WARNING
■When installing the tire
Failure to follow these precautions could
cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the
tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Never use oil or grease on the wheel
bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the wheel
nuts to be excessively tightened, lead-
ing to bolt or disc wheel damage. In
addition, the oil or grease can cause
the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel
may fall off, causing a serious accident.
Remove any oil or grease from the
wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
●Have the wheel nuts tightened with a
torque wrench to 103.3 ft•lbf (140
N•m, 14.3 kgf•m) soon as possible
after changing wheels.
●Do not attach a heavily damaged
wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the vehicle is moving.
●When installing a tire, only use wheel
nuts that have been specifically
designed for that wheel.
●If there are any cracks or deformations
in the bolt screws, nut threads or bolt
holes of the wheel, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
■After using the tools
Before driving, make sure all the tools are
stored securely in place. Failure to do so
may cause injury in case of a collision or
sudden braking.

Maintenance and care
When replacing wheels, care should
be taken to ensure that they are equiv-
alent to those removed in load capac-
ity, diameter, rim width and inset
*.
Replacement wheels are available at
your Lexus dealer.
*: 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 straight-
ened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped
with tire pressure wa rning valves and trans-
mitters 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 pres-
sure warning valves an d transmitters must
be installed. ( P.317)
NOTICE
■When inspecting and adjusting tire
inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on.
If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or mois-
ture may get into the valve and cause an
air leak, resulting in decreased tire infla-
tion pressure.
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily
corroded, it should be replaced.
Otherwise, the tire may separate
from the wheel or cause a loss of
handling control.

WARNING
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a different
size from those recommended in the
Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a
loss of handling control.

When trouble arises
WARNING
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and
inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehi-
cle placard or tire inflation pr essure label (tire and load info rmation label). (If your vehicle
has tires of a different size th an the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load information 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 monitor-
ing system (TPMS-tire pressure warning system) that illuminates a low tire pressure tell-
tale (tire pressure warning light) when one or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressu re telltale (tire pressure warning light) illu-
minates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a si gnificantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation al so reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) is not a substitute for proper
tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s respon sibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if under-inflation has not reac hed the level to trigger illumina tion 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 indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale (tire pressure warning light). When the system detect s a malfunction, the telltale
will flash for approximately one minute and th en remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehi cle start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction in dicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of re placement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning sy stem) from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS (tire pressure warning system ) malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensu re that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS (tire pr essure warning system) to cont inue to function properly.
NOTICE
■To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly
Do not install tires with differ ent specifications or makers, as the tire pressure warning
system may not operate properly.
