■

CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plas-

tic) part (if equipped)

●

As the CFRP parts may change color if

they are exposed to ultraviolet rays for

extended periods of time, Lexus recom-

mends that your vehicle be stored in a

place where it will not be exposed to

direct sunlight.

●

Do not use wax that contains abrasives.

●

Do not use automatic car washes as they

may scratch the CFRP parts and damage

the paint.

■

Self-restoring coat

The vehicle body has a self-restoring coat-

ing that is resistant to small surface

scratches caused in a car wash etc.

●

The coating lasts for 5 to 8 years from

when the vehicle is delivered from the

plant.

●

The restoration time differs depending on

the depth of the scratch and outside tem-

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 contain abrasives.

: CFRP parts (if equipped) do not have a

self-restoring coat.

■

Cleaning the areas with metal accents

Do not use baking soda (sodium bicarbon-

ate) and wax that contains abrasives.

■

Automatic car washes (vehicles without

CFRP parts)

●

Fold the mirrors before washing the vehi-

cle. Start washing from the front of the

vehicle. Make sure to extend the mirrors

before driving.

●

Wash the vehicle with the active rear

wing retracted. If the vehicle is washed

with the active rear wing raised, depend-

ing on the type of automatic car wash, the

brushes of the automatic car wash may

become stuck on the active rear wing. In

this case, the active rear wing may not be

washed very well or may even be

scratched or damaged.

●

Brushes used in automatic car washes

may scratch the vehicle surface, parts

(wheel, etc.) and damage the paint.

●

When it is necessary to set the engine

switch <power switch> to ACCESSORY

mode with the shift position held in N,

refer to P.166, 172.

■

High pressure car washes

As water may enter the cabin, do not bring

the nozzle tip near the gaps around the

doors or perimeter of the windows, or spray

these areas continuously.

Cleaning and protecting the
vehicle exterior

coating

●

The following precautions can extend the

effectiveness of the water-repellent coat-

ing.

• Remove any dirt, etc. from the front side

windows regularly.

• Do not allow dirt and dust to accumulate

on the windows for a long period.

Clean the windows with a soft, damp

cloth as soon as possible.

• Do not use wax or glass cleaners that

contain abrasives when cleaning the win-

dows.

follows:

●

Use a soft cloth dampened with an

approximately 5% solution of neutral

detergent and water to clean the dirt off.

●

Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to

remove any remaining moisture.

●

To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet

wipes or a similar product.

NOTICE

■

When using a high-pressure car wash

●

When washing the vehicle, do not let

water from the high-pressure washer

directly hit the camera, the area

around the camera or inside of the out-

side door handles. Due to the shock

from high-pressure water, it is possible

that the device may not operate nor-

mally.

●

Do not bring the nozzle tip close to

boots (rubber or resin manufactured

cover), connectors or the following

parts. The parts may be damaged if

they come into contact with high-pres-

sure water.
