Check that the tire pressure warning light goes off, after the all tire pressure sensing transmitters are activated. NOTES: D If the tire inflation pressure is lower than approximately 182.5 kPa (1.9 kgf / cm2, 26 psi), the warning light comes on as a low pressure warning, even after the all tire pressure sensing transmitters are activated. D If the warning light does not go off after completion of step “c”, increase the tire inflation pressure higher than approximately 210 kPa (2.1 kgf / cm 2 , 30 psi) and check that the warning light goes off after a few minutes. d) Adjust all tires to the standard tire pressure, as indicated on the tire and loading information label on the vehicle. NOTE: Tire pressure must be checked ”COLD”, meaning that the car must not have been driven on the highway for a at least 3 hours. e) Push and hold the tire pressure warning reset switch for 3 seconds until the low tire pressure warning light blinks 3 times (once every two seconds). After that, make sure the low tire pressure warning light goes off.

ROAD TEST A comprehensive road test is vital to ensure that a perfect automobile is delivered to each Lexus customer. We recommend that you map out a specific road test course that includes a variety of road conditions including stop and go, highway speed and rough road surfaces. This will help you check for squeaks, rattles, drifts, pulls and a variety of other conditions that must be corrected prior to delivery. NOTE: Make sure protective covers are in place on the seats and carpet prior to starting the road test. F01. ENGINE IDLE SPEED Check that the engine idle speed is smooth at normal operating temperature with the transmission in “N” or “P” position. F02. ENGINE OPERATION WHILE DRIVING a) Check engine performance over a broad range of driving conditions including acceleration, cruising and deceleration. b) Make sure engine operation is smooth and responsive. c) Make sure the gauges, speedometer and tachometer operations are smooth and accurate. F03. BRAKE AND PARKING BRAKE F03 a) Check braking effort. Check for pull or any abnormal noise. b) Check the parking brake: With the engine switch “IG-ON” mode check that the brake warning light comes on when the parking brake is applied (and goes off when it is released). Parking brake pedal travel at 300 N (31 kgf, 68.3 lbf): 5 - 7 clicks. or 5 - 7 clicks PD0200 F04a F04. BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT, FREE PLAY AND RESERVE DISTANCE a) Check the brake pedal height.

INITIALIZATION OF VGRS SYSTEM The DCC fuse is removed at the assembly plant to reduce parasitic current draw from the battery during transport and storage. As a result of the removal of the DCC fuse, the VGRS system will be inoperative and the steering wheel may become off-center in accordance with the steering wheel turning angle at the time when the DCC fuse was removed. After the DCC fuse is installed to its original location, the VGRS system will be operative but the steering wheel may become off-center by 5-10 degrees to the right or left. When the battery terminal has been disconnected, this condition may also appear. Therefore, please initialize the VGRS system in accordance with the following procedure after installing the DCC fuse to its original location or reconnecting the battery terminal. NOTE: Do not adjust the steering wheel centering (i.e., do not adjust tie rod ends) before initialization of the VGRS system, or the steering may be off-center on the opposite side after initialization. a) Find a place to drive straight for at least 5 seconds at a speed greater than 22 mph (35 km / h). Then drive the vehicle on a straight road at 22 mph (35 km / h) or more for 5 seconds or longer. At this point, the steering wheel will still remain off-center by 5-10 degrees. After this, make several right and left turns. The speed when turning is not critical. NOTE: In this step, the neutral position of the steering wheel is recorded in the VGRS ECU memory. 64 2006MY GS430/300 F. ROAD TEST (Continued) b) After turning the steering wheel from lock to lock at the speed of less than 90 _/sec with the vehicle at a standstill, drive straight again and the steering wheel should be centered. Confirm steering wheel is centered: Steering wheel is centered - Initialization Complete. Steering wheel is off-center - Proceed to step “c” c) Confirm initialization has been completed. 1. Access the VGRS data list using the Lexus Diagnostic Tester. 2. Confirm the STRAIGH ANG FLG parameter reads VALID. NOTE: Prior to initialization, the STRAIGH ANG FLG parameter will read INVALID. When the VGRS initialization procedure is complete, the STRAIGH ANG FLG parameter will change to VALID. D If VALID and steering is off-center, refer to the steering wheel off-center diagnostic procedure in the repair manual . D If INVALID, return to step “b” and perform driving procedure again. NOTE: If INVALID returns again, check for DTCs of VGRS system. 65 2006MY GS430/300 F. ROAD TEST (Continued) F07.
