First check the following:

Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust to the appropriate level. Push-
ing the tire pressure warning reset switch will not turn off the tire pressure
warning light.
■The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
(if equipped)
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such
as natural air leaks and tire inflation pressure changes caused by temper-
ature. In this case, adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the
warning light (after several minutes).
■When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with the tire pres-
sure warning system)
The temporary spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will
not turn off even though the flat tire has been replaced with the temporary
spare tire. Replace the temporary spare tire with the repaired tire and
adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure warning light will go off
after several minutes.
■Conditions that the tire pressure warning system may not function
properly (if equipped)
P. 4 6 8

for 1 minute (if equipped)
If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for 1
minute when the engine switch is turned to “ON” position (vehicles with-
out a smart key system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart
key system), have it checked by your Toyota dealer.
■Warning buzzer

audio sound.
