MAINTENANCE BASICS MAINTENANCE IS ESSENTIAL Regular maintenance is essential to obtaining the highest level of performance, safety and reliability from your Lexus. It can also enhance your vehicle's resale value. It is especially important to check your vehicle's engine oil once a month and to regularly replace the engine oil and oil filter. Failure to do so can cause oil starvation and/or oil gelling, which can result in severe damage to your vehicle and require costly repairs that are not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Lexus recommends having maintenance for your vehicle performed by an authorized Lexus dealership. To locate your nearest authorized Lexus dealership, contact Lexus Customer Satisfaction at (800)255-3987 or visit www.lexus.com. DETERMINING YOUR MAINTENANCE INTERVAL: MONTHS VS. MILEAGE Lexus recommends obtaining maintenance for your vehicle every six months or 5,000 miles, whichever comes first. For example: • If at six months you have driven less than 5,000 miles, you should obtain maintenance at six months; don't wait until 5,000 miles. • If you drive 5,000 miles in less than six months, you should obtain maintenance at 5,000 miles; don't wait until six months. Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage so that you obtain maintenance when recommended. If you are a lowmileage driver, mark your calendar to remind yourself to obtain maintenance every six months. 2 Introduction
