Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off.
●
Do not top off the fuel tank.

the vehicle' s painted surface.
INFORMATION
■
Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline
To help prevent refueling with the incorrect fuel, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening
designed to only accommodate the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
■
If the malfunction indicator lamp illuminates
The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate erroneously if refueling is performed
repeatedly when the fuel tank is nearly full.
Close the fuel tank cap
After refueling, turn the fuel tank cap until you
hear a click.
Once the cap is released, it will turn slightly in the
opposite direction.
WARNING
If replacing the fuel tank cap, do not use anything but a genuine Lexus fuel tank cap
designed for your vehicle. Doing so may cause a fire.
