Installing tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters
NOTICE
■ Repairing or replacing tires, wheels,
tire pressure warning valves, trans-
mitters and tire valve caps
● When removing or fitting the wheels,
tires or the tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters, contact your
Lexus dealer as the tire pressure warn-
ing valves and transmitters may be
damaged if not handled correctly.
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.

warning valves and transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid seal-
ants, the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter may not operate properly. If a
liquid sealant is used, contact your Lexus
dealer or other qualified service shop as
soon as possible. Make sure to replace
the tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitter when replacing the tire.
When replacing tires or wheels, tire
pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters 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
(P.451)
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 20 min-
utes, the tire pressure warning light blinks
for 1 minute and stays on to indicate a sys-
tem malfunction.
Registration of the position of
each wheel
It is necessary to register the posi-
tion of each wheel after performing
a tire rotation.
Wheel position registration can be
performed by oneself. Wheel position
registration is performed by driving
forward with moderate left and right
turns. However, depending on the driv-
ing conditions and driving environ-
ment, 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 EV system.
The wheel position registration procedure
cannot be performed while the vehicle is
moving.
