RC F Owner's Manual
Turn the compressor switch off and then
check the tire inflation pressure. Being
careful not to over inflate, check and
repeat the inflation procedure until the rec-
ommended tire inflation pressure is
reached.
If the tire inflation pressure is still lower than
the recommended level after inflation for
10 minutes (35 minutes at low tempera-
ture) with the switch on, the tire is too dam-
aged to be repaired. Turn the compressor
switch off and contact your Lexus dealer.
If the tire inflation pressure exceeds the
recommended level, let out some air to
adjust the tire inflation pressure. (
