LS500_OM_OM50F54U_(U) Remove dirt using a water-damp-
ened soft cloth or synthetic chamois.
Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture. ■
Cleaning the areas with satin-finish
metal accents
The metal areas use a layer of real metal for
the surface. It is necessary to clean them
regularly. If dirty area s are left uncleaned for
long periods of time, they may be difficult to
clean.
Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner.
Wipe off any excess dirt and dust
with a soft cloth dampened with
diluted detergent. Use a diluted water solution of approxi-
mately 5% neutral wool detergent.
Wring out any excess water from
the cloth and thoroughly wipe off all
remaining traces of detergent.
Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture. Allow the leather to dry in
a shaded and ventilated area. ■
Caring for leather areas
Lexus recommends cleani ng the interior of
the vehicle at least twice a year to maintain
the quality of the vehicle’s interior.NOTICE■
Preventing damage to leather sur-
faces
Observe the following precautions to
avoid damage to and deterioration of
leather surfaces: ●
Remove any dust or dirt from leather
surfaces immediately.●
Do not expose the vehicle to direct
sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, espe-
cially during summer.●
Do not place items made of vinyl, plas-
tic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather
surface if the vehicle interior heats up
significantly.■
Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.
Vehicle systems such as the audio system
may be damaged if water comes into
contact with electrical components such
as the audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may also
cause the body to rust. ■
When cleaning the inside of the wind-
shield
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the
camera sensor lens. Also, do not touch
the lens. ( → P.188, 195)
■
Cleaning the inside of the rear win-
dow●

rear window, as this may cause dam-
age to the rear window defogger

dampened with lukewarm water to
gently wipe the window clean. Wipe
