DRIVING TIPS
270
Do not continue normal driving when the brakes are
wet. If they are wet, your vehicle will require a longer
stopping distance, and it may pull to one side when
the brakes are applied. Also, the parking brake will
not hold the vehicle securely.WINTER DRIVING TIPS
Make sure your coolant is properly protected against
freezing.
Only use ªToyota Super Long Life Coolantº or similar high
quality ethylene glycol based non±silicate, non±amine,
non±nitrite, and non±borate coolant with long±life hybrid
organic acid technology. (Coolant with long±life hybrid organic
acid technology is a combination of low phosphates and
organic acids.)
See ªChecking the engine coolant levelº on page 337 for
details of coolant type selection.
For the U.S.A.ЪToyota Super Long Life Coolantº is a mixture
of 50% coolant and 50% deionized water. This coolant
provides protection down to about ±35 C (±31F).
For CanadaЪToyota Super Long Life Coolantº is a mixture of
55% coolant and 45% deionized water. This coolant provides
protection down to about ±42 C (±44F).
NOTICE
Do not use plain water alone.
Check the condition of the battery and cables.
Cold temperatures reduce the capacity of any battery, so it
must be in top shape to provide enough power for winter
starting. Page 380 tells you how to visually inspect the battery.
Your Lexus dealer and most service stations will be pleased to
check the battery charge level.
