The meters and display illuminate when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON mode. ■
The brightness of the instrument panel lights
When the tail lights are turned on, the meter’ s brightness will be reduced slightly unless
the meter brightness leve l adjustment is set to the brightest setting.
If the tail lights are turned on when the surroundings are dark, the meter’s brightness will
be reduced slightly. However, when the surroundings are bright, such as during the day-
time, the meter’s brightness will not be reduced even if the tail lights are turned on. ■
Customization
The meter display can be customized on the multi-information display. (  P. 585)
WA R N I N G ■
The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information
display. At extremely low temperatures, th e information display monitor may respond
slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear number
appearing on the display. This lag could cau se the driver to downshift again, causing
rapid and excessive engine braking and po ssibly an accident resulting in death or
injury.
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. 5 5 6 )■
Vo l t m e t e r
When the voltmeter indicates 19 V or higher or 9 V or lower while the engine is run-
ning, there may be a battery or charging system malfunction. Have the vehicle
inspected at your Lexus dealer. ■
Engine oil pressure gauge
When the value of the engine oil pressure gauge drops while the engine is running,
stop the vehicle in a safe place immediat ely and check the amount of engine oil.
(  P. 4 7 5 )
When the oil pressure drops even though th e engine oil amount has not decreased, or
if the oil pressure does not increase when engine oil is added, contact your Lexus
dealer, as there may be a proble m with the lubrication system.

Battery-saving function
The battery-saving function will be activated in order to prevent the electronic key bat-
tery and the battery from being discharged wh ile the vehicle is not in operation for a long
time. ●
In the following situations, the smart access system with push-button start may take
some time to unlock the doors.
• The electronic key has been left in an area of approximately 6 ft. (2 m) of the outside
of the vehicle for 10 minutes or longer.
• The smart access system with push-butto n start has not been used for 5 days or
longer. ●
If the smart access system with push-butto n start has not been used for 14 days or
longer, the doors cannot be unlocked at any doors except the driver’s door. In this case,
take hold of the driver’s door handle, or us e the wireless remote control or the mechan-
ical key, to unlock the doors. ■
Electronic Key Battery-Saving Function
When battery-saving mode is set, battery depletion is minimized by stopping the elec-
tronic key from receiving radio waves.
The smart access system with push-button start uses weak radio waves. In the following
situations, the communication between th e electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart access system with push-button start, wireless remote
control and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping:  P. 5 5 0 )●
When the electronic key battery is depleted ●
Near a TV tower, electric powe r plant, gas station, radio stat ion, large display, airport or
other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical noise ●
When the electronic key is in contact wi th, or is covered by the following metallic
objects
• Portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless communication
device
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
•Coins
•Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs ●
When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearbyPress twice while pressing and holding
. Confirm that the electronic key indica-
tor flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set, the smart
access system with push-button start cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any of the
electronic key buttons.

To avoid malfunction of the camera sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Otherwise, the camera sensor may not operat e properly, possibly leading to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious injury. ●
Keep the windshield clean at all times.
If the windshield is dirty or covered with an oily film, water droplets, snow, etc., clear
the windshield.
If the inner side of the windshield where the camera sensor is installed is dirty, contact
your Lexus dealer.
●
If the part of the windshield in front of th e camera sensor is fogged up or covered with
condensation or ice, use the windshield defogger to remove the fog, condensation or
ice. (  P. 4 0 1 )●
Do not apply glass coating agents to the area of the windshield in front of the camera
sensor.
Glass coating agents can be applied to the windshield in areas other than in front of
the camera sensor. However, it will still be necessary to use the wipers if the area of
the windshield in front of the camera sensor is covered with water droplets. ●
If water droplets cannot be properly remove d from the area of the windshield in front
of the camera sensor by the windshield wipers, replace the wiper insert or wiper
blade.
If the wiper inserts or wiper blades need to be replaced, contact your Lexus dealer. ●
Do not attach window tinting to the windshield. ●
Replace the windshield if it is damaged or cracked.
If the windshield needs to be re placed, contact your Lexus dealer.●
Do not get the camera sensor wet. ●
Do not allow bright lights to shine into the camera sensor. ●
Do not dirty or damage the camera sensor.
When cleaning the inside of the windshield , do not allow glass cleaner to contact the
lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
If the lens is dirty or damage d, contact your Lexus dealer.●
Do not subject the camera sensor to a strong impact. ●
Do not install an antenna or attach stickers
(including transparent stickers) or other items
to the area of the windshield in front of the
camera sensor (shaded area in the illustra-

NOTICE ■
How to use the cameras ●
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the Multi-terrain
Monitor from operating properly.
• Do not strike the camera area, or allow any objects to bump into it
If the camera or surrounding area has re ceived a strong impact, the camera posi-
tion, installation angle, etc., may deviate. If the camera is accidentally subjected to
an impact, have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus dealer.
• Do not remove, disassemble or modify the camera or surrounding parts
Doing so may result in the camera malfunct ioning. This also may result in a loss of
waterproof performance.
• If the camera lens is dirty, follow the above procedures to clean it
If the camera lens is damaged it cannot transmit a clear image.
Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, oil film remover, glass coating, etc. to con-
tact the camera cover
Doing so will negatively affect the camera co ver (resin). If this happens, wipe it off
immediately.
• When the outside temperature is cold, do not cause any sudden changes in tem-
perature, such as by applying hot water ●
When washing the vehicle, do not apply water with a high-pressure washer to the
camera or surrounding area . Doing so may cause the camera to receive a strong
impact, and the camera may not operate properly
