3596-1. Maintenance and care
LS500_OM_(U)_1810 6
Maintenance and care ■
Brake caliper coating (F SPORT mod-
els)●
When using detergent, use neutral deter-
gent. Do not use hard brushes or abra-
sive cleaners, as they will damage the
coating.●
Do not use detergent on the brake cali-
pers when they are hot.●
Wash detergent off immediately after
use.■
Bumpers and side moldings
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners. ■
Front side windows water-repellent
coating (if equipped)●
The following precautions can extend the
effectiveness of the water-repellent coat-
ing.
• Remove any dirt, etc. from the front side
windows regularly.
• Do not allow dirt and dust to accumulate
on the windows for a long period.
Clean the windows with a soft, damp
cloth as soon as possible.
• Do not use wax or glass cleaners that
contain abrasives when cleaning the win-
dows.
• Do not use any metallic objects to
remove condensation build up.●
When the water-repellent performance
has become insufficie nt, the coating can
be repaired. Contact your Lexus dealer.■
Plated portions
If dirt cannot be removed, clean the parts as
follows: ●
Use a soft cloth dampened with an
approximately 5% solution of neutral
detergent and water to clean the dirt off.
●
Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to
remove any remaining moisture.
●
To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet
wipes or a similar product. WARNING■
When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of the
engine compartment. Doing so may
cause the electrical components, etc. to
catch fire. ■
When cleaning the windshield
Set the wiper switch to off.
If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wip-
ers may operate unexpectedly in the fol-
lowing situations, and may result in hands
being caught or other serious injuries
and cause damage to the wiper blades.
Off
AUTO ●
When the upper part of the windshield
where the raindrop sensor is located is
touched by hand
●
When a wet rag or similar is held close
to the raindrop sensor
●
If something bumps against the wind-
shield
●
If you directly touch the raindrop sen-
sor body or if something bumps into
the raindrop sensor
■
Precautions regarding the exhaust
pipes and rear bumper diffusers
Exhaust gases cause the exhaust pipes
and rear bumper diffusers to become
quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be careful not
to touch the pipes and diffusers until they
have cooled sufficiently, as touching hot
exhaust pipes and rear bumper diffusers
can cause burns. A
