3967-2. Steps to take in an emergency
The warning lights and warning buzzers operate as follows depending on the con-
tent of the message. If a message indicates the need for inspection by a dealer, have
the vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately.
*: A buzzer sounds the first time a message is shown on the multi-information display.
■Warning messages
The warning messages explained below
may differ from the actual messages
according to operation conditions and vehi-
cle specifications.
■Warning buzzer
In some cases, the bu zzer may not be heard
due to being in a noisy location or audio
sound.
■If “Engine Oil Level Low Add or
Replace” is displayed
The engine oil level is low. Check the level
of the engine oil, and add if necessary.
This message may appear if the vehicle is
stopped on a slope. Move the vehicle to a
level surface and check to see if the mes-
sage disappears.
■If “Hybrid System Stopped Steering
Power Low” is displayed
This message is displayed if the hybrid sys-
tem is stopped while driving.
When steering wheel operations are
heavier than usual, gr ip the steering wheel
firmly and operate it using more force than
usual.
■If “Hybrid system overheated Output
power reduced” is displayed
This message may be displayed when driv-
ing under severe operat ing conditions. (For
example, when driving up a long steep hill.)
Handling method: P.410
■If “Traction Battery Needs to be Pro-
tected Refrain From the Use of N Posi-
tion” is displayed
This message may be displayed when the
shift lever is in N.

4087-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■Starting the hybrid system when the 12-
volt battery is discharged
The hybrid system cannot be started by
push-starting.
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
●Turn off the headlight s, the air condition-
ing system, the audio system, etc. while
the hybrid system is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical com-
ponents when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such
as in heavy traffic.
■Charging the 12-volt battery
The electricity stored in the 12-volt battery
will discharge gradua lly even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural dis-
charge and the draining effects of certain
electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for
a long time, the 12-volt battery may dis-
charge, and the hybrid system may be
unable to start. (The 12-volt battery
recharges automatically while the hybrid
system is operating.)
■When the 12-volt battery is removed or
discharged
●Information stored in the ECU is cleared.
When the 12-volt battery is depleted,
have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus
dealer.
●In some cases, it may not be possible to
unlock the doors using the smart access
system with push-button start when the
12-volt battery is discharged. Use the
wireless remote control or the mechani-
cal key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The hybrid system may not start on the
first attempt after the 12-volt battery has
recharged but will start normally after the
second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The power switch mode is memorized by
the vehicle. When the 12-volt battery is
reconnected, the system will return to the
mode it was in before the 12-volt battery
was discharged. Before disconnecting
the 12-volt battery, turn the power switch
off.
If you are unsure what mode the power
switch was in before the 12-volt battery discharged, be especially careful when
reconnecting the 12-volt battery.
●The power back door must be initialized.
(
P.119)
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt
battery (European Regulations).
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN1), 20 hour
rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent
(45Ah) or greater, and performance rat-
ing (CCA) is equivalent (286A) or
greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery can- not be properly secured.
• If an improper 12-volt battery is used, bat-
tery performance may decrease and the
hybrid system may not be able to restart.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if
the time period where the vehicle is not
used is a short time, the 12-volt battery
may discharge and hybrid system may
not be able to start.
●Use a 12-volt battery with a handle. If a
12-volt battery without a handle is used,
removal is more difficult.
●After exchanging, firmly attach the fol-
lowing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-
volt battery.
• Confirm that the elbow is securely attached to the exhaust hose and exhaust
hole.
• Confirm that the exhaust hole plug is securely attached to the exhaust hole that
the elbow is not attached to.
• Use the elbow/exhaust hole plug included with the 12-volt battery
exchanged or the on e installed on the
battery prior to the exchange. (Depend-
ing on the 12-volt battery to be
exchanged, the exhaust hole may be
plugged.)
