Regular maintenance is essential
to obtaining the highest level of
performance, safety and reliability
from your Lexus. It can also enhance
your vehicle’s resale value. This section
of the
Warranty and Services Guide
is
designed to help you make sure your
vehicle receives proper and timely
maintenance. It includes factory
recommended maintenance guidelines
as well as logs in which to document
your vehicle’s maintenance history.
In addition to scheduled maintenance,
your Lexus requires ongoing
general maintenance such as fluid
checks and visual inspections. These
procedures are listed on pages 43–44
of this booklet and described in detail
in the “Maintenance” section of the
Owner’s Manual
.
it is especially important to check
your vehicle’s engine oil once a
month and to regularly replace
the engine oil and oil filter. Failure
to do so can cause oil starvation
and/or oil gelling, which can result
in severe damage to your vehicle
and require costly repairs that are
not covered by the new vehicle
Limited Warranty.
With proper maintenance and
care, your vehicle will last longer
and deliver more dependable,
economical performance. Follow
this booklet’s recommendations
and you’ll enjoy maximum reliability
and peace of mind from your
Lexus for many years to come.
