LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) CAUTION■
Refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle.
Failure to do so, may result in death or serious injury. ●
Touch the vehicle or some other metal surface to discharge any static electricity.
Sparks resulting from discha rging static electricity may cause the fuel vapors to
ignite. ●
Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened. Wait until
the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap.
In hot weather, pressurized fuel may spray out of the filler neck and cause injury. ●
Do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their bodies to
come close to an open fuel tank. ●
Do not inhale vaporized fuel.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled. ●
Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire. ●
Do not return to the vehicle or touch an y person or object that is statically
charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up , resulting in a possible ignition hazard.■
When replacing the fuel tank cap
Do not use anything but a genuine Lexus fuel tank cap designed for your vehicle.
Failure to do so may cause a fire or other incident which may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
NOTICE■
Refueling
Do not spill fuel during refueling.
Failure to do so may damage the vehicle, such as causing the exhaust systems to
operate abnormally or damaging fuel syst em components or the vehicle’s painted
surface.

Daytime running light system ●
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the parking lights turn on
automatically (at an increased intensity) whenever the engine is started and the
parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are not designed for use at
night. ●
Compared to turning on th e headlights, the daytime running light system offers
greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve fuel
economy.■
Headlight control sensor
■
Automatic light off system ●
When the headlights are on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 seconds
after a door is opened and closed if the “ENGINE START STOP” switch has
been switched to AC CESSORY or OFF mode.●
When only the tail lights are on: The tail lights turn off automatically if the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch is switched to ACCESSORY or OFF mode
and driver’s door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNITION
ON mode, or turn the light switch off once and then back to the
or
position. The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or anything
that blocks the sensor is affixed to the wind-
shield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor detecting
the level of ambient light and may cause the
automatic headlight system to malfunction.
