GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE In addition to scheduled maintenance, your Lexus hybrid vehicle requires ongoing general maintenance such as fluid checks and visual inspections. The recommended guidelines for inspections are listed below. Please refer to the "Maintenance" section of the Owner's Manual for a detailed description of inspection procedures. After a Car Wash • Check installation of driver's floor mat Every Several Months If the vehicle is parked for a long time, the hybrid battery will discharge gradually. To keep the hybrid battery in good condition, drive the vehicle at least once every several months for at least 30 minutes or ten miles. If the hybrid battery becomes fully discharged and the vehicle will not start even with a jump-start to the 12-volt battery, contact your Lexus dealership. Every 30 Days • Check engine oil level using the dipstick • Visually check engine/inverter coolant level on the see-through reservoir • Visually check brake fluid level on the see-through reservoir • Check level of windshield washer fluid • Check installation of driver's floor mat • Check tire pressure • Check tires for damage and wear If You Run Out of Fuel Take all precautions to prevent the hybrid vehicle from running out of fuel. If you do run out of fuel, add fuel to the fuel tank before trying to restart the vehicle or continuing to drive. Introduction 45 MAINTENANCE
