4-2.Maintenance
Maintenance requirements
To ensure safe and economical driving, day-to-day care and regular mainte-
nance are essential. It is the owner's responsibility to perform regular checks.
Lexus recommends performing the following maintenance:
■
General maintenance
General maintenance should be performed on a daily basis. This can
be done by yourself or by a Lexus dealer.
■
Scheduled maintenance
Scheduled maintenance should be performed at specified intervals
according to the maintenance schedule.
For details about maintenance items and schedules, refer to the "Warranty
and Service Guide", "Owner' s Manual Supplement" or "Scheduled Mainte-
nance".
■
Do-it-yourself maintenance
You can perform some maintenance procedures by yourself.
Please be aware that do-it-yourself maintenance may affect warranty
coverage.
The use of Lexus repair manuals is recommended.
For details about warranty coverage, refer to the separate "Owner' s
Guide", "Warranty and Service Guide", "Owner' s Manual Supplement" or
"Warranty Booklet".
Repair and replacement
■
It is recommended that genuine Lexus parts be used for repairs to ensure perfor-
mance of each system. If non-Lexus parts are used in replacement or if a repair
shop other than a Lexus dealer performs repairs, confirm the warranty coverage.
Allow inspection and repairs to be performed by a Lexus dealer
■
Lexus technicians are well-trained specialists and are kept up to date with the
●
latest service information. They are well informed about the operation of all sys-
tems on your vehicle.
Keep a copy of the repair order. It proves that the maintenance that has been
●
performed is under warranty coverage. If any problem should arise while your
vehicle is under warranty, your Lexus dealer will promptly take care of it.
