BATTERY RECHARGING
PRECAUTIONS
During recharging, the battery is producing hydrogen
gas.
Therefore, before recharging:
1. Remove the vent plugs.
2. If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be
sure to disconnect the ground cable.
3. Be sure the power switch on the recharger is off when
connecting the charger cables to the battery and when
disconnecting them.
CAUTION:
Always charge the battery in an unconfined area. Do not
charge the battery in a garage or closed room where there
is insufficient ventilation.
NOTICE:
Never recharge the battery while the engine is running.
Also, be sure all accessories are turned off.
CHECKING AND REPLACING THE
BLADE TYPE FUSES
Driver’s side kick panel
Engine compartment
Spare fuses
Pull-out tool
1. Turn the ignition switch off and open the fuse box lid.

ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
225 Determine which fuse may be causing the problem. The lid of
the fuse box shows the name of the circuit for each fuse.
2. Make sure the inoperative component is turned off. Pull
the suspected fuse straight out with the pull-out tool and
check it. If it has blown, push a new fuse into the clips.
a. Look carefully at the fuse. If the thin wire is broken, the fuse
has blown. If you are not sure or if it is too dark to see, try
replacing the suspected fuse with one of the same value that
you know is good.
b. Install only a fuse with the amperage rating designated on
the fuse box lid.
GoodBlown
If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can pull
out the “CIG”, “RADIO”, “DOME” or “HEATER” fuse, which
may be dispensable for normal driving, and use it if its
amperage rating is the same.
If you cannot use one of the same amperage, use one lower
than, but as close as possible to, the amperage. If the
amperage is lower than that specified, the fuse might blow out
again but this does not indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get
the correct fuse as soon as possible and return the substitute
to its original clips.
It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and keep them
in your vehicle for emergencies.
If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem with
the electrical system. Have your Lexus dealer correct it as
soon as possible.
CAUTION:
Never use a fuse with a higher amperage rating, or another
object, in place of a fuse. This may cause extensive
damage and possibly a fire.
