■Elapsed time (after reset*2/after start)*1
Displays the elapsed time since the function was reset and the engine was
started, respectively
■Distance (driving range/after start)*1
Displays the estimated maximum distance that can be driven with the quantity
of fuel remaining and the distance driven after the engine was started respec-
tively.
• This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a result,
the actual distance that can be driven may differ from that displayed.
• When only a small amount of fuel is added to the tank, the display may not be
updated.
When refueling, turn the engine switch off. If the vehicle is refueled without turning
the engine switch off, the display may not be updated.
■Eco Driving Indicator Zone Display
 P. 9 4
■Boost Meter/Oil Temperature Gauge/Oil Pressure Gauge (if equipped)
Boost Meter:
Displays the boost pressure. The display changes colors when the set pres-
sure is exceeded.
Oil Temperature Gauge:
Displays the temperature of the engine oil. The display flashes when the
engine oil exceeds 284°F (140°C). ( P. 5 5 7 )
Oil Pressure Gauge:
Displays the oil pressure for the engine interior. A buzzer sounds and warning
message is displayed when the oil pressure gets low. ( P. 5 5 7 )
Depending on the road conditions, temperature, vehicle speed, etc., the actual
vehicle condition on the display screen may differ.
Use the display screen as a reference.
■G monitor (if equipped)
Displays the acceleration forces of the fr ont, back, left and right of the vehicle.
Also displays the turning angle of th e steering wheel, brake oil pressure,
accelerator opening.
• The actual vehicle conditions may differ from those on the display screen, depend- ing on the road conditions, outside temperature, vehicle speed, etc.
Use the display screen as a reference.
• If a battery terminal is disconnected and reconnected, the steering amount display
may be disabled temporarily. After drivin g the vehicle for a while, the display will
be enabled.
■Tire inflation pressure
Displays inflation pressure of each tire.
The inflation pressure of the spare tire will not be displayed.

NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time during driving, the
engine output may be restrained.
●Do not use the accelerator pedal or depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the
same time to hold the vehicle on a hill.
■When parking the vehicle
Always shift the shift lever to P, set the parking brake. Failure to do so may cause the
vehicle to move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly if the accelerator pedal is acci-
dentally depressed.
■Avoiding damage to vehicle parts
●Do not turn the steering wheel fully in either direction and hold it there for an
extended period of time.
Doing so may damage the power steering motor.
●When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to avoid damaging
the wheels, underside of the vehicle, etc.
●Make sure to idle the engine immediately after high speed driving or hill climbing, if
the engine is to be stopped. Stop the en gine only after the turbocharger has cooled
down. ( P. 1 6 8 )
Failure to do so may cause damage to the turbocharger.
■If you get a flat tire while driving
A flat or damaged tire may cause the follo wing situations. Hold the steering wheel
firmly and gradually depress the brak e pedal to slow down the vehicle.
●It may be difficult to control your vehicle.
●The vehicle will make abnormal sounds or vibrations.
●The vehicle will lean abnormally.

■When encountering flooded roads
Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain, etc. Doing so may cause the
following serious damage to the vehicle:
●Engine stalling
●Short in electrical components
●Engine damage caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, be sure to have
your Lexus dealer check the following:
●Brake function
●Changes in quantity and quality of oil and fl uid used for the engine, transmission, tran-
saxle, transfer (AWD models), differential, etc.
●Lubricant condition for the propeller shaft (AWD models), bearings and suspension
joints (where possible), and the fu nction of all joints, bearings, etc.

■Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct Injection Turbo Gasoline
Engines” is used in your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus approved “Toyota Genuine
Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct In jection Turbo Gasoline Engines” or
equivalent to satisfy the following grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE 0W-20 for Direct Injection Turbo
Gasoline Engines” or ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good start-
ing in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE
5W-20 oil may be used. However, it
must be replaced with SAE 0W-20
at the next oil change.
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscos ity characteristic of the oil when the
oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or
under extreme load conditions.
How to read oil container label:
The International Lubricant Specifi-
cation Advisory Committee
(ILSAC) Certification Mark is added
to some oil containers to help you
select the oil you should use.
