4. While the vehicle is parked, press and
hold the tire pressure monitoring
system set switch and verify that the
tire pressure monitoring system
warning light in the instrument cluster
flashes twice and a beep sound is heard
once.
With instrument cluster type A, a
message indicating that the
initialization has been completed is
indicated in the instrument cluster.
CAUTION
If the system initialization is
performed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect
the normal tire pressure and it may
not illuminate the tire pressure
monitoring system warning light
even if a tire pressure is low, or it
may illuminate the light even if the
pressures are normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four
tires and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the
warning light turns on for a reason
other than a flat tire, the tire pressure
of all four tires may have decreased
naturally.
The system initialization will not be
performed if the switch is pressed
while the vehicle is being driven.
