Drive the vehicle at approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) or 
more for approximately 10 to 30 
minutes until the inflation pres-
sure of each tire is displayed on 
the multi-information display.
When initialization is complete, 
the inflation pressure of each 
tire will be displayed on the 
multi-information display.
Even if the vehicle is not driven 
at approximately 25 mph (40 
km/h) or more, initialization can 
be completed by driving for a 
long time. However, if initializa-
tion does not complete after 
driving for 1 hour or more, park 
the vehicle in a safe place for 
approximately 20 minutes and 
then drive the vehicle again.
■Initializing the tire pressure 
warning system
Initialize the syst em with the tire 
inflation pressure  adjusted to the 
specified level.
■Initialization procedure
●Make sure to carry out initializa-
tion 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 
power switch off during initializa-
tion, it is not necessary to restart 
the initialization ag ain as initializa-
tion will restart aut omatically when 
the power switch has been turned 
to ON for the next time.
●If you accidentally restart the ini-
tialization when ini tialization is not 
necessary, adjust the tire inflation 
pressure to the  specified level  when the tires are cold, and con-
duct initialization again.
●While the position of each tire is 
being determined and the inflation 
pressures are not being displayed 
on the multi-information display, if 
the inflation pressure of a tire 
drops, the tire pressure warning 
light will come on.
■When initializat
ion of the tire 
pressure warning system has 
failed
Initialization may  take longer to 
complete if the vehi cle is driven on 
an unpaved road. When performing 
initialization, drive  on a paved road if 
possible. Depending on the driving 
environment and condition of the 
tires, initialization will be completed 
in approximately 10 to 30 minutes. If 
initialization is not complete after 
driving approximately 10 to 30 min-
utes, continue driving for a while.
If the inflation pressure of each tire 
is not displayed after driving for 
approximately 1 ho ur, perform the 
following procedure.
●Park the vehicle in a safe place for 
approximately 20 minutes. Then 
drive straight (with occasional left 
and right turns) at approximately 
25 mph (40 km/h) or more for 
approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
However, in the following situations, 
the tire inflation pr essure will not be 
recorded and the system will not 
operate properly. Perform initializa-
tion again.
●If the vehicle is reversed during 
initialization, the data up to that 
point is reset, so p erform the ini-
tialization procedure again from 
the beginning.
●When operating the tire pressure 
warning reset switch, the tire pres-
sure warning light does not blink 3 
times.
●After performing initialization, the 
tire pressure warn ing light blinks 
for 1 minute then stays on while

Maintenance and care
tering the ID codes, the initialized 
values will be invalid.
●ID codes can be registered by 
yourself, but depending on the 
driving conditions and driving 
environment, registration may 
take some time to complete.
■Canceling ID code registration
●To cancel ID code registration 
after it has been  started, turn the 
power switch off before driving the 
vehicle. If the vehicle is driven 
after ID code registration is 
started, to cancel registration, per-
form the ID code registration start 
procedure again and turn the 
power switch off before driving.
●If ID code registration has been 
canceled, the tire pressure warn-
ing light will blink for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the power 
switch is turned to ON and then 
illuminate. The tire pressure warn-
ing system will be operational 
when the tire pressure warning 
light turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn 
off even after se veral minutes 
have elapsed, ID code registration 
may not have bee n canceled cor-
rectly. To cancel registration, per-
form the ID code registration start 
procedure again and then turn the 
power switch off before driving.
■If ID codes are not registered 
properly
In the following situations, ID code 
registration may take longer than 
usual to be completed or may not be 
possible. Normally, registration com-
pletes within appro ximately 30 min-
utes.
●Vehicle is not parked for approxi-
mately 20 minutes or more before 
driving
●Vehicle is not driven at approxi-
mately 25 mph ( 40 km/h) or more
●Vehicle is driven on unpaved 
roads
●Vehicle is driven near other vehi-
cles and system cannot recog-
nize tire pressure warning valve 
and transmitters o f your vehicle 
over those of other vehicles
Wheel with tire pressure warning 
valve and transmit ter installed is 
inside or near the vehicle
If registration does not complete 
after driving for 1 hour or more, per-
form the ID code registration proce-
dure again from the beginning.
●If the vehicle is reversed during 
registration, the data up to that 
point is reset, so p erform the reg-
istration procedure again from the 
beginning.
●In the following situations, ID code 
registration will not be started or 
was not completed properly and 
the system will not operate prop-
erly. Perform the ID code registra-
tion procedure again.
• If, when attempt ing to start ID 
code registration, the tire pressure 
warning light does not blink slowly 
3 times.
• If, when the veh icle has been 
driven for about 20 minutes after 
performing ID code registration, 
the tire pressure warning light 
blinks for approximately 1 minute 
and then illuminates.
If the ID codes cannot be registered 
even when performing the above 
procedure, contact your Toyota 
dealer.
