Installation of an RF-transmitter system
The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as:
Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
Cruise control system
Dynamic radar cruise control system
Anti-lock brake system
SRS airbag system
Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional for precautionary measures or spe-
cial instructions regarding installation of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding frequency bands, power levels, antenna posi-
tions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is
available on request at any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles emit approximately the
same amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline pow-
ered vehicles or home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic
shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the RF-transmitter.

When driving

About engine braking
When shift position B is selected, releasing the accelerator pedal will apply
engine braking.
• When the vehicle is driven at high speeds, compared to ordinary gaso-
line-fueled vehicles, the engine braking deceleration is felt less than that
of other vehicles.
• The vehicle can be accelerated even when shift position B is selected.
If the vehicle is driven continuously in the B position, fuel efficiency will
become low. Usually, select the D position.
When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control activated
Even if switching the driving mode to sport mode with the intent of enabling
engine braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or
dynamic radar cruise control will not be canceled.
Automatically P position selection function
When the shift position is in a position other than P, pressing the “POWER”
switch with the vehicle stopped completely will cause the shift position to
change to P automatically, and then the “POWER” switch will turn off.
If the shift position cannot be shifted from P
There is a possibility that the 12-volt battery is discharged. Check the 12-
volt battery in this situation. (P. 633)
Sport mode automatic deactivation
Sport mode is automatically deactivated if the “POWER” switch is turned
off after driving in sport mode.
After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery

Customization
Settings (e.g. Reverse warning buzzer) can be changed.

ECO lamp and SPORT lamp (if equipped)
When sport mode is selected, the SPORT lamp (red) will illuminate.
When all of the following conditions are satisfied and the Eco-friendly
driving, the ECO lamp (blue) will illuminate:
• When driving with the shift position in D
• When either normal mode or Eco mode are selected, and EV drive
mode is not in use
• The vehicle speed is 130 km/h (80 mph) or below.
Tachometer (if equipped)
Hybrid System Indicator automatically switches to the tachometer when the
driving mode is set to the sport mode. However, while the cruise control or
dynamic radar cruise control is active, Hybrid System Indicator will not
automatically switch to the tachometer. When the cruise control or dynamic
radar cruise control is activated while the tachometer is displayed, the
tachometer will automatically switch to Hybrid System Indicator.
Engine speed
On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is precisely controlled in order to help
improve fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emissions etc.
There are times when the engine speed that is displayed may differ even
when vehicle operation and driving conditions are the same.
Outside temperature display
In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit
of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
