7464-2. Maintenance
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Emission inspection and maintenance (I/M) programsSome states have vehicle emission inspection programs which include
OBD (On Board Diagnostics) checks. The OBD system monitors the
operation of the emission control system.
■ If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on
The OBD system determines that a problem exists somewhere in
the emission control system. Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test
and may need to be repaired. Cont act your Lexus dealer to service
the vehicle.
■ Your vehicle may not pass the I/M test:
● When the battery is disconnected or discharged
Readiness codes that are set du ring ordinary driving are erased.
Also, depending on your driving habits, the readiness codes may
not be completely set.
● When the fuel tank cap is loose
The malfunction indicator lamp comes on as a temporary mal-
function and your vehicle may not pass the I/M test.
■ When the malfunction indicator lamp goes off after several driv-
ing trips
The error code in the OBD system will not be cleared unless the
vehicle is driven 40 or more times.
■ If your vehicle does not pass the I/M test
Contact your Lexus dealer to prepare the vehicle for re-testing.

Maintenance and care
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) Installing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
When replacing tires or wheels, ti re pressure warning valves and trans-
mitters must also be installed.
When new tire pressure warning va lves and transmitters are installed,
new ID codes must be registered in the tire pressure warning computer
and the tire pressure warning system must be initialized. Have tire pres-
sure warning valve and transmitter ID codes registered by your Lexus
dealer. ( P. 768)
Initializing the tire pressure warning system
■ The tire pressure warning system must be initialized in the following
circumstances:
● When rotating the tires in above situation.
● When the set tire pressure has been changed before towing.
( P. 895)
When the tire pressure warning sy stem is initialized, the current tire
inflation pressure is set as the benchmark pressure.

7684-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) ■ How to initialize the tire pressure warning system
Park the vehicle in safe plac e and turn the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch to OFF. While the vehicle is moving, initialization is not performed.
Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level. ( P. 895)Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level. The tire pressure warning system will operate based on
this pressure level.
Turn the “ENGINE START STOP ” switch to IGNITION ON
mode.
Push and hold the tire pressure
warning reset switch until the tire
pressure warning light blinks
slowly 3 times and a message
appears on the multi-information
display.
Wait for a few minutes with th e IGNITION ON mode, and then
turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to OFF.
Registering ID codes
The tire pressure warning valve and tra nsmitter is equipped with a unique
ID code. When replacing a tire pre ssure warning valve and transmitter, it
is necessary to register the ID code of tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter. Have the ID code registered by your Lexus dealer.STEP 1

Maintenance and care
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(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, and 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, consul t 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 sy stem will not work properly. After driving for about 20
minutes, the tire pressure warning light come s on after blinking for 1 minute to indi-
cate a system malfunction. ■
When rotating the tires
Make sure that the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is off. If the tires are rotated
while the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode, the tire posi-
tion information will not be updated.
If this accidentally occurs, either turn the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to off
and then to IGNITION ON mode, or initia lize the system afte r checking that the
tire pressure is properly adjusted. ■
Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old mu st be checked by a qualified technician even if it has
seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious. ■
If the tread on snow tires wears down below 0.16 in. (4 mm)
The effectiveness of the tire s as snow tires is lost.

8345-2. Steps to take in an emergency
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) ■
When a tire is replaced with a spare tire
The spare tire is also equipped with the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter.
The tire pressure warning light will turn on if the tire inflation pressure of the spare
tire is low. If a tire goes flat, even though the flat tire is replaced with the spare tire,
the tire pressure warning li ght does not turn off. Repl ace the spare tire with the
repaired tire and adjust the proper tire in flation pressure. The ti re pressure warning
light will turn off after a few minutes. ■
If the tire pressure warning system is inoperative
The tire pressure warning system will become inoperative in the following condi-
tions: (When the condition becomes norm al, the system will work properly.)●
If tires not equipped with ti re pressure warning valves and transmitters are used.●
If the ID code on the tire pressure warn ing valves and transmitters is not regis-
tered in the tire pressure warning computer. ●
If the tire inflation pressure is 73 psi (500 kPa, 5.1 kgf/cm 2
or bar) or higher.
The tire pressure warning system may be disabled in the following conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.) ●
If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies are
nearby. ●
If a radio set at similar frequencies is in use in the vehicle. ●
If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed. ●
If there is a lot of snow or ice on the ve hicle, in particular around the wheels or
wheel housings. ●
If non-genuine Lexus wheels are used. (Even if you use Lexus wheels, the tire
pressure warning system may not work properly with some types of tires.)●
If tire chains are used. ●
If the spare tire is in a location subject to poor radio wave signal reception. ●
If a large metallic object which can interfere with signal reception is put in the
luggage compartment.
