All the turn signal lights will flash. To turn them off,
press the switch once again.

INFORMATION

Emergency flashers

If the emergency flashers are used for a long time with the hybrid system stopped
(while the "READY" indicator is not illuminated), the 12-volt battery may become
discharged.

If any of the SRS airbags deploy (inflate) or in the event of a strong rear impact, the
emergency flashers will turn on automatically.
The emergency flashers will turn off automatically after operating for approximately
20 minutes. To manually turn the emergency flashers off, press the switch twice. (The
emergency flashers may not turn on automatically depending on the force of the
impact and conditions of the collision.)

Stopping the vehicle in an emergency

If the vehicle is submerged or water on the road is rising

This vehicle is not designed to be able to drive on roads that are deeply flooded
with water. Do not drive on roads where the roads may be submerged or the water
may be rising. It is dangerous to remain in the vehicle, if it anticipated that the
vehicle will be flooded or set a drift.
Remain calm and follow the following.

If the door can be opened, open the door and exit the vehicle.

If the door cannot be opened, open the window using the power window switch
and ensure an escape route.

If the window can be opened, exit the vehicle through the window.

If the door and window cannot be opened due to the rising water, remain calm,
wait until the water level inside the vehicle rises to the point that the water
pressure inside of the vehicle equals the water pressure outside of the vehicle
and then open the door after waiting for the rising water to enter the vehicle, and
exit the vehicle.

9-1. What to do if a problem occurs while driving

606

When the outside water level exceeds half the height of the door, the door cannot be
opened from the inside due to water pressure.

INFORMATION

get damaged, the power windows will not operate, the engine and motor stop, and the
vehicle may not be able to get moving.

WARNING

Caution while driving

Do not drive on roads where the roads may be submerged or the water may be rising.
Otherwise the vehicle may be damaged and cannot move, as well as become flooded
and set a drift, which may lead to death.

Operation of emergency shut off system

When a certain level of impact is detected by an impact sensor, the emergency
shut off system blocks the high voltage current and stops the fuel pump to mini-
mize the risk of electrocution and fuel leakage. If the emergency shut off system
activates, your vehicle will not be able to be restarted. To restart the hybrid system,
contact your Lexus dealer.
