Owner Amenities |WarrantyInformation |Maintenance Requirements

Your RX 400h 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. Donot touch the

service plug behind the trim under

the left rear seat.

If an accident occurs, do not touch

any high-voltage wiring, connectors

or parts such as the inverter under the

hood or the hybrid batteryassembly

under the rear seat.

Do not touch the potassium hydroxide

electrolyte that might spill or leak

from the hybrid batteryas 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 ClassDpowder-type fire

extinguisher.

tions during and after production. The

Additional Keys

If you require additional keys, call or

visit an authorized Lexus dealership.

You will need to provide the dealer-

ship with your vehicle’s key code

(found on the key number plate pro-

vided with your original set of keys).

Collision Repairs

If you’reinvolved in a collision, you

want your vehicle to be returned to

its pre-accident condition when

suggest using imitation or salvaged

parts to save money. However, these

parts do not meet Lexus’ high stan-

dards for quality,fit and corrosion

resistance. In addition, imitation and

salvaged parts (and any damage or

failures they may cause) are not cov-

ered by any Lexus warranty.

The best way to ensure that your vehi-

cle is repaired with Genuine Lexus

Parts is to take it to a Lexus dealer-

ship. Each dealership works with

selected collision repair centers that

meet Lexus’ strict requirements for

training, equipment, quality and cus-

tomer satisfaction. These repair cen-
