Maintenance and care
• If tires not equipped with tire pres-sure warning valves and transmit-
ters 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.
●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 pres-
sure does not reach a low enough
level, or if the p ressure 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. Have tire pressure
warning valves and transmitter
ID codes registered by your Toy-
ota dealer. (
P.293)
■Replacing 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.

■Repairing or replacing tires,
wheels, tire pressure warn-
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.
●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.
2886-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
It is necessary to register the
position of each wheel after per-
forming a tire rotation.
Wheel position registration can
be performed by oneself. Wheel
position registration is per-
formed by driving forward with
moderate left and right turns.
However, depending on the driv-
ing conditions and driving envi-
ronment, registration may take
some time to complete.

■To avoid damage to the tire
pressure warning valves and
transmitters
When a tire is repaired with liquid
sealants, the tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter may not
operate properly. If a liquid seal-
ant is used, contact your Toyota
dealer or other qualified service
shop as soon as possible. Make
sure to replace the tire pressure

position registration may take lon-
ger than usual to b e completed or
may not be possible.
• Vehicle is not driven at approxi- mately 25 mph ( 40 km/h) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved
roads
• If wheel position registration does not complete afte r driving for 1
hour or more, park the vehicle in a
safe place for approximately 15
minutes and then drive the vehicle
again.
●If the vehicle is reversed during
wheel position registration, all
data collected until then will be
cleared. Perform driving again.
In the following situations, it will
be necessary to perform the tire
inflation pressure setting proce-
dure of the tire pressure warning
system.
When the specified tire infla-
tion pressure has changed,
such as due to carried load,
etc.
When the tire inflation pres-
sure is changed such as
when the tire size is changed.
If the tire inflation pressure has
been adjusted to the specified
level, perform the t ire inflation set-
ting procedure by selecting speci-
fied inflation pressure on the
multi-information display.
When the tire inflation pressure is
to be other than specified, such as
when tires other th an the specified
size are used, etc., set the tire infla-
tion pressure using the current
pressure. Make sure to adjust the tire inflation pressure of each tire to
the appropriate level before per-
forming tire press
ure setting. The
tire pressure warning system oper-
ates based on this tire inflation
pressure.

■Warning performance of the tire
pressure warning system
●When performing the tire pressure
setting using the current tire infla-
tion pressure, the warning timing
of the tire pressu re warning sys-
tem will vary accor ding to the con-
ditions under which tire pressure
setting was performed. Therefore,
a warning may be output even if
the tire inflation pressure drops
slightly or if the tire inflation pres-
sure increases above that when
the tire inflation pressure was set.
●Make sure to perform the tire
pressure setting procedure after
adjusting the tire inflation pres-
sure. Also, make sure the tires are
cold before performing the tire
pressure setting procedure or
adjusting the tire inflation pres-
sure.
■Tire inflation pressure setting
procedure
●If the engine switch is turned off
while setting the tir e inflation pres-
sure, the next time the engine
switch is turned to ON, the setting
procedure will resume and it will
not be necessary to restart the
procedure.
●If the tire inflation pressure setting
procedure is started unnecessar-
ily, adjust the tire inflation pres-
sure to the specified level with the
tires cold and then perform setting
by selecting a specified tire infla-
tion pressure, or perform the tire
inflation pressure setting proce-
dure with the curren t tire inflation
pressure.
■If the tire inflation pressure can-
not be set easily
●Normally, the tire inflation pres-
sure setting pro cedure can be
completed in 2 or 3 minutes.
●If the tire pressur e warning light
does not blink 3 times when start-
ing the tire inflation pressure set-
ting procedure, t he procedure
may not have started. Perform the
procedure again from the begin-
ning.
●If tire inflation pressure setting
procedure cannot be completed
after performing the above proce-
dure, contact your Toyota dealer.
The tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter is equipped with
a unique ID code. When new
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters are installed, new
ID codes must be registered in
the tire pressure warning com-
puter.
ID codes can be registered by

yourself, but depending on
the driving conditions and
driving environment, registra-
tion may take some time to
complete.
When using a wheel set
which all of the ID codes have
already been registered, the
wheel set can be changed in
a short amount of time.
Before performing ID code reg-
istration, make sure that no
wheels with tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitters
installed are near the vehicle.
