Inflate the tire until the recom-
mended pressure is reached.
The sealant will be injected
and the pressure will spike to
300 kPa (3.0 kgf/cm
2 or bar,
44 psi) or 400 kPa (4.0 kgf/
cm
2 or bar, 58 psi), and then
gradually decrease.
The air pressure gauge will
display the actual tire infla-
tion pressure about 1 minute
(15 minutes at low tempera-
ture) after the switch is
turned on.
Inject to recommended
pressure.
• Turn the compressor switch
off and then check the tire
inflation pressure. Being
careful not to over inflate,
check and repeat the inflation
procedure until the specified
tire inflation pressure is
reached.

If your vehicle overheats
If the needle of the engine coolant temperature gauge enters the
red zone
Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air condition-
ing system, and then stop the hybrid system.
If you see steam:
Carefully lift the hood after the steam subsides.
If you do not see steam:
Carefully lift the hood.
The following may indicate that your vehicle is overheating.
The needle of the engine coolant temperature gauge (P. 109)
enters the red zone or a loss of hybrid system power is experi-
enced. (For example, the vehicle speed does not increase.)
“Hybrid System Overheat” (P. 856) is shown on the multi-

Stop the hybrid system and carefully lift the hood.
After the hybrid system has cooled down, inspect the hoses
and radiator core (radiator) for any leaks.
Radiator
Cooling fans
If a large amount of coolant leaks, immediately contact your Lexus
dealer.
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is between the “F”/
“FULL” and “L”/“LOW” lines on the reservoir.

9328-1. Specifications
GS450h_300h_OM_OM30D53E_(EE)
Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which
allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W
allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.
• The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the
oil when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher
viscosity (one with a higher value) may be better suited if the
vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load con-
ditions.
How to read oil container labels:
Either or both API registered marks are added to some oil con-
tainers to help you select the oil you should use.
API Service Symbol
Top portion: “API SERVICE
SN” means the oil quality desig-
nation by American Petroleum
Institute (API).
Center portion: “SAE 0W-20”
means the SAE viscosity grade.
Lower portion: “Resource-Con-
serving” means that the oil has
fuel-saving and environmental
protection capabilities.
ILSAC Certification Mark
The International Lubricant
Specification Advisory Com-
mittee (ILSAC) Certification
Mark is displayed on the front
of the container.
