(f) ABSº Warning Light
The light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the ONº
position. If the anti-lock brake system and the brake assist
system work properly, the light turns off after a few seconds.
Thereafter, if either of the systems malfunctions, the light
comes on again.
When the ABSº warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the following systems do not operate, but
the brake system still operates conventionally.
Anti-lock brake system
Brake assist system
Active traction control system
Vehicle stability control system
Downhill assist control system
Hill-start assist control system
When the ABSº warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the anti-lock brake system does not
operate, so that the wheels will lock up during a sudden braking
or braking on slippery road surfaces.
If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates
a malfunction somewhere in the components monitored
by the warning light system. Contact your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle.
The light does not come on when the ignition key is turned
to the ONº position, or remains on.
The light comes on while you are driving.A warning light turning on briefly during operation does not
indicate a problem.
CAUTION
If the ABSº warning light remains on together with the
brake system warning light, immediately stop your
vehicle at a safe place and contact your Lexus dealer.
In this case, not only the anti-lock brake system will fail
but also the vehicle will become extremely unstable
during braking.
Either of the following conditions may occur, but do not
indicate a malfunction:
The light may stay on for about 60 seconds after the ignition
key is turned to the ONº position. It is normal if it turns off
after a while.
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may turn on the
light. It is normal if it turns off after a few seconds.

(g) Open Door Warning Light
This light remains on until all the side doors and back door are
completely closed.
(h) Unengaged Parkº Warning Light
This light warns that the transmission Parkº mechanism is not
engaged. If the four-wheel drive control is in the Nº position
while the selector lever is in the Pº position, the transmission
will disengage and the wheels will not lock.
CAUTION
To restore the park function, shift the four-wheel drive
control out of Nº.
(i) Automatic Transmission Fluid Temperature
Warning Light
This light warns that the automatic transmission fluid
temperature is too high.
If this light comes on while you are driving, slow down and pull
off the road. Stop the vehicle at a safe place and put the
selector lever in Pº and leave the engine idling until the light
goes off. If the light goes off, you can start the vehicle again.
If the light does not go off, call a Lexus dealer or qualified repair
shop for assistance.
NOTICE
Continued driving with the warning light on may
damage the automatic transmission.
