Determining Your
Maintenance Interval:
Months vs. Mileage
Lexus recommends obtaining sched-
uled maintenance for your vehicle
every six months or 5,000 miles,
whichever occurs first.
For example: • If at six months you have driven
less than 5,000 miles, you
should obtain maintenance at six
months ; don’t wait until 5,000
miles.
• If you drive 5,000 miles in less
than six months, you should
obtain maintenance at 5,000
miles ; don’t wait until six months.
Be sure to keep an eye on your
mileage so that you obtain mainte-
nance when recommended. If you are
a low-mileage driver, mark your cal-
endar to remind yourself to obtain
maintenance every six months.

What are Lexus Personalized
Settings?
Your vehicle includes a variety of
electronic features that can be pro-
grammed to your preferences. For
example, doors can be programmed
to remain locked when you shift into
“Park.” (For more information, see the
“Customizable Features” section of
the Specifications chapter in your
Owner’s Manual .) Programming of
these features is performed once at
no charge, provided you obtain the
service at the 30-day/1,000-mile
scheduled maintenance service.
Programming of your Lexus Personal-
ized Settings requires special equip-
ment and may be performed only by
an authorized Lexus dealership. 30 Days or 1,000 Miles
