Raise the tire.
While raising, secure the tire, taking
care that the tire goes straight up with-
out catching on any surrounding part, to
prevent it from flying forward during a
collision or sudden braking.
After the tire goes half way up, check
that the suspended chain is able to enter
the tire hole, for proper storage.
Tightening torque:
33.2 ft•lbf (45 N•m, 4.6 kgf•m)
Confirm that the tire is not loose
after tightening:Push and pull the tire
Try rotating
Visually check to ensure the tire is
not hung on surrounding parts.
If looseness or misassembly exists, repeat step and step .

NOTICE
■When stowing the flat tire
Ensure that there is no object caught between the tire and the vehicle underbody.
■When replacing the tires
●When removing or fitting the wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter, contact your Lexus dealer as the tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitter may be damaged if not handled correctly.
●Replace the grommets for the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters as well.
■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 trans-
mitter may not operate properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact your Lexus dealer 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. 491)

■Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline
●If you use gasohol in your vehicle, be sure that it has an octane rating no lower than 91.
●Lexus does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methanol.
■Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains on octane enhancing additive called MMT (Methylcy clopenta-
dienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Lexus does not recommend the use of gasoline that contains MMT. If fuel containing
MMT is used, your emission control system may be adversely affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the instru ment cluster may come on. If this happens,
contact your Lexus dealer for service.
■If your engine knocks
●Consult your Lexus dealer.
●You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while accelerating or driv-
ing uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.
●Use only gasoline containing up to 15% etha-
nol.
DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline that
could contain more than 15% ethanol, includ-
ing from any pump labeled E30, E50, E85
(which are only some examples of fuel con-
taining more than 15% ethanol).DO NOT use gasoline con-
taining more than 15% ethanol.
(30% ethanol)
(50% ethanol)

This information has been prepared in accordance with regulations issued by the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administra tion of the U.S. Department of Trans-
portation.
It provides the purchasers and/or prospe ctive purchasers of Lexus vehicles with
information on uniform tire quality grading.
Your Lexus dealer will help answer any ques tions you may have as you read this infor-
mation.
■DOT quality grades
All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in
addition to these grades. Quality grades can be found where applicable on
the tire sidewall between tread shoulder and maximum section width.
For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
■Treadwear
The treadwear grade is a comparative rati ng based on the wear rate of the tire
when tested under controlled conditio ns on a specified government test
course.
For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1 - 1/2) times as well on
the government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends upon the actua l conditions of their use.
Performance may differ significantly from the norm due to variations in driving
habits, service practices and difference s in road characteristics and climate.
■Traction AA, A, B, C
The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B and C, and they rep-
resent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled
conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete.
A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.
Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight
ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering (turning) traction.
