2806-1. Maintenance and care
WARNING
■Precautions regarding the exhaust
pipes and rear bumper diffusers
As exhaust gases cause the exhaust
pipes and rear bumper diffusers to
become quite hot, do not touch the
exhaust pipes and rear bumper diffusers
while the engine is running tem is operating> or immediately after
the engine is turned off.
When washing the vehicle, be careful not
to touch the exhaust pipes and rear
bumper diffusers until they have cooled
sufficiently, as touching hot exhaust pipes
and rear bumper diffusers can cause
burns.
■Precaution regarding the rear
bumper with Blind Spot Monitor (if
equipped)
If the paint of the rear bumper is chipped
or scratched, the system may malfunc-
tion. If this occurs, consult your Lexus
dealer.
NOTICE
■Application of coatings to the vehicle
body (vehicles wi th CFRP parts)
Do not apply any kind of coating to the
vehicle body as doing so may damage
the paint or reduce its durability.
■To prevent paint deterioration and
corrosion on the body and compo-
nents (aluminum wheels etc.)
●Wash 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
●If the paint is chipped or scratched,
have it repaired immediately.
●To prevent the wheels from corroding,
remove any dirt and store in a place
with low humidity when storing the
wheels.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic
substances or scrub with a hard brush.
This may damage the surfaces of the
lights.
●Do not apply wax to the surfaces of the
lights.
Wax may cause damage to the lenses.
■When using an automatic car wash
Set the wiper switch to the off position.
If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wip-

■After a fuse is replaced
●When installing the lid, make sure that the
tab is installed securely.
●If the lights do not turn on even after the
fuse has been replaced, a bulb may need
replacement. ( P.328)
●If the replaced fuse blows again, have the
vehicle inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protecting
the wiring harness from damage.
■When replacing light bulbs
Lexus recommends that you use genuine
Lexus products designed for this vehicle.
Because certain bulbs are connected to cir-
cuits designed to prevent overload, non-
genuine parts or parts not designed for this
vehicle may be unusable.
WARNING
■To prevent system breakdowns and
vehicle fire
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause damage to
the vehicle, and possibly a fire or injury.
●Never use a fuse of a higher amperage
rating than that indicated, or use any
other object in place of a fuse.
