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 engine <hybrid sys-
tem>, 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 your Lexus dealer immediately if this
occurs.

■
The meters and display illuminate when
The engine switch <power switch> is in
IGNITION ON mode <ON mode>.
■
Variable red zone (LC500)
To help protect the engine, the engine
speed is controlled by starting the red zone
of the tachometer at different engine
speeds ranging from 3700 rpm to 7300
rpm depending on the engine coolant tem-
perature.
Before driving under extremely high load
conditions, make sure to sufficiently warm
up the engine.
■

The brightness of the instrument panel
lights is automatically adjusted based on the
light sensor detecting how bright the sur-
roundings are.
■
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 12 mph [20 km/h])
• 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 your Lexus dealer.

NOTICE
■
To prevent damage to the engine and
its components
●
Do not let the indicator of the tachom-
eter enter the red zone, as it rep-
resents the engine speed range which
exceeds the maximum safe engine
speed.
●
In the following situations, the engine
may be overheating. In this case,
immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and check the engine after it has
cooled completely. (
• The engine coolant temperature
gauge is in the red zone (H).
• LC500: The engine oil temperature
gauge is in the red zone (H).

Caution for use while driving
●
When operating the multi-information
display while driving, pay extra atten-
tion to the safety of the area around the
vehicle.
●
Do not look continuously at the multi-
information display while driving as
you may fail to see pedestrians, objects
on the road, etc. ahead of the vehicle.
■
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 tem-
peratures, 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.

Cautions during setting up the dis-
play
As the engine <hybrid system> needs to
be running <operating> during setting up
the display, ensure that the vehicle is
parked in a place with adequate ventila-
tion. 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

While setting up the display
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge,
ensure that the engine is running <hybrid
