again.
■Emergency flashers
If the emergency flashers are used for a long time while the hybrid system is not

cle has to be stopped in the road due to a breakdown, etc.

■If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
First check the following:
●Is the fuel tank empty?
If it is, fill the fuel tank immediately.
●Is the fuel tank cap loose?
If it is, tighten it securely.
The light will go off after several driving trips.
If the light does not go off even after several trips, contact your Lexus dealer as soon
as possible.

drops, the electric power steering system warning light may come on and the warn-
ing buzzer may sound.
