Maintenance and care
CAUTION
nReplacing light bulbs
lTurn off the headlights. Do not attempt to replace the bulb immediately after turn-
ing off the headlights.
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.
lDo not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. Hold the bulb by
the plastic or metal portion.
If the bulb is scratched or dropped it may blow out or crack.
lFully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failing to do so may
result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This may damage
the headlights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
lDo not attempt to take apart or repair the low beam headlight bulbs, connectors,
power supply circuits, or related components.
Doing so could result in electric shock and serious injury or death.
nDischarge headlights (if equipped)
lContact your Lexus dealer before replacing discharge headlights (including light
bulbs).
lDo not touch the high-intensity discharge headlight’s high voltage socket when
the headlights are turned on.
An extremely high voltage of 20000 V will be discharged and could result in
serious injury or death by electric shock.
nTo prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
nAvoiding a discharged battery
lTurn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
lTurn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running at a
low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic, etc.
CAUTION
nAvoiding battery fires or explosions
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flammable
gas that may be emitted from the battery.
lMake sure the jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that it is not
unintentionally in contact with any part other than the intended terminal.
lDo not allow the jumper cables to come into contact with the “+” and “-” termi-
nals.
lDo not allow open flame or use matches, cigarette lighters or smoke near the
battery.
Maintain the engine speed on the second vehicle and turn the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNITION ON mode,
then start the vehicle’s engine.
Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper
cables in the exact reverse order in which they were con-
nected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle checked at your Lexus dealer
as soon as possible.
