NOTICE
To prevent battery discharge
■
Do not leave the engine switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode for long
●
periods of time without the engine running.
If "POWER ON" is displayed on the multi-information display, the engine switch is
●
not off. Exit the vehicle after turning the engine switch off.
Do not stop the engine when the shift lever is in a position other than P. If the engine is
●
stopped in another shift lever position, the engine switch will not be turned off but
instead be turned to ACCESSORY mode. If the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY
mode, battery discharge may occur.
When starting the engine
■
Do not race a cold engine.
●
If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehicle checked
●
by your Lexus dealer immediately.
Symptoms indicating a malfunction with the engine switch
■
If the engine switch seems to be operating somewhat differently than usual, such as the
switch sticking slightly, there may be a malfunction. Contact your Lexus dealer immedi-
ately.
