■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 of daily  vehicle checks.
■Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to display the tire inflation pressure after the engine switch is turned to ON. It may  
also take a few minutes to display the  tire inflation pressure after inflation pressure has been adjusted.
●Tire inflation pressure changes with temperature. The displayed values  
may also be different from the values  measured using a tire pressure gauge.
■Situations in which the tire pres- 
sure warning system may not oper- ate properly
●In the following cases, the tire pres-sure 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-supported run-flat tire is  equipped.• If a window tint that affects the radio  
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 extremely higher than the specified  
level. • If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and 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 dis-play, airport or other facility that gen- 
erates strong radio waves or electrical  noise.• When carrying a portable radio, cellu- 
lar phone, cordless phone or other  wireless communication device.
●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 not to able detect.
■Warning performance of the tire  pressure warning system 
The warning of the tire pressure warning  
system will change in accordance with  driving conditions. 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 trans- 
mitters must also be installed. 
When new tire pressure warning  
valves and transmitters are  
installed, new ID codes must be  
registered in the tire pressure warn- 
ing computer and the tire pressure  
warning system must be initialized.  
Have tire pressure warning valves  
and transmitter ID codes regis- 
tered any authorized Toyota retailer  
or Toyota authorized repairer, or

When using a flat-bed truck to  
transport the vehicle, use tire strap- 
ping belts. Refer to the owner’s  
manual of the flat-bed truck for the  
tire strapping method. 
In order to suppress vehicle move-

WARNING
■When towing the vehicle 
Be sure to transport the vehicle with  
the front wheels raised or with all four  wheels raised off the ground. If the vehicle is towed with the front wheels  
contacting the ground, the drivetrain  and related parts may be damaged.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the vehicle  
when towing using a wheel-lift  type truck
●Do not tow the vehicle from the rear  
when the engine switch is off. The  steering lock mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front  
wheels straight.
●When raising the vehicle, ensure  adequate ground clearance for tow-ing at the opposite end of the raised  
vehicle. Without adequate clear- ance, the vehicle could be dam-aged while being towed.
■When towing a vehicle equipped with the Stop & Start system (if  
equipped) 
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle  with all four wheels on the ground,  
perform the following procedure  before towing the vehicle in order to protect the system. Turn the engine  
switch off and then start the engine or  turn the engine switch to ON.
■Towing with a sling-type truck 
Do not tow with a sling-type truck to  prevent body damage.
