Drum-in-disc type parking brake system
■
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type parking brake system. This type of brake system
needs bedding-down of the brake shoes periodically or whenever the parking brake
shoes and/or drum are replaced. Have your Lexus dealer perform the bedding
down operation.
Operating your vehicle in a foreign country

Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability of the
correct fuel. (→P. 567)
Regarding engine speed when idling
■
When idling with the shift lever in P or N for an extensive period of time, the engine
speed may rise to approximately 1000 rpm (r/min). This is not a malfunction. After a
set period of time, the engine will return to its previous engine speed.
