When backing up the vehicle, Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) uses an indicator
light in the outside mirror and an audible sound to alert the driver if another
vehicle is approaching from the left or right.
Refer to the Owner‘s Manual for more details on this system before attempting

SET” button
until the indicator blinks three times.
2. Wait a few minutes to allow
initialization to complete.
Tire Pressure Monitoring (warning)
System
After adjusting tire pressures, or after tires have been rotated or replaced, turn
the engine switch to “ON” and press and hold the “
SET” button until indicator
blinks three times. Let the vehicle sit for a few minutes to allow initialization to
complete.
Refer to the load label on the door jamb or the Owner’s Manual for tire inflation
specifications.
If the tire pressure indicator flashes for more than 60 seconds and then remains
on, take the vehicle to your local Toyota dealer.
NOTE: The warning light may come on due to temperature changes or changes
in tire pressure from natural air leakage. If the system has not been initialized
recently, setting the tire pressures to factory specifications should turn off the
light.
