(→P. 4 7 0 )
Water can be used in an emer-
gency if coolant is unavailable.
Start the engine and turn the air conditioning system on to check
that the radiator cooling fans operate and to check for coolant
leaks from the radiator or hoses.
The fans operate when the air conditioning system is turned on immedi-
ately after a cold start. Confirm that the fans are operating by checking
the fan sound and air flow. If it is difficult to check these, turn the air con-
ditioning system on and off repeatedly.
(The fans may not operate in freezing temperatures.)
If the fans are not operating:
Stop the engine immediately and contact any authorized
Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
If the fans are operating:
Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest authorized Lexus
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
