Scheduled Maintenance Log; Determining Your Maintenance Interval: Months Vs. Mileage; Special Operating Conditions - Lexus GS 450h Warranty And Services Manual

Determining Your
Maintenance Interval:
Months vs. Mileage
Lexus recommends obtaining
scheduled maintenance for your
vehicle every six months or 5,000
miles, whichever occurs first.
For example:
If at six months you have driven
•
less than 5,000 miles, you
should obtain maintenance
at six months; don't wait
until 5,000 miles.
If you drive 5,000 miles in less
•
than six months, you should obtain
maintenance at 5,000 miles;
don't wait until six months.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage
so that you obtain maintenance
when recommended. If you are
a low-mileage driver, mark your
calendar to remind yourself to obtain
maintenance every six months.
