3726-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
on.
Depending on the vehicle and driving con-
ditions, initialization may take up to
approximately 1 hour to complete.
■Initializing the tire pressure warning sys-
tem
Initialize the system with the tire inflation
pressure adjusted to the specified level.
■If you press the tire pressure warning
reset switch accidentally
If initialization is performed, adjust the tire
inflation pressure to the specified level and
initialize the tire pr essure warning system
again.
■Initialization procedure
●Make sure to carry ou t initialization after
adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initializat ion 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 for the next
time.
●If you accidentally pr ess the reset switch
when initialization is not necessary, adjust
the tire inflation pres sure to the specified
level when the tires are cold, and conduct
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 initialization of the tire pressure
warning system has failed
Initialization may take lo nger to complete if
the vehicle 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 initializa-
tion is not complete after driving approxi- mately 10 to 30 minutes, continue driving
for a while.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is not
displayed after driving for approximately 1
hour, 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 pressure will not be recorded and
the system will not operate properly. Per-
form initialization again.
●When operating the tire pressure warn-
ing reset switch, the tire pressure warning
light does not blink 3 times.
●After performing init ialization, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute
then stays on while driving.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is still not
displayed, have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
The tire pressure warning valve and
transmitter is equipped with a unique
ID code. When replacing a tire pres-
sure warning valve and transmitter, it is
necessary to register the ID code.
Have the ID code registered by your
Lexus dealer.
WARNING
■When initializing the tire pressure
warning system
Do not initializing tire inflation pressure
without first adjusting the tire inflation
pressure to the spec ified level. Other-
wise, the tire pressu re warning light may
not come on even if the tire inflation pres-
sure is low, or it may come on when the
tire inflation pressure is actually normal.
