For safety and security
Air intake vents
Air discharge vents When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor, the
emergency shut off system blocks the
high voltage current and stops the fuel
pump to minimize the risk of electrocu-
tion and fuel leakage. If the emergency
shut off system activates, your vehicle
will not restart. To restart the hybrid
system, contact your Lexus dealer.
A message is automatically displayed
when a malfunction occurs in the
hybrid system or an improper opera-
tion is attempted.
If a warning message is shown on the
multi-information display, read the
message and follow the instructions.
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction battery) air
intake and discharge vents
●Do not place objects
that will block the
air intake vents. The hybrid battery
(traction battery) may have a reduc-
tion in hybrid battery (traction battery)
output as well as be damaged.
●Clean the air intake and discharge
vents regularly to prevent the hybrid
battery (traction battery) from over-
heating.
●Do not get water or foreign materials
in either the air intake and discharge
vents as this may cause a short circuit
and damage the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery).

Maintenance and care
It may take several minutes before the
warning message disappears.
■Cleaning the air intake vents
●Dust on the air intake vents may inter-
feres cooling of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) and results in poor fuel
consumption. Clean the air intake vents
periodically.
●If continuing to drive the vehicle with
“Maintenance required for Traction bat-
tery cooling parts See owner’s manual”
shown on the multi-information display,
the hybrid battery (traction battery) input
and output may be restricted, leading to a
reduction in hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) output and a malfunction. It may
cause poor fuel consumption or a mal-
function. If the warning message is shown,
contact your Lexus dealer or clean the air
intake vents immediately.
●If the warning message on the multi-infor-
mation display does not disappear after
cleaning the air intake vents, have the
vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
●Timing of cleaning air intake vents differs
depending on the use environment of the
vehicle.
 Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner.
 Wipe off any excess dirt and dust
with a soft cloth dampened with
diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of approxi-
mately 5% neutral wool detergent.
Wring out any excess water from
the cloth and thoroughly wipe off all
remaining traces of detergent.
 Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture. Allow the leather to dry in
a shaded and ventilated area.
■Caring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleani ng the interior of
the vehicle at least twice a year to maintain
the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
 Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner.
 Wipe it off with a soft cloth damp-
ened with neutral detergent diluted
NOTICE
■When cleaning the air intake vents
When cleaning the air intake vent, make
sure to only use a vacuum to suck out
dust and clogs. If a compressed air blow
gun, etc. is used to blow out dust and
clogs, the dust or clogs may be pushed
into the air intake ve nt, which may affect
the performance of the hybrid battery
(traction battery) and cause a malfunc-
tion.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
Observe the following precautions. Fail-
ure to do so may cause damage to the
vehicle.
●Do not use water or other liquid to
clean the air intake vents
●Do not install anything but the filters
exclusive for this vehicle to the air
intake vents or use the vehicle without
installing the filters.

also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may burn
easily, such as paper and rags, in the
engine compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose
an open flame to fuel. Fuel fumes are
flammable.
ItemsParts and tools■When working near the electric cool-
ing fans or radiator grille

electric cooling fans may automatically
start to run if the air conditioning is on
and/or the coolant temperature is high.
(  P.332)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or
falling material, fluid spray, etc. from get-
ting in your eyes.
NOTICE

■Oil capacity (Drain and refill [Reference*])
*: The engine oil capacity is a reference quantity to be used when changing the engine oil. Warm up the engine and turn off the hybrid system, wait more than 5 minutes, and check
the oil level on the dipstick.
■Engine oil selection
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in
your Lexus vehicle. Use Lexus
approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”
or equivalent to satisfy the following
grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade
engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good starting
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.
