Battery: 12-Volt (Auxiliary Battery) - Lexus 2015 CT 200h Warranty And Services Manual

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE
• When cleaning carpet, remove
dirt and dust with a vacuum
cleaner. Apply a foaming-type
carpet cleaner with a sponge
or brush, allowing cleaner to
work for a few minutes to loosen
dirt. Continue by rubbing
carpet in a circular motion.
Wipe off any excess cleaner
with a clean cloth. If any dirt
remains, repeat process. Best
results are obtained by keeping
the carpet as dry as possible.
When Cleaning the Exterior
•
Working from top to bottom,
apply lots of low-pressure water
to the body, wheel wells and
underside of vehicle to remove
dirt and dust. Wash the vehicle
body using a soft sponge or
cotton cloth with mild car-wash
soap. Rinse off with water.
• If water does not bead on a clean
vehicle surface, apply car wax
using a soft cotton cloth when
the body of the vehicle is cool.
When Cleaning the Wheels
• Wait for hot wheels to cool
before getting wheels wet.
• Using a soft sponge or cotton
cloth, apply same mild car-wash
soap as used for the vehicle
body. Quickly rinse off with
water. Using a soft cotton
cloth, apply same car wax as
used for the vehicle body.
