Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen. Pour
warm water over the frozen area to me lt the ice. Wipe away the water imme-
diately to prevent it from freezing. ●
To ensure proper operation of the c limate control system fan, remove any

Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a sa fe distance between you and the vehicle
ahead, and drive at a reduced spee d suitable to road conditions.●
Park the vehicle and move the shift lever to P without setting the parking
brake. The parking brake may freeze up, preventing it from being released. If
the vehicle is parked without setting the parking brake, make sure to block the
wheels.
Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehicle to move
unexpectedly, possibly leading to an accident. ●

perature.
The restoration time may become shorter when the coating is warmed by applying
warm water. ●
Deep scratches caused by keys, coins, etc. cannot be restored. ●
Do not use wax that contains abrasives.

Store the emergency tire punctu re repair kit in the trunk.
The kit may be thrown around during sudden braking and so forth, damaging the kit. ●
Store the kit in its assigned place out of reach of children.●
Do not disassemble or modify the kit. Do not subject parts such as the air pressure
indicator to impacts. This may cause a malfunction. ■
To avoid damage to the tire pressu re warning valves and transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible. After use of liquid sealan t, make sure to repl ace the tire pressure
