If there is an overload in the circuits from the battery, the fuses are designed
to blow before the entire wiring harness is damaged.
NOTICE
Before replacing the fuses, have the cause of electrical overload
determined and repaired by your Lexus dealer.
CAUTION
Always use a genuine Lexus fuse or equivalent for
replacement. Never install an ordinary wire ± even for a
temporary fix. This may cause extensive damage and possibly
a fire.
ADDING WASHER FLUID
64E017±1
If the washer tank becomes nearly empty, add washer fluid.
You may use plain water as washer fluid. However, in cold areas where
temperatures range below the freezing point, use washer fluid containing
antifreeze. This product is available at your Lexus dealer and most auto parts
stores. Follow the manufacturer's directions for how much to mix with water.
NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any other substitute because it may
damage your vehicle's paint.
