Maintenance requirements
■Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine Lexus parts be used for repair to ensure perfor-
mance of each system. If non-Lexus parts are used in replacement or if a repair 
sho
 p other than a Lexus dealer performs repairs, confirm the warranty coverage.
To ensure safe and economical drivin g, day-to-day care and regular main-
tenance is essential. It is the owne r
 ’s responsibility to perform regular 
checks. Lexus recommends the following maintenance.
■ General maintenance
Should be performed on a daily basis.  This can be done b
 y yourself 
or by a Lexus dealer.
■ Scheduled maintenance
Should be performed at specified  inter
 vals according to the mainte -
nance schedule.
For details about maintenance items and schedules, refer to the “War -
ranty and Services Guide/Owner’ s Manual Supple

■ Do-it-yourself maintenance
You can perform some maintenance procedures yourself.

 fect war-
ranty coverage.
The use of Lexus Repair Manuals are recommended.
