed

P.258

To drive using temporary shift range 
selection, operate the “-” or “+” paddle 
shift switch when driving with the shift 
lever in D.
When the “-” paddle shift switch is 
operated, the shift range switches to a 
range that enables engine braking 
force that is suitable to driving condi-
tions. When the “+” paddle shift switch 
is operated, the shift range switches to 
a range that is one range higher than 
the current range.
Changing the shift range allows 
restriction of the highest gear, prevent-
ing unnecessary upshifting and 
enabling the level of engine braking 
force to be selected.

Upshifting

2

Downshifting

The selected shift range, from D1 to D6, 
will be displayed in the meter.
To return to normal D position driving, the 
“+” paddle shift switch must be held down 
for a period of time.

WARNING

To prevent an accident when releas-

ing the shift lock

Before pressing the shift lock override 

button, make sure to set the parking 

brake and depress the brake pedal.

If the accelerator pedal is accidentally 

depressed instead of the brake pedal 

when the shift lock override button is 

pressed and the shift lever is shifted out 

of P, the vehicle may suddenly start, pos-

sibly leading to an accident resulting in 

death or serious injury.

Selecting the driving mode

Selecting shift ranges in the D 
position (vehicles with paddle 
shift switches)

172

4-2. Driving procedures

A lower shift range will provide greater 
engine braking forces than a higher shift 
range.

When the “-” paddle shift switch is oper-

ated with the shift lever in the D position

A shift range will be automatically selected. 

The highest gear of the first shift range will 

be one gear lower than the gear in use 

during normal D position driving.

Automatic deactivation of shift range 

selection in the D position

Shift range selection in the D position will 

be deactivated in the following situations:

When the vehicle comes to a stop

If the accelerator pedal is depressed for 

more than a certain period of time in one 

gear step

When the shift lever is shifted to a posi-

tion other than D

When the “+” paddle shift switch is 

pressed and held

To enter S mode, shift the shift lever to 
S. Shift ranges can be selected by 
operating the shift lever or paddle shift 
switches (if equipped).

The initial shift range in S mode is 4.

Shift ranges and their functions

You can choose from 6 levels of 
accelerating force and engine brak-
ing force.

A lower shift range will provide 
greater accelerating force and 
engine braking force than a higher 
shift range, and the engine revolu-
tions will also increase.

S mode

When the shift range is 4 or lower, hold-

ing the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift 

range to 6.

Automatically selects a higher shift range 

before the engine speed becomes too 

high.

Conditions to turn the high beams 

on/off automatically

When all of the following conditions are 

met, the high beams will be turned on 

automatically (after approximately 1 sec-

ond):

• The vehicle speed is approximately 21 

mph (34 km/h) or more.

• The area ahead of the vehicle is dark.

• There are no vehicles ahead with head-

lights or tail lights turned on.

• There are few streetlights on the road 

ahead.

If any of the following conditions are met, 

the high beams will turn off automatically:

• The vehicle speed is below approxi-

mately 17 mph (27 km/h).

• The area ahead of the vehicle is not dark.

• Vehicles ahead have their headlights or 

tail lights turned on.

• There are many streetlights on the road 

ahead.

Front camera detection information

The high beams may not be automatically 

turned off in the following situations:

• When a vehicle suddenly appears from 

around a curve

• When the vehicle is cut in front of by 

another vehicle

• When vehicles ahead cannot be 

detected due to repeated curves, road 

dividers or roadside trees

• When vehicles ahead appear in a far-

away lane on a wide road

• When the lights of vehicles ahead are not 

on

The high beams may be turned off if a 

vehicle ahead that is using fog lights with-

AHB (Automatic High 
Beam)

The Automatic High Beam uses a 
front camera located behind the 
upper portion of the windshield to 
assess the brightness of the lights of 
vehicles ahead, streetlights, etc., 
and automatically turns the high 
beams on or off as necessary.

WARNING

Limitations of the Automatic High 

Beam

Do not overly rely on the Automatic 

High Beam. Always drive safely, taking 

care to observe your surroundings and 

turning the high beams on or off manu-

ally if necessary.

To prevent incorrect operation of the 

Automatic High Beam system

Do not overload the vehicle.

out its headlights turned on is detected.

House lights, street lights, traffic signals, 

and illuminated billboards or signs and 

other reflective objects may cause the 

high beams to change to the low beams, 

or the low beams to remain on.

The following factors may affect the 

amount of time taken for the high beams 

to turn on or off:

• The brightness of the headlights, fog 

lights, and tail lights of vehicles ahead

• The movement and direction of vehicles 

ahead

• When a vehicle ahead only has opera-

tional lights on one side

• When a vehicle ahead is a two-wheeled 

vehicle

• The condition of the road (gradient, 

curve, condition of the road surface, etc.)

• The number of passengers and amount of 

luggage in the vehicle

The high beams may turn on or off unex-

pectedly.

Bicycles or similar vehicles may not be 

detected.

In the following situations the system may 

not be able to correctly detect the sur-

rounding brightness level. This may cause 

the low beams to remain on or the high 

beams to flash or dazzle pedestrians or 

vehicles ahead. In such a case, it is neces-

sary to manually switch between the high 

and low beams.

• When driving in inclement weather 

(heavy rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.)

• When the windshield is obscured by fog, 

mist, ice, dirt, etc.

• When the windshield is cracked or dam-

aged

• When the front camera is deformed or 

dirty

• When the temperature of the front cam-

era is extremely high

• When the surrounding brightness level is 

equal to that of headlights, tail lights or 

fog lights

• When headlights or tail lights of vehicles 

ahead are turned off, dirty, changing 

color, or not aimed properly

• When the vehicle is hit by water, snow, 

dust, etc. from a preceding vehicle

• When driving through an area of inter-

mittently changing brightness and dark-

ness

• When  frequently  and  repeatedly driving 

ascending/descending roads, or roads 

with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces 

(such as stone-paved roads, gravel 

roads, etc.)

• When frequently and repeatedly taking 

curves or driving on a winding road

• When there is a highly reflective object 

ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or 

mirror

• When the back of a preceding vehicle is 

highly reflective, such as a container on a 

truck

• When the vehicle’s headlights are dam-

aged or dirty, or are not aimed properly

• When the vehicle is listing or tilting due to 

a flat tire, a trailer being towed, etc.

• When the headlights are changed 

between the high beams and low beams 

repeatedly in an abnormal manner

• When the driver believes that the high 

beams may be flashing or dazzling 

pedestrians or other drivers

Temporarily lowering sensor sensitivity

The sensitivity of the sensor can be tempo-

rarily lowered.
