when you start the engine, 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.

driven since the meter was last reset. Trip
meters A and B can be used to record and
display different distances independently.

 Distance until next engine oil

change

Displays the distance the vehicle can be
driven until an oil change is necessary.

■

Changing the display

Each time the “ODO TRIP” switch is
pressed, the displayed item will be
changed. When the trip meter is dis-
played, pressing and holding the switch
will reset the trip meter.

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 personal 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. (
