■Starting the hybrid system when the 12 volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by push-starting.
■To prevent 12 volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the hybrid system is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic, etc.
■When the 12 volt battery is removed or discharged
The hybrid system may not start. (
P. 4 7 1 )
Also, the intuitive parking assist must be initialized. (
P. 555)
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine
speed slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5
minutes to recharge the 12 volt battery of your vehicle.
Open and close any of the doors with the “POWER” switch is
OFF.
Maintain the engine speed on the second vehicle and turn the
“POWER” switch to the ON mode, then start the vehicle’s
hybrid system.
Make sure the “READY” light comes on. If the light does not
come on, contact your Lexus dealer.
Once the vehicle’s hybrid system has started, remove the
jumper cables in the exact reverse order in which they were
connected.
Once the hybrid system starts, have the vehicle checked at your Lexus
