are not available to help protect you in an

accident, which could result in death or

serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected

Operating condition

The power switch is in ON mode.

Hybrid System Indicator

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

Eco area
Shows that the vehicle is being driven in
an Eco-friendly manner.

Hybrid Eco area
Shows that gasoline engine power is not
being used very often.
The gasoline engine will automatically
stop and restart under various condi-
tions.

Charge area
Shows that energy is being recovered
via the regenerative brake.

Hybrid System Indicator is displayed

when the driving mode is in other than

the Sport mode.

By keeping the indicator needle within

Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving can

be achieved.

Charge area indicates regeneration

*

sta-

tus. Regenerated energy will be used to

charge the hybrid battery (traction bat-

tery).

*

: When used in this manual, “regeneration”

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

Tachometer

Hybrid System Indicator switches to the

tachometer when driving mode is in Sport

mode. The settings of the tachometer dis-

play can be changed on the multi-informa-

tion display.

Engine speed

On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is pre-

cisely controlled in order to help improve

fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emis-

sions, etc.

There are times when the engine speed that

is displayed may differ even when vehicle

operation and driving conditions are the

same.

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.

Pop-up display

In some situations, a pop-up display will be

temporarily displayed on the multi-informa-

tion display or the odometer/trip meter/

maintenance required information screen.

The pop-up display function can be set on/

off. (

P.87)

Liquid crystal display

Small spots or light spots may appear on the

display. This phenomenon is characteristic

of liquid crystal displays, and there is no

problem continuing to use the display.

meter and maintenance required infor-

mation displays. When the trip meter is

Instrument panel brightness adjustment

The instrument panel brightness levels

when the tail lights are on and off can be

adjusted individually. However, when the

surroundings are bright (daytime, etc.),

turning on the tail lights will not change the

instrument panel brightness. At this time,

any adjustments made to the instrument

panel brightness levels will be applied to

both settings at once.

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 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

personal death or injury.

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the engine and

its components

When the tachometer is displayed, 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 Cool-

ant Temp High” or “Hybrid System

Overheated” is shown on the multi-

information display. In this case, imme-

diately stop the vehicle in a safe place,

and check the engine or hybrid system

after it has cooled completely.

WARNING

Cautions during setting up the dis-

As the hybrid system needs to be operat-

ing 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 includ-

ing harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may

collect and enter the vehicle. This may

lead to death or a serious health hazard.

NOTICE

WARNING

Before using the head-up display

Check that the position and brightness of

the head-up display image does not

interfere with safe driving. Incorrect

adjustment of the image’s position or

brightness may obstruct the driver’s view

and lead to an accident, resulting in

Caution for changing settings of the

head-up display

As the hybrid system needs to be operat-

ing while changing the settings of the

head-up display, ensure that the vehicle

is parked in a place with adequate venti-

lation. 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 damage to components

Do not place any drinks near the head-

up display projector. If the projector

gets wet, electrical malfunctions may

result.

Do not place anything on or put stick-

ers onto the head-up display projector.

Doing so could interrupt head-up dis-

play indications.
