remove the head restraint. Other-
wise, put the head restraint in the
upper most position.
WARNING
■When using a child restraint system
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Never install a re ar-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat even if the “AIR BAG OFF” indi-
cator light is illuminated. In the event of
an accident, the force of the rapid infla-
tion of the front passenger airbag can
cause death or serious injury to the
child if the rear-facing child restraint
system is installed on the front passen-
ger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passen-
ger seat only when it is unavoidable. A
child restraint system that requires a
top tether strap should not be used in
the front passenger seat since there is
no top tether strap anchor for the front
passenger seat.
●A forward-facing child restraint system
may be installed on the front passen-
ger seat only when it is unavoidable.
When installing a forward-facing child
restraint system on the front passenger
seat, adjust the seatback angle to the
most upright position, move the seat
fully rearward, and move the seat
height to the upper most position, even
if the “AIR BAG OFF” indicator light is
illuminated.
If the head restraint interferes with your
child restraint system, and the head
restraint can be re moved, remove the
head restraint. Othe rwise, put the head
restraint in the up per most position.
●Do not allow the child to lean his/her
head or any part of his/her body
against the door or th e area of the seat,
front or rear pillars, or roof side rails
from which the SRS side airbags or
SRS curtain shield ai rbags deploy even
if the child is seated in the child
restraint system. It is dangerous if the
SRS side and curtai n shield airbags
inflate, and the impact could cause
death or serious injury to the child.

mean that these systems are not available
to help protect you in an accident, which
could result in death or serious injury.
Have the vehicle inspected by your
Lexus dealer immediately if this occurs.

●When “_ _”or “E” is displayed, the system
may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to your Lexus dealer.
■Pop-up display
●In some situations, such as when a switch
operation is performe d, a pop-up display
will be temporarily displayed on the
multi-information display or the odome-
ter/trip meter screen (F SPORT models).
●Some pop-up displays can be set on/off.
■Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the
display. This phenomen on is characteristic
of liquid crystal displays, and there is no
problem continuing to use the display.
■Customization
The meter display can be customized on
the multi-information display. ( P.388)
■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 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.
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 maxi mum 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.357)
