■Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine Lexus parts be used for repairs to ensure performance
of each system. If non-Lexus parts are used in replacement or if a repair shop other than
a Lexus dealer performs repairs, confirm the warranty coverage.
■Resetting the message indicating maintenance is required (U.S.A. only)
After the required maintenance is preforme
d according to the maintenance schedule,
please reset the message.

Switch the display to the trip meter “A” ( →P. 84) when the hybrid system is operating.
Turn the power switch off.
While pressing the odometer/trip meter display change button ( →P. 84), turn the
power switch to ON mode (do not start the hybrid system because otherwise the reset

vice information. They are well informed about the operation of all systems on your
vehicle.
●Keep a copy of the repair order. It proves that the maintenance that has been per-
formed is under warranty coverage. If any problem should arise while your vehicle is
under warranty, your Lexus dealer will promptly take care of it.

nents contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and
birth defects and other reproductive harm. Work in a well ventilated area.
●Oils, fuels and fluids contained in vehicles as well as waste produced by component
wear contain or emit chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and
