NOTICE
Driving on rough roads
■
Take particular care when driving on
roads with loose surfaces or potholes.
These conditions may cause losses in tire
inflation pressure, reducing the cushion-
ing ability of the tires. In addition, driving
on rough roads may cause damage to
the tires themselves, as well as the vehi-
cle's wheels and body.
Tire rotation
Rotate the tires in the order shown.
Vehicles with front and rear tires of
the same size
Vehicles with front and rear tires of
differing sizes
To equalize tire wear and help extend tire
life, Lexus recommends that tire rotation is
carried out approximately every 10000
km (6000 miles).

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system after tire rotation.
When rotating the tires (vehicles with
■
the tire inflation pressure display func-
tion)
Make sure that the engine switch is off. If the
tires are rotated while the engine switch is in
IGNITION ON mode, the tire position
information will not be updated.
If this accidentally occurs, either turn the
engine switch to off and then to IGNITION
ON mode, or initialize the system after
checking that the tire pressure is properly
adjusted.
Tire pressure warning system
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.
Vehicles without the tire inflation
pressure display function
If the tire pressure drops below a pre-
determined level, the driver is warned
by a warning light. (P.353)
Vehicles with the tire inflation pres-
sure display function
If the tire pressure drops below a
predetermined level, the driver is
warned by a screen display and a
warning light. (P.353)
The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can be
displayed on the multi-information
display. (P.106)
