Maintenance and care
warning system determines the position.
8Drive the vehicle at approximately
25mph (40 km/h) or more for
approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
When initialization is complete, the infla-
tion pressure of each tire will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
Depending on the vehicle and driving con-
ditions, initialization may take up to
approximately 1 hour to complete.
■The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry ou t initialization after
adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initializat ion or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the engine
switch off during initial-
ization, it is not necessary to manually
restart the initializatio n again, as initializa-
tion will restart automatically the next
time the engine switch is
turned to IGNITION ON mode mode>.
●If you accidentally perform initialization
when initialization is not necessary, adjust
the tire inflation pres sure to the specified
level when the tires are cold, and conduct
initialization again.
●While the position of each tire is being
determined and the inflation pressures
are not being displayed on the multi-
information display, if the inflation pres-
sure of a tire drops, the tire pressure
warning light will come on.
■When initialization of the tire pressure
warning system has failed
Initialization may take longer to complete if
the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road.
When performing initia lization, drive on a
paved road if possible. Depending on the
driving environment and condition of the
tires, initialization will be completed in
approximately 10 to 30 minutes. If initializa-
tion is not complete after driving approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes, continue driving
for a while. If the inflation of each tire is not
displayed after driving for approximately 1
hour, perform the following procedure.
●Park the vehicle in a safe place for
approximately 20 minutes. Then drive
straight (with occasional left and right
turns) at approximately 25 mph (40
km/h) or more for approximately 10 to
30 minutes.
However, in the following situations, the tire
inflation pressure will not be recorded and
the system will not operate properly. Per-
form initialization again.
●When performing init ialization, the tire
pressure warning light does not blink 3
times. (Initialization will not occur while
driving)
●After performing init ialization, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute
then stays on after driving for about 20
minutes.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is still not
displayed, have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
■When registering ID codes
●Initialize the tire pressure warning system
after ID code registra tion. Initialization is
disabled if the system was initialized
before registration.
●After ID code registration, the tires are
hot by driving. Initia lize the tire pressure
warning system after the tires become
cold.

3086-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
The tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter is equipped with a unique
ID code. When replacing a tire pres-
sure warning valve and transmitter, it is
necessary to register the ID code.
When registering the ID codes, per-
form the following procedure.
1Turn the engine switch switch> to IGNITION ON mode
.
2 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches and select .
3 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches and select “Vehicle
Settings”, then press “OK”.
4 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches and select “TPWS
SET”, then press “OK”.
5 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches and select “Change
wheel set”. Then press and hold
“OK” until the tire pressure warning
light starts blinking.
The change wheel set mode is activated
and registration is started. A message is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display, and “--” is displayed for
inflation pressure of each tire. Then, the tire
pressure warning light blinks rapidly for
approximately 1 minute and stays on.
6
Drive the vehicle at 25mph (40
km/h) or more for approximately
10 to 30 minutes.
When registration is completed, the tire
pressure warning light will go off and the
inflation pressure of each tire will be dis-
played on the multi-information display.
The time elapsed before registration is
completed differs according to the driving
condition and environment.
■Canceling the change wheel set mode
●If turning the engine switch switch> off when in the change wheel set
mode before driving, the change wheel
set mode is canceled.
●After driving when in the change wheel
set mode, the change wheel set mode
cannot be canceled. To cancel the mode,
perform the procedure for ID code regis-
tration again and turn the engine switch
off before driving.
●If the change wheel set mode is canceled,
the ID codes that have already been reg-
istered are communicated. When com-
munication is finished, the tire pressure
warning light will turn off.
■When ID code registration may not
operate properly
●Do not move the vehicle backward
during registration. Re gistration is started
again from the beginning and it may take
longer than usual.
WARNING
■When initializing the tire pressure
warning system
Do not initialize tire inflation pressure
without first adjusting the tire inflation
pressure to the spec ified level. Other-
wise, the tire pressure warning light may
not come on even if the tire inflation pres-
sure is low, or it may come on when the
tire inflation pressure is actually normal.

WARNING
■When installing the tire
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, lead-
ing 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 103.3 ft•lbf (140
N•m, 14.3 kgf•m) 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 your Lexus dealer.
■After using the tools
Before driving, make sure all the tools are
stored securely in place. Failure to do so
may cause injury in case of a collision or
sudden braking.
