CT200h_OM_OM76197U_(U)
■Reception sensitivity
●Maintaining perfect radio recept ion at all times is difficult due to the continually chang-
ing position of the antenna, differences in  signal strength and surrounding objects, such
as trains, transmitters, etc.
●The radio antenna is mounted inside the rear  window. To maintain clear radio reception,
do not attach metallic window tinting or other metallic objects to the antenna wire
mounted inside the rear window.

Turn the power switch off.
While pressing the odometer/trip meter display change button ( P.  8 4 ) ,  t u r n  t h e
power switch to ON mode (do not start the hybrid system because otherwise the reset
mode will be canceled). Continue to press an d hold the button until the trip meter dis-
plays “000000” and the multi-information displa y indicates that the reset is complete.
■Allow inspection and repairs to be performed by a Lexus dealer
●Lexus technicians are well-trained specialists and are kept up to date with the latest ser-
vice information. They are well informed about the operation of all systems on your
vehicle.
●Keep a copy of the repair order. It proves that the maintenance that has been per-
formed is under warranty coverage. If any  problem should arise while your vehicle is
under warranty, your Lexus dealer  will promptly take care of it.

Press and hold the tire pressure
warning reset switch until the tire
pressure warning light blinks
slowly 3 times.
Wait for a few minutes with the power switch in ON mode and then turn
the power switch off. 
◆Registering ID codes
The tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is equipped with a unique ID
code. When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, it is nec-
essary to register the ID code. Have the ID code registered by your Lexus
dealer.
■When to replace your vehicle’s tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●The treadwear indicators are showing on a tire.
●You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to expose the fabric, and
bulges indicating internal damage.
●A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be prop
erly repaired due to the size or location of
a cut or other damage.
If you are not sure, consult with your Lexus dealer.
■Replacing 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 proper ly. After driving for about 20 minutes, the
tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute and stays on to indicate a system malfunc-
tion.
■Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if it has seldom
or never been used or damage is not obvious.
■Routine tire inflation pressure checks
The tire pressure warning system does not replace routine tire inflation pressure checks.
Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as  part of your routine of daily vehicle checks.
