■
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.
■
Pop-up display
Distance until the next engine oil
change will displayed when a warning
message indicating that oil mainte-
nance should be performed soon or is
required is displayed.
The brightness of the instrument panel
lights can be adjusted.
1 Darker
2 Brighter ■
Brightness of the meters (day mode and
night mode)
The brightness of the meters changes
between day mode and night mode.
●
Day mode: When the tail lights are off or WARNING
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.453)

Engine speed
On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is pre-
cisely controlled in order to help improve
fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emis-
sions etc.
There are times when the engine speed that
is displayed may differ even when vehicle
operation and driving conditions are the
same. ■
Hybrid System Indicator is displayed
when
The Hybrid System Indicator is displayed in
the following situations: ●
The shift position is in D or M.●
The driving mode is other than sport
mode.■
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.

Display items
Odometer Displays the total distance the vehicle has

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 information 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.
