CHECKING BATTERY CONDITION
Precautions
CAUTION
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
The battery produces flammable and explosive
hydrogen gas.
Do not cause a spark by contacting the battery
terminals with tools.
Do not smoke or light a match near the battery.
The electrolyte contains poisonous and corrosive
sulfuric acid.
Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothes.
Never inhale or swallow electrolyte.
Wear protective safety glasses when working near
the battery.
Keep children away from the battery.
EMERGENCY MEASURES
If electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush your eyes with
clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immediate
medical attention. If possible, continue to apply
water with a sponge or cloth while traveling to the
medical office.
If electrolyte gets on your skin, thoroughly wash the
contacted area. If you feel a pain or burn, get medical
attention immediately.
If electrolyte gets on your clothes, there is a
possibility of its soaking through to your skin, so
immediately take off the exposed clothing and follow
the procedure above, if necessary.
If you accidentally swallow electrolyte, drink a large
quantity of water or milk. Follow with milk of
magnesia, beaten raw egg or vegetable oil. Then go
immediately for emergency help.
Warning: Battery posts, terminals and related
accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer and reproductive harm. Wash hands after
handling.

64g104

Good
Blown
If the headlights or other electrical components do not
work and the blade type fuses are O.K., check the
cartridge type fuses. If any of the cartridge type fuses are
blown, they must be replaced.
If there is an overload in the circuits from the battery, the fuses
are designed to blow before the entire wiring harness is
damaged.
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.
NOTICE
Before replacing the fuses, have the cause of electrical
overload determined and repaired by your Lexus dealer.

ADDING WASHER FLUID
64G009
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.
CHECKING THE HEADLIGHT AIM
64G020d

1Beam angle gauge
(vertical movement for low beam)
2Beam angle gauge
(horizontal movement for low beam)
3Beam angle gauge
(vertical movement for high beam)
4Beam angle gauge
(horizontal movement for high beam)
Before checking the headlight aim:
1. Be sure that the body around the headlight is not deformed.
2. Park the vehicle on a level spot.
3. The driver gets into the driver's seat and puts the vehicle in
a state readying for a driving (with a full tank).
4. Bounce the vehicle several times.

Adjusting the headlight aiming (low beam)
64g059a

1Adjusting bolt A
2Adjusting bolt B
64G021b

1Bubble 2Acceptable range
Vertical movement gauge: The bubble of the gauge should
not deviate from the center of the gauge by more than 2 marks
to either side of the gauge.
If the bubble is out of the acceptable range of the beam angle
gauge, adjust it using bolt A and B.

64G022a

1Mark 2Acceptable range
Horizontal movement gauge: The mark should not deviate
by more than one mark to either side of the gauge.
It the edge of the lens is out of the acceptable range of the
beam angle gauge, adjust it using bolt B.
If the error is over the value specified above, take the vehicle
to your Lexus dealer to adjust the headlight aim.
After adjusting the headlight in the vertical direction, check that
the light has been shifted from the adjusted position in the
horizontal direction.
