ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road conditions.
When parking the vehicle

brake. The parking brake may freeze up, preventing it from being released. If
the vehicle is parked without setting the parking brake, make sure to block the
wheels.
Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehicle to move
unexpectedly, possibly leading to an accident.
If the vehicle is parked without setting the parking brake, confirm that the shift

lever cannot be moved out of P

: The shift lever will be locked if it is attempted to be shifted from P to any other position
without depressing the brake pedal. If the shift lever can be shifted from P, there may
be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized
Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer immediately.
