Situations in which the tire pressure warning system may not operate
properly (if equipped)
●In the following cases, the tire pressure warning system may not operate
properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used.
• A tire has been replaced with a tire t hat is not an OE (Original Equipment)
tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a tire that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains etc. are equipped.
• An auxiliary-supported run-flat tire is equipped.
• 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 the tire inflation pressure is extremely higher than the specified level.
• If tires not equipped with the tire pr essure warning valves and transmit-
ters 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 wheel set selected does not match the wheel set fitted to the vehi- cle, in case a second wheel set has been registered.
● Performance may be affected in the following situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electri-
cal noise
• When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other wireless communication device
● When the vehicle is parked, the time taken for the warning to start or go off
could be extended.
● When tire inflation pressure declines rapidly for example when a tire has
burst, the warning may not function.
■ The initialization operation (vehicles with the 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 to the “LOCK” position
(vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with a smart
entry & start system) during initialization, it is not necessary to restart the ini-
tialization again as initialization will restart automatically when the engine
switch has been turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry
& start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start
system) for the next time.
● If you accidentally start the initialization when initialization is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level when the tires are
cold, and conduct initialization again.
