Maintenance and care ■
Tire inflation pressure check interval
You should check tire inflation pressure ever y two weeks, or at least once a month. Do
not forget to check the spare. ■
Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure
Driving with incorrect tire inflation pressure may result in the following:●
Reduced fuel economy ●
Reduced driving comfort and poor handling ●
Reduced tire life due to wear ●
Reduced safety ●
Damage to the drive train
If a tire needs frequent inflating, ha ve it checked by your Lexus dealer.■
Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure
When checking tire in flation pressure, ob serve the following:●
Check only when the tires are cold.
If your vehicle has been parked for at le ast 3 hours and has not been driven for more
than 1 mile or 1.5 km, you will get an accu rate cold tire inflat ion pressure reading.●
Always use a tire pressure gauge.
It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly inflated based only on its appearance. ●
It is normal for the tire inflat ion pressure to be higher after driving as heat is generated
in the tire. Do not reduce tire inflation pressure after driving.●
Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight.
Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is balanced.
