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 hybrid system, this 
could mean that these systems are not 
available to help protect you in an acci-
dent, which could result in death or seri-
ous injury. Have the  vehicle inspected by 
your Lexus dealer immediately if this 
occurs.
