Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
●Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen.
Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away the
water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
●To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan, remove
any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
●Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accumu-
lated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the tires or on
the brakes.
●Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before getting
in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you and the
vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road conditions.
●Park the vehicle and move the shift lever to P without setting the park-
ing brake. The parking brake may free ze up, preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is parked without setting the parking brake,
make sure to block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehicle to
move unexpectedly, possibly leading to an accident.
●If the vehicle is parked without setting the parking brake, confirm that
the shift lever cannot be moved out of P*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is attempted to be shifted from P to any other
position without depressing the brake pedal. If the shift lever can be shifted
from P, there may be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer immediately.

CAUTION
■Driving with snow tires

Failure to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or serious
injury.
●Use tires of the specified size.
●Maintain the recommended level of air pressure.
●Do not drive at speeds in excess of the speed limit or the speed limit specified for
the snow tires being used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just some wheels.
■Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely, and may
cause death or serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being used,
or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting opera-
tions that cause sudden engine braking.
●Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle control is
maintained.

NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow tires
Request repairs or replacement of snow ti res from Lexus dealers or legitimate tire
retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the operation of
the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
■Fitting tire chains
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly when
tire chains are fitted.

CAUTION
■For your safety
●Please drive safely.
The function of this system is to assist you in making the Emergency Call in case
of accidents as traffic accidents or sudden medical emergencies, and it does not
protect the driver or the passengers in any way. Please drive safely and fasten
your seatbelts at all times for your safety.
●In case of an emergency, make lives the top priority.
●If you smell anything burning or another unusual smell, do not stay inside the vehi-
cle and evacuate to a safe area immediately.
●Since the system detects shocks, the automatic reporting may not always occur
synchronized with the operation of the airbag system. (If the vehicle is bumped
from behind, etc.)
●The airbag may not inflate even in case of an accident, if it does not involve high
impact. In such cases, the system may not make emergency calls automatically.
The system may also not make automatic emergency calls even if the airbag has
been inflated. If any of these should occur, please report to the Public Safety
Answering Point (PSAP) by operating the “SOS” button panel button.
●For safety, do not make the Emergency Call while driving.
Making calls during driving may cause mishandling of the steering wheel, which
may lead to unexpected accidents.
Stop the vehicle and confirm the safety of the area before making the Emergency
Call.
●When changing fuses, please use fuses that correspond to the described stan-
dard. If you use fuses other than those de scribed, it may cause ignition or smoke
in the circuit and may lead to a fire.
●Using the system while there is smoke or an unusual smell may cause a fire. Stop
using the system immediately and consult your Lexus dealer.

6-1. Maintenance and care
●Working from top to bottom, liberally apply water to the vehicle body,
wheel wells and underside of the vehi cle to remove any dirt and dust.
●Wash the vehicle body using a sponge or soft cloth, such as a chamois.
●For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thoroughly
with water.
●Wipe away any water.
●Wax the vehicle when the waterproof coating deteriorates.
If water does not bead on a clean surface, apply wax when the vehicle body is
cool.
■Self-restoring coat
The vehicle body has a self-restoring coating that is resistant to small surface
scratches caused in a car wash etc.
●The coating lasts for 5 to 8 years from when the vehicle is delivered from the plant.
●The restoration time differs depending on the depth of the scratch and outside
temperature.
The restoration time may become shorter when the coating is warmed by applying
warm water.
●Deep scratches caused by keys, coins, etc. cannot be restored.
●Do not use wax that contain abrasives.

■Automatic car washes
●Fold the mirrors before washing the vehicle. Start washing from the front of the
vehicle. Make sure to extend the mirrors before driving.
●Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and harm
your vehicle’s paint.
■High pressure car washes
●Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close proximity of the win-
dows and the air suspension unit (if equipped).
●Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle is closed
properly.
■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.
■Front side windows water-repellent coating
●The following precautions can extend the effectiveness of the water-repellent coat-
ing.
• Remove any dirt, etc. from the front 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 win-
dows.
• 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.
