SWITCHES

The wiper lever must be in the “INT” position.
The time interval between sw
eeps is shortened when the
vehicle speed increases. When the vehicle speed reaches
more than about 20 km/h (12 mph) with the interval adjuster
twisted down to the lowest position, the time interval becomes
the shortest 1.5 seconds.
If you stop the vehicle with the wiper switch in the “LO” position,
the wiper speed automatically changes from low speed to
intermittent operation speed.* This function does not work with
the interval adjuster twisted down to the lowest position.
NOTE:
* This feature can be deactivated.
Ask your Lexus dealer for details.
For mist wiper operations (a single wipe), pull the lever
toward you and release it.
To make the washer squirt, push the button on the end of
the lever.
If the wiper lever is in the “OFF” position, the wipers will
automatically make 3 wipes and then a single wipe later to
sweep the windshield completely.* The interval between the
3 wipes and the last wipe will depend on the vehicle speed.
The last sweep does not happen if the vehicle speed exceeds
about 170 km/h (106 mph). NOTE:
* The last single wipe can be deactivated.
Ask your Lexus dealer for details. The warning message “Low Washer Fluid” is displayed in the
multi−
information display when the fluid level in the tank
becomes very low. For information on adding washer fluid, see
“Adding washer fluid” on page 503.
When the headlights are on and the washers are activated by
pushing the windshield washer switch, the headlight cleaner
operates once automatically.
In cold weather, warm the windshield with the defroster before
using the washer. This will help prevent icing, which could
block your vision.
The rear window and outside rear view mirror defogger
automatically turns on when you operate the wipers.
NOTICE
Do not operate the wipers if the windshield is dry. It may
scratch the glass.

GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS
80
FUEL GAUGE
13L062d
Low fuel level warning light
The gauge indicates the approximate quantity of fuel
remaining in the tank when the ignition switch is on.
It is a good idea to keep the tank over 1/4 full.
If the fuel level approaches “E” or the low fuel level warning light\
comes on, fill the fuel tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the movement of fuel in the tank,
the fuel gauge needle may fluctuate or the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than usual.
If the fuel tank is completely empty, the malfunction indicator
lamp comes on. Fill the fuel tank immediately.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving several times. If the
indicator lamp does not go off, contact your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible. See the inner back cover for fuel capacity and recommended
fuel selection.
ENGINE COOLANT
TEMPERATURE GAUGE
13L151
 Normal range
The gauge indicates the engine coolant temperature when
the ignition switch is on. The engine operating
temperature will vary with changes in weather and engine
load.
If the needle points to the red zone or higher, stop your vehicle
and allow the engine to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe operating conditions,
such as:
 Driving up a long hill on a hot day.
 Reducing speed or stopping after high speed driving.
