CAUTION
■Replacing a flat tire
●Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury:
• Do not try to remove the wheel ornament by hand. Take due care in handling
the ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury.
• Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immediately after
the vehicle has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area around the
brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet or other
body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the
tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tightened, leading
to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing a serious accident.
Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 140 N•m (14.3 kgf•m,
103 ft•lbf) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
• Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the wheel
while the vehicle is moving.
• When installing a tire, only use wheel nuts that have been specifically designed
for that wheel.
• If there are any cracks or deformations in the bolt screws, nut threads or bolt
holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Lexus dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

If you have a flat tire (vehicles without a spare tire)
Your vehicle is not equipped with a spare tire, but instead is equipped
with an emergency tire puncture repair kit.
A puncture caused by a nail or screw passing through the tire tread can
be repaired temporarily with the emergency tire puncture repair kit.
CAUTION
■If you have a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat tire.
Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the wheel
beyond repair. Driving with a flat tire may cause a circumferential groove on the
side wall. In such a case, the tire may explode when using the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit, resulting in death or serious injury.

When trouble arises
LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
●Stop the vehicle in a safe place on a hard, flat surface.
●Set the parking brake.
●Shift the shift lever to P.
●Stop the hybrid system.
●Turn on the emergency flashers. ( P. 546)
●Check the degree of the tire damage.
A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a nail or screw passing
through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail or
screw from the tire. Removing
the object may widen the
opening and disenable emer-
gency repair with the kit.
• To avoid sealant leakage, move
the vehicle until the area of the
puncture, if known, is posi-
tioned at the top of the tire.

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 2 or more sharp objects, such as nails or screws, have passed through the

it is impossible to attach the label,
make sure to tell any authorized Lexus
dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional
when you have them repair and
replace the tire that sealant is injected.
Check the specified tire inflation
pressure.
Tire inflation pressure is specified on
the label as shown. ( P. 630)
Start the hybrid system. (P. 247)

LS600h/LS600hL_EE(OM50G20E)
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/cm2 or bar, 44
psi) or 400 kPa (4.0 kgf/cm2
or bar, 58 psi), then gradually
decrease.
The air pressure gauge will dis-
play the actual tire inflation
pressure about 1 minute (15
minutes at low temperature)
after the switch is turned on.
• 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
recommended tire inflation
pressure is reached.
• If the tire inflation pressure is still
lower than the recommended
level after inflation for 10 min-
utes (35 minutes at low tem-
perature) with the switch on, the
tire is too damaged to be
repaired. Turn the compressor
switch off and contact any
authorized Lexus dealer or
repairer, or anot her duly quali-
fied and equipped professional.
• If the tire inflation pressure
exceeds the recommended
level, let out some air to adjust
the tire inflation pressure.

With the compressor switch off, disconnect the hose from the valve on
the tire and then pull out the power plug from the power outlet socket.
Some sealant may leak when the hose is removed.
Install the valve cap onto the valve of the emergency repaired tire.
Attach the air release cap to the
end of the hose.
If the air release cap is not attached,
the sealant may leak and the vehicle
may get dirty.
Temporarily store the bottle in the trunk while it is connected to the
compressor.
To spread the liquid sealant evenly within the tire, immediately drive
safely for about 5 km (3 miles) below 80 km/h (50 mph).
After driving, stop your vehicle in
a safe place on a hard, flat surface
and reconnect the compressor.
