CAUTION
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of 
alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol 
and certain drugs delay reaction time, im pair judgment and reduce coordination, 
which could lead to an accident that will hurt or kill you, your occupants or others.
Defensive driving: Always drive defensively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers 
or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full at tention to driving. Anything that distracts 
the driver, such as adjusting controls, ta lking on a cellular phone or reading can 
result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or 
others.
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle.
When left unattended, children may be able  to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle 
into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing 
with the cigarette lighter, the windows, the  moon roof, or other features of the vehi-
cle. In addition, heat build-up or extremel y cold temperatures inside the vehicle can 
be fatal to children.
■Dispose of the hybrid battery (traction battery)
If your vehicle is disposed of without the  hybrid battery having been removed, there 
is a danger of serious electric shock if high voltage parts, cables and their connec-
tors are touched. In the event of that your vehicle must be disposed of, the hybrid 
battery must be disposed of your Lexus dealer or a qualified service shop. If the 
hybrid battery is not disposed of properly , they may cause electric shock that can 
result in death or serious injury.
