played, or the display may take longer
than normal to change:
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 12 mph [20 km/h])
• When the outside temperature has
changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of
a garage, tunnel, etc.)
●When “_ _”or “E” is displayed, the system
may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to your Lexus dealer.
■Pop-up display
●In some situations, su ch as when a switch
operation is performed, a pop-up display
will be temporarily displayed on the
multi-information display or the odome-
ter/trip meter screen (F SPORT models).
●Some pop-up displays can be set on/off.

■Display items
 Odometer
Displays the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.
Trip meter A/trip meter B

Distance until next engine oil
change
Displays the distance the vehicle can be

■Changing the display
Each time the “ODO TRIP” switch is
pressed, the displayed item will be

WARNING
■The information display at low tem-
peratures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm
up before using the liquid crystal infor-
mation display. At extremely low tem-
peratures, the 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 num-
ber appearing on the display. This lag
could cause the driver to downshift
again, causing rapid and excessive
engine braking and possibly an accident
resulting in personal 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, imme-
diately stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and check the engine after it has
cooled completely. ( P.309)
