GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS When the "ABS" warning light is on (and the brake system warning light is off), the brake system operates conventionally but anti-lock brake system is not assisting brake performance so that the wheels could lock up during a sudden brake or braking on slippery road surfaces. However, the anti-lock brake system does not operate when the rear differential is locked. It is normal operation for the "ABS" warning light to be on at this time. (i) Automatic Transmission Fluid Temperature Warning Light This light warns that the automatic transmission fluid temperature is too high. If this light comes on while you are driving, slow down and pull off the road. Stop the vehicle at a safe place and put the selector lever in "P" and leave the engine idling until the light goes off. If the light goes off, you can start the vehicle again. If the light does not go off, call a Lexus dealer or qualified repair shop for assistance. (g) Open Door Warning Light This light remains on until all the side doors and back door are completely closed. (h) Unengaged "Park" Warning Light This light warns that the transmission "Park" mechanism is not engaged. If the four-wheel drive control is in the "N" position while the selector lever is in the "P" position, the transmission will disengage and the wheels will not lock. NOTICE Continued driving with the warning light on may damage the automatic transmission. CAUTION To restore the park function, shift the four-wheel drive control out of "N". 43
