D The red warning light does not turn off even after the parking brake is released with the hybrid system on. D The red warning light stays on. In either case, this can indicate that the brakes may not work properly and your stopping distance will increase. Depress the brake pedal firmly and bring the vehicle to an immediate stop. D The red brake system warning light remains on together with the "ABS" warning light and the warning message "CHECK VSC SYSTEM". In this case, not only the anti−lock brake system function and vehicle stability control function of the VDIM (vehicle dynamics integrated management) will fail but also the vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking. In the following case, drive directly to the nearest Lexus dealer. D The yellow warning light comes on while driving. Any of the following conditions may occur, but do not indicate the malfunction: D The red and yellow warning lights may stay on for about 60 seconds after the ignition is turned on.
