For your information

Main Owner’s Manual
Please note that this manual applies to all models and explains all equipment, including options. Therefore, you may find some explanations for equipment not installed on your vehicle.
All specifications provided in this man­ual are current at the time of printing. However, because of the Lexus policy of continual product improvement, we reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehi­cle shown in the illustrations may differ from your vehicle in terms of color and equipment.
Accessories, spare parts and modifi­cation of your Lexus
A wide variety of non-genuine spare parts and accessories for Lexus vehi­cles are currently available in the mar­ket. Using these spare parts and accessories which are not genuine Lexus products may adversely affect the safety of your vehicle, even though these parts may be approved by cer­tain authorities in your country. Toyota Motor Corporation therefore cannot accept any liability or guarantee spare parts and accessories which are not genuine Lexus products, nor for replacement or installation involving such parts.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Lexus products. Modification with non-genuine Lexus products could affect its performance, safety or durability, and may even vio­late governmental regulations. In addi­tion, damage or performance problems resulting from the modifica­tion may not be covered under war­ranty.
Installation of an RF-transmitter sys­tem
The installation of an RF-transmitter system in your vehicle could affect electronic systems such as:
Multiport fuel injection sys-
tem/sequential multiport fuel injec­tion system
Lexus Safety System+
Cruise control system
Anti-lock brake system
SRS airbag system
Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Lexus dealer for precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installa­tion of an RF-transmitter system.
Further information regarding fre­quency bands, power levels, antenna positions and installation provisions for the installation of RF-transmitters, is available on request at your Lexus dealer.

Vehicle data recordings
Your Lexus is equipped with several sophisticated computers that will record certain data, such as:
• Engine speed
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
•Shift position
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options with which it is equipped. Furthermore, these computers do not record con­versations, sounds or pictures.
Data usage
Lexus may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunctions, con­duct research and development, and improve quality.
Lexus will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if the vehi­cle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or vehicle owner
Event data recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main pur­pose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such
as an airbag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynam­ics and safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. However, data may not be recorded depending on the severity and type of a crash.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle
were operating;
How far (if at all) the driver was
depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situa­tion occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving condi­tions and no personal data (e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, spe­cial equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties, such as law enforcement,

that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have
Disclosure of the EDR data
Lexus will not disclose the data recorded in an EDR to a third party except when:
• An agreement from the vehicle’s owner (or the lessee for a leased vehicle) is obtained
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a government agency
• For use by Lexus in a lawsuit
However, if necessary, Lexus may:
• Use the data for research on vehicle safety performance
• Disclose the data to a third party for research purposes without disclosing information about the specific vehicle or vehicle owner
Scrapping of your Lexus
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Lexus contain explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by your Lexus dealer before you scrap your vehicle.
General precautions while driving
Driving under the influence: Never drive your vehicle when under the influence of alcohol or drugs that have impaired your ability to operate your vehicle. Alcohol and certain drugs delay reaction time, impair judgment and reduce coordina­tion, which could lead to an accident that could result in death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive defen­sively. Anticipate mistakes that other drivers or pedestrians might make and be ready to avoid accidents.
Driver distraction: Always give your full attention to driving. Anything that dis­tracts the driver, such as adjusting con­trols, talking on a cellular phone or reading can result in a collision with resulting death or serious injury to you, your occupants or others.
General precaution regarding chil-
dren’s safety
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehicle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children may injure themselves by playing with the windows, the moon roof, or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

Before driving

tration.
Observe the following before start­ing off in the vehicle to ensure safety of driving.
Installing floor mats
Use only floor mats designed specifi­cally for vehicles of the same model and model year as your vehicle. Fix them securely in place onto the carpet.
1 Insert the retaining hooks (clips)
into the floor mat eyelets.
2 Turn the upper knob of each retain-
ing hook (clip) to secure the floor mats in place.
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause the driver’s floor mat to slip, possibly interfering with the pedals while driving. An unexpect­edly high speed may result or it may become difficult to stop the vehicle. This could lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
When installing the driver’s floor mat
Do not use floor mats designed for
other models or different model year vehicles, even if they are Lexus Genu­ine floor mats.
Only use floor mats designed for the
driver’s seat.
Always install the floor mat securely
using the retaining hooks (clips) pro­vided.
Do not use two or more floor mats on
top of each other.
Do not place the floor mat bottom-
side up or upside-down.
Before driving
Check that the floor mat is securely
fixed in the correct place with all the provided retaining hooks (clips). Be especially careful to perform this check after cleaning the floor.
Always align the marks.
The shape of the retaining hooks (clips) may differ from that shown in the illus-
With the engine stopped and the shift
lever in P, fully depress each pedal to the floor to make sure it does not inter­fere with the floor mat.

For safe driving

For safe driving, adjust the seat and mirror to an appropriate position before driving.
Correct driving posture
Adjust the angle of the seatback so
A
that you are sitting straight up and so that you do not have to lean for­ward to steer. (P.110)
Adjust the seat so that you can
B
depress the pedals fully and so that your arms bend slightly at the elbow when gripping the steering wheel. (P.110, 122)
Lock the head restraint in place
C
with the center of the head restraint closest to the top of your ears. (P.120)
Wear the seat belt correctly.
D
(P.26)
Do not adjust the position of the
driver’s seat while driving. Doing so could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Do not place a cushion between the
driver or passenger and the seatback. A cushion may prevent correct pos­ture from being achieved, and reduce the effectiveness of the seat belt and head restraint.
Do not place anything under the front
seats. Objects placed under the front seats may become jammed in the seat tracks and stop the seat from locking in place. This may lead to an accident and the adjustment mechanism may also be damaged.
Always observe the legal speed limit
when driving on public roads.
When driving over long distances, take
regular breaks before you start to feel tired. Also, if you feel tired or sleepy while driving, do not force yourself to con­tinue driving and take a break immedi­ately.
Correct use of the seat belts
Make sure that all occupants are wear­ing their seat belts before driving the vehicle. (P.27)
Use a child restraint system appropri­ate for the child until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt. (P.39)
Adjusting the mirrors

For safety and security
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Make sure that you can see the rear of the vehicle clearly, by adjusting the inside and outside rear view mirrors

1-1. For safe use
properly. (P.123, 124)

Seat belts

Make sure that all occupants are wearing their seat belts before driv­ing the vehicle.
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of injury in the event of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident. Failing to do so may cause death or seri­ous injury.
Wearing a seat belt
Ensure that all passengers wear a seat
belt.
Always wear a seat belt properly.
Each seat belt should be used by one
person only. Do not use a seat belt for more than one person at once, includ­ing children.
Lexus recommends that children be
seated in the rear seat and always use a seat belt and/or an appropriate child restraint system.
To achieve a proper seating position,
do not recline the seat more than nec­essary. The seat belt is most effective when the occupants are sitting up straight and well back in the seats.

the motion of the occupants.
If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may
be sustained from SRS airbags, due to the extremely high speed deployment (infla­tion) by hot gases.
A loud noise and white powder will be
emitted.
Parts of the airbag module (steering
wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as the front seats, parts of the front and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
The windshield may crack.
SRS a irbag deployment conditions (SRS
front airbags)
The SRS front airbags will deploy in the
event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corre­sponding to an approximately 20-30 km/h [12-18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform). However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situa­tions:
• If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole, which can move or deform on impact
• If the vehicle is involved in an underride collision, such as a collision in which the front of the vehicle underrides, or goes under, the bed of a truck
Depending on the type of collision, it is
possible that only the seat belt pretensioners will activate.
The SRS seat cushion airbag on the front
passenger seat will not operate if the occupant is not wearing a seat belt.
SRS a irbag deployment conditions (SRS
side and curtain shield airbags)
The SRS side and curtain shield airbags
will deploy in the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact force produced by an approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehicle colliding with
the vehicle cabin from a direction per­pendicular to the vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 -30 km/h [12 ­18 mph]).
The SRS side and curtain shield airbags
may also deploy in the event of a severe frontal collision.
Conditions under which the SRS air-
bags may deploy (inflate), other than a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS side and curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some examples are shown in the illustration.

Types of collisions that may not deploy
the SRS airbags (SRS front airbags)
The SRS front airbags do not generally inflate if the vehicle is involved in a side or rear collision, if it rolls over, or if it is involved in a low-speed frontal collision.

The SRS driver airbag deploys with
considerable force, and can cause death or serious injury especially if the driver is very close to the airbag. Since the risk zone for the driver’s air­bag is the first 50 - 75 mm (2 - 3 in.) of inflation, placing yourself 250 mm (10 in.) from your driver airbag provides you with a clear margin of safety. This distance is measured from the center of the steering wheel to your breast­bone. If you sit less than 250 mm (10 in.) away now, you can change your driving position in several ways:
• Move your seat to the rear as far as you can while still reaching the pedals comfortably.
• Slightly recline the back of the seat. Although vehicle designs vary, many drivers can achieve the 250 mm (10 in.) distance, even with the driver seat all the way forward, simply by reclining the back of the seat somewhat. If reclining the back of your seat makes it hard to see the road, raise yourself by using a firm, non-slippery cushion, or raise the seat if your vehicle has that feature.
• If your steering wheel is adjustable, tilt it downward. This points the airbag toward your chest instead of your head and neck.
The seat should be adjusted as recom­mended above, while still maintaining control of the foot pedals, steering wheel,

and your view of the instrument panel controls.
The SRS front passenger airbag also
deploys with considerable force, and can cause death or serious injury especially if the front passenger is very close to the airbag. The front passen­ger seat should be as far from the air­bag as possible with the seatback adjusted, so the front passenger sits upright.

infants and children can be killed or seriously injured by a deploying airbag. An infant or child who is too small to use a seat belt should be properly secured using a child restraint system. Lexus strongly recommends that all infants and children be placed in the rear seats of the vehicle and properly restrained. The rear seats are safer for infants and children than the front pas­senger seat. (P.39)
Do not sit on the edge of the seat or
lean against the dashboard.
1-1. For safe use

1-1. For safe use
Do not attach anything to areas such
as a door, windshield glass, side door glass, front or rear pillar, roof side rail and assist grip.
Do not hang coat hangers or other
hard objects on the coat hooks. All of these items could become projectiles and may cause death or serious injury, should the SRS curtain shield airbags deploy.
If a vinyl cover is put on the area where
the SRS knee airbag will deploy, be sure to remove it.
Do not use seat accessories which
cover the parts where the SRS side air­bags and SRS seat cushion airbag inflate as they may interfere with infla­tion of the SRS airbags. Such accesso­ries may prevent the side airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag from activat­ing correctly, disable the system or cause the side airbags and SRS seat cushion airbag to inflate accidentally, resulting in death or serious injury.
Do not strike or apply significant levels
of force to the area of the SRS airbag components. Doing so can cause the SRS airbags to malfunction.
Do not touch any of the component
parts immediately after the SRS air­bags have deployed (inflated) as they may be hot.
If breathing becomes difficult after the
SRS airbags have deployed, open a door or window to allow fresh air in, or leave the vehicle if it is safe to do so. Wash off any residue as soon as possi­ble to prevent skin irritation.
If the areas where the SRS airbags are
stored, such as the steering wheel pad and front and rear pillar garnishes, are damaged or cracked, have them replaced by your Lexus dealer.
Modification and disposal of SRS air-
bag system components
Do not dispose of your vehicle or per­form any of the following modifications without consulting your Lexus dealer. The SRS airbags may malfunction or deploy (inflate) accidentally, causing death or serious injury.

Safety information for chil­dren
Observe the following precautions when children are in the vehicle. Use a child restraint system appro­priate for the child, until the child becomes large enough to properly wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that children
sit in the rear seats to avoid acci­dental contact with the shift lever, wiper switch, etc.
Use the rear door child-protector
lock or the window lock switch to avoid children opening the door while driving or operating the power window accidentally. (93, 128)
Do not let small children operate
equipment which may catch or pinch body parts, such as the power window, hood, back door, seats etc.

Child restraint systems

Before installing a child restraint system in the vehicle, there are pre­cautions that need to be observed, different types of child restraint sys­tems, as well as installation meth­ods, etc., written in this manual.
Use a child restraint system when riding with a small child that cannot properly use a seat belt. For the child’s safety, install the child restraint system to a rear seat. Be sure to fol­low the installation method that is in the operation manual enclosed with the restraint system.

When a child is riding
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
For effective protection in automobile
accidents and sudden stops, a child must be properly restrained, using a seat belt or child restraint system depending on the age and size of the child.
Lexus strongly urges the use of a
proper child restraint system that con­forms to the size of the child, installed on the rear seat. According to acci­dent statistics, the child is safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat.
Holding a child in your or someone
else’s arms is not a substitute for a child restraint system. In an accident, the child can be crushed against the wind­shield or between the holder and the interior of the vehicle.
Place one child to a child restraint sys-
tem and then secure the child with the harness of the child restraint system.
Handling the child restraint system
If the child restraint system is not prop­erly fixed in place, the child or other pas­sengers may be seriously injured or even killed in the event of sudden braking, sud­den swerving, or an accident.
If the vehicle were to receive a strong
impact from an accident, etc., it is pos­sible that the child restraint system has damage that is not readily visible. In such cases, do not reuse the restraint system.
Depending on the child restraint sys-
tem, installation may be difficult or impossible. In those cases, check whether the child restraint system is suitable for installment in the vehicle. (P.45, 49) Be sure to install and observe the usage rules after carefully reading the child restraint system fixing method in this manual, as well as the operation manual enclosed with the child restraint system.
Keep the child restraint system prop-
erly secured on the seat even if it is not in use. Do not store the child restraint system unsecured in the passenger compartment.
If it is necessary to detach the child
restraint system, remove it from the vehicle or store it securely in the lug­gage compartment.

When riding in a n aircraft
When bringing an electronic key onto an aircraft, make sure you do not press any buttons on the electronic key while inside the aircraft cabin. If you are carrying an electronic key in your bag, etc., ensure that the buttons are not likely to be pressed acci­dentally. Pressing a button may cause the electronic key to emit radio waves that could interfere with the operation of the air­craft.
Electronic key battery depletion
The standard battery life is 1 to 2 years.
(The card key battery life is about a year and a half.)
If the battery becomes low, an alarm will
sound in the cabin when the engine stops.
As the electronic key always receives
radio waves, the battery will become depleted even if the electronic key is not used. The following symptoms indicate that the electronic key battery may be depleted. Replace the battery when nec­essary. (P.306)
• The smart entry & start system or the wireless remote control does not oper­ate.
• The detection area becomes smaller.
• The LED indicator on the key surface does not turn on.

Do not attach a sticker or anything else
to the surface of the electronic key.
Carrying the electronic key on your
person
Carry the electronic key 10 cm (3.9 in.) or more away from electric appliances that are turned on. Radio waves emitted from electric appliances within 10 cm (3.9 in.) of the electronic key may inter­fere with the key, causing the key to not function properly.
In case of a smart entry & start system
malfunction or other key-related problems
Take your vehicle with all the electronic keys provided with your vehicle, includ­ing the card key, to your Lexus dealer.
When an electronic key is lost
If the electronic key remains lost, the risk of vehicle theft increases significantly. Visit your Lexus dealer immediately with all remaining electronic keys and the card key that were provided with your vehicle.
Handling the card key
If the battery or card key terminals get
wet, the battery may corrode and the card key may stop working. If the key is dropped into water, or if drinking water, etc., is spilled on the key, immediately remove the battery cover and wipe the battery and termi­nals. (To remove the battery cover, lightly grasp and pull it.) If the battery is corroded, have your Lexus dealer replace the battery.

Back door

The back door can be locked/unlocked and opened/closed by the following procedures.
Caution while driving
Keep the back door closed while driv-
ing. If the back door is left open, it may hit nearby objects while driving or lug­gage may be unexpectedly thrown out, causing an accident. In addition, exhaust gases may enter the vehicle, causing death or a serious health hazard. Make sure to close the back door before driving.
Before driving the vehicle, make sure
that the back door is fully closed. If the back door is not fully closed, it may open unexpectedly while driving, causing an accident.
Never let anyone sit in the luggage
compartment. In the event of sudden braking or a collision, they are suscep­tible to death or serious injury.
When children are in the vehicle
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
Do not allow children to play in the lug-
gage compartment. If a child is accidentally locked in the luggage compartment, they could have heat exhaustion or other injuries.
Do not allow a child to open or close
the back door. Doing so may cause the back door to move unexpectedly, or cause the child’s hands, head, or neck to be caught by the closing back door.
Operating the back door
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause parts of the body to be caught, resulting in death or serious injury.
Remove any heavy loads, such as snow
and ice, from the back door before opening it. Failure to do so may cause the back door to suddenly shut again after it is opened.
When opening or closing the back
door, thoroughly check to make sure the surrounding area is safe.
If anyone is in the vicinity, make sure
they are safe and let them know that the back door is about to open or close.
Use caution when opening or closing
the back door in windy weather as it may move abruptly in strong wind.
Vehicles without power back door:
The back door may suddenly shut if it is not opened fully. It is more difficult to open or close the back door on an incline than on a level surface, so beware of the back door unexpectedly opening or closing by itself. Make sure that the back door is fully open and secure before using the luggage com­partment.
Vehicles with power back door: The
back door may suddenly shut if it is not opened fully, while on a steep incline. Make sure that the back door is secured before using the luggage compartment.

sure to press it lightly on its outer sur­face. If the back door handle is used to fully close the back door, it may result in hands or arms being caught.
Do not pull on the back door damper
stay (vehicles without power back door) (P.96) or back door spindle (vehicles with power back door) (P.102) to close the back door, and do not hang on the back door damper stay (vehicles without power back door) or back door spindle (vehicles with power back door). Doing so may cause hands to be caught or the back door damper stay (vehicles without power back door) or back door spindle (vehicles with power back door) to break, causing an accident.
If a bicycle carrier or similar heavy
object is attached to the back door, it may suddenly shut again after being opened, causing someone’s hands, head or neck to be caught and injured. When installing an accessory part to the back door, using a genuine Lexus part is recommended.
