Maintenance and care
■When registering ID codes (vehicles with a tire inflation pressure dis-
play function)
●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.
■Canceling ID code registration ( vehicles with a tire inflation pressure
display function)
●To cancel ID code registration after it has been started, turn the engine
switch off before driving the vehicle.
If the vehicle is driven after ID code registration is started, to cancel reg-
istration, perform the ID code r egistration start procedure aga in and turn
the engine switch of f before driving.
●If ID code registration has been canceled, the tire pressure wa rning light
will blink for approximately 1 mi nute when the engine switch is turned to
the “ON” position (vehicles witho ut a smart key system) or IGNITION
ON mode (vehicles with a smart ke y system) and then illuminate. The
tire pressure warning system will be operational when the tire pressure
warning ligh t turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn off even after several minut es have
elapsed, ID code registration may not have been cancelled corre ctly. To
cancel registration, perform the ID code registration start procedure
again and then turn the engine switch off before driving.

If ID codes are not registered properly (vehicles with a tire inflation
pressure display function)
●In the following situations, ID code registration may take long
er than
usual to be completed or may not be possible. (Usually, the veh icle will
need to be driven for approximately 10 to 30 minutes to complet e ID
code registration.)
If ID code registration is not complete after driving for appro ximately 30
minutes, continue driving for a while.
• If the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road, it may take longe r than
normal to complete registration.
• If the vehicle is backed up while performing registration, dat a col-
lected during registration will be cleared, and it will take longer 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 a wheel with a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter installed
is inside or near the vehicle, registration of the ID codes for the
installed wheels may not be possible.
If ID registration is not complete after driving for approximately 1 hour,
park the vehicle in a safe place for approximately 20 minutes and then
perform the ID code regi stration procedure again.
●In the following situations, ID c ode registration will not be started or was
not completed properly and the system will not operate properly. Per-
form the ID code registr ation procedure again.
• If, when attempting to start ID code registration, the tire pr essure
warning light does not blink slowly 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven for about 20 minutes afte r per-
forming ID code registration, the tire pressure warning light b links for
approximately 1 minute and then illuminates.
●If ID code registration cannot be completed after performing th e above
procedure, contact your Toyota dealer.
