Inspect the tires to check if a tire is

punctured.
If a tire is punctured:

If none of the tires are punctured:

Turn the engine switch off then turn

it to ON. Check if the tire pressure

warning light comes on or blinks.

then stays on

There may be a malfunction in the

tire pressure warning system. Have

the vehicle inspected by your Toyota

dealer immediately.

After the temperature of the tires

has lowered sufficiently, check

the inflation pressure of each tire

and adjust them to the specified

level.

If the warning light does not turn

■

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 tem-

perature. In this case, adjusting the

tire inflation pressure will turn off the

warning light (after a few minutes).

■

When a tire is replaced with a

spare tire (vehicles with a com-

pact spare tire)

The compact spare tire is not

equipped with a tire pressure warn-

ing valve and transmitter. If a tire

goes flat, the tire pressure warning

light will not turn off even though the

flat tire has been replaced with the

spare tire. Replace the spare tire

with the repaired tire and adjust the

tire inflation pressure. The tire pres-

sure warning light will go off after a

few minutes.

■

Conditions that the tire pres-

sure warning system may not

function properly



P.286

WARNING

■

If both the ABS and the brake

system warning lights remain

Stop your vehicle in a safe place

immediately and contact your Toy-

ota dealer.

The vehicle will become

extremely unstable during brak-

ing, and the ABS system may fail,

which could cause an accident

resulting in death or serious injury.

■

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 oper-

ations 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.

■

If the tire pressure warning

light comes on

Be sure to observe the following

precautions.

Failure to do so could cause a

loss of vehicle control and result

in death or serious injury.

●

Stop your vehicle in a safe place

as soon as possible. Adjust the

tire inflation pressure immedi-

ately.

●

Vehicles with a compact spare

tire: If the tire pressure warning

light comes on even after tire

inflation pressure adjustment, it

is probable that you have a flat

tire. Check the tires. If a tire is

flat, change it with the spare tire

and have the flat tire repaired by

the nearest Toyota dealer.

●

Vehicles with emergency tire

puncture repair kit: If the tire

pressure warning light comes

on even after tire inflation pres-

sure adjustment, it is probable

that you have a flat tire. Check

the tires. If a tire is flat, repair

the flat tire by using emergency

tire puncture repair kit.

●

Avoid abrupt maneuvering and

braking.

If the vehicle tires deteriorate,

you could lose control of the

steering wheel or the brakes.

WARNING

■

If a blowout or sudden air

leakage should occur

The tire pressure warning system

may not activate immediately.

■

Maintenance of the tires

Each tire, including the spare (if

provided), should be checked

monthly when cold and inflated to

the inflation pressure recom-

mended by the vehicle manufac-

turer on the vehicle placard or tire

inflation pressure label (tire and

load information label). (If your

vehicle has tires of a different size

than the size indicated on the

vehicle placard or tire inflation

pressure label [tire and load infor-

mation label], you should deter-

mine the proper tire inflation

pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your

vehicle has been equipped with a

tire pressure monitoring system

(TPMS-tire pressure warning sys-

tem) that illuminates a low tire

pressure telltale (tire pressure

warning light) when one or more

of your tires is significantly

under-inflated. Accordingly, when

the low tire pressure telltale (tire

pressure warning light) illumi-

nates, you should stop and check

your tires as soon as possible,

and inflate them to the proper

pressure. Driving on a signifi-

cantly under-inflated tire causes

the tire to overheat and can lead

to tire failure. Under-inflation also

reduces fuel efficiency and tire

tread life, and may affect the vehi-

cle’s handling and stopping ability.

Please note that the TPMS (tire

pressure warning system) is not a

substitute for proper tire mainte-

nance, and it is the driver’s

responsibility to maintain correct

tire pressure, even if under-infla-

tion has not reached the level to

trigger illumination of the TPMS

low tire pressure telltale (tire pres-

sure warning light).

Your vehicle has also been

equipped with a TPMS (tire pres-

sure warning system) malfunc-

tion indicator to indicate when the

system is not operating properly.

The TPMS (tire pressure warning

system) malfunction indicator is

combined with the low tire pres-

sure telltale (tire pressure warning

light). When the system detects a

malfunction, the telltale will flash

for approximately one minute and

then remain continuously illumi-

nated. This sequence will con-

tinue upon subsequent vehicle

start-ups as long as the malfunc-

tion exists. When the malfunction

indicator is illuminated, the sys-

tem may not be able to detect or

signal low tire pressure as

intended.

TPMS (tire pressure warning sys-

tem) malfunctions may occur for a

variety of reasons, including the

installation of replacement or

alternate tires or wheels on the

vehicle that prevent the TPMS

(tire pressure warning system)

from functioning properly. Always

check the TPMS (tire pressure

warning system) malfunction tell-

tale after replacing one or more

tires or wheels on your vehicle to

ensure that the replacement or

alternate tires and wheels allow

the TPMS (tire pressure warning

system) to continue to function

properly.

Have the vehicle inspected by

your Toyota dealer.

If you have a flat tire

(vehicles without

spare tire)

Your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tire, but instead
is equipped with an emer-
gency tire puncture repair
kit.

A puncture caused by a nail
or screw passing through
the tire tread can be
repaired temporarily using
the emergency tire puncture
repair kit. (The kit contains a
bottle of sealant. The seal-
ant can be used only once
to temporarily repair one
tire without removing the
nail or screw from the tire.)
After temporarily repairing
the tire with the kit, have the
tire repaired or replaced by
your Toyota dealer.

WARNING

■

If you have a flat tire

Do not continue driving with a flat

tire.

Driving even a short distance with

a flat tire can damage the tire and

the wheel beyond repair, which

could result in an accident.

Before repairing the tire

Whe

ouble

ises



Stop the engine.



Turn on the emergency flash-
ers.



Check the degree of the tire
damage.

A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a nail or screw pass-
ing through the tire tread.
• Do not remove the nail or

screw from the tire. Removing
the object may widen the
opening and make emer-
gency repair with the repair kit
impossible.

• To avoid sealant leakage,

move the vehicle until the
area of the puncture, if
known, is positioned at the
top of the tire.
