Outside temperature display●
In the following situations, the correct
outside temperature may not be dis-
played, or the display may take longer
than normal to change:
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds
(less than 12 mph [20 km/h])
• When the outside temperature has
changed suddenly (at the entrance/exit of
a garage, tunnel, etc.)●
When “--” or “E” is displayed, the system
may be malfunctioning. Take your vehicle
to your Lexus dealer.■

Customization
The gauges and meters can be customized
on of the multi-information display.

Display items
Odometer Displays the total distance the vehicle has
been driven.
Trip meter A/trip meter B Displays the distance the vehicle has been
driven since the meter was last reset. Trip
meters A and B can be used to record and
display different distances independently.
Distance until next engine oil
change Displays the distance the vehicle can be
driven until an oil change is necessary. ■
Changing the display
Each time the “ODO TRIP” switch is
pressed, the displayed item will be
changed. When the trip meter is dis-
played, pressing and holding the switch
will reset the trip meter.WARNING■
The information display at low tem-
peratures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm
up before using the liquid crystal infor-
mation display. At extremely low tem-
peratures, the in formation display
monitor may respond slowly, and display
changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the
driver’s shifting and the new gear number
appearing on the display. This lag could
cause the driver to downshift again,
causing rapid and excessive engine brak-
ing and possibly an accident resulting in
death or injury.
NOTICE
■
To prevent damage to the engine and
its components
●
Do not let the indicator needle of the
tachometer enter the red zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed. ●
The engine may be overheating if the
engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (H). In this case, imme-
diately stop the vehicle in a safe place,
and check the engine after it has
cooled completely. ( → P.443)
