2022 TOYOTA AVALON HYBRID change time

4446-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
■Situations in which the tire pressure warning system may not oper-
ate properly
●In the following situations, the tire pressure warning system m ay not
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used.
• If a tire has been replaced with a tire that is not an OE (Ori ginal
Equipment) tire.
• If a tire has been replaced with a tire that is not of the spe cified size.
• If tire chains, e tc. are installed.
• If a window tint that affects r adio 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 much higher than the specifi ed level.
• If wheels not equipped with tire pressure warning valve and tr ansmit-
ter are used.
• If the ID codes of the tire pre ssure warning valve and transmi tters are
not registered in the tire pressure warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in the following situations.
• When driving near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas statio n, radio
station, large display, airport or other facilit y that generates strong
radio waves or electrical noise
• When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or
other wireless communication device
If tire position information is not correctly displayed due to the radio
wave conditions, the display ma y be corrected by changing the l ocation
of the vehicle as the radio wa ve conditions may change.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the time taken for the warning to start or
turn off may be longer.
●When the inflation pressure of a tire drops rapidly, for exampl e when a
tire has burst, the warning may not operate.
■Initialization procedure
●Make sure to perform the initialization procedure after adjusti ng the tire
inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before performing the initia lization
procedure or adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
●If the power switch is turned off during initialization, it is not necessary to
restart the initialization procedure from the beginning as it w ill begin
automatically when the power swit ch is turned back to ON mode.
●If initialization has accidentally been started when it is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressu re to the specified level when the tires are
cold and then perform the ini tialization procedure again.
●While the position of each tire is being determined and the inf lation pres-
sures are not being displayed on the multi-information display, if the
inflation pressure of a tire drops, the tire pressure warning l ight will come
on.

Maintenance and care
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure warning system will change in accor-
dance with the conditions under which it was initialized. For t his reason,
the system may give a warning even if the tire pressure does no t reach a
low enough level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressur e that was
adjusted to when the sys tem was initialized.
■If the tire pressure warning syst em is not initialized properly
●In the following situations, init ialization may take longer than usual to be
completed or may not be possible. (Usually, the vehicle will ne ed to be
driven for approximately 10 to 30 minutes to complete initializ ation.)
If initialization is not complete after driving approximately 3 0 minutes,
continue driving for a while.
• If the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road, it may take longe r to com-
plete initialization.
• If the vehicle is backed up while performing initialization, d ata col-
lected during initialization will be cleared and it will take l onger than
normal to complete.
• If the vehicle is driven in heavy traffic or another situation where other
vehicles are driven close by, i t may take time for the system to recog-
nize the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters of your v ehicle
over those of other vehicles.
If initialization is not complete after driving for approximate ly 1 hour,
park the vehicle in a safe place for approximately 20 minutes and then
drive the vehicle again.
●In the following situ ations, initialization will not be started or was not
completed properly and the system will not operate properly. Pe rform
the initialization procedure again.
• If, when attempting to start initialization, the tire pressure warning light
does not blink 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven for about 20 minutes afte r per-
forming initializatio n, the tire pressure warning light blinks for approxi-
mately 1 minute and then illuminates.
●If initialization cannot be completed after performing the abov e proce-
dure, contact your Toyota dealer.
■When registering ID codes
●Before performing ID code registration, make sure that no wheel s with
tire pressure warning valve and transmitters installed are near the vehi-
cle.
●Make sure to initialize the tire pressure warning system after registering
the ID codes. If the system is initialized before registering t he ID codes,
the initialized values will be invalid.
●As the tires will be war m when registration is completed, make sure to
allow the tires to cool befo re performing initialization.

When trouble arises
■Stopping the hybrid system
Shift the shift lever to P and press the power switch as you normally do when
stopping the hybrid system.
■ Replacing the key battery
As the above procedure is a temporary measure, it is recommended that the
electronic key battery be replaced immediately when the battery is depleted.
(P. 461)
■ Changing power switch modes
Release the brake pedal and press the power switch in step above.
The hybrid system does not start and modes will be changed each time the
switch is pressed. ( P. 201)
■ When the electronic key does not work properly
●Make sure that the smart key system has not been deactivated in the cus-
tomization setting. If it is off, turn the function on.
(Customizable features: P. 548)
● Check if battery-saving mode is set. If it is set, cancel the f unction.
( P. 154)
WARNING
■ When using the mechanical key and operating the power windows or
moon roof
Operate the power window or moon roof after checking to make su re that
there is no possibility of any passenger having any of their body parts
caught in the window or moon roof. Also, do not allow children to operate
the mechanical key. It is possible for children and other passe ngers to get
caught in the power window or moon roof.
