WARNING
QPrecaution regarding the rear
bumper with Blind Spot Monitor
If the paint of the rear bumper is chipped
or scratched, the system may malfunc-
tion. If this occurs, consult your Lexus
dealer.
NOTICE
QTo prevent paint deterioration and
corrosion on the body and compo-
nents (aluminum wheels etc.)
OWash the vehicle immediately in the
following cases:
• After driving near the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar, pollen or tree sap is present on the paint surface
• If dead insects, insect droppings or bird droppings are present on the
paint surface
• After driving in an area contaminated with soot, oily smoke, mine dust, iron
powder or chemical substances
• If the vehicle becomes heavily soiled with dust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gasoline are spilled on the paint surface
OIf the paint is chipped or scratched,
have it repaired immediately.
OTo prevent the wheels from corroding,
remove any dirt and store in a place
with low humidity when storing the
wheels.
QCleaning the exterior lights
OWash carefully. Do not use organic
substances or scrub with a hard brush.
This may damage the surfaces of the
lights.
ODo not apply wax to the surfaces of the
lights.
Wax may cause damage to the lenses.
QWhen using an automatic car wash
(vehicles with rain-s ensing windshield
wipers)
Set the wiper switch to the off position.
If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wip-
ers may operate and the wiper blades
may be damaged.
QWhen using a high pressure car wash
OWhen washing the vehicle, do not
spray the camera or its surrounding
area directly with a high pressure
washer. Shock applied from high pres-
sure water may cause the device to not
operate normally.
ODo not spray water directly on the
radar which is equipped behind the
emblem. Otherwise it may cause the
device to be damaged.
ODo not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or resin manufactured
cover), connectors or the following
parts. The parts may be damaged if
they come into contact with high-pres-
sure water.
• Traction related parts
•Steering parts
• Suspension parts
• Brake parts
OKeep the cleaning nozzle at least 11.9
in. (30 cm) away from the vehicle
body. Otherwise resin section, such as
moldings and bumpers, may be
deformed and damaged. Also, do not
continuously hold the nozzle in the
same place.
ODo not spray the lower part of the
windshield continuously.
If water enters the air conditioning sys-
tem intake located near the lower part
of the windshield, the air conditioning
system may not operate correctly.
ODo not wash the underside of the vehi-
cle using a high pressure car washer.

3126-1. Maintenance and care
Remove dirt using a water-damp-
ened soft cloth or synthetic chamois.
 Wipe the surface with a dry soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture.
QCleaning the areas with satin-finish
metal accents
The metal areas use a layer of real metal for
the surface. It is necessary to clean them
regularly. If dirty areas are left uncleaned
for long periods of time, they may be diffi-
cult to clean.
 Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner.
 Wipe off any excess dirt and dust
with a soft cloth dampened with
diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of approxi-
mately 5% neutral wool detergent.
Wring out any excess water from
the cloth and thoroughly wipe off all
remaining traces of detergent.
 Wipe the surface with a dry soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture. Allow the leather to dry in
a shaded and ventilated area.
QCaring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleaning the interior of
the vehicle at least twice a year to maintain
the quality of the vehicle’s interior.
NOTICE
QPreventing damage to leather sur-
faces
Observe the following precautions to
avoid damage to and deterioration of
leather surfaces:
ORemove any dust or dirt from leather
surfaces immediately.
ODo not expose the vehicle to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, espe-
cially during summer.
ODo not place items made of vinyl, plas-
tic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather
surface if the vehicle interior heats up
significantly.
QWater on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.
Vehicle systems such as the audio sys-
tem may be damaged if water comes into
contact with electrical components such
as the audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may also
cause the body to rust.
QWhen cleaning the inside of the wind-
shield
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the
lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
(  P.177)
QCleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow
ODo not use glass cleaner to clean the
rear window, as this may cause dam-
age to the rear window defogger
heater wires or antenna. Use a cloth
dampened with lukewarm water to
gently wipe the window clean. Wipe
the window in strokes running parallel
to the heater wires or antenna.
OBe careful not to scratch or damage
the heater wires or antenna.
