Cross chain
(4 mm [0.16 in.] in diameter)
Vehicles with front and rear tires of differing sizes and vehicles
with LDH and 19 inch tires
Tire chains cannot be mounted.

Wheels
When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that they are
equivalent to those removed in load capacity, diameter, rim width
and inset
*.
Replacement wheels are available at any authorized Lexus dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
*: Conventionally referred to as “off-
set”.
Lexus does not recommend using the following:
Wheels of different sizes or types
Used wheels
Bent wheels that have been straightened
Steel wheels (except for vehicles with a steel spare wheel)
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.

GS450h_300h_OM_OM30D53E_(EE)
In the following cases, the tire cannot be repaired with the emergency tire
puncture repair kit. Contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
When the tire is damaged due to driving without sufficient air pressure
When the tire lost air pressure due to a crack or damage in the tire sidewall
When the tire is visibly separated from the wheel
When the cut or damage to the tread is 4 mm (0.16 in.) long or more
When the wheel is damaged
When two or more tires have been punctured
When there is more than one hole or cut in the damaged tire
When the sealant has expired
Emergency tire puncture repair kit
The sealant has a limited lifespan. The expiry date is shown on the bottle.
The sealant should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional for replacement.
The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used only
once to temporarily repair a single tire. If the sealant has been used and
need to be purchased, contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -40 C (-40
F) to 60 C (140 F).
The repair kit is exclusively designed for size and type of tires originally
installed on your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a different size than the
original ones, or for any other purposes.
If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may stain.
If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the stain
may not be removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe away
the sealant with a wet cloth.
During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This
does not indicate a malfunction.
Do not use the emergency tire puncture repair kit to check or to adjust the
tire pressure.
