■Speed indicator
When the vehicle reaches the set
speed, the speed unit display will turn
yellow.
The indicators will be displayed in yellow
(corresponding to a speed set by a user) or
red (fixed at 100 mph [160 km/h])

Vehicle status information and indicators
■Rev peak (Normal mode/SPORT
S mode)
The engine speed reaches or exceeds
3600 rpm, an afterimage of the
tachometer will be displayed at the
highest engine speed for approxi-
mately 1 second.
■Meter display and layout
If the drive mode is changed, some of
the meter displays and the gauge lay-
out will be changed. ( P.192)
■The meters and display illuminate when
The engine switch is in IGNITION ON
mode.
■Welcome illumination of the analog
speedometer
●When the driver’s door is opened, the
analog speedometer will illuminate. Then,
when the driver’s door is closed, the ana-
log speedometer will illuminate and go
off (pulsate) 3 times.
●In the following situations, the analog
speedometer will not pulsate even
though the driver’s door is opened and
closed:
• Within 60 seconds after the analog
meter pulsation completes
• Within 60 seconds of turning the engine switch off
■Variable red zone
To help protect the engine, the engine
speed is controlled by starting the red zone
of the tachometer at different engine
speeds ranging from 3700 rpm to 7300
rpm depending on the engine coolant tem-
perature. Before driving under extremely
high load conditions, make sure to suffi-
ciently warm up the engine.
■Eco driving meter
●The number of blue segments displayed
on the eco driving meter
decreases/increases depending on the
vehicle acceleration. Use this meter as a
guideline when you wish to drive in an
eco-friendly manner that reduces fuel
consumption.
However, on a downward grade where
the vehicle can accelerate without the
accelerator pedal being depressed, the
eco driving meter ma y not display the
eco-driving state correctly.
●When the shift lever is moved to P, N or
R, the segments will turn gray and the eco
driving meter will not operate.
■Dimming the analog speedometer
lighting
The analog speedometer lighting will be
dimmed when the ambient light is bright,
such as during the daytime, and SPORT S
or SPORT S+ mode is selected.
■Outside temperature display
●In the following situations, the correct
outside temperature may not be dis-
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
Changing the display

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, such as when a switch
operation is performe d, a pop-up display
will be temporarily displayed on the
multi-information display.
●Some pop-up displays can be set on/off.
( P.81)
■Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the
display. This phenomen on is characteristic
of liquid crystal displays, and there is no
problem continuing to use the display.
■Customization
The meter display can be customized on
the multi-information display. ( P.358)
■Display items
Odometer
Displays the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.
Trip meter A/trip meter B
Displays the distance the vehicle has been
driven since the meter was last reset. Trip
meters A and B can be used to record and
display different distances independently.
To reset, display the desired trip meter and
press and hold the odometer/trip meter
and trip meter reset button.
■Changing the display
Each time the “ODO TRIP” switch is
pressed, the displayed item will be
changed. When the trip meter is dis-
played, pressing and holding the switch
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 number
appearing on the display. This lag could
cause the driver to downshift again,
causing rapid and excessive engine brak-
ing and possibly an accident resulting in
death or injury.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and
its components
●Do not let the indicator of the tachom-
eter enter the red zone, as it rep-
resents the engine speed range which
exceeds the maximum safe engine
speed.
●In the following situations, the engine
may be overheating. In this case,
immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and check the engine after it has
cooled completely. ( P.336)
• The engine coolant temperature gauge indicator ( ) is in the red
zone and flashing.
• The engine oil temperature gauge indicator ( ) is in the red zone and
flashing.
