ESP Lexus ES300h 2019 (OM06178U) Workshop Manual

3867-2. Steps to take in an emergency
6Open and close any of the doors of
your vehicle with the power switch
off.
7 Maintain the engine speed of the
second vehicle and start the hybrid
system of your vehicle by turning
the power switch to ON mode.
8 Make sure the “READY” indicator
comes on. If the indicator does not
come on, contact your Lexus
dealer.
9 Once the vehicle’s hybrid system
has started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse order
from which they were connected.
10 Close the exclusive jump starting
terminal cover, and reinstall the fuse
box cover to tits original position.
Once the hybrid system starts, have the
vehicle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-
volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by
push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio sys-
tem while the hybrid system is stopped.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical com-
ponents when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such
as in heavy traffic.
■When the 12-volt battery is removed or
discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is cleared.
When the 12-volt battery is depleted,
have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus
dealer.
●Some systems may require initialization.
(  P.423)
■When removing the 12-volt battery ter-
minals
When the 12-volt battery terminals are
removed, the information stored in the
ECU is cleared. Before removing the 12-
volt battery terminals, contact your Lexus
dealer.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery
will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural dis-
charge and the draining effects of certain
electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for
a long time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the hybrid system may be
unable to start. (The 12-volt battery
recharges automatically while the hybrid
system is operating.)
■When recharging or replacing the 12-
volt battery
●In some cases, it may not be possible to
unlock the doors using the smart access
system with push-button start when the
12-volt battery is discharged. Use the
wireless remote control or the mechani-
cal key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The hybrid system may not start on the
first attempt after the 12-volt battery has
recharged but will start normally after the
second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The power switch mode is memorized by
the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is
reconnected, the system will return to the
mode it was in before the 12-volt battery
was discharged. Before disconnecting
the 12-volt battery, turn the power switch
off.
If you are unsure what mode the power
switch was in before the 12-volt battery
discharged, be especially careful when
reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a 12-volt battery that conforms to
European regulations.
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN2), 20 hour
rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent
(60Ah) or greater, and performance rat-
ing (CCA) is equivalent (345A) or
greater.

When trouble arises
power control unit coolant is unavailable.
6After stopping the hybrid system
and waiting for 5 minutes or more,
start the hybrid system again and
check if “Hybrid system overheated
Output power reduced” is shown
on the multi-information display.
If the message does not disappear:
Stop the hybrid system and contact your
Lexus dealer.
If the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature has
dropped and the vehicle may be driven
normally.
However, if the message appears again fre-
quently, contact your Lexus dealer.
WARNING
■When inspecting under the hood of
your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious
injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under the
hood, do not open the hood until the
steam has subsided. The engine com-
partment may be very hot.
●After the hybrid system has been
turned off, check that the “READY”
indicator are off.
When the hybrid system is operating,
the gasoline engine may automatically
start, or the cooling fan may suddenly
operate even if the gasoline engine
stops. Do not touch or approach rotat-
ing parts such as the fan, which may
lead to fingers or clothing (especially a
tie, a scarf or a muffler) getting caught,
resulting in serious injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant inlet cap or
coolant reservoir caps while the hybrid
system and radiator are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power control
unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid sys-
tem has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too
quickly can cause damage to the hybrid
system.
■To prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with
foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.

Vehicle specifications
■Traction AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C, and they
represent the tire’s ability to stop on
wet pavement as measured under con-
trolled conditions on specified govern-
ment test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete.
A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to
this tire is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not include
cornering (turning) traction.
■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudd
en tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of perfor-
mance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Fede ral Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades of a tire
assume that it is properly inflated and not
overloaded.
Excessive speed, unde rinflation, or exces-
sive loading, either separately or in combi-
nation, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.

AVERTISSEMENT
●Ne fixez et n’appuyez rien sur des
zones telles que la planche de bord, le
tampon de volant ou encore la partie
inférieure du tableau de bord.
Ces objets peuvent se transformer en
projectiles lorsque les coussins gonfla-
bles SRS du conducteur, du passager
avant et de protection des genoux se
déploient.
●Ne fixez rien sur des zones telles que
les portières, le pare-brise, les glaces
latérales, les montants avant ou
arrière, le brancard de pavillon et la
poignée de maintien.
●N’accrochez pas de cintres ni d’autres
objets rigides sur les crochets porte-
vêtements. Tous ces objets pourraient
se transformer en projectiles et vous
occasionner des blessures graves,
voire mortelles, en cas de déploiement
des coussins gonflables SRS en rideau.
●Si un recouvrement de vinyle est placé
sur la zone de déploiement du coussin
gonflable SRS de protection des
genoux, veillez à le retirer.
●N’utilisez pas d’accessoires recou-
vrant les parties du siège où les couss-
ins gonflables SRS latéraux se
déploient, car ces accessoires pour-
raient entraver le déploiement des
coussins gonflables SRS. De tels
accessoires peuvent empêcher les
coussins gonflables latéraux de se
déployer correctement, rendre le sys-
tème inopérant ou provoquer acci-
dentellement le déploiement des
coussins gonflables latéraux, occa-
sionnant des blessures graves, voire
mortelles.
●Ne frappez pas et n’appliquez pas une
pression importante à l’emplacement
des portières avant ou des com-
posants des coussins gonflables SRS.
Cela peut provoquer un mauvais
fonctionnement des coussins gonfla-
bles SRS.
●Ne touchez à aucun composant des
coussins gonflables SRS immédiate-
ment après leur déploiement (gon-
flage), car ils pourraient être chauds.
●Si vous avez de la difficulté à respirer
après le déploiement des coussins
gonflables SRS, ouvrez une portière
ou une glace pour laisser entrer l’air
frais, ou quittez le véhicule si vous pou-
vez le faire en toute sécurité. Dès que
possible, nettoyez tous les résidus afin
d’éviter les irritations cutanées.
●Si les emplacements de stockage des
coussins gonflables SRS, tels que le
tampon de volant et les garnitures des
montants avant et arrière, sont endom-
magés ou fissurés, faites-les remplacer
par votre concessionnaire Lexus.
●Ne placez aucun objet, par exemple
un coussin, sur le siège du passager
avant. Cela disperse rait le poids du
passager, ce qui empêcherait le cap-
teur de le détecter correctement. Cela
pourrait empêcher le déploiement des
coussins gonflables SRS du passager
avant en cas de collision.
