WARNING
■
When inspecting or replacing tires
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause damage to parts of the drive train as well as dangerous han-
dling characteristics, which may lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
●
Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns.
Also, do not mix tires of remarkably different treadwear.
●
Do not use tire sizes other than those recommended by Lexus.
●
Do not mix differently constructed tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply tires).
●
Do not mix summer, all season and snow tires.
●
Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.
●
Vehicles with a compact spare tire: Do not tow if your vehicle has a compact spare
tire installed.
■
When initializing the tire pressure warning system
Do not initializing tire inflation pressure without first adjusting the tire inflation pressure
to the specified level. Otherwise, the tire pressure warning light may not come on even
if the tire inflation pressure is low, or it may come on when the tire inflation pressure is
actually normal.
■

cardiac resynchronization therapy-pacemakers or implantable cardioverter defibril-
lators should consult the manufacturer of the device for information about its opera-
tion under the influence of radio waves.

devices.

cardiac resynchronization therapypacemak-
ers or implantable cardioverter defibrillators

the tire pressure warning system initiators.
The radio waves may affect the operation of
such devices.
