CAUTION
If the low tire pressure warning light comes on or
blinks and chimes sound, take your vehicle to the
nearest Lexus dealer or authorized tire dealer as
soon as possible, observing the following
instructions:
D Decelerate as soon as possible to the most
appropriate speed that conditions permit. Do
not drive for longer than 160 km (100 miles) or
over 90 km/h (55 mph).
D Avoid abrupt steering wheel maneuvering and
braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the
brakes, causing death or serious injury.

NOTICE
D Do not use liquid sealants for a flat tire as tire
pressure sensors will be damaged.
D Take due care not to go over a curb stone and
be careful of the holes in the road because
deflated tire pressure affects tire cushion
performance. The wheels,
suspension and other components could be
damaged.
D Your ground clearance is reduced if the run-flat
tire goes flat so avoid driving over obstacles
and drive slowly on rough, unpaved roads and
speed bumps. Also, do not attempt to go
through an automatic car wash as the vehicle
may get caught, resulting in damage.
D When the tires must be replaced, have them
replaced by the nearest Lexus dealer or
authorized tire dealer.
