Turn the guide pin clockwise to tighten it

until it stops.

6

Remove all the wheel bolts and the
tire.

When resting the tire on the ground, place

the tire so that the wheel design faces up to

avoid scratching the wheel surface.

1

Remove any dirt or foreign matter
from the wheel contact surfaces
and wheel bolts.

If foreign matter is on the wheel contact

surface, the wheel bolts may loosen while

the vehicle is in motion, causing the tire to

come off.

2

Align a wheel bolt hole on the spare
tire with the guide pin, and set the
spare tire on the guide pin.

Securely set the spare tire so that its wheel

is touching the contact surface.

3

Loosely tighten each wheel bolt by
hand or using a wheel bolt socket

.

Push the spare tire to prevent it from falling.
Do not use the wheel bolt socket for any-

thing other than loosely tightening the

wheel bolts by hand.

WARNING

Replacing a flat tire

Do not touch the disc wheels or the area

around the brakes immediately after the

vehicle has been driven. After the vehicle

has been driven the disc wheels and the

area around the brakes will be extremely

hot. Touching these areas with hands,

feet or other body parts while changing a

tire, etc. may result in burns.

The compact spare tire

The compact spare tire is identified by the

label “TEMPORARY USE ONLY” on

the tire sidewall.

Use the compact spare tire temporarily,

and only in an emergency.

Make sure to check the tire inflation pres-

sure of the compact spare tire. (

P.372)

When using the compact spare tire

As the compact spare tire is not equipped

with a tire pressure warning valve and trans-

mitter, low inflation pressure of the spare

tire will not be indicated by the tire pressure

warning system. Also, if you replace the

compact spare tire after the tire pressure

warning light comes on, the light remains

on.

When the compact spare tire is

equipped

The vehicle becomes lower when driving

with the compact spare tire compared to

when driving with standard tires.

If you have a flat rear tire on a road cov-

ered with snow or ice (vehicles with

front and rear tires of the same size)

Install the compact spare tire on one of the

front wheels of the vehicle. Perform the fol-

lowing steps and fit tire chains to the rear

tires:

1

Replace a front tire with the compact

spare tire.

2

Replace the flat rear tire with the tire

removed from the front of the vehicle.

3

Fit tire chains to the rear tires.

WARNING

Installing the compact spare tire

Failure to follow these precautions could

cause the wheel bolts to loosen and the

tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious

injury.

WARNING

Never apply oil or grease to the wheel

bolts or their contact surface on the

wheel .

Doing so may cause the wheel bolts to

be tightened excessively, leading to

damage to the wheel bolts, the

threaded portion the wheel bolts install

to

, or the wheel.

Also, the wheel bolts may come loose,

possibly leading to the wheel coming

off, causing a serious accident.

If oil or grease is attached to either of

these parts, remove it.

Steel wheel

sively. Doing so may cause the wheel

bolts, the threads of the wheel hub, or the

wheel to be damaged.

Guide pin

When removing or installing a tire, make

sure to use the guide pin.

Also, the guide pin is made of resin. It

may be damaged if the wheel is placed

anywhere other than

or if a large

amount of force is applied to the guide

pin.

When using the compact spare tire

which they were connected.

Once the engine starts, have the vehi-
cle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.

Starting the engine when the battery is

discharged

The engine cannot be started by push-start-

ing.

To prevent battery discharge

Turn off the headlights and the audio sys-

tem while the engine is off.

Turn off any unnecessary electrical com-

ponents when the vehicle is running at a

low speed for an extended period, such

as in heavy traffic.

Charging the battery

The electricity stored in the battery will dis-

charge gradually even when the vehicle is

not in use, due to natural discharge and the

draining effects of certain electrical appli-

ances. If the vehicle is left for a long time,

the battery may discharge, and the engine

may be unable to start. (The battery

recharges automatically during driving.)

When recharging or replacing the bat-

tery

In some cases, it may not be possible to

unlock the doors using the smart access

system with push-button start when the

battery is discharged. Use the wireless

remote control or the mechanical key to

lock or unlock the doors.

The engine may not start on the first

attempt after the battery has recharged

but will start normally after the second

attempt. This is not a malfunction.

The engine switch mode is memorized by

the vehicle. When the battery is recon-

nected, the system will return to the

mode it was in before the battery was dis-

charged. Before disconnecting the bat-

tery, turn the engine switch off. If you are

unsure what mode the engine switch was

in before the battery discharged, be

especially careful when reconnecting the

battery.

WARNING

Avoiding battery fires or explosions

Observe the following precautions to

prevent accidentally igniting the flamma-

ble gas that may be emitted from the bat-

tery:

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 metal 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

battery.

Battery precautions

The battery contains poisonous and cor-

rosive acidic electrolyte, while related

parts contain lead and lead compounds.

Observe the following precautions when

handling the battery:
