Regular maintenance is essential
to obtaining the highest level of
performance, safety and reli-
ability from your Lexus. It can also
enhance your vehicle’s resale value.
This section of the Warranty and
Services Guide is designed to help
you make sure your vehicle receives
proper and timely maintenance.
It includes factory-recommended
maintenance guidelines as well as
logs in which to document your
vehicle’s maintenance history.
In addition to scheduled mainte -
nance, your Lexus requires ongoing
general maintenance such as fluid
checks and visual inspections. These
procedures are listed on pages
42–43 of this booklet and described
in detail in the “Maintenance”
section of the Owner’s Manual. It is especially important to check
your vehicle’s engine oil once a
month and to regularly replace
the engine oil and oil filter. failure
to do so can cause oil starvation
and
/or oil gelling, which can
result in severe damage to your
vehicle and require costly repairs
that are not covered by the new
Vehicle limited Warranty.
With proper maintenance and care,
your vehicle will last longer and
deliver more dependable, economical
performance. Follow this booklet’s
recommendations and you’ll enjoy
maximum reliability and peace of
mind from your Lexus for many
years to come.
