3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing
of the warning may be faster o r slower in the following cases:
●The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the specifica-
tion.
●The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tire is different from the others,
or the level of tire wear is excessively differe nt between them.
●A run-flat tire, studless tire, s now tire, or tire chains are used.
●An emergency tire is used (The t ire pressure monitoring system warning
light may flash and then continue illuminating).
●A tire is repaired using the e mergency flat tire repair kit.
●The tire pressure is excessively higher than the specified pres sure, or
the tire pressure is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tire
burst during driving.
●The vehicle speed is lower than about 9.3 mph (15 km/h) (includ ing
when the vehicle is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 min-
utes.
●The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road.
●Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as
during aggressive driving on a winding road.
●Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading hea vy luggage
to one side o f the vehicle.
●System initialization has not bee n implemented with the specified tire
pressure.

When Driving
NOTICE
●Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehi cle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire i nflation pressure label, you sh ould deter-
mine the proper tire inflati on pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS ) that illuminates a low tire pres-
sure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly u nder-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and i nflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-i nflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-infla-
tion also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling an d stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire m ainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s r esponsibility to maintain correc t tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trig ger
illumination of the TPMS lo w tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction ind ica-
tor to indicate when the syste m is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator i s combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute an d then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle star t-ups
as long as the malfunction exists . When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning pr operly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your veh icle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to functi on prop-
erly.
●To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a res ult it will not instantaneously register a
rapid tire deflation or blow out.

3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that
the system operates normally. • A tire pressure is adjusted.
• Tire rotation is performed.
• A tire or wheel is replaced.
• The battery is replaced or completely drained.
• The tire pressure m onitoring system warning light is illuminated.
■Initialization method
Park the car in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure of all four (4) tires
to the specified pressure indicated on the tire pressure label
located on the door jamb of t he driver’s door (door open).
Refer to Tires on P. 553.
Switch the ignition ON.
While the vehicle is parked,
press and hold the tire pres-
sure monitoring system set
switch and verify that the tire
pressure monitoring system
warning light in the combina-
tion meter flashes twice and
a beep sound is heard once.

NOTICE
If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tire pres-
sure, the system cannot detect th e normal tire pressure and it may not
illuminate the tire pre ssure monitoring system warning light ev en if a tire
pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pre ssures are
normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four tires and initialize the s ystem when
the warning light is turned on. If the warning light turns on f or a reason
other than a flat tire, the tire pressure of all four tires may have
decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be performed if the switch i s pressed
while the vehicle is being driven.

When Driving
Rear View Monitor
●If water, snow, or mud is stuck on the camera lens, wipe it off using a soft
cloth. If it cannot be wiped off, use a mild detergent.
● If the camera temperature changes rapidly (Hot to cold, cold to hot), the rear
view monitor may not operate correctly.
● When replacing the tires, consult your Toyota dealer. Replacing the tires
could result in deviation of the guide lines which appear on th e display.
● If the vehicle’s front, side, or rear has been involved in a collision, the align-
ment of the rear view parking camera (location, installation an gle) may have
deviated. Always consult your Toyota dealer to have the vehicle inspected.
● If “No Video Signal Available” is indicated in the display, the re could be a
problem with the camera. Have your vehicle inspected at your To yota
dealer.
The rear view monitor provides vi sual images of the rear of the
vehicle when reversing.
WARNING
■ Always drive carefully confirming the safety of the rear and the sur-
rounding conditions by looking directly with your eyes
Reversing the vehicle by only looking at the screen is dangerous as it may
cause an accident or a collision with an object. The rear view monitor is only
a visual assist device when reversing the vehicle. The images o n the screen
may be different from the actual conditions.
■ Do not use the rear view monitor under the following conditions
Using the rear view monitor under the following conditions is d angerous and
could result in injury or vehicle damage or both.
● Icy or snow-covered roads.
● Tire chains or a temporary spare tire is installed.
● The liftgate/trunk lid is not fully closed.
● The vehicle is on a road incline.
■ Rear view monitor display pr ecautions in cold temperatures
When the display is cold, images may course across the monitor or the
screen and may be dimmer than usual, which could cause difficulty in con-
firming the surrounding conditions of the vehicle. Always drive carefully con-
firming the safety of the rear and the surrounding conditions b y looking
directly with your eyes.

Maintenance and Care
Tires
Inspect all tire pressures monthly (including the spare) when the tires
are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, han -
dling, and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the spec ification charts
(P. 5 5 3).
With tire pressure m onitoring system:
After adjusting the tire pressur e, initialization of the tire p ressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to m ake the system operate normally .
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitorin g System Initialization on P. 244.
For reasons of proper performan ce, safety, and better fuel econ-
omy, always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and
stay within the recommended load limits and weight distribu-
tion.
WARNING
■Using Different Tire Types
Driving your vehicle with differ ent types of tires is dangerous . It could
cause poor handling and poor bra king; leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use onl y the same
type tires (radial, bi as-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels.
■Using Wrong-Sized Tires
Using any other tire size than wh at is specified for the vehicle (P. 5 5 3 )
is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance,
tire clearance, and speedometer calibration. This could cause y ou to
have an accident. Use only tires that are the correct size spec ified for
the vehicle.
Tire Inflation Pressure

4145-3. Owner Maintenance
YARIS_YARIS HATCHBACK_OM_OM99V59z_(U)
●Always check tire pressure when tires are cold.
●Warm tires normally exceed recommended pressures. Do not releas e
air from warm tires to adjust the pressure.
●Underinflation can cause reduced fuel economy, uneven and accel er-
ated tire wear, and poo r sealing of the tire bead, which will d eform the
wheel and cause separat ion of tire from rim.
●Overinflation can produce a harsh ride, uneven and accelerated tire
wear, and a greater p ossibility of damage from road hazards.
Keep your tire pressure at the correct levels. If one frequentl y needs
inflating, have it inspected.
During rotation, inspect them for
correct balance.
WARNING
■Always inflate the tires to the correct pressure
Overinflation or underinflation o f tires is dangerous. Adverse handling or
unexpected tire failure could result in a serious accident.
Refer to Tires on (P. 553).
■Use only a Toyota-genuine tire valve cap
Use of a non-genuine part is dangerous as the correct tire air pressure
cannot be maintained if the tire valve becomes damaged. If the vehicle
is driven under this condition, the tire air pressure will decr ease which
could result in a serious accident. Do not use any part for the tire valve
cap that is not a Toyota-genuine part.
