BODY
630Check the interior of your vehicle. Water and dirt can
accumulate under the floor mats and could cause corrosion.
Occasionally check under the mats to make sure the area is
dry. Be particularly careful when transporting chemicals,
cleansers, fertilizers, salt, etc. These should be transported in
proper containers. If a spill or leak should occur, immediately
clean and dry the area.
Use mud shields on your wheels.
If you drive on salted or
gravel roads, mud shields help protect your vehicle. Full±size
shields, which come as near to the ground as possible, are the
best. We recommend that the fittings and the area where the
shields are installed be treated to resist corrosion. Your Lexus
dealer will be happy to assist in supplying and installing the
shields if they are recommended for your area.
Keep your vehicle in a well ventilated garage or a roofed
place. Do not park your vehicle in a damp, poorly
ventilated garage. If you wash your vehicle in the garage, or
if you drive it covered with water or snow, your garage may be
so damp as to cause corrosion. Even if your garage is heated,
a wet vehicle can corrode if the ventilation is poor.
WASHING AND WAXING
Washing your Lexus
Keep your vehicle clean by regular washing.
The following cases may cause weakness to the paint or
corrosion to the body and parts. Wash your vehicle as soon as
possible.

When driving in a coastal area

When driving on a road sprinkled with antifreeze

When exposed to coal tar, tree sap, bird droppings and
carcass of an insect

When driving in areas where there is a lot of smoke, soot,
dust, iron dust or chemical substances

When the vehicle becomes remarkably dirty with dust and
mud
Hand±washing your Lexus
Work in the shade and wait until the vehicle body is not hot
to the touch.
1. Rinse off loose dirt with a hose. Remove any mud or road
salt from the underside of the vehicle or in the wheel wells.
2. Wash with a mild car±wash soap, mixed according to the
manufacturer's instructions. Use a soft cotton mitt and keep it
wet by dipping it frequently into the wash water. Do not rub hard
Ð let the soap and water remove the dirt.
