STARTING AND DRIVING
292
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may turn on the lights.
It is normal if they go off after a few seconds.
When the “VSC/TRAC” warning light and “VSC OFF” indicator
light come on, the vehicle stability control system is not
operating, but there is no problem if you continue to drive.
In the following cases, contact your Lexus dealer:
D The “VSC/TRAC” warning light, “VSC OFF” indicator light
and slip indicator light do not come on after the ignition is
turned to on.
D The “VSC/TRAC” warning light and “VSC OFF” indicator
light remain on after the ignition is turned to on.
D The “VSC OFF” indicator light comes on while driving
without pushing the center differential lock switch.
CAUTION
D Active traction control system, vehicle stability
control system and anti−lock brake system are
electronic systems designed to help the driver
maintain control under adverse conditions. They are
not a substitute for safe driving practices. Factors
including speed, road conditions and driver steering
input can all affect whether active traction control
system, vehicle stability control system and
anti−lock brake system will be effective in preventing
a loss of control. Always keep safety driving in mind.
If the slip indicator light flashes, sounding an alarm,
special care should be taken while driving.
D Only use tires of specified size. The size,
manufacturer, brand and tread pattern for all 4 tires
should be the same. If you use the tires other than
specified, or different type or size, the vehicle
stability control system may not function correctly.
When replacing the tires or wheels, contact your
Lexus dealer. (See “Checking and replacing tires” on
page 438.)
