Maintenance and care
■The initialization operation (vehicles with a tire pressure warning sys-
tem)
●Make sure to carry out initialization after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before carrying out initialization or tire
inflation pressure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the engine switch off during initialization, it is
not necessary to press the reset switch again as initialization will restart
automatically when the engine switch has been turned to IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start system) or engine switch to the
“ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system) for the next
time.
●If you accidentally press the reset switch when initialization is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level when the tires are
cold, and conduct initialization again.
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system (vehicles with
a tire pressure warning system)
The warning of the tire pressure warning system will change in accordance
with driving conditions. For this reason, the system may give a warning even
if the tire pressure does not reach a low enough level, or if the pressure is
higher than the pressure that was adjusted to when the system was initial-
ized.
■When initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed (vehi-
cles with a tire pressure warning system)
Initialization can be completed in a few minutes. However, in the following
cases, the settings have not been recorded and the system will not operate
properly. If repeated attempts to record tire inflation pressure settings are
unsuccessful, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as pos-
sible.
●When operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure
warning light does not blink 3 times.
●After driving for a certain period of time since the initialization has been
completed, the warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute.
■Registering ID codes (vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)
The ID codes of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for two sets
of wheels can be registered.
It is not necessary to register the ID codes when replacing normal tires with
snow tires, if the ID codes for the wheels of both normal tires and snow tires
are registered beforehand.
For information about changing ID codes, ask any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Replace the engine oil filter when the engine oil change reminder light does
not come on even if you have driven over 15000 km (9300 miles) after the

●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.

tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
