tion display, clean the air intake vents
(P. 335). If the message is still dis-
played after cleaning the air intake

your Lexus dealer.
A filter is installed to the air intake vent.
●
When the filter remains noticeably
dirty even after cleaning the air intake
vent, filter cleaning or replacement is
recommended. For information
regarding filter cleaning or replace-
ment, contact your Lexus dealer.
Emergency shut off system
When a certain level of impact is
detected by the impact sensor, the
emergency shut off system blocks the
high voltage current and stops the fuel
pump to minimize the risk of electrocu-
tion and fuel leakage. If the emergency
shut off system activates, your vehicle
will not restart. To restart the hybrid
system, contact your Lexus dealer.
Hybrid warning message
A message is automatically displayed
when a malfunction occurs in the
hybrid system or an improper opera-
tion is attempted.
If a warning message is shown on the
multi-information display, read the
message and follow the instructions.
