4-2. Maintenance
To ensure safe and economical driving, day-to-day care and regular
maintenance is essential. Lexus recommends the following mainte-
nance.
Scheduled maintenance
Scheduled maintenance should be performed at specified
intervals according to the maintenance schedule.
For full details of your maintenance schedule, read the “Lexus
Service Booklet” or “Lexus Warranty Booklet”.
Do-it-yourself maintenance
What about do-it-yourself maintenance?
Many maintenance items are easy to do yourself if you have a lit-
tle mechanical ability and a few basic automotive tools.
Note, however, that some maintenance tasks require special tools
and skills. These are best performed by qualified technicians. Even
if you're an experienced do-it-yourself mechanic, we recommend
that repairs and maintenance be conducted by any authorized
Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional. Any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer will keep a
record of maintenance, which could be useful should you ever
require Warranty Service. Should you choose to select a qualified
and equipped professional other than an authorized Lexus repairer
