Maintenance requirements
To ensure safe and economical driving, day-to-day care and regular
maintenance
is essential. It is the owner’s responsibility to perform regular
checks. Lexus recommends the following maintenance.
General maintenance
Should be performed on a daily basis. This can be done by yourself or by a Lexus dealer.
Scheduled maintenance
Should be performed at specified intervals according to the maintenance schedule.
For details about maintenance items and schedules, refer to the “Warranty and Services Guide/Owner’s Manual Supplement/Scheduled Maintenance”.
Do-it-yourself maintenance
You can perform some maintenance procedures yourself.
Please be aware that do-it-yourself maintenance may affect warranty coverage.
The use of Lexus Repair Manuals is recommended.
For details about warranty coverage, see the separate “Owner’s Guide”, “Warranty and Services Guide”, “Owner’s Manual Supplement” or “Warranty Booklet”.
Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine Lexus parts be used for repair to ensure
performance
of each system. If non-Lexus parts are used in replacement or if a repair
shop other than a Lexus dealer performs repairs, confirm the warranty coverage.
Allow inspection and repairs to be performed by a Lexus dealer
Lexus technicians are well-trained specialists and are kept up to date with
the
latest service information. They are well informed about the operations of all
systems on your vehicle.
- Keep a copy of the repair order. It proves that the maintenance that has been performed is under warranty coverage. If any problem should arise while your vehicle is under warranty, your Lexus dealer will promptly take care of it.
