Driving
WA R N I N G
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When braking
●When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.
Braking distance increases when the brakes are wet, and this may cause one side of
the vehicle to brake differently than the other side. Also, the parking brake may not
securely hold the vehicle.
●If the electronically controlled assist function does not operate, do not follow other
vehicles closely and avoid downhill or sharp turns that require braking.
In this case, braking is st ill possible, but the brake pedal should be depressed more
firmly than usual. Also, the braking distan ce will increase. Have your brakes fixed
immediately.
●The brake system consists of 2 or more indi vidual hydraulic systems; if one of the sys-
tems fails, the other(s) wi ll still operate. In this case, the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual and the braking distance will increase. Have your
brakes fixed immediately.
NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake peda ls at the same time during driving, as
this may restrain driving torque.
●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 set the parking brake, and shift the shift position to P. Failure to do so may cause
the vehicle to move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly if the accelerator pedal is
accidentally 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.

■Switching to EV drive mode when the gasoline engine is cold
If the hybrid system is starte
d while the gasoline engine is cold, the gasoline engine will
start automatically after a short period of time in order to warm up. In this case, you will
become unable to switch to EV drive mode.
After the hybrid system has started and the “READY” indicator has illuminated, press the
EV drive mode switch before the gasoline en gine starts to switch to EV drive mode.
■Automatic cancellation of EV drive mode
When driving in EV drive mode, the gasoline engine may automatically restart in the fol-
lowing situations. When EV drive mode is ca nceled, a buzzer will sound and the EV drive
mode indicator will flash and go off.
●The hybrid battery (traction battery) becomes low.
The remaining battery level indicated in the “Energy Monitor” display is low. ( P. 9 4 )
●Vehicle speed becomes high.
●The accelerator pedal is depressed firm ly or the vehicle is on a hill etc.
When it is possible to inform the driver of automatic cancelation in advance, a prior
notice screen will appear on the multi-information display.
■Possible driving distance when driving in EV drive mode
EV drive mode’s possible driving distance ra nges from a few hundred meters to approxi-
mately 0.6 mile (1 km). However, dependin g on vehicle conditions, there are situations
when EV drive mode cannot be used. (The distance that is possible depends on the
hybrid battery [traction battery] level and driving conditions.)
■Fuel economy
Your Lexus is designed to achieve the best possible fuel economy during normal driving
(using the gasoline engine an d electric motor [traction motor]). Driving in EV drive
mode more than necessary may lower fuel economy.
WA R N I N G
■Caution while driving
When driving in EV drive mode, pay special attention to the area around the vehicle.
Because there is no engine noise, pedestrians, people riding bicycles or other people
and vehicles in the area may not be aware of the vehicle starting off or approaching
them, so take extra care while driving.

■When shifting the shift position to P
Fully stop the vehicle and set the
parking brake, and then press the P
position switch.
When the shift position is changed to
P, the switch indicator comes on.
Check that the P position is illumi-
nated on the shift position indicator.
■Shifting the shift position from P to other positions
●While depressing the brake pedal firmly, operate the shift lever. If the shift
lever is operated without depressing the brake pedal, the buzzer will sound
and the shifting operation will be disabled.
●When selecting the shift position, make sure that the shift position has been
changed to the desired position by checking the shift position indicator
provided on the instrument cluster.
●The shift position cannot be changed from P to B directly.

■For the shift positions
●When the power switch is off, the shift position cannot be changed.
●When the power switch is in ON mode (the hybrid system is not operating), the shift
position can only be changed to N. The shift position will be changed to N even if the
shift lever is shifted to D or R and held in that position.
●When the “READY” indicator is on, the shift position can be changed from P to D, N or
R.
●When the “READY” indicator is flashing, the shift position cannot be changed from P to
another position even if the shift lever is operated. Wait until the “READY” indicator
changes from a flashing to a solid light, and then operate the shift lever again.
●The shift position can only be changed to B directly from D.
In addition, if an attempt is made to change the shift position by moving the shift lever or
by pressing the P position switch in any of the following situations, the buzzer will sound
and the shifting operation will be disabled or the shift position will automatically change
to N. When this happens, select an appropriate shift position.
●Situations where the shifting operation will be disabled:
• When an attempt is made to change the sh ift position from P to another position by
moving the shift lever without depressing the brake pedal.
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from P or N to B by moving
the shift lever.
●Situations where the shift position will automatically change to N:
• When the P position switch is pressed while the vehicle is running.
*1
• When an attempt is made to select the R position by moving the shift lever when the vehicle is moving forward.
*2
• When an attempt is made to select the D position by moving the shift lever when thevehicle is moving in reverse.
*3
• When an attempt is made to change the shift position from R to B by moving the shiftlever.
*1: Shift position may be changed to P when driving at extremely low speeds.
*2: Shift position may be changed to R when driving at low speeds.
*3: Shift position may be changed to D when driving at low speeds.
■Reverse warning buzzer
When shifting into R, a buzzer will sound to info rm the driver that the shift position is in R.

CT200h_OM_OM76215U_(U)4-2. Driving procedures
■About engine braking
When shift position B is selected, releasing the accelerator
pedal will apply engine brak-
ing.
• When the vehicle is driven at high speeds, compared to ordinary gasoline-fueled vehi-
cles, the engine braking deceleration is felt less than that of other vehicles.
• The vehicle can be accelerated even when shift position B is selected.
If the vehicle is driven continuously in the B position, fuel efficiency will become low. Usu-
ally, select the D position.
■When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control activated
Even if switching the driving mo de to sport mode with the intent of enabling engine brak-
ing, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or dynamic radar cruise con-
trol will not be canceled.
■Automatically P position selection function
When the shift position is in a position other than P, pressing the power switch with the
vehicle stopped completely will cause the shift position to change to P automatically, and
then the power switch will turn off.
■If the shift position cannot be shifted from P
There is a possibility that the 12-volt battery is discharged. Check the 12-volt battery in
this situation. ( P. 5 6 8 )
■After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery
P. 4 9 3
■Customization
Settings (e.g. Reverse warning buzzer) can be changed.
(Customizable features: P. 5 9 8 )
WA R N I N G
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift the shift position suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine braking may cause th e vehicle to spin or skid, resulting in an
accident.
■For the shift lever
Do not remove the shift lever knob or use anything but a genuine Lexus shift lever
knob. Also, do not hang anything on the shift lever.
Doing so could prevent the shift lever from returning to position, causing unexpected
accidents to occur when the vehicle is in motion.
■P position switch
Do not press the P position switch while the vehicle is moving.
If the P position switch is pressed when driving at very low speeds (for example, directly
before stopping the vehicle), the vehicle may stop suddenly when the shift position
switches to P, which could lead to an accident.

■Headlight control sensor
■Automatic light off system
●When the headlights come on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 seconds after a
door is opened and closed if the power
switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or
turned off. (The lights turn off immediately if on the key is pressed after all the doors
are locked.)
●When only the tail lights come on: The tail lights turn off automatically if the power
switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned off and the driver’s door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the power switch to ON mode, or turn the light switch off
once and then back to or .
■Automatic headlight leveling system (if equipped)
The level of the headlights is automatically ad justed according to the number of passen-
gers and the loading condition of the vehicle to ensure that the headlights do not inter-
fere with other road users.
■12-volt battery-saving function
In order to prevent the vehicle 12-volt battery from discharging, if the headlights and/or
tail lights are on when the power switch is turned off the 12-volt battery saving function
will operate and automatically turn off all the lights after approximately 20 minutes.
When the power switch is turned to ON mode, the 12-volt battery-saving function will be
disabled.
When any of the following are performed, the 12-volt battery-saving function is canceled
once and then reactivated. All the lights w ill turn off automatically 20 minutes after the
12-volt battery-saving function has been reactivated:
●When the headlight switch is operated
●When a door is opened or closed
■Customization
Settings (e.g. light sensor se nsitivity) can be changed.
(Customizable features: P. 5 9 8 )
The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or anything that
blocks the sensor is affixed to the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor detecting
the level of ambient light and may cause the
automatic headlight system to malfunction.
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is off.
