■

When the tire pressure warning

light comes on

Inspect the tires to check if a tire is

punctured.
If a tire is punctured:



P.523

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.



If the tire pressure warning light

blinks for approximately 1 minute

then stays on

There may be a malfunction in the

tire pressure warning system. Have

the vehicle inspected by your Toyota

dealer immediately.



If the tire pressure warning light

comes on

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

off even after several minutes

have elapsed, check that the

inflation pressure of each tire is

at the specified level and perform

initialization. (



P.482)

■

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).

■

Conditions that the tire pres-

sure warning system may not

function properly



P.481

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.

WARNING

■

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

immediately.

●

If the tire pressure warning light

comes on even after tire infla-

tion 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.

519

Whe

ouble

rises

●

Avoid abrupt maneuvering and

braking.

If the vehicle tires deteriorate,

you could lose control of the

steering wheel or the brakes.

■

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 pres-

sure warning light) illuminates,

you should stop and check your

tires as soon as possible, and

inflate them to the proper pres-

sure. 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 (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).

WARNING

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.

and the tire.

When resting the tire on the

ground, place the tire so that the

wheel design faces up to avoid

scratching the wheel surface.

WARNING

■

Replacing a flat tire

●

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in seri-

ous injury:

• Lower the spare tire completely

to the ground before removing it

from under the vehicle.

• Do not try to remove the wheel

ornament by hand. Take due

care in handling the ornament to

avoid unexpected personal

injury.

• Do not touch the disc wheels or

the area around the brakes

immediately after the vehicle

has been driven.

After the vehicle has been driven

the disc wheels and the area

around the brakes will be

extremely hot. Touching these

areas with hands, feet or other

body parts while changing a tire,

etc., may result in burns.

●

Failure to follow these precau-

tions could cause the wheel

nuts to loosen and the tire to fall

off, resulting in death or serious

injury.

• Have the wheel nuts tightened

with a torque wrench as soon as

possible after changing wheels.

Steel wheel: 154 ft•lbf (209 N•m,

Aluminum wheel: 97 ft•lbf (131

N•m, 13.4 kgf•m)

• When installing a tire, only use

wheel nuts that have been spe-

cifically designed for that wheel.

• Retighten the wheel nuts within

100 miles (160 km) of driving.

• If there are any cracks or defor-

mations in the bolt screws, nut

threads or bolt holes of the

wheel, have the vehicle

inspected by your Toyota

dealer.

• Do not attach a heavily dam-

aged wheel ornament, as it may

fly off the wheel while the vehi-

cle is moving.

• When installing the wheel nuts,

be sure to install them with the

tapered ends facing inward.
