Default Tire Pressure

Does anybody know how to check the tire pressure on all 4 tires thru the dashboard features, etc ? I know I can get a gauge and do it manually, but I know with my two previous Lexus' I was able to check thru the settings on my dash. I have looked online and YouTube as well and dont see anything. I have aftermarket wheels, so I would like to keep an eye on them. Thank you in advance !!!

its on the dash, you need to use your up and down arrows to scroll through different options, i also think the care needs to on for it getting a good reading.

It's on the instrument panel and is accessible using the up down arrow keys on the left side of the steering wheel. Please take a look at the manual that shows you how to setup the car as well as the instrument display.

Facing the steering wheel, use the d-pad to your left. Scroll left to the icon marked “I”. Then scroll up or down until you see the tire pressure monitor.

Speaking of tire pressure. What's everyone running at? Mine is 31 all around but noticed the door sill sticker recommends 35psi.

35 all around. I might let it drop to 33 before I inflate them. My old LS460 L regularly went down to 31 before I inflated them to get back to recommended tire pressure.
