WARNING
■If a safety system warning light does
not come on
Should a safety system light such as the
ABS and SRS warning light not come on
when you start the engine, this could
mean that these systems are not avail-
able 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.
