To reduce the chance of injury in case of an accident or
sudden stop while driving, always completely close the
ashtray after use.
POWER OUTLET
The power outlet is designed for power supply for car
accessories.
The ignition key must be in the “ACC” or “ON” position for t\
he
power outlet to be used.
NOTICE

To prevent the fuse from being blown, do not use the
electricity over the total vehicle capacity of
12V/120W.
 To prevent the battery from being discharged, do not
use the power outlet longer than necessary when the
engine is not running.

EXTERIOR EQUIPMENT
ciiAfter the door is unlocked, the moonroof begins to open. To
stop in the middle, return the key.
The moonroof also can be opened using the wireless remote
control. For details, see page xx.
Jam protection function
If something gets caught into the roof opening during closing
operation, the moonroof stops and opens.
If the moonroof receives a strong impact, this function may
work even if nothing is caught.
If the battery is disconnected or run down
The moonroof may not operate automatically and the jam
protection function will not function correctly after you
reconnect, replace or recharge the battery. In any of these
cases, you should normalize the moonroof.
To normalize the moonroof, push and hold the switch on the
“TILT UP” side until the moonroof tilts all the way up and then
tilts down a little automatically.
Make sure that
the moonroof opens and closes automatically.
If the moonroof cannot be operated properly, have it checked
by your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
To avoid serious personal injury, you must do the
following.
 While the vehicle is moving, always keep the heads,
hands and other parts of the bodies of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Otherwise, they could
be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or
if the vehicle is involved in an accident.
 Before you close the moonroof, always make sure
there is nobody around the moonroof. You must also
make sure nobody places his or her head, hands and
other parts of the body in the roof opening. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get caught in the
closing roof, it could result in death or serious injury.
When anyone closes the moonroof, first make sure it
is safe to do so.
 Be sure to remove the ignition key when you leave
your vehicle.
 Never leave anyone (particularly a small child) alone
in your vehicle, especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could use the moonroof
switch and get trapped in the roof opening.
Unattended person (particularly a small child) can be
involved in a serious accident.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEM
clxviiiBy repeating these two steps and pressing the remaining
button,
the driving position for another driver can be recorded.
To set a new memorized position, select the desired position
and perform step 2. The previous memory will be erased and
the new position will be set.
To make only slight changes to an already memorized position,
the easiest way is to first activate the memorized position, then
make the desired changes and perform step 2 above.
Recalling the memorized position
When you push button “1” or “2”, the driving position will
be automatically adjusted to the position recorded for that
button. Conditions for memorized position activation

Ignition key “ON” and selector lever in “P” position
 Ignition switch off and within 30 seconds of opening driver’s
door
If any driving position memory switch is pushed while one of the
memorized driving position profiles is being activated, the
operation will stop.
To activate the system, push the desired button (“1” or “2”)\
again.
The driving position memory control system cannot be
operated while the vehicle is moving.
If the vehicle’s battery is disconnected, the computer’s
memory will be erased and the memorized positions will have
to be set again.
CAUTION
 Do not start the vehicle while the adjustments are
being made.
 Take care not to select the wrong button, or the seat
could strike the rear passenger or hit your body
against the steering wheel. If this happens, you can
stop the movement by pressing another driving
position memory switch.

STARTING AND DRIVING
cclx
IGNITION SWITCH
“START” — Starter motor on. The key will return to the
“ON” position when released.
For starting tips, see page cclxii.
“ON” — Engine on and all accessories on.
This is the normal driving position.
NOTICE
Do not leave the key in the “ON” position if the engine
is not running. The battery will discharge and the
electronic ignition system could be damaged.
“ACC” — Accessories such as the radio operate, but the
engine is off.If you leave the key in the “ACC” or “LOCK” position and open
the driver’s door, a buzzer will remind you to remove the key.
“LOCK” —
Engine is off and the steering wheel is locked.
The ignition key can be removed only at this position.
To turn the ignition switch from “ACC” to the “LOCK” position,\
you must put the transmission selector lever in the “P” position.
Once you remove the key, the engine immobilizer system is
automatically set. See “Engine immobilizer system” on page
xv.
When starting the engine, the key may seem stuck at the
“LOCK” position. To free it, first be sure the key is pushed all
the way in, and then rock the steering wheel slightly while
turning the key gently.
If, in an emergency, you must turn the engine off while the
vehicle is moving, turn the key only to “ACC”.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
ccciii
IF YOUR ENGINE STALLS WHILEDRIVING
If your engine stalls while driving...
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping a straight line. Move
cautiously off the road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Turn the ignition key to “ACC” or “LOCK”, and try starting the
engine again.
If the engine will not start, see “If your vehicle will not start”\
.
CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the power assist for the
brakes and steering will not work, so steering and
braking will be much harder than usual.
IF YOUR VEHICLE WILL NOT START
(a) Simple checks
Before making these checks, make sure you have followed the
correct starting procedure instructions in “How to start the
engine” on page cclxii and that you have sufficient fuel. Since
your vehicle is equipped with the engine immobilizer system,
also check whether the other keys will start the engine. If they
work, your key may be broken. Have the key checked at your
Lexus dealer. If none of your keys work, there may be a
malfunction in the immobilizer system. Call your Lexus dealer.
See “Keys” on page xi.
If the engine is not turning over or is turning over too
slowly —
1. Check that the battery terminals are tight and clean.
2. If the battery terminals are O.K., switch on the interior light.
3. If the light is out, dim or goes out when the starter is cranked,
the battery is discharged. You may try jump starting. See “(c)
Jump starting” for further instruction.
If the light is O.K., but the engine still will not start, it needs
adjustment or repair. Call a Lexus dealer, Roadside
Assistance or Customer Service Assistance. (See
“Foreword”.)
