4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance NOTICE n Repairing or replacing tires, wheels and tire pressure warning valve & transmit- ters l When removing or fitting the wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning valve & transmitter, contact your Lexus dealer as the tire pressure warning valve & transmitter may be damaged if not handled correctly. l When replacing tires, make sure also to replace the tire pressure warning valve & transmitter grommets. n Do not use puncture sealant sprays to repair flats Puncture sealant sprays may damage tire pressure tire pressure warning valve & transmitters. n Driving on rough roads Take particular care when driving on roads with loose surfaces or potholes. These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing the cushioning ability of the tires. In addition driving on rough roads may cause damage to the tires themselves, as well as the vehicle's wheels and body. n Low profile tires (245/40R18, P245/40R18 and 245/40ZR18 tires) Low profile tires may cause greater damage than usual to the tire wheel when receiving impact from the road surface. Therefore pay attention to the following: l Be sure to use proper tire inflation pressure. If tires are under-inflated, they may be damaged more severely. l Avoid hot holes, uneven pavement, curbs and other road hazards. Failure to do so can lead to severe tire and wheel damage. n If tire inflation pressures become low while driving Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined. 226
