■LED lights
The lights other than the discharge headlights (if equipped), halogen fog lights (if
equipped), front turn signal lights, rear turn signal lights, back-up lights and outer
foot lights each consist of a number of LEDs. If any of the LEDs burn out, take your
vehicle to your Lexus dealer to have the light replaced.
■Condensation build-up on the inside of the lens
Temporary condensation build-up on the inside of the headlight lens does not indi-
cate a malfunction. Contact your Lexus dealer for more information in the following
situations:
●Large drops of water have built up on the inside of the lens.
●Water has built up inside the headlight.

CAUTION
■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after turning
off the lights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. When it is
unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a clean dry cloth to avoid
getting moisture and oils on the bulb.
Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so may
result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This may damage
the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
●While the headlights are turned on, and for
a short time after they have been turned off,
metal components at the rear of the head-
light assembly will be extremely hot. To pre-
vent burns, do not touch these metal
components until you are certain they have
cooled down.

Maintenance and care
CAUTION
■Discharge headlights
●Contact your Lexus dealer before replacing the discharge headlights (including
light bulbs).
●Do not touch the discharge headlight’s high voltage socket when the headlights
are turned on.
An extremely high voltage of 30000 V will be discharged and could result in
death or serious injury by electric shock.
●Do not attempt to take apart or repair the headlight bulbs, connectors, power
supply circuits, or related components.
Doing so could result in electric shock and death or serious injury.
■To prevent damage or fire
●Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.
●Check the wattage of the bulb before installing to prevent heat damage.

7587-2. Steps to take in an emergency
GS350_OM_OM30D41U_(U)Start the engine of the second ve
hicle. Increase the engine speed
slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5 minutes to
recharge the battery of your vehicle.
Open and close any of the doors of your vehicle with the engine switch
off.
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start the engine of
your vehicle by turning the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper cables in the
exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
■Starting the engine when the battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle is
not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of certain electrical
appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may discharge, and the
engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges automatically during driving.)
