G12005
For signaling turns, move the lever up or down in the
conventional manner.
The engine switch must be selected in “IG−ON” mode.
The turn signal is self −cancelling after a turn, but after a lane
change, you may have to cancel it by hand. You can also signal
a lane change by moving the turn signal lever partway and
holding it there.
If the green light in the instrument cluster flashes faster than
normal, it indicates that the front or rear turn signal bulb has
burned out. If this indicator light does not come on, the fuse
or the indicator light itself has probably failed.
FOG LIGHT SWITCH
G12006
To turn on the fog lights, twist the band of the headlight
lever to the fog light mark. They will come on only when
the headlights are on low beam.
When the fog lights are on, the indicator lights up in the
instrument cluster.

SWITCHES
62
Be sure to turn the engine switch to “OFF” mode
when you leave your vehicle.
 Never leave anyone (particularly a small child) alone
in your vehicle, especially when the engine switch is
on. Otherwise, he/she could use the power window
switches and get trapped in a window. Unattended
persons (particularly a small child) can be involved in
a serious accident.
 Never try jamming any part of your body to activate
the jam protection function intentionally, as it could
result in a serious injury.
 The jam protection function may not work if
something gets caught just before the window fully
closed.EMERGENCY FLASHER SWITCH
G12015a
To turn on the emergency flashers, push the switch. To
turn them off, push the switch again.
All the turn signal lights will flash. The emergency flashers will

Turn on the emergency flashers to warn other drivers if you
must stop your vehicle where it might be a traffic hazard.
Always pull your vehicle as far off the road as possible.

Tire Pressure Warning
G13025
When the low tire inflation pressure is detected while
driving, the tire pressure warning light and master
warning light come on, and the above message appears.
Adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the warning
message. If the message remains on, have your vehicle
checked by your Lexus dealer.

initialized. After replacing the tires or wheels, adjust all 4 tires
to specified tire inflation pressure and initialize the tire pressure
warning system. To initialize the system, start the engine and
push the tire pressure warning reset switch for longer than 3
seconds with the vehicle stopped. The above message
appears.
G13026
If there is a problem in the tire pressure warning system,
the tire pressure warning light blinks and master warning
light comes on, and the above message appears.
The tire pressure warning light system is not working properly.
In this case, it is probable that a tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter is malfunctioning or the system is experiencing
signal interference. In the case of signal interference, the
warning message will turn off when the interference ends. If
the tire pressure warning light blinks and master warning light
comes on, and the above message appears frequently, have
your vehicle checked by your Lexus dealer.
