LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ■ Tire inflation pressure
■ Display off
A blank screen is displayed Displays inflation pressure of each tire. There
is no correlation between the order of the dis-
played values and the tire positions. If the inflation pressure of any tire drops a cer-
tain amount below the tire inflation pressure
value currently memorized in the system, the
displayed values will be highlighted.
It may take a few minutes to display the tire infla-
tion pressure after the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode. It may
also take a few minutes to display the tire infla-
tion pressure after inflation pressure has been
adjusted.
If the tire pressure warning light is on or flashing,
a message describing the situation will be dis-
played.

Sounds and vibrations caused by the Crawl Control system ●
A sound may be heard from the engi ne compartment when the engine is
started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indicate that
a malfunction has occurred in Crawl Control system. ●
Either of the following conditions may occur when the Crawl Control system is
operating. None of these are indicators that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.■

not extend the vehicle’s performance limitations. Always thoroughly check the road
conditions, and drive safely. ■
These conditions may cause the system not to operate properly
When driving on the following surfaces, th e system may not be able to maintain a
fixed low speed, which may result in an accident: ●
Extremely steep inclines. ●
Extremely uneven surfaces. ●
Snow-covered roads, or other slippery surfaces.
NOTICE■

On roads with sharp be nds or uneven surfaces●
If a vehicle suddenly moves in front of your vehicle, such as at an intersection ●
If a vehicle suddenly cuts in front of your vehicle, such as when overtaking ●
In inclement weather such as heav y rain, fog, snow or sand storms●
When your vehicle is skidding such as the VSC system off●
When your vehicle is steeply inclined ●
When the axis of the radar is out of adjustment■
Automatic cancelation of the pre-collision system
When a malfunction occurs due to sensor contamination, etc. that results in the
sensors being unable to detect obstacles, the pre-collision system will be automati-
cally disabled. In this case, the system will not activate even if there is a collision pos-
sibility. ■

Maintenance and care
LX570_OM_OM60L21U_(U) ■
When to replace your vehicle’s tires
Tires should be replaced if: ●
You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to expose the
fabric or bulges indicating internal damage ●
A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly 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 warn ing valve and transmitter is not registered,
the tire pressure warning system will not work properly. After driving for about 20
minutes, the tire pressure warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute to indi-
cate a system malfunction. ■
Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if they
have seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious. ■
If the tread wears down 0.16 in. (4 mm) or more on snow tires
The effectiveness of snow tires is lost.
