3286-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Rotate the tires in the order shown.
To equalize tire wear and extend tire life,
Lexus recommends that tire rotation is car-
ried out at the same interval as tire inspec-
tion.
Do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system after tire rotation.
■When rotating the tires
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 oc curs, 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.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure warning system that uses tire
pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters to detect low ti re inflation pressure
before serious problems arise.
 If the tire pressure drops below a
predetermined level, the driver is
warned by a screen display and a
warning light. ( P.365)
 The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can be
displayed on the multi-information
display. ( P.77)
The illustration used is intended as an
example, and may differ from the image
that is actually displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display.
■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.
■Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to display the
tire inflation pressu re after the engine
switch is turned to IGNITION ON
mode.
It may also take a few minutes to display
the tire inflation pressure after inflation
pressure has b een adjusted.
NOTICE
●Be sure to use proper tire inflation
pressure. If tires are under-inflated,
they may be damaged more severely.
●Avoid potholes, uneven pavement,
curbs and other road hazards. Failure
to do so may lead to severe tire and
wheel damage.
■If tire inflation pres sure of each tire
becomes low while driving
Do not continue driving, or your tires
and/or wheels may be ruined.

inflation pressure of each tire on the multi-
information display while the tire pressure
warning system determines the position.
8Drive at approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h) or more for approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes.
When initialization is complete, the infla-
tion pressure of each tire will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
Even if the vehicle is not driven at approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km /h) or more, initial-
ization can be completed by driving for a
long time. However, if initialization does
not complete after driving for 1 hour or
more, park the vehicle in a safe place for
approximately 20 minutes and then drive
the vehicle again.
■When initializing
●Initialization is perfor med while driving at
a vehicle speed of approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h) or more.
●Make sure to carry ou t initialization after
adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initializat ion or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
●The tire pressure warning system can be
initialized by yourse lf, but depending on
the driving conditions and driving envi-
ronment, initialization may take some
time to complete.
■The initialization operation
●If you have accidentally turned the engine
switch off during initialization, it is not
necessary to manually restart the initial-
ization again, as initialization will restart automatically the next time the engine
switch is turned to IGNITION ON
mode.
●If you accidentally perform initialization
when initialization is
not necessary, adjust
the tire inflation pressure to the specified
level when the tires are cold, and conduct
initialization again.
●While the position of each tire is being
determined and the inflation pressures
are not being displayed on the multi-
information display, if the inflation pres-
sure of a tire drops, the tire pressure
warning light will come on.
■If the tire pressure warning system is not
initialized properly
●In the following situations, initialization
may take longer than usual to be com-
pleted or may not be possible. Normally,
initialization comple tes within approxi-
mately 30 minutes.
• Vehicle is not driven at approximately 25
mph (40 km/h) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehicles and system cannot recognize tire pressure
warning valve and transmitters of your
vehicle over those of other vehicles
If initialization does no t complete after driv-
ing for 1 hour or more, park the vehicle in a
safe place for approximately 20 minutes
and then drive the vehicle again.
●If the vehicle is reversed during initializa-
tion, the data up to that point is reset, so
perform the initiali zation procedure
again from the beginning.
●In the following situations, initialization
will not be started or was not completed
properly and the system will not operate
properly. Perform th e initialization pro-
cedure again.
• If, when attempting to start initialization, the tire pressure warning light does not
blink 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven for
about 20 minutes afte r performing initial-
ization, the tire pr essure warning light
blinks for approximately 1 minute and
then illuminates.
