ADDING WASHER FLUID
64X603a
If the washer tank becomes nearly empty, add washer
fluid.
You may use plain water as washer fluid. However, in cold
areas where temperatures range below the freezing point, use
washer fluid containing antifreeze. This product is available at
your Lexus dealer and most auto parts stores. Follow the
manufacturer’s directions for how much to mix with water.
NOTICE
 Do not use engine antifreeze or any other substitute
because it may damage your vehicle’s paint.
 Do not fill washer fluid over the “NORMAL” level.
REPLACING LIGHT BULBS
The illustrations on the following pages show the locations of
light bulbs. If it is necessary to replace a bulb, take your vehicle
to your Lexus dealer as soon as possible. Use bulbs with the
bulb numbers and wattage ratings given in the table.
The tail lights and stop lights consist of a number of LEDs. If
any LED burns out, we recommend you take your vehicle to
your Lexus dealer to have the light inspected as soon as
possible.
If two or more LEDs in a stop light burn out, your vehicle may
not conform to local laws(SAE).
CAUTION
 To prevent burning yourself, do not replace the light
bulbs while they are hot.
 Halogen bulbs have pressurized gas inside and
require special handling. They can burst or shatter if
scratched or dropped. Hold a bulb only by its plastic
or metal case. Do not touch the glass part of a bulb
with bare hands.
NOTICE
Only use a bulb of the listed type.
