Maintenance and care
Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner. Wipe dirty surfaces
with a cloth dampened with luke-
warm water.
If dirt cannot be removed, wipe it off
with a soft cloth dampened with
neutral detergent diluted to approx-
imately 1%.
Wring out any excess water from
the cloth and thoroughly wipe off
remaining traces of detergent and
water.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type
cleaners available. Use a sponge or brush
to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping cir-
cles. Do not use water. Wipe dirty surfaces
and let them dry. Excellent results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as
possible.
■Handling the seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water
using a cloth or spon ge. Also check the
belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying
or cuts.
■Front side windows with UV protective
coating (vehicles with UV protective
coating)
The front side windows have UV protective
coating. To prevent any damage to the UV
protective coating, observe the following:
●If the windows are dirty, gently wipe them with a cloth soaked in water or lukewarm
water as soon as possible.
●If the windows are very dirty, do not open
and close them repeatedly.
Cleaning and protecting the

Protecting the vehicle interior
WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehi-
cle.
Doing so may cause electrical compo-
nents, etc. to malfunction or catch fire.
●Do not get any of the SRS components
or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.
( P.30)
An electrical malfunction may cause
the airbags to deploy or not function
properly, resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Vehicles with wireless charger: Do not
let the wireless charger ( P.287) get
wet. Failure to do so may cause the
charger to become hot and cause
burns or could cause electric shock
resulting in death or serious injury.
■Cleaning the interior (especially
instrument panel)
Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner.
The instrument panel may reflect off the
windshield, obstructing the driver’s view
and leading to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■Cleaning detergents
●Do not use the following types of
detergent, as they may discolor the
vehicle interior or cause streaks or
damage to painted surfaces:
• Non-seat portions: Organic sub- stances such as benzene or gasoline,
alkaline or acidic solutions, dye, and
bleach

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.
■Cleaning the leather
Remove dirt and dust using a vac-
uum cleaner.
Wipe off any excess dirt and dust
with a soft cloth dampened with

■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
lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
( P.180)

Vehicle specifications
■Gasoline quality
In very few cases, driveability problems may
be caused by the brand of gasoline you are
using. If driveability problems persist, try
changing the brand of gasoline. If this does
not correct the problem, consult your Lexus
dealer.
■Recommendation of the use of gasoline
containing detergent additives
●Lexus recommends the use of gasoline
that contains detergent additives to avoid
the build-up of engine deposits.
●All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. contains
minimum detergent additives to clean
and/or keep clean intake systems, per
EPA’s lowest additive s concentration pro-
gram.
●Lexus strongly recommends the use of
Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. For more
information on Top Tier Detergent Gaso-
line and a list of marketers, please go to
the official websit e www.toptiergas.com.
■Recommendation of the use of low
emissions gasoline
Gasolines containing oxygenates such as
ethers and ethanol, as well as reformulated
gasolines, are available in some cities.
These fuels are typically acceptable for use,
providing they meet other fuel require-
ments. Lexus recommends these fuels, since the
formulations allow for reduced vehicle
emissions.
■Non-recommendation of the use of
blended gasoline
●Use only gasoline containing up to 15%
ethanol.
DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline
that could contain more than 15% etha-
nol, including from
any pump labeled
E30 (30% ethanol ), E50 (50% eth-
anol ), E85 (85% ethanol )
(which are only some examples of fuel
containing more than 15% ethanol).
●If you use gasohol in your vehicle, be sure
that it has an octane rating no lower than
87.
●Lexus does not recommend the use of
gasoline containing methanol.
■Non-recommendation of the use of gas-
oline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane enhanc-
ing additive called MMT (Methylcyclopen-
tadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Lexus does not recommend the use of gas-
oline that contains MMT. If fuel containing
MMT is used, your emission control system
may be adversely affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the
instrument cluster may come on. If this hap-
pens, contact your Lexus dealer for service.
■If your engine knocks
●Consult your Lexus dealer.
●You may occasionally notice light knock-
ing for a short time wh ile accelerating or
driving uphill. This is normal and there is
no need for concern.
Fuel information
You must only use unleaded gaso-
line.
Select octane rating 87 (Research
Octane Number 91) or higher. Use
of unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating lower than 87 may result in
engine knocking. Persistent knock-
ing can lead to engine damage.
At minimum, the gasoline you use
should meet the specifications of
ASTM D4814 in the U.S.A.
