NOTICE
● Make sure to install the tire valve caps. If the tire valve caps are not installed, water
could enter the tire pressure warning valves, corrode the valve, and cause sticking and
air leaks.
● When replacing tire valve caps, do not use tire valve caps other than those specified.
The cap may become stuck.
■ To avoid damage to the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and transmit-
ter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact any authorized Lexus
retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer or other qualified service
shop as soon as possible. Make sure to replace the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter when replacing the tire.
When replacing tires or wheels, tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must
also be installed.
When new tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are installed, new ID
codes must be registered in the tire pressure warning computer
INFORMATION
■ When replacing the tires and wheels
If the ID code of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not registered, the tire
pressure warning system will not work properly.
In this case, after driving for about 10 minutes, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1
minute and stays on to indicate a system malfunction.
Registration of the position of each wheel after performing a tire rota-
tion
It is necessary to register the position of each wheel after performing a tire
rotation.
Wheel position registration can be performed by oneself. Wheel position registra-
tion is performed by driving forward with moderate left and right turns. However,
depending on the driving conditions and driving environment, registration may
take some time to complete.
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place, turn the power switch off and wait 15 minutes
or more.
2
Start the hybrid system.
