GS350_200t_GS F_OM_OM30E87E_(EE)
Tire chains cannot be mounted.
Snow tires should be used instead.
Regulations regarding the use of tire chains vary depending on location and type
of road. Always check local regulations before installing chains.
If heavy snow or icy condition is expected, shift the rest position manually.
Grip the hook section of the wiper arm firmly when shifting the wiper position.
■To r e s t p o s i t i o n
Raise the wiper in line with the wind-
shield.
You can stand the wipers up for the
rest position.
★: More than 10 cm (3.9 in.)
■To retract position
Lower the wipers by pressing on the
upper part of the hook section.
■Tire chain installation
Observe the following precautions when installing and removing chains:
●Install and remove tire chains in a safe location.
●Install tire chains on the rear tires. Do not install tire chains on the front tires.
●Install tire chains on rear tires as tightly as possible. Retighten chains after driving 0.5
 1.0 km (1 /4  1 /2 mile).
●Install tire chains following the instructions provided with the tire chains.

Maintenance and care
GS350_200t_GS F_OM_OM30E87E_(EE)
Wheels
When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that they are equivalent
to those removed in load capacity, diameter, rim width and inset
*.
Replacement wheels are available at any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
*: Conventionally referred to as “offset”.
Lexus does not recommend using the following:
●Wheels of different sizes or types
●Used wheels
●Bent wheels that have been straightened
●Steel wheels (except for GS200t with steel spare wheel)
●Use only Lexus wheel nuts and wrenches designed for use with your alumi-
num wheels.
●When rotating, repairing or changing your tires, check that the wheel nuts are
still tight after driving 1600 km (1000 miles).
●Be careful not to damage the aluminum wheels when using tire chains.
●Use only Lexus genuine balance weights or equivalent and a plastic or rubber
hammer when balancing your wheels.
■When replacing wheels (vehicles with the tire pressure warning system)
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event
of a loss in tire inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters must be installed. ( →P. 4 6 7 )
If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily corroded, it should be replaced. Other-
wise, the tire may separate from the wheel or cause a loss of handling control.

WA R N I N G
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When towing the vehicle
■While towing
●When towing using cables or chains, avoid sudden starts, etc. which place excessive
stress on the towing eyelets, cables or chains. The towing eyelets, cables or chains
may become damaged, broken debris may hit people, and cause serious damage.
●Do not turn the engine switch off.
There is a possibility that the steering wh eel is locked and cannot be operated.
■Installing towing eyelets to the vehicle
Make sure that towing eyelets are installed securely.
If not securely installed, towing eyelets may come loose during towing.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type truck
●Do not tow the vehicle from the rear when the engine switch is off. The steering lock
mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front wheels straight.
●When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at the oppo-
site end of the raised vehicle. Without adequate clearance, the vehicle could be dam-
aged while being towed.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing with a sling-type truck
Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle during emergency towing
Do not secure cables or chains to the suspension components.
2WD models:
Be sure to transport the vehicle with all four
wheels raised off the ground. If the vehicle is
towed with the tires contacting the ground, the
drivetrain and related parts may be damaged
or an accident may occur due to a change in
direction of the vehicle.
AW D m o d e l s :
Be sure to transport the vehicle with all four
wheels raised off the ground. If the vehicle is
towed with the tires contacting the ground, the
drivetrain or related parts may be damaged,
the vehicle may fly off the truck.

■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The sealant has a limited lifespan. The expiry date is shown on the bottle. The sealant
should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact any authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used only once to
temporarily repair a single tire. If the sealant has been used and need to be purchased,
contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
●The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -40 °C (-40 °F) to
60 °C (140 °F).
●The repair kit is exclusively designed for size and type of tires originally installed on your
vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a different size than the original ones, or for any other
purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may stain.
●If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the stain may not be
removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe away the sealant with a wet
cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use the emergency tire puncture repair kit to check or to adjust the tire pres-
sure.
■If the tire is inflated to more than the recommended level
Disconnect the hose from the valve.
Disconnect the hose from the valve, remove the air release cap from the hose and then
reconnect the hose.
Turn the compressor switch on and wait for several seconds, and then turn it off. Check
that the air pressure indicator shows the recommended level. ( →P. 6 2 3 )
If the air pressure is lower than the recommended level, turn the compressor switch on
again and repeat the inflation procedure until the recommended pressure is reached. Install the air release cap to the end of the
hose and push the protrusion on the air
release cap into the tire valve to let some air
out.
