Quality Control
You may have noticed a few miles
on the odometer when you took
delivery of your Lexus. This mileage
is a result of the comprehensive
process used to ensure the quality of
your vehicle. This process includes
ex tensive inspections during and
after production. The final inspection
takes place at the selling dealership
and includes a road-test conducted
by a trained Lexus technician.
If you’d like to know more about
Lexus quality-control procedures, ask
a Lexus dealership service consultant.
Vehicle Service History
When you have your vehicle serviced
at a Lexus dealership, your service
information is recorded in the Lexus
National Service History database.
This is the first database of its kind
in the automotive industry. It can be
accessed by any Lexus dealership in
the United States — a great conve-
nience if you relocate or need to have
your vehicle serviced while traveling.
Vehicle Service Agreements
If you plan to keep your vehicle for
several years or if you accumulate
mileage quickly, you may want to
purchase a Lexus vehicle service
agreement. These agreements cover the cost of specific repairs beyond
the factory warranty period. They
also cover services such as towing,
substitute transportation and lodging
to minimize your inconvenience
should your vehicle require repair.
Lexus vehicle service agreements
are available with a variety of
coverage options. A Lexus dealer-
ship sales consultant can help you
select the plan that’s best for you.
Body Repairs
If you’re involved in a collision, you
want your vehicle to be returned
to its pre-accident condition when
repaired. That’s why it is important to
make sure repairs are made only with
Genuine Lexus Parts. Some repair
shops and insurance companies may
suggest using imitation or salvaged
parts to save money. However,
these parts do not meet Lexus’ high
standards for quality, fit and corrosion
resistance. In addition, imitation and
salvaged parts (and any damage
or failures they may cause) are not
covered by any Lexus warranty.
The best way to ensure that your
vehicle is repaired with Genuine
Lexus Parts is to take it to a
Lexus dealership. Each dealer-
ship works with selected collision
repair centers that meet Lexus’

no abuse, neglect or improper
maintenance of your vehicle.
Your emission control system may
include parts such as the fuel
injection system, ignition system,
catalytic converter and engine
computer. Also included may be
hoses, belts, connectors and other
emissions-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists,
Lexus will repair your vehicle at no
cost to you, including diagnosis, parts

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE
MAINTENANCE
In addition to scheduled maintenance,
your Lexus requires ongoing general
maintenance such as fluid checks
and visual inspections. The recom-
mended guidelines for inspections
are listed below. Please refer to
the “Mainte nance” section of the
Owner’s Manual for a detailed
description of inspection procedures.
Every 30 Days
At least once every 30 days,
perform these inspections:
• Check engine oil level using
the dipstick
• Visually check engine
coolant level on the
see-through reservoir
• Visually check brake fluid level
on the see-through reservoir
• Visually check condition
of battery
• Check level of windshield
washer fluid
• Check tire pressure
• Check tires for damage
and wear
• Check installation of
driver’s floor mat
After a Car Wash
• Check installation of
driver’s floor mat
When Cleaning the Interior
• Remove dirt and dust with a
vacuum cleaner. Wipe dirty
surfaces with a soft cloth
dampened with warm water.
• When cleaning leather interior,
remove dirt and dust with a
vacuum cleaner. Using a
sponge, apply a small amount
of neutral wool detergent mixed
in water, rubbing in a circular
motion. Wipe off any excess
detergent and let leather dry
in an open-air location.
• When cleaning carpet, remove dirt
and dust with a vacuum cleaner.
Apply a foaming-type carpet
cleaner with a sponge or brush,
allowing cleaner to work for a few
minutes to loosen dirt. Continue by
rubbing carpet in a circular motion.
Wipe off any excess cleaner with
a clean cloth. If any dirt remains,
repeat process. Best results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as
dry as possible.
