• The filled in tire sealant closes

the damage from the inside
when it hardens.

• Follow the instructions on

using the tire repair set found
on the compress or and seal-
ant bottle.

• The use of a tire repair set

can be ineffective if the tire
puncture measures above
approx. 0.16 in/4 mm.

• Do not remove foreign objects

that have penetrated the tire.
Remove foreign objects only
when they are visibly protrud-
ing from the tire.

• The compressor can be used

to check the tire inflation pres-
sure.

Storage for the tire repair set is pro-
vided in the cargo area behind the
right side trim panel.

• Set the parking brake.
• Turn the steering wheel until

• As soon as permitted by the

traffic flow, have all vehicle
occupants get out and make
sure that they remain outside
the hazardous area such as
behind a guardrail.

• If necessary, set up the haz-

ard triangle or hazard warning
lights at an appropriate dis-

Let the compressor run for
max. 10 minutes to fill in the
tire sealant and reach a tire
pressure of 2.5 bar/36 psi.
While the tire is being filled
with tire sealant, the tire pres-
sure can briefly reach
approx. 6 bar/87 psi. Do not
turn off the compressor in this
phase.

Switch off the compressor.

Read the tire pressure on the
tire pressure display of the com-
pressor. The tire pressure must
be at least 2.5 bar/36 psi.

If the tire pressure is too high,
reduce the tire pressure with the
pressure reducing valve on the
compressor.

Safety information

WARNING

If the exhaust pipe is blocked or

ventilation is insufficient, harmful

exhaust gases can penetratethe

vehicle. The exhaust gases con-

tain pollutants which are colorless

and odorless. In enclosed areas,

exhaust gases can also accumu-

late outside of the vehicle. There

is adanger to life. Keep the

exhaust pipe free and ensure suf-

ficient ventilation.

NOTICE

The compressor can overheat

during extended operation. There

is a risk of damageto property. Do

not run the compressor for more

than 10 minutes.

If tires are being used that are
not specified on the tire inflation
pressure details on the vehicle,
refer to page 272, such as tires
with special approval, the sys-
tem needs to be actively reset.
The system will then take over
the actual tire inflation pressures
as the target pressures.
When operating the system,
also note the additional informa-
tion found in the Tire inflation
pressure, refer to page 272.

The following conditions must
be met for the system; other-
wise, reliable flagging of a loss
of tire inflation pressure is not
assured:
• After each tire or wheel

change, the system detects

and updates the mounted
tires and displays them after a
short trip on the Control Dis-
play.

Enter the information about the
mounted tires in the tire settings
when the system does not automat-
ically detect the tires.

• TPM does not activate until

after driving for a few minutes:

• After a tire or wheel replacement.
• Reset, for tires without special

approval.

• After changing the tire setting.

• For tires with special

approval:

• After a tire or wheel replacement,

a reset was performed with the
correct tire inflation pressure.

• After the tire inflation pressure

was adjusted to a new value, a
reset was performed.

• Wheels with TPM wheel elec-

tronics.

The information about the
mounted tires can be entered in
the tire settings if the system
does not automatically detect
the tires.
The tire sizes of the mounted
tires can be gathered from the
tire inflation pressure details on
the vehicle, refer to page 272, or
directly on the tires.

Safety information

WARNING

The display of the target pres-

sures is not a substitute for the

tire inflation pressure details on

the vehicle. Incorrect entries in

the tire settings can lead to incor-

rect target tire inflation pressure

values. In this case, it cannot be

guaranteed that the notification of

a loss of tire inflation pressure will

be reliable. There is a risk of injury

and risk of damage to property.

Ensure that the tire sizes of the

mounted tires are displayed cor-

rectly and match the details on the

tires and on the vehicle.

Actions in the event of a
flat tire

295

5-1. MOBILITY

MOBILITY

Repair the flat tire, e.g., with
a flat tire kit or by changing
the wheel.

Use of sealant, for instance from
the flat tire kit, may damage the
TPM wheel electronics. Have
the electronics replaced at the
next opportunity.

The tire inflation pressure
depends on the tire's tempera-
ture.
Driving or exposure to the sun
will increase the tire's tempera-
ture, thus increasing the tire
inflation pressure.
The tire inflation pressure is
reduced when the tire tempera-
ture falls again.
These circumstances may
cause a warning when tempera-
tures fall very sharply.
Following a temperature-related
warning, the target pressures
are displayed on the Control
Display again after a short dis-
tance.

The system cannot indicate sud-
den serious tire damage caused
by external circumstances.

Tires with special approval: the
system will not function correctly
if a reset was not performed, for
example a flat tire may be indi-
cated although the tire inflation
pressures are correct.

• A wheel without TPM wheel

electronics, such as an emer-
gency wheel, is mounted:
have the wheels checked, if
needed.

• Malfunction: have the system

checked.

• Interference caused by sys-

tems or devices with the
same radio frequency: after
leaving the area of the inter-
ference, the system automati-
cally becomes active again.

• For tires with special

approval: the system was

5-1. MOBILITY

Perform a system reset again.

• Tire Pressure Monitor mal-

function: have the system
checked by your Toyota
dealer.

• Each tire, including the spare

(if provided) should be
checked monthly when cold
and inflated to the inflation
pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a dif-
ferent size than the size indi-
cated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label,
you should determine 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) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale when one
or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. Accord-
ingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possi-
ble, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly 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 is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and
it is the driver's responsibility
to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure tell-
tale. Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indi-
cate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pres-
sure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the tell-
tale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then
remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When
the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS 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 from func-

Declaration according to

tioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function prop-
erly.

If a tire is punctured and loses
pressure, it is not necessary to
replace the tire immediately if a
tire repair kit (Mobility System) is
used.
If needed, the tools for changing
wheels are available as acces-
sories from your Toyota dealer.
