WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
If a brake pad wear warning message is displayed (GS F)
■
Have the brake pads checked and replaced by your Lexus dealer as soon as possible.
Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.
Moderate levels of the brake pad and disc wear allow enhanced braking power. As a
result, the discs may wear more quickly than conventional brake discs. Therefore, when
replacing the brake pads, Lexus recommends that you also have the thickness of the
discs measured.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads and/or those
of the brake discs are exceeded.
When the vehicle is stopped
■
Do not race the engine.
●
If the vehicle is any gear other than P or N, the vehicle may accelerate suddenly and
unexpectedly, causing an accident.
In order to prevent accidents due to the vehicle rolling away, always keep depressing
●
the brake pedal while the engine is running, and apply the parking brake as neces-
sary.
If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent accidents caused by the
●
vehicle rolling forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal and securely
apply the parking brake as needed.
Avoid revving or racing the engine.
●
Running the engine at high speed while the vehicle is stopped may cause the exhaust
system to overheat, which could result in a fire if combustible material is nearby.
