Maintenance and care
When replacing wheels, care should
be taken to ensure that they are equiv-
alent to those removed in load capac-
ity, diameter, rim width and inset
*.
Replacement wheels are available at
your Lexus dealer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Lexus does not recommend using the
following:
 Wheels of different sizes or types
 Used wheels
 Bent wheels that have been straight-
ened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped
with tire pressure wa rning valves and trans-
mitters that allow the tire pressure warning
system to provide advance warning in the
event of a loss in tire inflation pressure.
Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pres-
sure warning valves an d transmitters must
be installed. ( P.305)
NOTICE
■When inspecting and adjusting tire
inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on.
If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or mois-
ture may get into the valve and cause an
air leak, resulting in decreased tire infla-
tion pressure.
Wheels
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.

WARNING
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a different
size from those recommended in the
Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a
loss of handling control.

LC500_LC500h_OM_OM11405U_(U)
WARNING
●Decelerate to the lowest appropriate speed as soon as possible. Do not drive over 50
mph (80 km/h).
●Check and adjust the tire in flation pressure immediately.
●If the tire pressure warning lig ht comes on even after tire inflation pressure adjustment,
it is probable that you have a flat tire. Have the flat tire replaced by the nearest Lexus
dealer.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If th e 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.
■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 vehi-
cle placard or tire inflation pr essure label (tire and load info rmation label). (If your vehicle
has tires of a different size th an the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load information label], you should determine the proper tire
inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitor-
ing system (TPMS-tire pressure warning system) that illuminates a low tire pressure tell-
tale (tire pressure warning light) when one or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressu re telltale (tire pressure warning light) illu-
minates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a si gnificantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation al so 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 respon sibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even
if under-inflation has not reac hed the level to trigger illumina tion of the TPMS low tire
pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS (tire pressure warning system) mal-
function indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS (tire
pressure warning system) malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale (tire pressure warning light). When the system detect s a malfunction, the telltale
will flash for approximately one minute and th en remain continuously illuminated. This
sequence will continue upon subsequent vehi cle start-ups as long as the malfunction
exists. When the malfunction in dicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to
detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS (tire pressure warning system) malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of re placement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS (tire pressure warning sy stem) from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS (tire pressure warning system ) malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensu re that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS (tire pr essure warning system) to cont inue to function properly.

●If the 12-volt battery discharges, it may
not be possible to shift the shift position to
other positions. In this case, the vehicle
cannot be towed without lifting both rear
wheels because the re ar wheels will be
locked. ( P.329)
■When exchanging the 12-volt battery
●Use a Central Degassing type 12-volt
battery (European Regulations).
●Type A*1: Use a 12-volt battery that the
case size is same as the previous one
(LN4), 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is
equivalent (80Ah) or greater, and per-
formance rating (CCA) is equivalent
(685A) or greater.
Type B
*2: Use a 12-volt battery that the
case size is same as the previous one
(LN3), 20 hour rate capacity (20HR) is
equivalent (70Ah) or greater, and perfor-
mance rating (CCA) is equivalent
(600A) or greater.
• If the sizes differ, the 12-volt battery can- not be properly secured.
• If the 20 hour rate capacity is low, even if the time period where the vehicle is not
used is a short time, the 12-volt battery
may discharge and engine tem> may not be able to start.
●Use a 12-volt battery with a handle. If a
12-volt battery without a handle is used,
removal is more difficult.
●After exchanging, firmly attach the fol-
lowing items to the exhaust hole of the 12-
volt battery.
• Use the exhaust hose that was attached to the 12-volt battery before exchanging.
• Use the exhaust hole plug included with the 12-volt battery exchanged or the one
installed on the battery prior to the
exchange. (Depending on the 12-volt
battery to be exchanged, the exhaust
hole may be plugged.) Exhaust hole plug

WARNING
■When removing the 12-volt battery
terminals
Always remove the negative (-) terminal
first. If the positive (+) terminal contacts
any metal in the surrounding area when
the positive (+) terminal is removed, a
spark may occur, leading to a fire in addi-
tion to electrical shocks and death or
serious injury.
■Avoiding 12-volt battery fires or
explosions
Observe the following precautions to
prevent accidentally igniting the flamma-
ble gas that may be emitted from the 12-
volt battery:
