AUTHORIZED

DEALERSHIP

MAINTENANCE AND

REPAIRS

Your NX 300h is a gas/electric hybrid

vehicle that has both high-voltage DC

and AC systems as well as a 12-volt

system. Both DC and AC high voltage

are very dangerous and can cause

personal injury, severe burns, electric

shock and even fatal injury unless

appropriate precautions are taken.

To avoid personal injury, please

follow all caution labels attached

to high-voltage parts. Do not touch

or attempt to remove or replace

any high-voltage (orange-colored)

wiring and connectors.

If an accident occurs, do not touch

any high-voltage wiring, connectors

or parts such as the inverter under the

hood or the hybrid battery assembly

under the rear seat.

Do not touch the potassium hydroxide

electrolyte that might spill or leak from

the hybrid battery as the result of an

accident. If potassium hydroxide

electrolyte gets on your skin or in

your eyes, neutralize it immediately

with a saturated boric acid solution

(ratio: 80 grams boric acid to

two liters water). Seek immediate

medical attention.

If a vehicle fire occurs, extinguish

it with a Class D powder-type

fire extinguisher.

7Other Benefits and Assistance

AMENITIES

Quality Control

You may have noticed a few miles

on the odometer when you took

delivery of your Lexus. This mileage

is a result of the comprehensive

process used to ensure the quality of

your vehicle. This process includes

ex tensive inspections during and

after production. The final inspection

takes place at the selling dealership

and includes a road-test conducted

by a trained Lexus technician.

If you’d like to know more about Lexus

quality-control procedures, ask a

Lexus dealership service consultant.

Vehicle Service History

When you have your vehicle serviced

at a Lexus dealership, your service

information is recorded in the Lexus

National Service History database.

This is the first database of its kind

in the automotive industry. It can be

accessed by any Lexus dealership

in the United States — a great

convenience if you relocate or need

to have your vehicle serviced

while traveling.

Vehicle Service Agreements

If you plan to keep your vehicle for

several years or if you accumulate

mileage quickly, you may want to

purchase a Lexus vehicle service

agreement. These agreements cover

the cost of specific repairs beyond

the factory warranty period. They

also cover services such as towing,

substitute transportation and lodging

to minimize your inconvenience

should your vehicle require repair.

Lexus vehicle service agreements are

available with a variety of coverage

options. A Lexus dealership sales

consultant can help you select the

plan that’s best for you.

Body Repairs

If you’re involved in a collision, you

want your vehicle to be returned

to its pre-accident condition when

repaired. That’s why it is important to

make sure repairs are made only with

Genuine Lexus Parts. Some repair

shops and insurance companies may

suggest using imitation or salvaged

parts to save money. However,

these parts do not meet Lexus’ high

standards for quality, fit and corrosion

resistance. In addition, imitation and

salvaged parts (and any damage

or failures they may cause) are not

covered by any Lexus warranty.

OTHER BENEFITS AND ASSISTANCE

8Other Benefits and Assistance

AMENITIES

The best way to ensure that your

vehicle is repaired with Genuine Lexus

Parts is to take it to a Lexus dealership.

Each dealership works with selected

collision repair centers that meet

Lexus’ strict requirements for training,

equipment, quality and customer

satisfaction. These repair centers

use Genuine Lexus Parts exclusively

in the repair of Lexus vehicles.

The Smart Key

Your Lexus vehicle was made with

two “Smart Keys” and an aluminum

key-number plate. Each Smart Key

includes an electronic main key that

has an integrated mechanical backup

key. The electronic key controls the

remote-entry and theft-deterrent

systems, enables the push-button

start switch and controls the engine

immobilizer. The mechanical key

can be removed from the electronic

key and used to operate the driver’s

door lock, the glove box lock and

the trunk lock (if equipped).

Replacing the Key

Your Lexus dealer can generate

replacement keys. Certain bonded/

registered locksmiths may also be

able to generate replacement keys.

When ordering a new key, bring all

keys for the vehicle to your dealership.

If a Smart Key or the key-number

plate is not available, a Lexus dealer

or certain locksmiths can obtain the

key code from a restricted-access

database. These businesses can also

access a service utility to register the

keys to the vehicle if all registered

keys have been lost.

If you lock your key in your vehicle

and do not have a spare, your dealer

can make a new mechanical key

from the code on the key-number

plate. Certain bonded/registered

locksmiths may also be able to

generate a replacement mechanical

key. If a Lexus dealer is not available,

please refer to www.aloa.org to find

a bonded/registered locksmith who

performs high-security key service.

Keeping the Key Safe

Replacing a Smart Key may be costly.

We advise you to keep a spare

Smart Key and the key-number

plate in a safe place. If you record the

key number in more than one place,

do not record it in a way that can be

easily identified and associated with

the vehicle. For example, don’t leave

the number somewhere that can be

accessed by a valet. It is wise to keep

a copy of the key number outside

of the vehicle.

Important: You must use NCDS

NCDS Arbitration

What is the Dispute

Settlement Program?

This program consists of local

professionals who are trained

and experienced in arbitration.

The arbitrator(s) appointed by

NCDS will arbitrate your case by

reviewing the facts you present;

having the vehicle inspected, if

necessary; and promptly rendering

a fair and equitable decision.

How much will it cost?

The service is provided at no cost

to you. It is part of Lexus’ effort to

promptly and equitably resolve

your concerns. The decision-maker

is an impartial third party. The

decision of the arbitrator(s) is

binding on Lexus but not on you.

IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE

11Introduction

WARR ANT Y

What types of disputes

are eligible?

NCDS resolves disputes involving

Lexus product reliability and warranty

performance that arise during the

greater of 1) four years or 50,000

miles from the vehicle’s in-service

date, whichever is earlier; or 2) the

appli cable provision of the Lexus

New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

However, NCDS will not arbitrate

1) claims involving a vehicle used

primarily for commercial purposes

unless the Lemon Laws of your

state cover vehicles used for

commercial purposes; or 2) claims

that an air bag failed to deploy or

deployed when it should not have;

or 3) disputes regarding fires and/or

accidents and/or theft. Since there

are other additional exclusions,

please contact NCDS for further

information on eligibility guidelines.

You must file a request for arbitration

with NCDS within six months of

the expiration of the eligibility

period, provided the concern or

alleged defect was brought to the

attention of Lexus or one of its

dealers during the eligibility period.

How long is the

arbitration process?

The entire process — from the time

NCDS receives your request for

arbitration to the arbitrator’s decision —

is designed to take no more than

40 days. A decision may be delayed if:

• You fail to provide certain

information required by NCDS.

• You fail to make your vehicle

available for inspection by

NCDS in a timely manner

(if an inspection is required).

How do I request arbitration?

To initiate arbitration, you must

complete an NCDS customer claim

form and mail it to NCDS. A claim

form is included in the Lemon Law

Guide located in your vehicle, or

you may request a form by calling

NCDS at (866) 272-4872. When

you call, please have ready your

vehicle identification number

(VIN), the names of your selling

and servicing dealerships, and the

current mileage on your Lexus.

Mt. Clemens, MI 48046

Upon receipt of your request, NCDS

additional details about the program.

How does the arbitration

process work?

When NCDS receives your request,

it will be forwarded to the Lexus area

office for response.

At the request of either party or the

arbitrators, NCDS may schedule a

technical inspection. This may include

an inspection of the vehicle by an

independent tech nical expert with

a Lexus representative present. The

technical expert will forward his or

her evaluation to NCDS.

An oral hearing will be held prior

to a decision being rendered. At

this hearing, all relevant evidence

is admissible. You and a Lexus

representative will present both

sides of the case to the NCDS

arbitrator(s). You will each be

given an equal opportunity to give

testimony and provide documents.

Then you will each be given an

opportunity for rebuttal. After

considering all testimony and

documents, the arbitrator(s)

WHAT IS COVERED

AND HOW LONG

Emission Defect Warranty

Lexus warrants that your vehicle:

• Was designed, built and

equipped to conform at the

time of sale with applicable

federal emissions standards.

• Is free from defects in materials

and workmanship that may

cause the vehicle to fail to

meet these standards.

Federal regulations require that this

warranty be in effect for two years

or 24,000 miles from the vehicle’s

in-service date, whichever occurs

first. However, under the terms of

the Basic Warranty, Lexus provides

coverage of four years or 50,000

miles, which ever occurs first. Specific

components may have longer

coverage under the terms of the

Powertrain Warranty. Additionally,

components marked “8/80” in

the parts list on pages 23–24 have

coverage of eight years or 80,000

miles, whichever occurs first.

Emission Performance

Warranty

Some states and localities have

established vehicle inspection

and maintenance (I/M) programs

to encourage proper vehicle

maintenance. If an EPA-approved

I/M program is in force in your

area, you are eligible for Emission

Performance Warranty coverage.

Under the terms of the Emission

Performance Warranty and

federal regulations, Lexus will

make all nec essary repairs if

both of the following occur:

• Your vehicle fails to meet

applicable emissions

standards as determined by an

EPA-approved emissions test.

• This failure results or will result

in some penalty to you — such

as a fine or denial of the right

to use your vehicle — under

local, state or federal law.

This warranty is in effect for two years

or 24,000 miles from the vehicle’s

in-service date, whichever occurs

first. Additionally, components

marked “8/80” in the parts list on

pages 23–24 have coverage of eight

years or 80,000 miles, whichever

occurs first.

MAINTENANCE

You are responsible for performance

of the required maintenance indicated

in the Owner’s Manual and this guide.

Lexus will not deny a warranty claim

solely because you do not have

records to show that you maintained

your vehicle. However, any failure

or noncompliance caused by lack

of maintenance is not covered by

this warranty.

When maintenance and repairs

are paid for by you, these services

may be performed by you or by

any automotive service provider

you choose. Lexus will not deny

a warranty claim solely because

you used a service provider

other than a Lexus dealership for

maintenance and repairs. However,

any failure or noncompliance caused

by improper maintenance or repairs

is not covered by this warranty.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

To ensure optimum performance

and maintain the quality built into

your vehicle’s emission control

systems, Lexus recommends the

use of Genuine Lexus Parts when

servicing or repairing the systems.

Warranty coverage is not dependent

upon the use of any particular brand

of replacement parts and you may

elect to use non-Genuine Lexus

Parts for maintenance and repairs.

However, use of replacement

parts that are not equivalent in

quality to Genuine Lexus Parts

may impair the effectiveness of

the emission control systems.

If you use replacement parts that

have maintenance or replacement

schedules different from those of

Genuine Lexus Parts, you must follow

the maintenance and replacement

schedules for the parts you are using.

In addition, you should ensure that

such parts are warranted by their

manufacturers to be equivalent to

Genuine Lexus Parts.

report. Also, take your maintenance

records in case they are needed.

If your claim qualifies for coverage,

the dealership will repair your vehicle

within 30 days (unless a shorter

period is required by law). If your

claim is denied, Lexus will notify you

in writing of the reason within the

same period. If we fail to do so, we

will repair your vehicle free of

INFORMATION

You are responsible for ensuring

that your Lexus is operated and

maintained according to the

instructions in the Owner’s Manual

and the “Maintenance Information”

section of this guide.

You should keep detailed records

of vehicle maintenance, since under

some circumstances they may be

required for warranty coverage.

These records should include date

of service, mileage at time of

service and a description of service

performed and/or parts installed.

For your convenience, maintenance

logs are included in the “Maintenance

Information” section of this guide.

If you sell your vehicle, you should

give your maintenance records to

the new owner.

Lexus will not deny a warranty

claim solely because you do not

have records to show that you

maintained your vehicle. However,

damage or failures caused by

lack of proper maintenance are

not covered under warranty.

WHERE TO GO

FOR MAINTENANCE

You may have maintenance

performed on your vehicle by

any qualified person or facility.

However, Lexus recommends

having maintenance performed by

an authorized Lexus dealership.

Lexus dealership technicians are

specially trained to maintain and

repair Lexus vehicles. They stay

current on the latest service

information through Lexus technical

bulletins, service publications

and training courses. Many are

also certified through the Lexus

Commitment to Perfection

Certifica tion Program, which

requires specialized, state-of-the-art

training as well as rigorous exams

through both Lexus and the

National Institute for Automotive

Service Excellence.

You can be confident you’re getting

the best possible service for your

vehicle when you take it to a Lexus

dealership. Plus, a Lexus dealership

will always use Genuine Lexus Parts

designed specifically for your vehicle.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

Warranty coverage is not dependent

Lexus Parts when you need to replace

a part on your vehicle. Like all Lexus

products, Genuine Lexus Parts are

built to the highest standards of

quality, durability and performance.

They are also designed to fit your

vehicle’s exact specifications.

Your Lexus dealership maintains

an extensive inventory of Genuine

Lexus Parts to meet your vehicle

service needs. And because it

is linked electronically to Lexus

Parts Distribution Centers, the

dealership has quick access to any

parts it may not have in stock.

Genuine Lexus Parts are covered

by their own warranty (see your

of any applicable New Vehicle

is longer. Non-Genuine Lexus

Parts, or any damage or failures

resulting from their use, are not

your nearest Lexus dealership for

towing assistance. You do not have

to pay for towing to the nearest Lexus

due to failure of a warranted part.

Outside the United States,

U.S. Territories and Canada

If you are using your vehicle outside

the United States, U.S. territories and

Canada and need warranty service,

contact a local Lexus dealership.

Please note, however, that your

vehicle may not be repaired free

of charge because the local Lexus

distributor may have no obligation

to provide warranty service for your

vehicle, and/or your vehicle may

not comply with local regulatory

or environmental requirements.

EMERGENCY REPAIRS

Lexus recommends having

maintenance and repairs for

your NX 300h performed by

an authorized Lexus dealership.

To locate your nearest authorized

Lexus dealership, log on to

www.lexus.com or contact

Lexus Customer Satisfaction

at (800) 255-3987.

Maintenance and repairs not

performed by an authorized

Lexus dealership should be

performed by a qualified

technician following procedures

in Lexus service and repair

publications.

Please refer to the important

safety precautions found on

the inside front cover

of this booklet.

If your vehicle is inoperable or

unsafe to drive and there is no Lexus

dealership reasonably available

to make repairs, you may perform

the repairs yourself or have them

performed by another automotive

service provider. Lexus will reimburse

you for any of the repairs that are

MAINTENANCE

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. This

section of the Warranty and Services

Guide is designed to help you

make sure your vehicle receives

proper and timely maintenance.

It includes factory-recommended

maintenance guidelines as well as

logs in which to document your

vehicle’s maintenance history.

In addition to scheduled maintenance,

your Lexus requires ongoing general

maintenance such as fluid checks and

visual inspections. These procedures are

listed on pages 42–43 of this booklet and

described in detail in the “Maintenance”

section of the Owner’s Manual.

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.

With proper maintenance and care,

your vehicle will last longer and

deliver more dependable, economical

performance. Follow this booklet’s

recommendations and you’ll enjoy

maximum reliability and peace of

mind from your Lexus for many

years to come.

THE IMPORTANCE OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE

40 Introduction

MAINTENANCE

Maintaining your vehicle according

to the recommendations in this

booklet is required to ensure that your

warranty coverage remains intact.

You should keep detailed records

of vehicle maintenance, including

date of service, mileage at time of

service and a description of service

and/or parts installation performed.

The maintenance logs in this booklet

are a good place to record this

information. If you sell your vehicle,

be sure to give your maintenance

records to the new owner.

Lexus will not deny a warranty

claim solely because you do not

have records to show that you

maintained your vehicle. However,

damage or failures caused by

lack of proper maintenance are

not covered under warranty.

Maintenance and repair services

may be performed by you or by

any automotive service provider

you choose. Lexus will not deny

a warranty claim solely because

you used a service provider

other than a Lexus dealership

for maintenance and repairs.

However, damage or failures caused

by improper maintenance or repairs

are not covered under warranty.

Your dealer may recommend more

frequent maintenance intervals or

more maintenance services than

those listed in the scheduled

maintenance log. These additional

services are not required to maintain

your warranty coverage. Ask your

dealer for an explanation of any

recommended maintenance

not included in the scheduled

maintenance log.

Lexus warranty coverages, see

MAINTENANCE AND LEXUS WARRANTY COVERAGE

41Introduction

MAINTENANCE

To ensure that your vehicle receives

first-quality service and factory-

authorized parts, Lexus recommends

having maintenance performed by

an authorized Lexus dealership. To

locate your nearest authorized Lexus

dealership, log on to www.lexus.

com or contact Lexus Customer

Satisfac tion at (800) 255-3987.

Lexus dealership technicians are

experts in the maintenance and repair

of Lexus vehicles. They stay current

on the latest service information

through Lexus technical bulletins,

service publications and training

courses. Many are also certified

through the Lexus Commitment to

Perfection Certification Program,

which requires specialized,

state-of-the-art training as well

as rigorous exams through both

Lexus and the National Institute for

Automotive Service Excellence.

Additionally, when you have your

vehicle serviced at a Lexus dealership,

your service information is recorded

in the Lexus National Service History

database. This is the first database of

its kind in the automotive industry. It can

be accessed by any Lexus dealership

in the U.S. — a great convenience if

you relocate or need to have your

vehicle serviced while traveling.

You can be confident you’re

getting the best possible service

for your vehicle when you take it

to a Lexus dealership. Don’t trust

your investment to anything less

than a team of Lexus specialists.

Maintenance and repairs not

performed by an authorized

Lexus dealership should be

performed by a qualified

technician following procedures

in Lexus service and repair

publications.

Please refer to the important

safety precautions found on

the inside front cover

of this booklet.

LEXUS DEALERSHIP SERVICE

42 Introduction

MAINTENANCE

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 “Mainte nance” section

of the Owner’s Manual for a detailed

description of inspection procedures.

Every 30 Days

At least once every 30 days,

perform these inspections:

• 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 tire pressure

• Check tires for damage

and wear

• Check installation of driver’s

floor mat

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.

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.

When Cleaning the Interior

• Remove dirt and dust with a

vacuum cleaner. Wipe dirty

surfaces with a soft cloth

dampened with warm water.

• When cleaning leather interior,

remove dirt and dust with a vacuum

cleaner. Using a sponge, apply

a small amount of neutral wool

detergent mixed in water, rubbing

in a circular motion. Wipe off any

excess detergent and let leather

dry in an open-air location.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE

43Introduction

MAINTENANCE

• When cleaning carpet, remove

dirt and dust with a vacuum

cleaner. Apply a foaming-type

carpet cleaner with a sponge or

brush, allowing cleaner to work

for a few minutes to loosen dirt.

Continue by rubbing carpet in

a circular motion. Wipe off

any excess cleaner with a

clean cloth. If any dirt remains,

repeat process. Best results

are obtained by keeping the

carpet as dry as possible.

When Cleaning the Exterior

• Working from top to bottom,

apply lots of low-pressure water

to the body, wheel wells and

underside of vehicle to remove

dirt and dust. Wash the vehicle

body using a soft sponge or

cotton cloth with mild car-wash

soap. Rinse off with water.

• If water does not bead on a clean

vehicle surface, apply car wax

using a soft cotton cloth when

the body of the vehicle is cool.

When Cleaning the Wheels

• Wait for hot wheels to cool

before getting wheels wet.

• Using a soft sponge or cotton

cloth, apply same mild car-wash

soap as used for the vehicle

body. Quickly rinse off with

water. Using a soft cotton

cloth, apply same car wax as

used for the vehicle body.

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

GENERAL MAINTENANCE AND REGULAR USE

MAINTENANCE

44 Scheduled Maintenance Log

Determining Your

Maintenance Interval:

Months vs. Mileage

Lexus recommends obtaining

scheduled maintenance for your

vehicle every six months or 5,000

miles, whichever occurs 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 low-mileage

driver, mark your calendar to remind

yourself to obtain maintenance every

six months.

Special Operating

Conditions

In addition to standard maintenance

items, vehicles that are driven

under special operating conditions

require further maintenance

service. These special operating

conditions, which put added

demands on a vehicle, include:

• Driving on dirt roads or on

dusty roads

• Repeated trips of less than

five miles in temperatures

below 32° F or 0° C

• Extensive idling and/or

low-speed driving for long

distances, such as police, taxi

or door-to-door delivery use

• Towing. Not all vehicles are

designed for towing. Please

refer to the Owner’s Manual

for details.

If you drive primarily under any

of the conditions noted, you

should replace the engine oil

and oil filter every six months

or 5,000 miles. Even when the

oil maintenance reminder does

not appear. Some of these

special operating conditions

require other maintenance

items; these items are indicated

in each maintenance chart.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE LOG

If you drive only occasionally under

any of the special operating conditions

noted, it is not necessary to change the

oil every six months or 5,000 miles

or to perform the additional services

listed in the charts. This added

drive primarily under any of the

special operating conditions.

MAINTENANCE

68 Scheduled Maintenance Log

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS

The following descriptions are

provided to give you a better

understanding of the maintenance

services that should be performed

on your vehicle. The scheduled

maintenance log indicates at

which time/mileage intervals each

service should be performed.

Please note that many maintenance

services should be performed

only by a qualified technician.

For further information on

maintenance services that

you can perform yourself,

see the maintenance sections

of your Owner’s Manual.

Axle Shaft Boots

Check the axle shaft boots and

clamps for cracks, deterioration

and damage. Replace any damaged

parts and, if necessary, repack

the grease. A qualified technician

should perform these operations.

Ball Joints and Dust Covers

Check the suspension and steering

linkage ball joints for looseness and

damage. Check all dust covers for

deterioration and damage. A

qualified technician should perform

these inspections.

Battery: 12-Volt

(Auxiliary Battery)

The original-equipment 12-volt

battery, located on the left side of

the cargo compartment, is a sealed,

maintenance-free special-application

battery that is different from a

conventional automotive battery.

Replacement batteries are available

from your Lexus dealership.

Battery: Hybrid

(Traction Battery)

The hybrid battery is a NiMH (nickel

metal hydride) compact, high-output

battery. This battery does not require

regular maintenance. However, 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 10 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.

Any repairs to the hybrid battery or

hybrid system should be performed

by a qualified technician following

procedures in Lexus service and

repair publications. Please refer to

the important safety precautions on

the inside front cover of this booklet.

69Scheduled Maintenance Log

MAINTENANCE

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS

in your Owner’s Manual. A qualified

technician should perform this

operation.

Brake Lines and Hoses

Visually inspect for proper installation.

Check for chafing, cracks, deterioration

and signs of leakage. Replace any

deteriorated or damaged parts. A

qualified technician should perform

these operations.

Brake Pads, Calipers and Rotors

Check brake pads and rotors for

excessive wear; check brake rotors

for runout. Check brake calipers for

fluid leakage. A qualified technician

should perform these inspections.

Cabin Air Filter

Replace at specified intervals.

More frequent replacement may

be required when driving in dusty

conditions, heavy traffic areas,

urban areas, desert areas or dirt

roads. Refer to your Owner’s

Manual for service details.

Drive Belt

Inspect for cracks, excessive

wear and oiliness. Check the belt

tension and adjust if necessary.

Replace the belt if it is damaged.

Driver’s Floor Mat

• Only use the driver’s floor

mat de signed specifically

for the model and model

year of your vehicle, such as

Lexus Genuine floor mats.

• Always properly secure

the driver’s floor mat using

the retaining hooks.

• Never install another floor

mat on top of the existing

driver’s floor mat.

• Never install the driver’s

floor mat upside down.

Engine Air Filter

Check for excessive dirt, damage

and oiliness. Replace if necessary.

MAINTENANCE

70 Scheduled Maintenance Log

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS

Engine and Inverter Coolants

When inspecting, visually check

the level of the engine and inverter

coolants on the see-through reservoirs.

Add coolant as necessary. When

replacing, drain the cooling system

and refill with coolant. Always use

Genuine Toyota Super Long-Life

Coolant or similar high-quality

non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrate,

non-borate ethylene-glycol coolant

with long-life hybrid organic acid

technology (i.e., a combination of

low phosphates and organic acids).

A qualified technician should perform

these operations. Please refer to the

important safety precautions on the

inside front cover of this booklet.

Check the radiator and condenser

for blockage by leaves, dirt or insects

and clean if necessary. Also check

the hose connections for corrosion

and condition of installation.

Note: Initial replacement of engine

coolant is at 120 months/100,000

miles. Replace every 60 months/

50,000 miles thereafter. Initial

replacement of inverter coolant is

at 180 months/150,000 miles.

Replace every 60 months/

50,000 miles thereafter.

Engine Oil and Oil Filter

Replace the engine oil and oil filter

every 12 months or 10,000 miles, or

when the oil maintenance reminder

appears, whichever comes first.

SAE 0W-20 oil is the best choice

for good fuel economy and good

starting in cold weather. If SAE 0W-20

is not available, SAE 5W-20 may be

used; however, it must be replaced

with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil

change. See your Lexus dealer

for oil specifically formulated for

your vehicle’s engine.

Your vehicle is equipped with a

replaceable oil-filter element and

oil-filter cap O-ring; replace both

at each oil change. For instructions

on how to reset the reminder light,

refer to your Owner’s Manual.

Note: If you do the majority of your

driving under any of the special

operating conditions indicated on

page 44, you should replace the

engine oil and oil filter every six

months or 5,000 miles, regardless

of the oil used or the certification

of the vehicle.

Engine Valve Clearance

This engine has hydraulic valve

adjusters that require no periodic

clearance inspection or adjustment.

71Scheduled Maintenance Log

MAINTENANCE

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS

Exhaust Pipes and Mountings

Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,

muffler and hangers for cracks,

deterioration and damage. Start the

engine and listen carefully for any

exhaust leakage. Tighten connections

and replace parts as necessary.

Fuel Lines and Connections,

Fuel Tank Band and Fuel Tank

Vapor Vent System Hoses

Visually inspect for corrosion,

damage, cracks, and loose or leaking

connections. Tighten connections

and replace parts as necessary.

Fuel Tank Cap Gasket

Visually inspect for cracks,

deterio ration and damage and

replace if necessary.

Nuts and Bolts on Chassis

Check that tightness of the

seat-mounting bolts and front/rear

suspension-member retaining bolts

matches torque measurements

specified in the Repair Manual.

Rack-and-Pinion Assembly

Inspect the rack-and-pinion assembly

for signs of leakage, damage and

loose electrical connections. Tighten

connections and if you discover any

leakage or damage, have it repaired

immediately by a qualified technician.

Rear Differential Oil

Check level and condition of oil and

inspect the rear differential assembly

case for signs of leakage. (The rear

electric motor/generator does not

require periodic maintenance.)

Any service that requires inspecting

or replacing rear differential oil

should be performed by a qualified

technician following procedures in

Lexus service and repair publications.

Please refer to the important

safety precautions on the inside

front cover of this booklet.

Road Test

While driving the vehicle, check

for proper operation of engine,

transmission, brakes and steering.

Also check the parking brake, and

check for abnormal noise or vibration

from any part of the vehicle.

Spark Plugs

Replace at specified interval.

Install new plugs of the same

type as originally equipped

(see your Owner’s Manual).

A qualified technician should

perform this operation.

MAINTENANCE

72 Scheduled Maintenance Log

Steering Linkage and Boots

With the vehicle stopped, check

for excessive freeplay in the steering

wheel. Inspect the linkage for

bending and damage and the dust

boots for deterioration, cracks and

damage. Replace any damaged

parts. A qualified technician should

Timing Chain

The timing chain requires no

periodic inspection.

Tire Rotation

See your Owner’s Manual for tire

rotation requirements. Check tire

pressure and check tires for damage

and uneven wear. If the vehicle is

equipped with a spare tire, check the

condition and pressure of the spare.

Tire-Pressure Warning Sensors

A tire-pressure sensor is mounted

on each full-size wheel. These

sensors do not require periodic

maintenance. When a sensor’s

long-life lithium battery becomes

discharged, the battery should be

replaced by a qualified technician

following procedures in Lexus

service and repair publications.

Transmission Fluid

The transmission and transmission

fluid are a completely sealed unit.

Therefore, periodic checks and

replacement of the transmission

fluid are not required, and there

is no dipstick on the transmission.

Inspect the transmission/front

differential assembly case for signs

of leakage. (The front electric motor/

generators do not require periodic

maintenance.) Any service that

requires inspecting or replacing

transmission/front differential fluid

should be performed by a qualified

technician following procedures in

Lexus service and repair publications.

Please refer to the important

safety precautions found on the

inside front cover of this booklet.

Wiper Blades

The wiper blades should not show

any signs of cracking, splitting, wear,

contamination or deformation.

The wiper blades should clear

the windshield without streaking

or skipping.

DEALERSHIP

MAINTENANCE AND

REPAIRS

Your NX 300h is a gas/electric hybrid

vehicle that has both high-voltage DC

and AC systems as well as a 12-volt

system. Both DC and AC high voltage

are very dangerous and can cause

personal injury, severe burns, electric

shock and even fatal injury unless

appropriate precautions are taken.

To avoid personal injury, please

follow all caution labels attached

to high-voltage parts. Do not touch

or attempt to remove or replace

any high-voltage (orange-colored)

wiring and connectors.

If an accident occurs, do not touch

any high-voltage wiring, connectors

or parts such as the inverter under the

hood or the hybrid battery assembly

under the rear seat.

Do not touch the potassium hydroxide

electrolyte that might spill or leak from

the hybrid battery as the result of an

accident. If potassium hydroxide

electrolyte gets on your skin or in

your eyes, neutralize it immediately

with a saturated boric acid solution

(ratio: 80 grams boric acid to

two liters water). Seek immediate

medical attention.

If a vehicle fire occurs, extinguish

it with a Class D powder-type

fire extinguisher.
