Manually updating the fuel gauge and

possible driving range

The fuel gauge and the possible driving

range are linked. If the displays of the fuel

gauge and possible driving range do not

update after adding a small amount of fuel,

the displays can be updated by performing

the following procedure.

Stop the vehicle on a level surface.

Press the “ODO TRIP” switch to

change the odometer and trip meter

display to odometer.

Turn the engine switch off.

While pressing and holding the “ODO

TRIP” switch, turn the engine switch to

IGNITION ON mode.

Continue to hold the “ODO TRIP”

switch for approximately 5 seconds,

and then release it once the odometer

begins flashing.

Updating is complete once the odometer

flashes for approximately 5 seconds and

then the display returns to normal.

■

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.

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 num-

ber appearing on the display. This lag

could cause the driver to downshift

again, causing rapid and excessive

engine braking 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. (
