Q
Electric power steering system warning light (warning buzzer)
When the battery charge becomes insufficient or the voltage temporarily drops, the electric
power steering system warning light may come on and the warning buzzer may sound.
Q
Tire pressure warning light
When a malfunction occurs in the tire pressure warning system, the tire pressure warning
light blinks to warn the driver. However, if the warning light blinks for 1 minute, and then
remains illuminated, making it difficult to determine whether the warning light was blinking
initially, turn the engine switch from off to ON and check if the warning light blinks.
Q
When the tire pressure warning light comes on
Carry out the following procedure after the tire temperature has lowered sufficiently.
O
Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust to the appropriate level.
O
If the warning light does not go out even after several minutes, check that the tire inflation
pressure is at the specified level and carry out initialization. (
P.357)
The warning light may come on again if the above operations are conducted without first
allowing the tire temperature to lower sufficiently.
Q
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as natural air leaks
and tire inflation pressure changes caused by temperature. In this case, adjusting the tire
inflation pressure will turn off the warning light (after a few minutes).

If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for 1 minute when the
engine switch is turned to ON, have it checked by any authorized Lexus retailer or Lexus
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Q
Warning buzzer
In some cases, the buzzer may not be heard due to being in a noisy location or audio sound.
WARNING
Q
If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any authorized Lexus retailer
or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The vehicle will become extremely
unstable during braking, and the ABS system may fail, which could cause an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
Q
When the electric power steering system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is restricted. When the
light comes on red, the assist to the power steering is lost and handling operations of the
steering wheel become extremely heavy. When steering wheel operations are heavier
than usual, grip the steering wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
Q
If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could cause a loss of vehi-
cle control and result in death or serious injury.
O
Decelerate to the lowest appropriate speed as soon as possible. Do not drive over 80
km/h (50 mph).
O
Check and adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
O
If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation pressure adjustment,
it is probable that you have a flat tire. Have the flat tire replaced by nearest authorized
Lexus retailer or Lexus authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
O
Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you could lose
control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
Q
If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
Q
To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly
Do not install tires with different specifications or makers, as the tire pressure warning
system may not operate properly.
