■If a safety system warning light does not come on

come on 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 any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional immediately if this occurs.
