When Driving
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
NOTE
Because this system detects slight changes in tyre conditions, the timing of the warning
may be faster or slower in the following cases:
 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of tyres is different from the specifi cation. 
 The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tyre is different from the others, or the level of
tyre wear is excessively different between them.
  A run-fl at tyre, studless tyre, snow tyre, or tyre chains are used. 
 An emergency tyre is used (The tyre pressure monitoring system warning light may
fl ash and then continue illuminating).

 A tyre is repaired using the emergency fl at tyre repair kit. 
 The tyre pressure is excessively higher than the specifi ed pressure, or the tyre pressure
is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tyre burst during driving.
  The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle
is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.
  The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road. 
 Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during
aggressive driving on a winding road.
  Load on the vehicle is applied to a tyre such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of
the vehicle.
  System initialization has not been implemented with the specifi ed tyre pressure.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization
In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that the
system operates normally.
 


 A tyre pressure is adjusted.



 Tyre rotation is performed.



 A tyre or wheel is replaced.



 The battery is replaced or completely
drained.
 


 The tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.
Initialization method
1. Park the car in a safe place and fi rmly
apply the parking brake.
2. Let the tyres cool, then adjust the tyre
pressure of all four (4) tyres to the
specifi ed pressure indicated on the tyre
pressure label located on the door jamb
of the driver's door (door open).
Refer to Tyres on page 9-13 .
3. Switch the ignition ON.
4. While the vehicle is parked, press
and hold the tyre pressure monitoring
system set switch and verify that
the tyre pressure monitoring system
warning light in the instrument cluster
fl ashes twice and a beep sound is heard
once.
CAUTION
If the system initialization is performed
without adjusting the tyre pressure, the
system cannot detect the normal tyre
pressure and it may not illuminate the
tyre pressure monitoring system warning
light even if a tyre pressure is low, or
it may illuminate the light even if the
pressures are normal.
Adjust the tyre pressure on all four
tyres and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the
warning light turns on for a reason other
than a fl at tyre, the tyre pressure of all
four tyres may have decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed while
the vehicle is being driven.
