4127-2. Steps to take in an emergency
If “Hybrid system overheated Out-
put power reduced” is shown on the
multi-information display
1
Stop the vehicle in a safe place.
2
Stop the hybrid system and care-
fully lift the hood.
3
After the hybrid system has cooled
down, inspect the hoses and radia-
tor core (radiator) for any leaks.
Radiator
Cooling fans
If a large amount of coolant leaks, immedi-
ately contact your Lexus dealer.
4The coolant level is satisfactory if it
is between the “F” and “L” lines on
the reservoir.
Reservoir
“F” line
“L” line 5
Add coolant if necessary.
Water can be used in an emergency if
coolant is unavailable.
6After stopping the hybrid system
and waiting for 5 minutes or more,
start the hybrid system again and
check if “Hybrid system overheated
Output power reduced” is shown
on the multi-information display.
If the message does not disappear:
Stop the hybrid system and contact your
Lexus dealer.
If the message is not displayed:
The hybrid system temperature has
dropped and the vehicle may be driven
normally.
However, if the message appears again fre-
quently, contact your Lexus dealer.

WARNING
■To prevent an accident or injury when
inspecting under the hood of your
vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious
injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under the
hood, do not open the hood until the
steam has subsided. The engine com-
partment may be very hot.

7
When trouble arises
1Stop the hybrid system. Shift the
shift lever to P and set the parking
brake.
2
Remove the mud, snow or sand
from around the front wheels.
3
Place wood, stones or some other
material under the front wheels to
help provide traction.
4
Restart the hybrid system.
5
Shift the shift lever to D or R and
release the parking brake. Then,
while exercising caution, depress
the accelerator pedal.
■When it is difficult to free the vehicle
Press the switch to turn off TRAC.
( P.257)
WARNING
●After the hybrid system has been
turned off, check that the “READY”
indicator is off. When the hybrid sys-
tem is operating, the gasoline engine
may automatically start, or the cooling
fan may suddenly operate even if the
gasoline engine stops. Do not touch or
approach rotating parts such as the
fan, which may lead to fingers or cloth-
ing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muf-
fler) getting caught, resulting in serious
injury.
●Do not loosen the coolant reservoir
cap while the hybrid system and radia-
tor are hot.
High temperature steam or coolant
could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine/power control
unit coolant
Add coolant slowly after the hybrid sys-
tem has cooled down sufficiently. Adding
cool coolant to a hot hybrid system too
quickly can cause damage to the hybrid
system.
■To prevent damage to the cooling sys-
tem
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with
foreign matter (such as sand or dust
etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additive.
If the vehicle becomes stuck
Carry out the following proce-
dures if the tires spin or the vehicle
becomes stuck in mud, dirt or snow:
Recovering procedure

4147-2. Steps to take in an emergency
WARNING
■When attempting to free a stuck vehi-
cle
If you choose to push the vehicle back
and forth to free it, make sure the sur-
rounding area is clear to avoid striking
other vehicles, objects or people. The
vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge
back suddenly as it becomes free. Use
extreme caution.
■When shifting the shift lever
Be careful not to shif t the shift lever with
the accelerator pedal depressed.
This may lead to unexpected rapid accel-
eration of the vehicle that may cause an
accident resulting in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
■To avoid damage to the hybrid trans-
mission and other components
●Avoid spinning the tires and depress-
ing the accelerator pedal more than
necessary.
●If the vehicle remains stuck even after
these procedures are performed, the
vehicle may require towing to be freed.

information.
■DOT quality grades
All passenger vehicle tires must con-
form to Federal Safety Requirements in
addition to these grades. Quality
grades can be found where applicable
on the tire sidewall between tread
shoulder and maximum section width.
For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA
Temperature A
■Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative
rating based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified government test
course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear
one and a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performa nce of tires depends
upon the actual conditions of their use,
however, and may depart significantly from
the norm due to variatio ns in driving habits,
service practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
■Traction AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to
lowest, are AA, A, B and C, and they
represent the tire’s ability to stop on
wet pavement as measured under con-
trolled conditions on specified govern-
ment test surfaces of asphalt and
concrete.
A tire marked C may have poor traction
performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to
this tire is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not include
cornering (turning) traction.
■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the
highest), B, and C, representing the
tire’s resistance to the generation of
heat and its ability to dissipate heat
when tested under controlled condi-
tions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the
material of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature
can lead to sudd en tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of perfor-
mance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Fede ral Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of
performance on the laboratory test wheel
than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades for this
tire are established for a tire that is prop-
erly inflated and not overloaded.
Excessive speed, unde rinflation, or exces-
sive loading, either separately or in combi-
nation, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.

WARNING
■Cautions during customization
As the hybrid system needs to be operat-
ing during customizatio n, ensure that the
vehicle is parked in a place with ade-
quate ventilation. In a closed area such as
a garage, exhaust gases including harm-
ful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect
and enter the vehicle. This may lead to
death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■During customization
To prevent 12-volt battery discharge,
ensure that the hybrid system is operat-
ing while customizing features.
