Maintenance and care
■When using a car wash
If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effective
range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a position 6 ft. (2
m) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being washed. (Take care
to ensure that the key is not stolen.)
■Aluminum wheels
●Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent. Do not use hard
brushes or abrasive cleaners. Do not use strong or harsh chemical cleaners. 
Use the same mild detergent and wax as used on the paint.
●Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, for example after driving
for long distance in the hot weather.
●Wash detergent from the wheels immediately after use.
■Bumpers and side moldings
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
■Side windows water-repellent coating
●The following precautions can extend the effectiveness of the water-repellent
coating.
• Remove any dirt, etc. from the side windows regularly.
• Do not allow dirt and dust to accumulate on the windows for a long period.
Clean the windows with a soft, damp cloth as soon as possible.
• Do not use wax or glass cleaners that contain abrasives when cleaning the windows.
• Do not use any metallic objects to remove condensation build up.
●When the water-repellent performance has become insufficient, the coating
can be repaired. Contact your Lexus dealer.
■Outside rear view mirror rain -clearing coating (if equipped)
Observe the following precautions in order to retain the rain-clearing properties of
the mirrors:
●Clean the mirrors using a car shampoo or glass cleaner that does not contain
silicone or an abrasive compound, and rinse thoroughly with water.

■Before recharging
When recharging, the 12-volt battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable
and explosive. Therefore, observe the following precautions before recharging:
●If recharging with the 12-volt battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to discon-
nect the ground cable.
●Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and discon-
necting the charger cables to the 12-volt battery.
■After recharging/reconnecting the 12-volt battery
●Unlocking the doors using the smart key system may not be possible immedi-
ately after reconnecting the 12-volt batt ery. If this happens, use the wireless
remote control or the mechanical key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the hybrid system with the “POWER” switch in ACCESSORY mode. The
hybrid system may not start with the “POWER” switch turned OFF. However,
the hybrid system will operate normally from the second attempt.
●The “POWER” switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the battery is recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the “POWER” switch mode to the status it was in
before the battery was disconnected. Make sure to turn off the power before
disconnect the battery. Take extra care  when connecting the battery if the
“POWER” switch mode prior to discharge is unknown.
■ Exterior
Make sure that the 12-volt ba ttery terminals are not corroded and
that there are no loose connect ions, cracks or loose clamps.
