LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) ■
If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
First check the following: ●
Is the fuel empty?
If it is, fill the fuel tank immediately. ●
Is the fuel tank cap loose?
If it is, tighten it securely.
The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after taking several driving trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does not go off even after several trips, contact
your Lexus dealer as soon as possible. ■
If the low speed four-wheel drive indicato r light or the center differential lock
indicator light blinks
Take the specified steps. (  P. 335)
If the brake system warning light or the malfunction indicator light also comes on, or
the low speed four-wheel drive indicator light or the center differential lock indica-
tor light continues to blink after taking th e specified steps, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the engine, the brake system or the four-wheel drive system. In this case, you
may not be able to transfer between “H4” and “L4” modes, and the center differen-
tial lock may not be able to be locked or unlocked. Have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer, immediately. ■
Front passenger detection sensor and passenger seat belt reminder●
If luggage is placed on the front pass enger seat, the front passenger detection
sensor may cause the warning light to flash, even if a passenger is not sitting in
the seat. ●
If a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passenger, and
the warning light may not operate properly.

This warning light system monitors the following: ●
The airbag sensor assembly ●
Front impact sensors ●
Side impact sensors (rear) ●
Side impact sensors (front door) ●
Safing sensor (rear) ●
The driver’s seat belt buckle switch ●
The driver’s seat position sensor ●
Front passenger’s seat belt buckle switch ●
The airbags ●
The interconnecting wiring and power sources ●
The front passenger occupa nt classification system●
“AIR BAG ON” and “AIR BAG OFF” indicator lights●
Seat belt pretensioners and force limiters ●
The “RSCA OFF” indicator light■
Changing the engine oil
Make sure to rese t oil change system■
When the tire pressure warning light comes on
Check the tire inflation pressure and adju st to the appropriate level. Pushing the
tire pressure warning reset sw itch does not turn off the tire pressure warning light.■
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as natural
air leaks or tire inflation pressure change s caused by temperature. In this case,
adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the warning light (after a few min-
utes).

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.

If the tire pressure warning light freque ntly comes on after blinking for 1 minute
If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for 1 minute
when the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is turned to IGNITION ON mode, have
it checked by Lexus dealer.
CAUTION■
If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following precauti ons. Failure to do so could cause loss of
vehicle control and result in death or serious injury. ●
Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation pres-
sure immediately. ●
If the tire pressure warning light come s on even after tire inflation pressure
adjustment, it is probab le that you have a flat tire. Chec k the tires. If the tire is flat,
change to the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the nearest Lexus
dealer. ●
Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you could
lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.■
If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.

8365-2. Steps to take in an emergency
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTION■
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 vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load information label).
(If your vehicle has tires of a different si ze than the size indi cated on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure label [tire and load information label], you should
determine the proper tire inflati on pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicl e has been equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (T PMS-tire pressure wa rning system) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale (tire pressure warning ligh t) when one or more of your tires is sig-
nificantly under-inflated. Acco rdingly, when the low tire pr essure telltale (tire pres-
sure warning light) illuminates, you shou ld 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 an d can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also 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 responsibility to maintain correct tire
pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of
the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).

When trouble arises
8375-2. Steps to take in an emergency
LX570_OM_OM60L96U_(U) CAUTIONYour vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning system)
malfunction indicator to indi cate when the system is not operating properly. The
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malf unction indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light). When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists . When the malfunction indicator is illumi-
nated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malf unctions may occur for a variety of rea-
sons, including the installation of replaceme nt or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS (tire pre ssure warning system) from functioning
properly. Always check the TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunction tell-
tale after replacing one or more tires or wh eels 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■
To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly
Do not install tires with different specificat ions or marks, as the tire pressure warn-
ing system may not operate properly.
