■While charging, noise enters the AM
radio
Turn off the wireless charger and confirm
that the noise has decreased. If the noise
decreases, continuously pushing the power
supply switch of the wireless charger for 2
seconds, the frequency of the charger can
be changed and the noise can be reduced.
Also, on that occasion, the operation indi-
cator light will flash orange 2 times.
■Important points of the wireless charger
●If the electronic key cannot be detected
within the vehicle interior, charging can-
not be done. When the door is opened
and closed, charging may be temporarily
suspended.
●When charging, the wireless charging
device and portable device will get
warmer, however this is not a malfunction.
When a portable device gets warm while
charging, charging may stop due to the protection function on the portable
device side. In this case, when the tem-
perature of the port
able device drops
significantly, charge again.
■Operation sounds
When the power supply is turned on, while
searching for the portable device a sound
will be produced, however this is not a mal-
function.

Maintenance and care
■The tire pressure warning system
must be initialized in the following
circumstances:
 When adjusting the tire inflation
pressure.
 When the tire inflation pressure is
changed such as when changing
traveling speed.
 When rotating the tires.
 When changing the tire.
When the tire pressure warning system
is initialized, the cu rrent tire inflation
pressure is set as the benchmark pres-
sure.
■How to initialize the tire pressure
warning system
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and
turn the power switch off.
Initialization cannot be performed while
the vehicle is moving.
2 Adjust the tire inflation pressure to
the specified cold tire inflation pres-
sure level.
Make sure to adjust th e tire pressure to the
specified cold tire infl ation pressure level.
The tire pressure warning system will oper-
ate based on this pressure level.
3 Turn the power switch to ON
mode. 4
Press or of the meter con-
trol switches and select .
5 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches, select the “Vehicle
Settings” and then press .
6 Press or of the meter con-
trol switches, select the “TPMS”
and then press and hold the .
The “Tire Pressure Recalibrating. Please
Wait Until Complete” will be displayed on
the multi-information display and the tire
pressure warning light will blink slowly 3
times.
When the message di sappears, initializa-
tion is complete.
■Initializing the tire pressure warning sys-
tem
Initialize the system wi th the tire inflation
pressure adjusted to the specified level
■The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry out initialization after
adjusting the tire inflation pressure. Also,
make sure the tires are cold before carry-
ing out initialization or tire inflation pres-
sure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the power
switch off during initialization, it is not
necessary to press the reset switch again
as initialization will restart automatically
when the power switch has been turned
to ON mode for the next time.

LEXUS NX300h Owners Manual_USA_M78578_en
●If you accidentally press the reset switch
when initialization is not necessary, adjust
the tire inflation pres sure to the specified
level when the tires are cold, and conduct
initialization again.
■Warning performance of the tire pres-
sure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning
system will change in accordance with the
conditions under which it was initialized. For
this reason, the system may give a warning
even if the tire pressure does not reach a
low enough level, or if the pressure is higher
than the pressure that was adjusted to when
the system was initialized.
■When initialization of the tire pressure
warning system has failed
Initialization can be completed in a few min-
utes. However, in the following cases, the
settings have not been recorded and the
system will not operate properly. If repeated
attempts to record tire inflation pressure
settings are unsuccessful, have the vehicle
inspected by your Lexus dealer.
●When initializing the tire pressure warn-
ing system, the tire pressure warning light
does not blink 3 times.
●After carrying out the initialization proce-
dure, the tire pressure warning light
blinks for 1 minute then stays on after
driving for 20 minutes.
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.
Have the ID code registered by your
Lexus dealer.
WARNING
■When initializing the tire pressure
warning system
Do not initializing 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.

When trouble arises
■When replacing the 12-volt battery
●Use a 12-volt battery that the case size is
same as the previous one (LN2), 20 hour
rate capacity (20HR) is equivalent
(60Ah) or greater, and performance rat-
ing (CCA) is equivalent (460A) 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 hybrid system may
not be able to start.
●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 and confirm that it is firmly
connected to the hole section of the vehi-
cle.
• 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.)
For details, consult your Lexus dealer.

WARNING
■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:
●Make sure each jumper cable is con-
nected to the correct terminal and that
it is not unintentionally in contact with
any other than the intended terminal.
●Do not allow the other end of the
jumper cable connected to the “+” ter-
minal to come into contact with any
other parts or meta l surfaces in the
area, such as brackets or unpainted
metal.
●Do not allow the + and - clamps of the
jumper cables to come into contact
with each other.
●Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette
lighters or allow open flame near the
12-volt battery.
■12-volt Battery precautions
The 12-volt battery contains poisonous
and corrosive acidic electrolyte, while
related parts contain lead and lead com-
pounds. Observe the following precau-
tions when handling the 12-volt battery:
●When working with the 12-volt battery,
always wear safety glasses and take
care not to allow any battery fluids
(acid) to come into contact with skin,
clothing or the vehicle body.
●Do not lean over the 12-volt battery.
●In the event that battery fluid comes
into contact with the skin or eyes,
immediately wash the affected area
with water and seek medical attention.
Place a wet sponge or cloth over the
affected area until medical attention
can be received.
●Always wash your ha nds after handling
the 12-volt battery support, terminals,
