For your information
Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equipment, includ-
ing options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not installed
on y
our vehicle.
All specifications provided in this manual are current at the time of printing. How -
ever, because of the Lexus policy of contin ua
l product improvement, we reserve the
right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrations may differ from
y
our vehicle in terms of color and equipment.
Noise from under vehicle after turning off the hybrid system
Approximately five hours after the hybrid system is turned off, you may hear sound
coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the sound of a fuel evapo -
ration leakage check and, it does not indicate a malfunction.
Accessories, spare parts and modification of your Lexus
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Lexus vehicles are
currently available in the market. You should know that Toyota does not warrant
these products and is not responsible for their performance, repair, or replacement,
or for any damage they may cause to, or adverse effect they may have on, your
Lexus vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Lexus products. Modification
with
non-genuine Lexus products could affect its performance, safety or durability,
and may even violate governmental regula tions. In addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from the modi fication may not be
covered under war-
ranty.

Installation of a mobile two-way radio system
As the installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as the multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport
fuel injection system, cruise control syst em, anti-lock brake system, SRS airbag sys -
tem and seat belt pretensioner system, be sur
e to check with your Lexus dealer for
precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installation.
High voltage parts and cables on the hybr i
d vehicles emit approximately the same
amount of electromagnetic waves as the conventional gasoline powered vehicles or
home electronic appliances despite of their electromagnetic shielding.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the mobile two-way radio.
Scrapping of your Lexus
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Lexus contain explosive
chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left
as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of
the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified
service shop or by your Lexus deal er before you scrap your vehicle.
Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply, See www.d tsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These components may
i
nclude airbag, seat belt pretensioners, and wireless remote control batteries.

1-1. Hybrid system
Hybrid system
Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from con-
ventional vehicles. Be sure you are clos ely familiar
with the characteristics
of your vehicle, and operate with care.
The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric
motor (
traction motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel effi -
ciency and reducing exhaust emissions.
Gasoline engine
Electric motor (Traction motor)
■ When stopped/
during start off
The gasoline engine stops* when the v
ehicle is stopped. During
start off, the electric motor (traction motor) drives the vehicle. At
slow speeds or when traveling down a gentle slope, the engine is
stopped* and the motor is used.
When shift position N is selected, the hybrid batter
y (traction bat-
tery) will not be charged. Thus, sele ct P when the v
ehicle is stopped.
In addition, when driving in heavy traffic, use D or B.

1-1. Hybrid system
Hybrid battery air vent
There is an air intake vent on the
side of the rear left seatback for
the purpose of cooling the hybrid
battery (traction battery). If the
vent become blocked, the hybrid
battery may overheat, leading to a
reduction in hybrid battery output.
Emergency shut off system
When a certain level of impact is detected by the impact sensor, the
emergency shut off system blocks off the high voltage current and stops
the fuel pump to minimize the risk of electrocution and fuel leakage. If the
emergency shut off system activates, yo ur vehicle will not restart. To
restart the hybrid system, contact your Lexus dealer.
Hybrid warning message
A message is automatically displayed when a malfunction occurs in the
hybrid system or an improper operation is attempted.
If a warning message is shown on
the multi-information display
, read
the message and follow the
instructions.

Before driving
■If a warning light comes on, a warning message is displayed, or the 12-volt battery
is disconnected
The hybrid system may not start. In that case,
try to start the system again. If the
“READY” indicator does not come on, contact your Lexus dealer.
■Electromagnetic waves
●High voltage parts and cables on the hybrid vehicles incorporate electromag -
netic shielding, and therefore emit appr o
ximately the same amount of electro-
magnetic waves as conventional gasoline powered vehicles or home electronic
appl
iances.
●Your vehicle may cause sound interference in some third party produced radio
parts.
●Consult your Lexus dealer before installing or removing third party-produced
radio parts.
■Running out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid sy
stem cannot be started, refuel
the vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light
( P. 4 9 5 ) go off. If there is only a small amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not
be able to start. (The minimum amount of
fuel to add to make the low fuel level
warning light go out is more than 2.6 gal. [1 0 L, 2.1 Imp.gal.], when the vehicle is on a
level surface. This value may vary when the vehicle is on a slope.)
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a limited service life. The lifespan of the
hybri
d battery (traction battery) can chan ge in accordance with driving style and
driving conditions.
