lamp comes on. Make sure the cap is tightened securely.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving several times. If the
indicator lamp does not go off, contact your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
CAUTION
 Make sure the cap is tightened securely to prevent
fuel spillage in the event of an accident.
 Use only a genuine Lexus fuel tank cap for
replacement. It is designed to regulate fuel tank
pressure.
Refueling the vehicle
As soon as the correctly operated nozzle switches off
automatically for the first time, the tank is full. Do not try
to add more fuel, because fuel may spill out.

MOON ROOF
SV15003
 1Open 2Close
To slide open the moon roof, push the switch on the rear
side briefly. The moon roof will open and stop partway 80
mm (3.2 in.) from the fully opened position. When you
push the switch again, the moon roof will open fully. To
stop partway, push the same switch or ªTILTº switch
briefly while the moon roof is moving.
As driving with the moon roof opened fully will cause wind
throbs, we recommend you to drive with the moon roof partway
80 mm (3.2 in.) from the fully opened position.
To operate the moon roof, the ignition key must be in the ªONº
position.
The sun shade can be opened or closed manually. However,
if you open the moon roof, the sun shade will be opened with
the moon roof.To close the moon roof, push the switch on the front side.
The moon roof will fully close. To stop partway, push the
same switch or ªTILTº switch.
SS15012
 1Tilt up 2Lower
To tilt up the rear end of the moon roof fully, push the
switch on the rear side or on the front side to lower it.
To operate the moon roof, the ignition key must be in the ªONº
position.
Retained accessory power:
Even if the ignition key is turned
to the ªACCº or ªLOCKº position, the moon roof can be
operated until either of the front doors is opened (or for about
45 seconds).

Jam protection function
During closing operation, the moon roof stops and is open if
something gets caught into the roof opening.
If the moon roof receives a strong impact, this function may
work even if nothing is caught.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the
following.
While the vehicle is moving, always keep the heads,
hands and other parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Otherwise, they could be
seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or if
the vehicle is involved in an accident.
 Before you close the moon roof, always make sure
there is nobody around the moon roof. You must also
make sure nobody places his or her head, hands and
other parts of the body in the roof opening. If
someone's neck, head or hands get caught in the
closing roof, it could result in a serious injury. When
anyone closes the moon roof, first make sure it is safe
to do so.
 Be sure to remove the ignition key or turn the ignition
switch to the ªLOCKº position when you leave your
vehicle.
Never leave anyone (particularly a small child) alone
in your vehicle, especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could use the moon roof
switches and get trapped in the roof opening.
Unattended person (p articularly a small child) can be
involved in a serious accident.
 Never sit on top of the vehicle around the roof
opening.
 Never try jamming any part of your body to activate
the jam protection function intentionally.
 The jam protection function may not work if
something gets caught just before the moon roof
fully closed.
