WARNING

■

If a safety system warning light does

not come on

Should a safety system light such as the

ABS and SRS warning light not come on

when you start the hybrid system, this

could mean that these systems are not

available to help protect you in an acci-

dent, which could result in death or seri-

ous injury. Have the vehicle inspected by

any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus

authorized repairer, or any reliable

repairer immediately if this occurs.

Hybrid System Indicator

Charge area

Shows regeneration

status.

Regenerated energy will be used to charge
the hybrid battery (traction battery).

Hybrid Eco area

Shows that gasoline engine power is not
being used very often.
The gasoline engine will automatically stop
and restart under various conditions.

Eco area

Shows that the vehicle is being driven in an
Eco-friendly manner.
By keeping the bar display within Eco area,
more Eco-friendly driving can be achieved.

Power area

Shows that an Eco-friendly driving range is
being exceeded (during full power driving
etc.)

: When used in this manual, regeneration

refers to the conversion of energy cre-
ated by the movement of the vehicle into
electrical energy.

■

Engine speed

On hybrid electric vehicles, engine speed is

precisely controlled in order to help

improve fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust

emissions etc.

There are times when the engine speed that

is displayed may differ even when vehicle

operation and driving conditions are the

same.

■

Hybrid System Indicator is displayed

when

The Hybrid System Indicator is displayed in

the following situations:

●

The shift position is in D or M.

●

When the tachometer setting is set to

change according to the driving mode

and a driving mode other than sport

mode is selected

●

When the tachometer setting is set to

always display the Hybrid System Indica-

tor

However, the Hybrid System Indicator will

not be displayed when the analog and digi-
tal speedometers are both enabled on

of the multi-information display. (



P.118)

■

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.

■

Pop-up display

Distance until the next engine oil
change will displayed when a warning
message indicating that oil mainte-
nance should be performed soon or is
required is displayed.

The brightness of the instrument panel
lights can be adjusted.

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. (

■

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

release button.

●

If the battery cover is not installed and the

battery falls out or if the battery was

removed because the key got wet, rein-

stall the battery with the positive terminal

facing the Lexus emblem.

■

When riding in an aircraft

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

Keys

The keys

shown on the multi-information display

when the hybrid system is stopped.

●

To reduce key battery depletion when the

electronic key is to not be used for long

periods of time, set the electronic key to

the battery-saving mode. (



P.146)

●

As the electronic key always receives

radio waves, the battery will become

depleted even if the electronic key is not

used. The following symptoms indicate

that the electronic key battery may be

depleted. Replace the battery when nec-

essary.

• The smart entry & start system or the

wireless remote control does not oper-

ate.

• The detection area becomes smaller.

• The LED indicator on the key surface

does not turn on.

●

To avoid serious deterioration, do not

leave the electronic key within 1 m (3 ft.)

of the following electrical appliances that

produce a magnetic field:

• TVs

• Personal computers

• Cellular phones, cordless phones and

battery chargers

• Recharging cellular phones or cordless

phones

• Table lamps

• Induction cookers

■

Confirmation of the number of regis-

tered keys

The number of keys already registered to

the vehicle can be confirmed. Ask any

authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus author-

ized repairer, or any reliable repairer for

details.

■

If “A New Key has been Registered

Contact Your Dealer for Details” is

shown on the multi-information display

This message will be displayed each time

the driver’s door is opened when the doors

are unlocked from the outside for approxi-

mately 10 days after a new electronic key

has been registered.

If this message is displayed but you have not

had a new electronic key registered, ask

any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus

authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer

to check if an unknown electronic key

(other than those in your possession) has

been registered.

NOTICE

■

To prevent key damage

●

Do not drop the keys, subject them to

strong shocks or bend them.

●

Do not expose the keys to high tem-

peratures for a long period of time.

●

Do not get the keys wet or wash them

in an ultrasonic washer etc.

●

Do not attach metallic or magnetic

materials to the keys or place the keys

close to such materials.

●

Do not disassemble the keys.

●

Do not attach a sticker or anything else

to the surface of the electronic key.

●

Do not place the keys near objects that

produce magnetic fields, such as TVs,

audio systems and induction cookers,

or medical electrical equipment, such

as low-frequency therapy equipment.

■

Carrying the electronic key on your

person

Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.)

or more away from electric appliances

that are turned on. Radio waves emitted

from electric appliances within 10 cm

(3.9 in.) of the electronic key may inter-

fere with the key, causing the key to not

function properly.
