Hybrid System

A

B

C

D

Your vehicle is a Hybrid Electric Vehicle. It has characteristics different from conventional
vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the characteristics of your vehicle, and
operate it with care.

The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an electric motor (traction
motor) according to driving conditions, improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust
emissions.

For details, refer to the “OWNER’S MANUAL”.

Hybrid System Indicator

 Except F SPORT models  F SPORT models

Shows regeneration
battery (traction battery).

* status. Regenerated energy will be used to charge the hybrid

*: When used in this manual, regeneration refers to the conversion of energy created by

the movement of the vehicle into electrical energy.

Hybrid Eco area

Shows that gasoline engine power is not being used very often.

The gasoline engine will automatically stop and restart under various conditions.

Eco area

Shows that the vehicle is being driven in an Eco-friendly manner.

By keeping the bar display within Eco area, more Eco-friendly driving can be achieved.

Power area

Shows that an Eco-friendly driving range is being exceeded (during full power driving
etc.)

11

Hybrid battery (traction battery) charge

If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will not be charged even when
the engine is running. Therefore, if the vehicle is left with the shift lever in N for a certain
amount of time, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will discharge, and this may result in the
vehicle not being able to start.

Regenerative braking

In the following situations, kinetic energy is converted to electric energy and deceleration
force can be obtained in conjunction with the recharging of the hybrid battery (traction bat­tery).

● The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift lever in D or S.

● The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift lever in D or S.

Sounds and vibrations specific to a Hybrid Electric Vehicle

There may be no engine sound or vibration even though the vehicle is able to move with the
“READY” indicator is illuminated. For safety, apply the parking brake and make sure to shift
the shift lever to P when parked.

The following sounds or vibrations may occur when the hybrid system is operating and are
not a malfunction:

● Motor sounds may be heard from the engine compartment.

● Sounds may be heard from the hybrid battery (traction battery) behind the rear seats

when the hybrid system starts or stops.

● Relay operating sounds such as a snap or soft clank will be emitted from the hybrid bat­tery (traction battery), behind the rear seats, when the hybrid system is started or
stopped.

● Sounds from the hybrid system may be heard when the back door is open.

● Sounds may be heard from the hybrid transmission when the gasoline engine starts or

stops, when driving at low speeds, or during idling.

● Engine sounds may be heard when accelerating sharply.

● Sounds may be heard due to regenerative braking when the brake pedal is depressed or

as the accelerator pedal is released.

● Vibration may be felt when the gasoline engine starts or stops.

● Cooling fan sounds may be heard from the air intake vent under the right side of the rear

seat.

12

Running out of fuel

When the vehicle has run out of fuel and the hybrid system cannot be started, refuel the
vehicle with at least enough gasoline to make the low fuel level warning light go off. If there is
only a small amount of fuel, the hybrid system may not be able to start. (The standard amount
of fuel is about 1.8 gal. [7.0 L, 1.5 Imp.gal.], when the vehicle is on a level surface. This value
may vary when the vehicle is on a slope. Add extra fuel when the vehicle is inclined.)

Hybrid warning message

A message is automatically displayed when a malfunction occurs in the hybrid system or an
improper operation is attempted.

If a warning message is shown on the multi­information display, read the message and
follow the instructions.

13

Floor Mat Installation

A

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 retaining

hook (clip) to secure the floor mats in
place.

Always align the marks .

The shape of the retaining hooks (clips) may differ from that shown in the illustration.

Services

Subscribers have the following Safety Connect services available:

● Automatic Collision Notification
In case of either airbag deployment or severe rear-end collision, the system is designed
to automatically call the response center. The responding agent receives the vehicle’s
location and attempts to speak with the vehicle occupants to assess the level of emer­gency. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automatically treats the
call as an emergency, contacts the nearest emergency services provider to describe the
situation, and requests that assistance be sent to the location.

74

● Stolen Vehicle Location
If your vehicle is stolen, Safety Connect can work with local authorities to assist them in
locating and recovering the vehicle. After filing a police report, call the Safety Connect
response center at 1-800-25-LEXUS (1-800-255-3987) in the United States, 1-877­539-8777 in Puerto Rico or 1-800-265-3987 in Canada, and follow the prompts for
Safety Connect to initiate this service.
In addition to assisting law enforcement with recovery of a stolen vehicle, Safety-Con­nect-equipped vehicle location data may, under certain circumstances, be shared with
third parties to locate your vehicle. Further information is available at Lexus.com.

● Emergency Assistance Button (“SOS”)
In the event of an emergency on the road, push the “SOS” button to reach the Safety
Connect response center. The answering agent will determine your vehicle’s location,
assess the emergency, and dispatch the necessary assistance required.

If you accidentally press the “SOS” button, tell the response-center agent that you are
not experiencing an emergency.

● Enhanced Roadside Assistance
Enhanced Roadside Assistance adds GPS data to the already included warranty-based
Lexus roadside service.
Subscribers can press the “SOS” button to reach a Safety Connect response-center
agent, who can help with a wide range of needs, such as: towing, flat tire, fuel delivery, etc.
For a description of the Roadside Assistance services and their limitations, please see the
Safety Connect Terms and Conditions, which are available at Lexus.com.
