Maintenance and care
CAUTION
■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after turning
off the lights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of the li ght bulb with bare hands. When it is
unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a clean dry cloth to avoid
getting moisture and oils on the bulb.
Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so may
result in heat damage, fire, or water en tering the headlight unit. This may damage
the headlights or cause condensati on to build up on the lens.
■Discharge headlights (if equipped)
●Contact your Lexus dealer before replacing the discharge he adlights (including
light bulbs).
●Do not touch the discharge headlight’s high voltage socket when the headlights
are turned on.
An extremely high voltage of 25000 V will be discharged and could result in
death or serious injury by electric shock.
●Do not attempt to take apart or repair the headlight bulbs, connectors, power
supply circuits, or related components.
Doing so could result in electric shock and death or serious injury.
■To prevent damage or fire
●Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.
●Check the wattage of the bulb before installing to prevent heat damage.

sive stress on the eyelet, cables or chains. The towing eyelet, cables or chains may
become damaged, broken debris may hit people and cause serious damage.
●Do not turn the “START STOP ENGINE” <“POWER”> switch off.

Gasoline vehicles: Be sure to transport the
vehicle with the front wheels raised or with all
four wheels raised off the ground.
If the vehicle is towed with the front wheels
contacting the ground, the drivetrain and
related parts may be damaged.
Hybrid vehicles: Be sure to transport the
vehicle with the front wheels raised or with all
four wheels raised off the ground. If the vehi-
cle is towed with the front wheels contacting
the ground, the drivetrain and related parts
may be damaged or electricity generated by
