NX 300h / NX 200t Maintenance Reminder Reset Quick Training Guide Outline The 2015 NX 300h and NX 200t received a new oil maintenance reminder system. This system is in addition to the scheduled maintenance reminder system found on all Lexus vehicles that alerts the driver every 5,000 miles. It is imperative that technicians understand that there are two separate systems, each with their own reset procedure. This Quick Training Guide will explain the reset procedure for both systems. Tabs: System Overview | Oil Maintenance Reset | Scheduled Maintenance Reset | Hints and Tips 1 System Overview Both the 2015 NX 300h and NX 200t have a new oil maintenance reminder system that will display how many miles are left before the oil needs to be changed. The remaining oil maintenance mileage is calculated based on fuel consumption, engine coolant temperature and vehicle speed. This mileage will vary from the other scheduled maintenance that takes place every 5,000 miles (tire rotation, etc.). The system will alert the customer via the multi-information display as follows: • When remaining oil maintenance mileage reaches 500 miles, “Oil Maintenance Required Soon” is displayed • When remaining oil maintenance mileage reaches to 0 miles, “Oil Maintenance Required Visit Your Dealer” is displayed The customer or technician can verify how many miles remain until the next oil change by viewing the odometer/trip meter. To access this feature, press the ODO/ TRIP switch as follows: ODO TRIP A  TRIP B  Miles to next oil change ODO. 2 Oil Maintenance Reset After completing an oil change service, the reminder is reset through the multi-information display using the steering wheel switches: 1. Use the steering wheel switches to select the settings menu. 2. Scroll down to select “Maintenance System (Reset Oil Maint. Data).” 3. Select “Yes” to initialize. 3 Scheduled Maintenance Reset After completing a scheduled maintenance (not an oil change), the reminder is also reset through the multi-information display using the steering wheel switches: 1. Use the steering wheel switches to select the settings menu. 2. Scroll down to select “Scheduled Maintenance (Reset Scheduled Maint. Data).” 3. Select “Yes” to reset data. 4 Hints and Tips Always remember these two things when resetting the maintenance reminders: 1. Resetting the oil maintenance reminder does not reset the scheduled maintenance reminder 2. Resetting the scheduled maintenance reminder does not reset the oil maintenance reminder The oil change interval will vary based on customer driving habits, and will probably not occur simultaneously with other scheduled maintenance items. To ensure customer satisfaction be sure to verify if any additional service may be needed soon, as they may wish to complete the service early instead of coming back for second appointment in a short period of time. 5
