CAUTION
■After using the tools and jack
Before driving, make sure all the tools and jack are securely in place in their stor-
age location to reduce the possibility of personal injury during a collision or sudden
braking.
NOTICE
■When replacing the tires (vehicles with the tire pressure warning system)
When removing or fitting the wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter, contact any authorized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional as the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter
may be damaged if not handled correctly.
■To avoid damage to the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact any autho-
rized Lexus dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional
or other qualified service shop as soon as possible. Make sure to replace the tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter when replacing the tire. ( P. 508)

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.

●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.
