For safety and security
IS300h_EE(OM53D89E)
■If a warning light comes on, a warning message is displayed, or the 12-volt battery is dis-
connected
The hybrid system may not start. In this case, try to start the system again. If the “READY” indicator does not come on, contact any au thorized Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Running out of fuel
When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel the
vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light (P. 577)
go off. If there is only a smal l amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not be able to start. (The standard amount of fuel is about 10 L [2.7 gal., 2.2 Imp. gal.], when the vehicle is on
a level surface. This value may vary when the vehicle is on a slope. Add extra fuel when
the vehicle is inclined.)
■Electromagnetic waves
●High voltage parts and cables on hybrid ve hicles incorporate electromagnetic shield-
ing, and therefore emit approximately the same amount of electromagnetic waves as conventional gasoline powered vehicles or home electronic appliances.
●Your vehicle may cause sound interference in some third party-produced radio parts.
■Hybrid battery (traction battery)
The hybrid battery (traction battery) has a li mited service life. The lifespan of the hybrid
battery (traction battery) can change in acco rdance with driving style and driving condi-
tions.
■Declaration of conformity
This model conforms to hydrogen emission s according to regulation ECE100 (Battery
electric vehicle safety).

951-3. Theft deterrent system
1
For safety and security
IS300h_EE(OM53D89E)
●The intrusion sensor detects intruders or movement in the vehicle.
●The tilt sensor detects changes in vehicle inclination, such as when the vehicle
is towed away.
This system is designed to deter and pr event vehicle theft but does not guarantee
absolute security ag ainst all intrusions.
■Setting the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
The intrusion sensor and t ilt sensor will be set automatically when the alarm is
set. ( P. 92)
■Canceling the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor
If you are leaving pets or other moving things inside the vehicle, make sure to
disable the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor before setting the alarm, as they will
respond to movement inside the vehicle.
Turn the power switch off.
Press the intrusion sensor and tilt
sensor cancel switch.
Press the switch again to re-enable
the intrusion sensor and tilt sensor.
Each time the intrusion sensor is can- celed/set, a message will be shown
on the multi-information display in
the instrument cluster.

■Rev indicator (F SPORT models)
When the engine reaches a set
speed, a ring-shaped indicator will
be displayed on the tachometer.
The desired engine speed at which the Rev indicator will begin to be dis-
played can be set on of the multi-
information display. ( P. 119)
■Rev peak (F SPORT models)
The engine speed reaches or
exceeds 4000 r/min, an afterimage
of the tachometer will be displayed
at the highest engine speed for
approximately 0.5 seconds.

●By keeping the indicator needle (except F SPORT models) or bar display (F SPORT models) within the Eco area, more Ec o-friendly driving can be achieved.
●Charge area indicates regeneration* status. Regenerated energy will be used to
charge the hybrid battery (traction battery).
*: When used in this manual, regeneration refe rs to the conversion of energy created by
the movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.

■Tachometer
Hybrid System Indicator switches to the tachometer when driving mode is in sport mode.
The settings of the tachometer display can be changed on the multi-information display.
( P. 119)
■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 displayed, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
●When stopped, or driving at low sp eeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
●When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
■Pop-up display
●In some situations, such as when a switch operation is performed, a pop-up display will be temporarily displayed on the multi-info rmation display or the odometer/trip meter
screen (F SPORT models).
●Some pop-up displays can be set on/off. ( P. 119)
■Customization
The meter display can be customized on the multi-information display. (P. 119)
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and its components
●Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which indicates
the maximum engine speed.
●The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is in the red zone (H). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place, and check the
engine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 636)
