dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and
equipped professional
immediately.
When the warning light
flashes or illuminates (and a
buzzer does not sound):

■ Front passenger detection sensor and passenger seat belt reminder
● If luggage is placed on the front passenger seat, the front passenger
detection sensor may cause the warning light to flash, even if a passen-
ger is not sitting in the seat.
● If a cushion is placed on the seat, the sensor may not detect a passen-
ger, and the warning light may not operate properly.
■ When the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning light system)
Inspect the appearance of the tire to check that the tire is not punctured.
If the tire is punctured: P. 560, 577
If the tire is not punctured:
Carry out the following procedure after the tire temperature has lowered suffi-
ciently.
● Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust to the appropriate level.
● If the warning light does not go out even after several minutes, check that
the tire inflation pressure is at the specified level and carry out initialization.
The warning light may come on again if the above operations are conducted
without first allowing the tire temperature to lower sufficiently.
■The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
(vehicles with a tire pr essure warning light system)
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as
natural air leaks and tire inflation pressure changes caused by temperature.
In this case, adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the warning light
(after a few minutes).
■ When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with a tire pressure
warning light system)
The spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitter. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will not turn off even
though the flat tire has been replaced wi th the spare tire. Replace the spare
tire with the repaired tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pres-
sure warning light will go off after a few minutes.

■ If the tire pressure warning system is not functioning (vehicles with a
tire pressure warning light system)
The tire pressure warning system will be disabled in the following conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
● If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
are used
● If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is not
registered in the tire pressure warning computer
● If the tire inflation pressure is 380 kPa (3.9 kgf/cm2 or bar, 55 psi) or
higher
The tire pressure warning system may be disabled in the following condi-
tions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
● If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies are
nearby
● If a radio set at a similar frequency is in use in the vehicle
● If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed
● If there is a lot of snow or ice on the vehicle, particularly around the
wheels or wheel housings
● If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used (Even if you use Toyota wheels,
the tire pressure warning system may not work properly with some types
of tires.)
● If tire chains are used
■ If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for
1 minute (vehicles with a tire pressure warning light system)
If the tire pressure warning light frequently comes on after blinking for 1
minute when the engine switch (vehicles without smart entry & start system)
or the “ENGINE START STOP” switch (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem) is turned on, have it checked by any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

WARNING
■ If the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with a tire pres-
sure warning light system)
Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.
● Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the tire infla-
tion pressure immediately.
● If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation pressure
adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a tire
is flat, change it with the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the
nearest any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.
● Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
■ If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning light system)
The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
NOTICE
■ To ensure the tire pressure warning system operates properly (vehi-
cles with a tire pressure warning light system)
Do not install tires with different specifications or makers, as the tire pres-
sure warning system may not operate properly.
