When trouble arises
CAUTION
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recomm ended by the vehicle manufacturer on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure la bel (tire and load information label). (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label [tire and load in formation label], you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure moni-
toring system (TPMS-tire pressure warning system) that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale (tire pressure warning light) when on e or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low ti re pressure telltale (tire pressure warning
light) illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency
and tire tread life, and ma y affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure wa rning system) is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has no t reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low
tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning system) mal-
function indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS
(tire pressure warning system) malfunction indi cator is combined with the low tire pres-
sure telltale (tire pressure warning light). When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one minu te and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will cont inue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the
malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not
be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfun ctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS (tire pressure warning syst em) malfunction telltale after replacing one
or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) to continue to function
properly.
NOTICE
■Precaution when inst alling a different tire
When differently constructed tires or tires of different makers, models or tread pat-
terns are installed, the tire pressure warning system may not operate properly.

5467-2. Steps to take in an emergency
GX460_OM_OM60K80U_(U)
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine speed slightly and
maintain at that level for approximately 5 minutes to recharge the battery of
your vehicle.
Open and close any of the doors of your vehicle with the engine switch off.
Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start the engine of your
vehicle by turning the engine switch to IGNITION ON mode.
Once your vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper cables in the exact
reverse order in which they were connected.
Once the engine starts, have the vehicle checked at your Lexus dealer as soon
as possible.
■Starting the engine when the battery is discharged
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is off.
●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running at a low
speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle is not
in use, due to natural discharg e and the draining effects of certain electrical appliances. If
the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may discharge, and the engine may be
unable to start. (The battery recharges automatically during driving.)
■When recharging or replacing the battery
●Make sure that the key is not inside the vehicle when recharging or replacing the bat-
tery. The key may be locked in the vehicle if the alarm is activated. ( P. 6 9 )
●In some cases, it may not be possible to unlock the doors using the smart access system
with push-button start when the battery is discharged. Use the wireless remote control
or the mechanical key to lock or unlock the doors.
●The engine may not start on the first attempt after the battery has recharged but will
start normally after the second attempt. This is not a malfunction.
●The engine switch mode is memorized by the vehicle. When the battery is recon-
nected, the system will return to the mode it was in before the battery was discharged.
Before disconnecting the battery, turn the engine switch off. If you are unsure what
mode the engine switch was in before the battery discharged, be especially careful
when reconnecting the battery.

CAUTION
■When inspecting under the hood of your vehicle
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns.
●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the steam
has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot.
●Keep hands and clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from the fans and
belts. Failure to do so may cause the hands or clothing to be caught, resulting in seri-
ous injury.
●Do not loosen the radiator cap or the coolant reservoir cap while the engine and radi-
ator are hot. High temperature steam or coolant could spray out.
NOTICE
■When adding engine coolant
Add coolant slowly after the engine has cooled down sufficiently. Adding cool coolant
to a hot engine too quickly can cause damage to the engine.
■To prevent damage to the cooling system
Observe the following precautions:
●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust etc.).
●Do not use any coolant additives.

■Temperature A, B, C
The temperature grades are A (the highes
t), B, and C, representing the tire’s
resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when
tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test
wheel.
Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and
reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure.
Grade C corresponds to a level of perfor mance which all passenger car tires must
meet under the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109.
Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test
wheel than the minimum required by law.
Warning: The temperature grades of a tire assume that it is properly inflated and
not overloaded.
Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessiv e loading, either separately or in com-
bination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

ATTENTION
■Précautions relatives aux coussins gonflables SRS
●N’accrochez pas de cintres ni d’autres objets rigides sur les crochets porte-vête-
ments. Tous ces objets pour raient se transformer en projectiles et vous occasionner
des blessures graves, voire mortelles, en cas de déploiement des coussins gonflables
SRS en rideau.
●Si le recouvrement de vinyle est placé sur la zone de déploiement du coussin gon-
flable SRS de protection des genoux, veillez à le retirer.
●N’utilisez pas d’accessoires recouvrant les pa rties du siège où les coussins gonflables
SRS latéraux se déploient, car ces access oires pourraient entraver le déploiement
des coussins gonflables. De tels accessoires peuvent empêcher les coussins gon-
flables latéraux de se déployer correctement, rendre le système inopérant ou provo-
quer accidentellement le déploiement des coussins gonflables latéraux,
occasionnant des blessures graves, voire mortelles.
●Ne frappez pas et n’appliquez pas une pr ession importante à l’emplacement des
composants des coussins gonflables SRS.
Cela peut provoquer un mauvais foncti onnement des coussins gonflables SRS.
●Ne touchez à aucun composant des coussins gonflables SRS immédiatement après
leur déploiement (gonflage), car ils pourraient être chauds.
●Si vous avez de la difficulté à respirer après le déploiement des coussins gonflables
SRS, ouvrez une portière ou une glace pour laisser entrer l’air, ou quittez le véhicule
si vous pouvez le faire en toute sécurité. Dès que possible, nettoyez tous les résidus
afin d’éviter les irritations cutanées.
●Si les emplacements de stockage des coussi ns gonflables SRS, tels que le tampon de
volant et les garnitures des montants avant, latéraux et arrière, sont endommagés ou
fissurés, faites-les remplacer par votre concessionnaire Lexus.
●Ne placez aucun objet, par exemple un coussin, sur le siège du passager avant. Cela
disperserait le poids du passager, ce qui empêcherait le capteur de le détecter cor-
rectement. Cela pourrait empêcher le déploiement des coussins gonflables SRS du
passager avant en cas de collision.
●Ne fixez rien sur des zones telles que les
portières, le pare-brise, les glaces de
portières, les montants avant, latéraux ou
arrière, le brancard de pavillon et la poignée
de maintien.
