CAUTION
■If a safety system warning light does not come on
Should a safety system light such as ABS and the SRS airbag warning lights not
come on when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position, this could mean that
these systems are not available to help protect you in an accident, which could
result in death or serious injury. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer
immediately if this occurs.
■ Warning lights
Warning lights inform the driver of malfunctions in the indicated
vehicle’s systems. ( P. 3 3 7 )
*: These lights turn on when the ignition key is turned to the “ON” position
to indicate that a system check is being performed. They will turn off
after the engine is started, or after a few seconds. There may be a mal-
function in a system if the lights do not come on, or if the lights do not
turn off. Have the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
