CAUTION
■When the Emergency Call may not be made
●Any of the followings may occur. In such cases, report to the Public Safety
Answering Point (PSAP) by other means such as nearby public phones.
• It may sometimes be difficult to connect to the Public Safety Answering Point
(PSAP) even in the reception area of the cellular phone due to the reception
level, or if the line is busy.
In such cases, you may not be able to connect to the Public Safety Answering
Point (PSAP) and thus will not be able to make emergency calls and report to
the emergency departments even though the system tries to connect to the
Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP).
• When the vehicle is out of the cellular phone service area, the Emergency Call
cannot be made.
• When any related equipment (such as the “SOS” button panel, indicators,
microphone, speaker, DCM, antenna, or any wires connecting the equip-
ment.) has an abnormality, is damaged or broken, the Emergency Call cannot
be made.
• During the Emergency Call, the system makes repeated attempts to connect
to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP). However, if it cannot connect to
the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) due to poor radio wave reception,
the system may not be able to connect to the cellular network and the call may
finish without connecting. The red indicator light will blink for approximately
30 seconds to indicate this disconnection.
• This device may not function if a shock is applied to it.
●If the battery's voltage decreases or there is a disconnection, the system may not
be able to access the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP).
■When replacing DCM to a new one
ERA-GLONASS have to be activated. Contact your Lexus dealer.

NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear due to
dirt in the air.
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads wear or
when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.
