BATTERY MAINTENANCE FOR

Models:
All Models & Model Years Through Current
Technical Service
Information Bulletin
September 12, 2002
PG009-02
A battery in a stored vehicle is subject to conditions that can reduce its performance and
life. These conditions include storage period, temperature, parasitic drain, and battery
load. Because of these factors, battery inspection and maintenance are required in
order to ensure proper operation and optimal battery life.
As a matter of policy, Lexus does not provide battery warranty coverage for discharged
and/or failed batteries due to lack of maintenance; it is the dealer's responsibility to
maintain the specified state of charge of the vehicle's battery while in stock and assure
proper state of charge at delivery.
To eliminate customer service concerns due to an undercharged battery during the first
few weeks of ownership, all dealers should check battery state of charge and
recharge, if necessary, just prior to delivery (i.e., within 48 hours of delivery).
This new procedure will improve the new vehicle ownership experience by greatly
reducing the risk of having a low performance battery concern due to extended storage
periods and/or short engine run times prior to the vehicle sale.
All models and model years through current.

NOTE:
The ªFast Battery Chargersº listed above have been tested and approved by Lexus.
These state±of±the±art ªsmartº chargers were designed to charge batteries at an
accelerated rate, without the possibility of damage. Using non±microprocessor
controlled battery chargers for fast charging purposes can damage the battery.
All vehicles are to be inspected according to the procedures listed below using the
MICROPRO 815 battery tester no more than 48 hours prior to customer vehicle delivery.
PRIOR TO TESTING:
If necessary, remove battery surface charge by turning on high beam headlights for 60
seconds, then let battery voltage recover for one minute.
1. Connect test clamps to battery.
(Display will show four zeros
indicating a good connection).
2. For cold battery (<32F) or after
charge test, press TEST MODE key
until appropriate test is selected.
3. Input battery stock number.
NOTE:
Stock number must be used for
warranty cases because you cannot
read the warranty code if CCA/CA
rating is input.
4. Press STK#/Code key to start test.
NOTE:
Stock numbers are listed on the
reference card located in the tester's
cover. Stock numbers can also be
referenced on TIS. The TIS listings
will always have up±to±date
information.

5. Read STATE OF CHARGE and
BATTERY CONDITION.
a. If battery is at 75% STATE OF
CHARGE or greater, release
vehicle to new owner.
b. If battery is less than 75%
STATE OF CHARGE proceed
to Battery Service Procedure.
Follow the procedures below according to the BATTERY CONDITION results.
BATTERY CONDITION: ªGood return to serviceº (less than 75% State of Charge)
Charge battery using one of the recommended chargers indicated above (or equivalent)
following the Quick Charge instructions accompanying that machine.
BATTERY CONDITION: ªCharge and return to serviceº
Charge battery using one of the recommended chargers indicated above (or equivalent)
following the Quick Charge instructions accompanying that machine.
BATTERY CONDITION: ªCharge and retestº
The battery must be Quick Charged and retested using the After charge test mode.
Carry out the service according to the result of the retest.
BATTERY CONDITION: ªReplaceº
The battery must be replaced. Press the STK#/CODE key to show the warranty code for
the repair order and for the Warranty Battery Label.
If a vehicle battery needs to be replaced
for a warrantable condition, make sure to
complete a Warranty Battery Label and
affix it to the failed battery for proper
warranty parts and claim processing.
Please include the Vehicle
Identification Number and warranty
code on the Warranty Battery Label.Inspection

In addition to this new pre±delivery battery test, a monthly battery inspection is still
required for stored vehicles. If your dealership is located in an area subject to extreme
temperatures (hot or cold), periodic maintenance may need to be performed more
frequently.
To reduce parasitic battery drain for vehicles in storage for one week or more, the
negative battery cable should always be disconnected to reduce battery discharge.
When the negative battery cable is reconnected, please check and reset electrical
components such as the clock, radio, etc.
NOTE:
For your reference, the electrical system is made inoperative by removing the
appropriate fuse indicated in the Electrical Wiring Diagram. Recom-
