information about the specific vehicle or
vehicle owner
The SRS airbag and seat belt
pretensioner devices in your Lexus
contain explosive chemicals. If the
vehicle is scrapped with the airbags
and seat belt pretensioners left as they
are, this may cause an accident such as
fire. Be sure to have the systems of the
SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified
service shop or by your Lexus dealer
before you scrap your vehicle.
Special handling may apply, See
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/per
chlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may
contain perchlorate. These compo-
nents may include the airbags, seat belt
pretensioners, wireless remote control
batteries, and the batteries in the tire
pressure warning valve and transmit-
ters.
Scrapping of your Lexus
Perchlorate Material
WARNING
■General precautions while driving
Driving under the infl uence: Never drive
your vehicle when un der 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 panoramic moon roof,
or other features of the vehicle. In addi-
tion, heat build-up or extremely cold
temperatures inside the vehicle can be
fatal to children.

Vehicle status information and indicators
*4: This distance is computed based on your average fuel consumption. As a
result, the actual distance that can be
driven may differ from that displayed.
■Energy monitor
 P.99
■AWD Control
Displays the driving force applied to
each wheel using segments.
The greater the number of segments
displayed, the greater the driving force
applied.
■G-force (if equipped)
Displays lateral G-forces on the vehi-
cle. Also displays, around the periph-
ery of the G-force display, the left and
right steering amount, accelerator
pedal input, and brake fluid pressure.
Acceleration G-force on the vehi-
cle
Current G-force value (analyzed
value of front/rear and left/right
G-forces)
Record of the maximum G-forces
Accelerator pedal input
Brake fluid pressure
Steering amount
This display is intended for use as a guide- line. Depending on fact
ors such as the road
surface condition, temperature and vehicle
speed, the display may not show the actual
condition of the vehicle.
 Resetting the record of maximum
G-forces
Press and hold of the meter control
switch to reset the record.
Peak hold function
If lateral G-forces of 0.5 G or greater are
generated, the G-forc e value display will
turn amber and be held for 2 seconds.
■Tire pressure
 P.376
■Units (if equipped)
The units of measure used can be
changed while driving.
Unlike the units setting performed on the
settings display, th e units setting per-
formed on the drive information display
can be changed while driving.
■Blank (No items)
Displays no drive information contents.
■G-force display (if equipped)
●The G-force values may not be zero even
when the vehicle is parked, such as when
it is parked on an incline.
●Depending on the vehicle usage condi-
tions, the brake fluid pressure display may
not reach its maximum reading even
though the brake pedal is fully depressed.
●If a 12-volt battery terminal is discon-
nected and reconnect ed, the steering
amount display may be disabled tempo-
rarily. After driving th e vehicle for a while,
the display will be enabled.
