NOTICE
Do not remove or repair the parts or
wiring of the Pop Up Hood, as doing
so may cause accidental operation or
prevent the system from operating
properly. If repair or replacement is
necessary, contact your Lexus dealer.
Do not remove such components as
the front bumper, hood or suspension,
or replace them with non-genuine

Do not close the hood with force or
apply load to the lifters, as doing so
may damage the lifters and prevent the
system from operating properly.
Do not modify the suspension, as
changes made to the vehicle height

Exhaust gas precautions

Harmful substance to the human
body is included in exhaust gases if
inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases
enter the vehicle and may lead to an
accident caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.

Important points while driving

Keep the trunk lid closed.
If you smell exhaust gases in the vehi-
cle even when the trunk lid is closed,
open the windows and have the vehi-
cle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.

When parking

If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated
area or a closed area, such as a
garage, stop the engine <hybrid sys-
tem>.
Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine running <hybrid system operat-
ing> for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided,
park the vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter
the vehicle interior.
Do not leave the engine running
<hybrid system operating> in an area
with snow build-up, or where it is
snowing. If snowbanks build up around
the vehicle while the engine is running
<hybrid system is operating>, exhaust
gases may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.
