If the message is not displayed:

Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest 

authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus author-

ized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

If “Hybrid System Overheated Out-
put Power Reduced” is shown on the 
multi-information display

1

Stop the vehicle in a safe place.

2

Stop the hybrid system and care-
fully lift the hood.

3

After the hybrid system has cooled 
down, inspect the hoses and radia-
tor core (radiator) for any leaks.

Start the hybrid system and check if 
“Hybrid System Overheated Out-
put Power Reduced” is shown on 
the multi-information display.
If the message does not disappear:
Stop the hybrid system and contact 
any authorized Lexus retailer or 
Lexus authorized repairer, or any 
reliable repairer.
If the message is not displayed:
Have the vehicle inspected at the 
nearest any authorized Lexus 
retailer or Lexus authorized 
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

WARNING

When inspecting under the hood of 

your vehicle

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in serious 

injury such as burns.

If steam is seen coming from under the 

hood, do not open the hood until the 

steam has subsided. The engine com-

partment may be very hot.

RX350h: After the hybrid system has 

been turned off, check that the 

“READY” indicator is off.

When the hybrid system is operating, 

the gasoline engine may automatically 

start, or the cooling fan may suddenly 

operate even if the gasoline engine 

stops. Do not touch or approach rotat-

ing parts such as the fan, which may 

lead to fingers or clothing (especially a 

tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught, 

resulting in serious injury.

RX500h: After the hybrid system has 

been turned off, check that the 

“READY” indicator is off.

When the hybrid system is operating, 

the gasoline engine may automatically 

start, or the cooling fan may suddenly 

operate even if the gasoline engine 

stops. Also, the cooling fan may oper-

ate for a while after turning off the 

hybrid system.  Do not touch or 

approach rotating parts such as the 

fan, which may lead to fingers or cloth-

ing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muf-

fler) getting caught, resulting in serious 

injury.

Do not loosen the radiator cap and the 

coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid 

system and radiator are hot.

High temperature steam or coolant 

could spray out.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency

When trouble

 ar

ises

1

Stop the hybrid system. Set the 
parking brake and shift the shift 
position to P.

2

Remove the mud, snow or sand 
from around the front wheels.

3

Place wood, stones or some other 
material under the front wheels to 
help provide traction.

4

Restart the hybrid system.

5

Shift the shift position to D or R and 
release the parking brake. Then, 
while exercising caution, depress 
the accelerator pedal.

When it is difficult to free the vehicle

Press 

 to turn off TRC.

RX500h

NOTICE

When adding engine/power control 

unit coolant

Add coolant slowly after the hybrid sys-

tem has cooled down sufficiently. Adding 

cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too 

quickly can cause damage to the hybrid 

system.

To prevent damage to the cooling sys-

tem

Observe the following precautions:

Avoid contaminating the coolant with 

foreign matter (such as sand or dust, 

etc.).

Do not use any coolant additive.

If the vehicle becomes stuck

Carry out the following proce-
dures if the tires spin or the vehicle 
becomes stuck in mud, dirt or snow:

Recovering procedure

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency

RX350h

WARNING

When attempting to free a stuck vehi-

cle

If you choose to push the vehicle back 

and forth to free it, make sure the sur-

rounding area is clear to avoid striking 

other vehicles, objects or people. The 

vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge 

back suddenly as it becomes free. Use 

extreme caution.

When shifting the shift position

Be careful not to shift the shift position 

with the accelerator pedal depressed.

This may lead to unexpected rapid accel-

eration of the vehicle that may cause an 

accident resulting in death or serious 

injury.

NOTICE

To avoid damage to the transmission 

and other components

Avoid spinning the front wheels and 

depressing the accelerator pedal 

more than necessary.

If the vehicle remains stuck even after 

these procedures are performed, the 

vehicle may require towing to be freed.

: The engine oil capacity is a reference 

quantity to be used when changing the 
engine oil. When actually adding the 
engine oil, make sure that the oil level is 
between the low level mark and refill 
upper limit mark (

P.502). Warm up 

the engine and turn off the hybrid sys-
tem, wait about 5 minutes, and check the 
oil level on the dipstick.

Engine oil selection (RX350h)

“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in 
your Lexus vehicle. Lexus recom-
mends the use of approved “Toyota 
Genuine Motor Oil”. Another motor 
oil of matching quality can also be 
used.

SAE 0W-16 is filled into your Lexus 
vehicle at manufacturing, and the best 
choice for good fuel economy and 
good starting in cold weather. If SAE 
0W-16 oil is not available, SAE 0W-20 
oil may be used. However, it should be 
replaced with SAE 0W-16 at the next 
oil change.
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained here 
as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates the 

characteristic of the oil which allows 
cold startability. Oils with a lower 
value before the W allow for easier 
starting of the engine in cold 
weather.

• The 16 in 0W-16 indicates the vis-

cosity characteristic of the oil when 
the oil is at high temperature. An oil

Use of ethanol blended gasoline in a 

gasoline engine

Lexus allows the use of ethanol blended 

gasoline where the ethanol content is up to 

10%. Make sure that the ethanol blended 

gasoline to be used has a Research Octane 

Number that follows the above.

If your engine knocks

Consult any authorized Lexus retailer or 

Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable 

repairer.

You may occasionally notice light knock-

ing for a short time while accelerating or 

driving uphill. This is normal and there is 

no need for concern.

Fuel information

When you find these types of fuel 
label at the gas station, use only the 
fuel with one of the following labels.

EU area:
You must only use unleaded gaso-
line conforming to European stand-
ard EN228.
Select unleaded gasoline with a 
Research Octane Number of 95 or 
higher for optimum engine perfor-
mance.

Except EU area:
You must only use unleaded gaso-
line.
Select unleaded gasoline with a 
Research Octane Number of 95 or 
higher for optimum engine perfor-
mance.

NOTICE

Notice on fuel quality

Do not use improper fuels. If improper 

fuels are used, the engine will be dam-

aged.

Do not use gasoline with metallic addi-

tives, for example manganese, iron or 

lead, otherwise it may cause damage 

on your engine or emission control 

system.

Do not add aftermarket fuel additives 

which contain metallic additives.

EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold under 

names such as “E50” or “E85” and 

fuel containing a large amount of etha-

nol should not be used. The use of 

these fuels will damage the vehicle’s 

fuel system. In case of any doubt, ask 

any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus 

authorized repairer, or any reliable 

repairer.

Except EU area: Bioethanol fuel sold 

under names such as “E50” or “E85” 

and fuel containing a large amount of 

ethanol should not be used. Your vehi-

cle can use gasoline mixed with 10% 

max ethanol. The use of fuel with more 

than 10% ethanol content (E10) will 

damage the vehicle’s fuel system. You 

must ensure that refueling is carried 

out only from a source where fuel 

specification and quality can be guar-

anteed. In case of any doubt, ask any 

authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus 

authorized repairer, or any reliable 

repairer.

Do not use the methanol blended gas-

oline such as M15, M85, M100.

The use of gasoline containing metha-

nol may cause engine damage or fail-

ure.

WARNING

During customization

As the hybrid system needs to be operat-

ing during customization, 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.

NOTICE

During customization

To prevent 12-volt battery discharge, 

ensure that the hybrid system is operat-

ing while customizing features.
