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 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 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
any reliable repairer. ( P.339)
■Replacing tires and wheels
If the ID code of the tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter is not regis- tered, the tire pressure warning system will not work properly. After driving for
about 10 minutes, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute and stays on to indicate a system malfunc-
tion.

NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing tires, wheels, tire pressure warning
valves, transmitters and tire valve caps
●When removing or fitting the
wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters, contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as the tire pressure warning valves
and transmitters may be damaged if not handled correctly.
●Make sure to install the tire valve caps. If the tire valve caps are not installed, water could enter the tire
pressure warning valves and the tire pressure warning valves could be bound.
●When replacing tire valve caps, do not use tire valve caps other than
those specified. The cap may become stuck.
■To avoid damage to the tire pres-sure warning valves and trans-mitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid sealants, the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter may not operate
properly. If a liquid sealant is used, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer as soon as possible. Make sure to replace the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter when
replacing the tire. ( P.336)

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that they
are equivalent to those removed in
load capacity, diameter, rim width
and inset*.
Replacement wheels are available
at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Toyota does not recommend using
the following:
Wheels of different sizes or types
Used wheels
Bent wheels that have been
straightened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must be
installed. ( P.336)
■When removing the wheel orna-
ment (vehicles with a wheel cap clip)
Remove the wheel ornament using the
wheel cap clip*.*: The wheel cap clip is installed in the
glove box. ( P.298)
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should be
replaced. Otherwise, the tire
may separate from the wheel
or cause a loss of handling
control.
Wheel selection
WARNING
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a differ- ent size from those recommended in the Owner’s Manual, as this may
result in a loss of handling control.
●Never use an inner tube in a leak-
ing wheel which is designed for a tubeless tire.Doing so may result in an accident,
causing death or serious injury.
■When installing the wheel nuts
●Be sure to install the wheel nuts with the tapered ends facing inward ( P.402). Installing the nuts with
the tapered ends facing outward can cause the wheel to break and eventually cause the wheel to come
off while driving, which could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■When a tire is replaced with a spare
tire
Vehicles with a compact spare tire: The compact spare tire is not equipped with
a tire pressure warning valve and trans- mitter. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will not turn off even
though the flat tire has been replaced with the spare tire. Replace the spare tire with the repaired tire and adjust the
tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure warning light will go off after a few min-utes.
Vehicles with a full-size spare tire: The spare tire is also equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter.
The tire pressure warning light will turn on if the tire inflation pressure of the spare tire is low. If a tire goes flat, the
tire pressure warning light will not turn off even though the flat tire has been replaced with the spare tire. Replace the
spare tire with the repaired tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure warning light will go off after a
few minutes.
■Conditions that the tire pressure warning system may not function properly
P. 3 3 6
WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any autho-rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the ABS
system may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or seri-ous injury.
■When the electric power steer-ing system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is restricted. When the light comes on
red, the assist to the power steering is lost and handling operations of the steering wheel become extremely
heavy. When steering wheel operations are heavier than usual, grip the steering
wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following pre-
cautions. Failure to do so could cause a loss of vehicle control and result in death or
serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as
soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
●Vehicles with a compact spare tire and full-size spare tire: If the tire pressure warning light comes on
even after tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a
tire is flat, change it with the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the nearest any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Vehicles with emergency tire punc-ture repair kit: If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after
tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If a tire is flat, repair
the flat tire by using emergency tire puncture repair kit.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking.If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.

■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occasion-
ally. The expiry date is shown on the bottle. Do not use sealant whose expiry date
has already passed. Otherwise, repairs conducted using the emergency tire puncture repair kit may not be per-
formed properly.
■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The emergency tire puncture repair kit
is for filling the car tire with air.
●The sealant has a limited life span.
The expiry date is marked on the bot- tle. The sealant should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used
only once to temporarily repair a sin- gle tire. If the sealant has been used and needs to be replaced, purchase a
new bottle at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The compres-
sor is reusable.
●The sealant can be used when the
outside temperature is from -30°C (- 22°F) to 60°C (140°F).
●The kit is exclusively designed for size and type of tires originally installed on your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that
a different size than the original ones, or for any other purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your clothes, it may stain.
●If the sealant adheres to a wheel or the surface of the vehicle body, the stain may not be removable if it is not
cleaned at once. Immediately wipe away the sealant with a wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a loud operation noise is produced. This does not indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use to check or to adjust the tire pressure.
WARNING
■Caution while driving
●Store the repair kit in the luggage compartment.
Injuries may result in the event of an accident or sudden braking.

5 Stow the flat tire, tire jack and all
tools.
■The full-size spare tire (if equipped)
●The full-size spare tire has a “Tempo- rary use only” label on the outer sur-face of the wheel. Use the full-size
spare tire temporarily, and only in an emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure of the full-size spare tire. ( P.427)
■The compact spare tire (if
equipped)
●The compact spare tire is identified by
the label “TEMPORARY USE ONLY” on the tire sidewall. Use the compact
spare tire temporarily, and only in an
emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure of the compact spare tire.

■When the compact spare tire (if equipped) is equipped
The vehicle becomes lower when driv-
ing with the compact spare tire com- pared to when driving with standard tires.
■When using the compact spare tire
(if equipped)
As the compact spare tire is not equipped with a tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter, low inflation pres- sure of the compact spare tire will not be indicated by the tire pressure warning
system. Also, if you replace the compact spare tire after the tire pressure warning light comes on, the light remains on.
■If you have a flat front tire on a road
covered with snow or ice (vehicles with a compact spare tire)
Install the compact spare tire on one of
the rear wheels of the vehicle. Perform the following steps and fit tire chains to the front tires:
1 Replace a rear tire with the compact
spare tire.
2 Replace the flat front tire with the tire removed from the rear of the vehicle.
3 Fit tire chains to the front tires.
