Please note that this manual applies to 
all models and explains all equipment, 
including options. Therefore, you may 
find some explanations for equipment 
not installed on your vehicle.
All specifications provided in this man- ual are current at the time of printing. 
However, because of the Lexus policy 
of continual product improvement, we 
reserve the right to make changes at 
any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehi-
cle shown in the illustrations may differ 
from your vehicle in terms of color and 
equipment.
Approximately five hours after the 
engine is turned off, you may hear 
sound coming from under the vehicle 
for several minutes. This is the sound of 
a fuel evaporation leakage check and, 
it does not indicate a malfunction.
A wide variety of non-genuine spare 
parts and accessories for Lexus vehi-
cles are currently available in the mar-
ket. You should know that Toyota does 
not warrant these products and is not 
responsible for their performance, 
repair, or replacement, or for any dam-
age they may cause to, or adverse 
effect they may have on, your Lexus 
vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified 
with non-genuine Lexus products. 
Modification with non-genuine Lexus 
products could affect its performance, 
safety or durability, and may even vio-

For your information
WARNING
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive 
your vehicle when under the influence of 
alcohol or drugs that  have impaired your 
ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol 
and certain drugs delay reaction time, 
impair judgment and reduce coordina-
tion, which could lead to an accident that 
could result in death or serious injury.
Defensive driving:  Always drive defen-
sively. Anticipate mistakes that other 
drivers or pedestrians might make and 
be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full 
attention to driving. Anything that dis-
tracts the driver, such as adjusting con-
trols, talking on a cellular phone or 
reading can result in a collision with 
resulting death or serious injury to you, 
your occupants or others.
■General precaution regarding chil-
dren’s safety
Never leave children  unattended in the 
vehicle, and never allow children to have 
or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle 
or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is 
also a danger that children may injure 
themselves by playing with the windows, 
the moon roof, or other features of the 
vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or 
extremely cold temperatures inside the 
vehicle can be fatal to children.
