GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE Maintaining Charge for 12-Volt Battery The following tips will help you keep your vehicle's 12-volt battery fully charged: • Drive vehicle at least weekly • Operate accessories with vehicle in "READY" mode • When parking, make sure doors and trunk are closed and lights are turned off Important Brake Information The GS 450h features high-friction front brake pads, which provide a higher coefficient of friction on the rotors for superior stopping performance and pedal feel. These brakes are designed for high-performance driving. Depending on your driving habits, you may experience more aggressive wear of the brake pads and rotors. The GS 450h also features an advanced, electronically controlled brake-by-wire system. This system controls both the regenerative braking system and the conventional hydraulic braking system. As a result, the brakes may feel different than those on a conventional vehicle. For additional information on your brakes and their operation, refer to your Owner's Manual.
