OTHER BENEFITS AND ASSISTANCE
training, equipment, quality and cus-
tomer satisfaction. These repair cen-
ters use Genuine Lexus Parts exclu-
sively in the repair of Lexus vehicles.
The Smart Key
Your Lexus vehicle was made with
two “Smart Keys” and an aluminum
key-number plate. Each Smart Key
includes an electronic main key that
has an integrated mechanical back-up
key. The electronic key controls the
remote-entry and theft-deterrent sys-
tems, enables the push-button start
switch and controls the engine immo-
bilizer. The mechanical key can be
removed from the electronic key and
used to operate the driver’s door lock,
the glove box lock and the trunk lock
(if equipped).
Replacing the Key
Your Lexus dealer can generate
replacement keys. Certain bonded/
registered locksmiths may also be
able to generate replacement keys.
When ordering a new key, bring all
keys for the vehicle to your dealer-
ship. If a Smart Key or the key-num-
ber plate is not available, a Lexus
dealer or certain locksmiths can
obtain the key code from a restricted-
access database. These businesses
can also access a service utility to
register the keys to the vehicle if all
registered keys have been lost.
If you lock your key in your vehicle
and do not have a spare, your dealer
can make a new mechanical key from
the code on the key-number plate.
Certain bonded/registered lock-
smiths may also be able to generate
a replacement mechanical key. If a
Lexus dealer is not available, please
refer to www.aloa.orgto find a bond-
ed/registered locksmith who per-
forms high-security key service.
Keeping the Key Safe
Replacing a Smart Key may be costly.
We advise you to keep a spare Smart
Key and the key-number plate in a
safe place. If you record the key num-
ber in more than one place, do not
record it in a way that can be easily
identified and associated with the
vehicle. For example, don’t leave the
number somewhere that can be
accessed by a valet. It is wise to keep
a copy of the key number outside of
the vehicle.

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
MAINTENANCE
Scheduled Maintenance Log70
Engine Coolant
When inspecting, visually check
the level of the engine coolant on the
see-through reservoir. Add coolant
as necessary. When replacing, drain
and flush the cooling system and refill
with coolant. Always use Genuine
Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant or
similar high-quality non-silicate,
nonamine, non-nitrate, non-borate
ethylene-glycol coolant with long-life
hybrid organic acid technology (i.e.,
a combination of low phosphates and
organic acids). A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Check the radiator and condenser
for blockage by leaves, dirt or insects
and clean if necessary. Also check
the hose connections for corrosion
and condition of installation.
Note:Initial replacement of engine
coolant is at 120 months/100,000
miles. Replace every 60 months/
50,000 miles thereafter.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Replace the oil filter and drain and
refill the engine oil at specified inter-
vals. SAE 0W-20 oil is the best
choice for good fuel economy and
good starting in cold weather. If SAE
0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20
may be used; however, it must be
replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next
oil change. See your Lexus dealer for
oil specifically formulated for your
vehicle’s engine. For instructions on
how to reset the reminder light, refer
to your Owner’s Manual.
Note:If you do the majority of your
driving under any of the special oper-
ating conditions indicated on page
44, you should replace the engine oil
and oil filter every six months or
5,000 miles, regardless of the oil
used or the certification of the vehicle.
Exhaust Pipes and Mountings
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration and damage. Start
the engine and listen carefully for
any exhaust leakage. Tighten connec-
tions and replace parts as necessary.
