ing for 1 hour or more, park the vehicle
in a safe place for approximately 20
minutes and then drive the vehicle
again.
■When initializing
●Initialization is performed while driving
at a vehicle speed of approximately
40 km/h (25 mph) or more.
●Make sure to carry out initialization
after adjusting the tire inflation pres-
sure. Also, make sure the tires are
cold before carrying out initialization
or tire inflation pressure adjustment.
●The tire pressure warning system can
be initialized by yourself, but depend-
ing on the driving conditions and driv-
ing environment, initialization may
take some time to complete.
■The initialization operation
●If you have accidentally turned the
power switch to OFF during initializa-
tion, it is not necessary to restart the
initialization again as initialization will
restart automatically when the power
switch has been turned to ON for the
next time.
●If you accidentally perform initializa-
tion when initialization is not neces-
sary, adjust the tire inflation pressure
to the specified level when the tires
are cold, and conduct initialization
again.
●While the position of each tire is being
determined and the inflation pres-
sures are not being displayed on the
multi-information display, if the infla-
tion pressure of a tire drops, the tire
pressure warning light will come on.
■If the tire pressure warning system
is not initialized properly
●In the following situations, initialization
may take longer than usual to be com-
pleted or may not be possible. Nor-
mally, initialization completes within
approximately 30 minutes.
• Vehicle is not driven at approximately
40 km/h (25 mph) or more• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehicles
and system cannot recognize tire
pressure warning valve and transmit-
ters of your vehicle over those of other
vehicles.
• If the vehicle is driven in heavy traffic
or another situation where other vehi-
cles are driven close by, it may take
time for the system to recognize the
tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitters of your vehicle over those of
other vehicles.
●If initialization does not complete after
driving for 1 hour or more, park the
vehicle in a safe place for approxi-
mately 20 minutes and then drive the
vehicle again.
●If the vehicle is reversed during initial-
ization, the data up to that point is
reset, so perform the initialization pro-
cedure again from the beginning.
●In the following situations, initialization
will not be started or was not com-
pleted properly and the system will not
operate properly. Perform the initial-
ization procedure again.
• If, when attempting to start initializa-
tion, 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 initialization cannot be completed after
performing the above procedure, con-
tact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.

Maintenance and care
tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitters installed are near the vehicle.
●Make sure to initialize the tire pres-
sure warning system after registering
the ID codes. If the system is initial-
ized before registering the ID codes,
the initialized values will be invalid.
●ID codes can be registered by your-
self, but depending on the driving con-
ditions and driving environment,
registration may take some time to
complete.
●As the tires will be warm when regis-
tration is completed, make sure to
allow the tires to cool before perform-
ing initialization.
■Canceling ID code registration
●To cancel ID code registration after it
has been started, select “Identifying
Each Wheel & Position” on the multi-
information display and press and
hold again.
●If ID code registration has been can-
celed, the tire pressure warning light
will blink for approximately 1 minute
when the power switch is turned to
ON and then illuminate. The tire pres-
sure warning system will be opera-
tional when the tire pressure warning
light turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn off
even after several minutes have
elapsed, ID code registration may not
have been canceled correctly. To can-
cel registration, perform the ID code
registration start procedure again and
then turn the power switch off before
driving.
■If ID codes are not registered prop-
erly
●In the following situations, ID code
registration may take longer than
usual to be completed or may not be
possible. Normally, registration com-
pletes within approximately 30 min-
utes.
If ID code registration is not complete after driving for approximately 30 min-
utes, continue driving for a while.
• Vehicle is not parked for approxi-
mately 20 minutes or more before
driving
• Vehicle is not driven at approximately
40 km/h (25 mph) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehicles
and system cannot recognize tire
pressure warning valve and transmit-
ters of your vehicle over those of other
vehicles
• Wheel with tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter installed is
inside or near the vehicle
If registration does not complete after
driving for 1 hour or more, perform the
ID code registration procedure again
from the beginning.
●If the vehicle is reversed during regis-
tration, the data up to that point is
reset, so perform the registration pro-
cedure again from the beginning.
●In the following situations, ID code
registration will not be started or was
not completed properly and the sys-
tem will not operate properly. Perform
the ID code registration procedure
again.
• If, when attempting to start ID code
registration, the tire pressure warning
light does not blink slowly 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven
for about 10 minutes after performing
ID code registration, the tire pressure
warning light blinks for approximately
1 minute and then illuminates.
●If ID code registration cannot be com-
pleted after performing the above pro-
cedure, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
