IS200t sport owners manual

[barryb]

Hi All,

got my new IS200t Sport at the weekend but there is no owners manual in the glove box, now my sales rep is off on holiday and another rep at the Lexus garage told me there is no longer one in the car and it is now a digital download (which I have downloaded) is this the case?

Thanks,

 

Barry

Yes that is the case, although I think if you make a fuss Lexus GB will eventually send you one.

It's all about saving the planet. Or money. Hhmmmm. [emoji57]

I have the same problem. I contacted Lexus UK who confirmed it was digital but a hard copy could be ordered by the dealer. 

I've asked the dealer to do this and am awaiting it. I'm old school.

I downloaded the digital version but its bloody difficult to use.....a step back if you ask me but at least the car still has a dip stick

Thanks guys, I'm a techie but I prefer my car manual to be old school too lol, looking at a PDF on a smartphone is, well, rubbish!

 

The sales rep is off that I dealt with bought my other 2 Lexus off him too, so will ask him on his return from his holiday :),

I had an e mail from the dealer today that its online only for the IS200t ..(.an IS300h one turned up when they attempted to get one.)

This was the e mail from Lexus.....I presumed the last sentence meant they were available but seemingly not !

Does it really make much of a difference if an IS300h one turns up?

Yes, you might not be able to rely on the technical bits to do with the engine but all the tech and functionality of the car will be exactly the same

Not at all the first thing I did was ask them to send it to me.

It arrived this morning and its simply the quick quide....I give up and will carry on with the pdf on the phone which is a right pain. Still It's nice of Lexus to think of the environment, perhaps they could have used recycled material in their manuals or something.

Its odd, Mini ditched the leather folders but you still get a stonking great handbook, Lexus do the complete opposite. I know what I would rather have !

Hey Chris,

I would but I prefer the manual :)

It's a shame Lexus has not thought of downloading the manual to the car so you can access it from a menu within the ICE/SatNav system
