*: Mainly used for the tire inflation function.
Low Tire Pressure Warning Control UnitINFOID:0000000006225490
 After the low tire pressure warning control unit (1) receives the tire pressure signal from the tire pressure receiver, it controls the oper-
ation of the low tire pressure warning lamp, hazard warning lamp,
and horn.
NOTE:
The hazard warning lamp and the horn are used for the tire infla-
tion indicator function.
 Performs self-diagnosis of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS).
 Controls tire inflation indicator function.
TransmitterINFOID:0000000006225491
The transmitter (1) is installed at the position of the air valve on the
road wheel (2). It measures the ti re pressure and transmits the tire
pressure information by radio waves.

SYSTEM
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006225494
 During driving, the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) receives the signal transmitted from transmitter
installed in each wheel. The low tire pressure warning control unit has pressure judgment and trouble diag-
nosis functions. When the low tire pressure warning control unit detects low inflation pressure or another
unusual symptom, the low tire pressure warning lamps in the combination meter comes on.
 If the tire pressure is less than the specified value, t he low tire pressure warning lamp illuminates that the tire
pressure is less than the specified value.
 Activates the TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring Sy stem) when the vehicle speed is 40 km/h (25 MPH) or
more.
 The tire pressure information for each wheel is displayed on the vehicle information display.
 Added tire inflation indicator function to TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System). Refer to WT-10, "
Tire
Inflation Indicator Function".

SYSTEM
*: Mainly used for the tire inflation indicator function.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LAMP CONTROL CONDITION
Uses CAN communication from the low tire pressure warning control unit to illuminate the low tire pressure
warning lamp on the combination meter.
*: Tire pressure at each condition differs.
HAZARD WARNING LAMP CONTROL CONDITION
The low tire pressure warning control unit transmits a hazard request signal to BCM. BCM blinks the hazard
warning lamp, according to the signal.
The hazard warning lamp blinks under the following conditions.
Condition of Blinking The Hazard Warning Lamp When wake-up of registered wheel has been completed. Refer to WT-28, "Work Procedure".
 When ID registration is completed. Refer to WT-29, "
Work Procedure".
 During the use of the tire inflation indicator function.
HORN CONTROL CONDITION
The low tire pressure warning control unit transmits a horn request signal to BCM. BCM controls horn sound,
according to the signal.
The horn sounds under the following condition.
Condition of Sounding Horn During the use of tire inflation indicator function.
Tire Inflation Indicator FunctionINFOID:0000000006225495
 This function operates only when the A/T shift selector position is in P-range with the ignition switch ON or
with the engine started.
NOTE:
The tire inflation indicator function is recommended to use with the engine stopped.
 This function informs the driver of the satisfaction of the recom- mended COLD tire pressure.
The hazard warning lamp blinks when reaching the recommended
COLD tire pressure during radio wave reception. After reaching the
recommended COLD tire pressure, the horn sounds once and the
hazard warning lamp stops blinking.
 When tire pressure becomes a value equal to or more than 30 kPa
(0.31 kg/cm
2, 4 psi) more than the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure, the hazard warning lamp and the horn operates three times.
After deflating the tire and reaching the recommended COLD tire
pressure, the horn sounds only once and the hazard warning lamp
stops blinking.
NOTE:
 After starting to inflate the tire, it takes a few seconds for the tire inflation indicator to function.
ABS actuator and electric unit (con-
trol unit) Transmits the vehicle speed signal (ABS) via CAN communication for low tire pressure warning

TIRE INFLATION INDICATOR DOES NOT ACTIVATE
DescriptionINFOID:0000000006225540
The tire inflation indicator does not function while inflat ing a tire when the A/T shift selector position is in P-
range with the ignition switch ON or with the engine started.
NOTE:
 After starting to inflate the tire, it takes a few seconds for the tire inflation indicator to function.
 If there is no response for approximately 15 seconds or mo re after inflating the tires, cancel the use of the
tire inflation indicator function or move the vehicle approximately 1 m (3.2 ft) backward or forward to try
again. The air filler pressure may be weak or out of service area.
 For tire inflation indicator, Refer to WT-10, "
Tire Inflation Indicator Function".
