Maintenance and care
Rotate the tires in the order shown.
To equalize tire wear and help extend tire
life, Lexus recommends that tire rotation is
carried out approximately every 10000
km (6000 miles).
Do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system after tire rotation.
Q When rotating the tires
Make sure that the power switch is off. If the
tires are rotated while the power switch is in
ON mode, the tire position information will
not be updated.
If this accidentally occurs, either turn the
power switch to off and then to ON mode,
or initialize the tire pressure warning system
after checking that the tire pressure is prop-
erly adjusted.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure warning system that uses tire
pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters to detect low tire inflation pressure
before serious problems arise.
If the tire pressure drops below a
predetermined level, the driver is
warned by a screen display and a
warning light. (P.410)
The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can be
displayed on the multi-information
display. (P.107)
The illustration used is intended as an
example, and may differ from the image
that is actually displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display.
Q Routine tire inflation pressure checks
The tire pressure warning system does not
replace routine tire inflation pressure
checks. Make sure to check tire inflation
pressure as part of your routine of daily
vehicle checks.
Q Tire inflation pressure
O It may take a few minutes to display the
tire inflation pressure after the power
switch is turned to ON mode. It may also
take a few minutes to display the tire infla-
tion pressure after inflation pressure has
O Be sure to use proper tire inflation
pressure. If tires are under-inflated,
they may be damaged more severely.
O Avoid potholes, uneven pavement,
curbs and other road hazards. Failure
to do so may lead to severe tire and
wheel damage.
Q If tire inflation pressure of each tire
becomes low while driving
Do not continue driving, or your tires
and/or wheels may be ruined.
