■If the tread on snow tires wears
down below 0.16 in. (4 mm)
The effectiveness of the tires as
snow tires is lost.
Rotate the tires in the order
shown.
To equalize tire wear and extend
tire life, Toyota recommends that
tire rotation is carried out at the
same interval as tire inspection.
Do not fail to initialize the tire pres-
sure warning system after tire rota-
tion. (if equipped)

WARNING
■When inspecting or replacing
tires
Observe the following precautions
to prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause dam-
age to parts of t he drive train as
well as dangerous handling char-
acteristics, which may lead to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.
●Do not mix tires of different
makes, models or tread pat-
terns.
Also, do not mix tires of remark-
ably different treadwear.
●Do not use tire sizes other than
those recommende d by Toyota.
●Do not mix differently con-
structed tires (radial, bias-belted
or bias-ply tires).
●Do not mix summer, all season
and snow tires.
●Do not use tires that have been
used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not
know how they were used previ-
ously.
●Do not tow if your vehicle has a
compact spare tire installed.
NOTICE
■Driving on rough roads
Take particular care when driving
on roads with loose surfaces or
potholes.
These conditions may cause
losses in tire inflation pressure,
reducing the cushioning ability of
the tires. In addition, driving on
rough roads may cause damage
to the tires themselves, as well as
the vehicle’s wheels and body.
■If tire inflation pressure of
each tire becomes low while
driving
Do not continue driving, or your
tires and/or wheels may be
ruined.

Maintenance and care
■When rotating the tires (vehi-
cles with tire pressure warning
system)
Make sure that the power switch is
OFF. If the tires are rotated while
the power switch is in ON, the tire
position informa tion will not be
updated. If this accidentally occurs,
either turn the power switch to OFF
and then to ON, or initialize the sys-
tem after checking that the tire pres-
sure is properly adjusted.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
tire pressure warning system
that uses tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters to detect
low tire inflation pressure before
serious problems arise.
 If the tire pressure drops
below a predetermined level,
the driver is warned by a
screen display and a warning
light. ( P.630)
 The tire pressure detected by
the tire pressure warning sys-
tem can be displayed on the
multi-information display.
( P.101)
The illustration used is intended
as an example, and may differ
from the image that is actually
displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display.
■Routine tire inflation pressure
checks
The tire pressure warning system
does not replace routine tire inflation
pressure checks . Make sure to
check tire inflation pressure as part
of your routine o f daily vehicle
checks.
■Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to dis-
play the tire inflation pressure
after the power switch is turned to
ON. It may also take a few min-
utes to display the tire inflation
pressure after infl ation pressure
has been adjusted.
●Tire inflation pressure changes
with temperature.
The displayed values may also be
different from the values mea-
sured using a tire pressure gauge.
■Situations in which the tire
pressure warning system may
not operate properly
●In the following cases, the tire
pressure warning system may not
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used.
• A tire has been replaced with a tire that is not an OE (Original
Equipment) tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a tire that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. are equipped.
• An auxiliary-support ed run-flat tire
is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed.

5827-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
• 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 extremely higher than the speci-
fied level.
• If wheels without tire pressure warning valves a nd transmitters
are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is
not registered in the tire pressure
warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in
the following situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station,
large display, airpo rt or other facil-
ity 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 cor-
rectly displayed due to the radio
wave conditions, the display may be
corrected by driving and changing
the radio wave conditions.
●When the vehicle is parked, the
time taken for the warning to start
or go off could be extended.
●When tire inflation pressure
declines rapidly for example when
a tire has burst, the warning may
not function.
■Warning performance of the tire
pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure
warning system will change in
accordance with th e conditions
under which it was initialized. For
this reason, the system may give a
warning even if the tire pressure
does not reach a low enough level,
or if the pressure is higher than the
pressure that was adjusted to when
the system was initialized.
When replacing tires or wheels,
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters must also be
installed.
When new tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters are
installed, new ID codes must be
registered in the tire pressure
warning computer and the tire
pressure warning system must
be initialized. ( P.585)
■When replacing the tires and
wheels
If the ID code of the tire pressure
warning valve and tr ansmitter is not
registered, the tire pressure warning
system will not work properly. After
driving for about 20 minutes, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for 1
minute and stays on to indicate a
system malfunction.

ing valves, transmitters and
tire valve caps
●When removing or fitting the
wheels, tires or the tire pressure
warning valves and transmit-
ters, contact your Toyota dealer
as the tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters may be
damaged if not handled cor-
rectly.

each tire on the multi-information
display while the tire pressure
warning system determines the
position.
8Drive straight (with occa-
sional left and right turns) at
approximately 25mph (40
km/h) or more for approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes.
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, initializat ion can be com-
pleted by driving for a long time.
However, if initia lization does not
complete after driving for 1 hour or
more, park the vehicle in a safe
place for approximately 20 minutes
and then drive th e vehicle again.
■When initializing
●Initialization is performed while
driving at a vehicle speed of
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more.
●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 tir e inflation pres-
sure adjustment.
●The tire pressure warning system
can be initialized by yourself, but
depending on the driving condi-
tions and driving environment, ini-
tialization may take some time to
complete.
■The initialization operation
●If you have accidentally turned the
power switch to OFF during initial-
ization, it is not necessary to
restart the initia lization again as
initialization will restart automati-
cally when the power switch has
been turned to ON for the next time.
●If you accidentally perform initial-
ization when initia
lization is not
necessary, adjust the tire inflation
pressure to the s pecified 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.
■If the tire pressure warning sys-
tem is not initia lized properly
●In the following situations, initial-
ization may take longer than usual
to be completed or may not be
possible. Normally, initialization
completes within approximately
30 minutes.
• 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.
• If the vehicle is driven in heavy traffic or another situation where
other vehicles are driven close by,
it may take time f or the system to
recognize the ti re pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitters of your
vehicle over those of other vehi-
cles.
If initialization 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.
●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.
●In the following situations, initial-

ization will not be started or was
not completed properly and the
system will not operate properly.
Perform the initialization proce-
dure again.
• If, when attempting to start initial-
ization, the tire pressure warning
light does not blink 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been
driven for about 20 minutes after
performing initialization, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for
approximately 1 minute and then
illuminates.
If the inflation pressure of each tire
is still not displayed, have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
Every tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter has a
unique ID code. When replacing
a tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter, it is necessary
to register the ID code.
When registering the ID codes,
perform the following procedure.
1 Park the vehicle in a safe
place, wait for approximately 20 minutes, and then start
the hybrid system.
2 Press or of the meter
control switches on the steer-
ing wheel and select .
3 Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“Vehicle Settings”, and then
press and hold .
4 Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“TPWS”, and then press .
5 Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“Change Wheel”. Then press
and hold until the tire
pressure warning light starts
slowly blinking 3 times.
The change wheel set mode is acti-
vated and registra tion is started.
Then a message will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
When registration is being per-
formed, the tire pressure warning
light will blink for approximately 1
minute then illuminate and “--” will
be displayed for the inflation pres-
sure of each tire on the multi-infor-
mation display.
WARNING
■When initializing the tire pres-
sure warning system
Do not initialize tire inflation pres-
sure without first adjusting the tire
inflation pressure to the specified
level. Otherwise, the tire pressure
warning light may not come on
even if the tire inflation pressure is
low, or it may c ome on when the
tire inflation pressure is actually
normal.

warning system. ( P.583)
■When registering ID codes
●ID code registration is performed
while driving at a vehicle speed of
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more.
●Before performin g ID code regis-
tration, make sure that no wheels
with tire pressur e warning valve
and transmitters installed are near
the vehicle.
●Make sure to initialize the tire
pressure warning system after
registering the ID codes. If the
system is initializ ed before regis-
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.
●As the tires will be warm when
registration is completed, make
sure to allow the tires to cool
before performing initialization.
■Canceling ID code registration

after it has been started, turn the
power switch to OFF before driv-
ing 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 to OFF before driv-
ing.
●If ID code registration has been
canceled, the tire pressure warn-
ing light will blin k 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 lig ht does not turn
off even after several minutes
have elapsed, ID code registration
may not have been canceled cor-
rectly. To cancel registration, per-
form the ID code registration start
procedure again and then turn the
power switch to OFF before driv-
ing.
