2023 TOYOTA PRIUS PRIME tire pressure

5828-2. Steps to take in an emergency
dealer.
When having the tire repaired or
replaced, make sure to tell your
Toyota dealer that the sealant is
injected.
■If the tire is inflated to more
than the specified air pressure
1 Disconnect the hose from the
valve.
2 Install the air release cap to the
end of the hose and push the
protrusion on the air release cap
into the tire valve to let some air
out.
3 Disconnect the hose from the
valve, remove the air release cap
from the hose and then recon-
nect the hose.
4 Turn the compressor switch on
and wait for several seconds,
and then turn it off. Check that
the air pressure indicator shows
the specified air pressure.
If the air pressure is under the des-
ignated pressure, turn the compres-
sor switch on again and repeat the
inflation procedure until the speci-
fied air pressure is reached.
■After a tire is repaired with the
emergency tire puncture repair
kit
●The tire pressure warning valve
and transmitter should be
replaced.
●Even if the tire inflation pressure is
at the recommended level, the tire
pressure warning light may come
on/flash.
WARNING
■When fixing the flat tire
●Stop your vehicle in a safe and
flat area.
●Do not touch the wheels or the
area around the brakes immedi-
ately after the vehicle has been
driven.
After the vehicle has been
driven, the wheels and the area
around the brakes may be
extremely hot. Touching these
areas with hands, feet or other
body parts may result in burns.
●Connect the valve and hose
securely with the tire installed
on the vehicle. If the hose is not
properly connected to the valve,
air leakage may occur as seal-
ant may be sprayed out.
●If the hose comes off the valve
while inflating the tire, there is a
risk that the hose will move
abruptly due to air pressure.
●After inflation of the tire has
completed, the sealant may
splatter when the hose is dis-
connected or some air is let out
of the tire.
●Follow the operation procedure
to repair the tire. If the proce-
dures not followed, the sealant
may spray out.
●Keep back from the tire while it
is being repaired, as there is a
chance of it bursting while the
repair operation is being per-
formed. If you notice any cracks
or deformation of the tire, turn
off the compressor switch and
stop the repair operation imme-
diately.

When trouble arises
WARNING
●The repair kit may overheat if
operated for a long period of
time. Do not operate the repair
kit continuously for more than
40 minutes.
●Parts of the repair kit become
hot during operation. Be careful
handling the repair kit during
and after operation. Do not
touch the metal part connecting
the bottle and the compressor. It
will be extremely hot.
●Do not attach the vehicle speed
warning sticker to an area other
than the one indicated. If the
sticker is attached to an area
where an SRS airbag is located,
such as the pad of the steering
wheel, it may prevent the SRS
airbag from operating properly.
■Driving to spread the liquid
sealant evenly
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Drive the vehicle carefully at a
low speed. Be especially careful
when turning and cornering.
●If the vehicle does not drive
straight or you feel a pull
through the steering wheel, stop
the vehicle and check the fol-
lowing.
• Tire condition. The tire may have separated from the wheel.
• Tire inflation pressure. If the tire inflation pressure is 19 psi (130
kPa, 1.3 kgf/cm
2 or bar) or less,
the tire may be severely dam-
aged.
NOTICE
■When performing an emer-
gency repair
●A tire should only be repaired
with the emergency tire punc-
ture repair kit if the damage is
caused by a sharp object such
as nail or screw passing through
the tire tread.
Do not remove the sharp object
from the tire. Removing the
object may widen the opening
and disenable emergency repair
with the repair kit.
●The repair kit is not waterproof.
Make sure that the repair kit is
not exposed to water, such as
when it is being used in the rain.
●Do not put the repair kit directly
onto dusty ground such as sand
at the side of the road. If the
repair kit vacuums up dust etc.,
a malfunction may occur.
●Make sure to stand the kit with
the bottle vertical. The kit can-
not work properly if it is laid on
its side.
■Precautions for the emer-
gency tire puncture repair kit
●The repair kit power source
should be 12 V DC suitable for
vehicle use. Do not connect the
repair kit to any other source.
●If fuel splatters on the repair kit,
the repair kit may deteriorate.
Take care not to allow fuel to
contact it.
●Place the repair kit in a storage
to prevent it from being exposed
to dirt or water.
●Store the repair kit in the lug-
gage compartment out of reach
of children.

5848-2. Steps to take in an emergency
One of the following may be the
cause of the problem:
The AC charging cable may
be attached to the vehicle.
( P.116)
 The electronic key may not be
functioning properly.
( P.587)
 There may not be sufficient
fuel in the vehicle’s tank.
Refuel the vehicle. ( P.279)
 There may be a malfunction
in the immobilizer system.
( P.70)
 There may be a malfunction
in the shift control system.
*
( P.253)
 The hybrid system may be
malfunctioning due to an elec-
trical problem such as elec-
tronic key battery depletion or
a blown fuse. However,
NOTICE
●Do not disassemble or modify
the repair kit. Do not subject
parts such as the air pressure
indicator to impacts. This may
cause a malfunction.
■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. After
use of liquid sealant, make sure to
replace the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter when repair-
ing or replacing the tire. ( P.518)
If the hybrid system
will not start
Reasons for the hybrid sys-
tem not starting vary
depending on the situation.
Check the following and
perform the appropriate
procedure:
The hybrid system will not
start even though the cor-
rect starting procedure is
being followed ( P.251)
