Owners Manual_USA_M0C043_en
If you notice any of the following symptoms, refer to the following
table for the likely cause and the solution.
If the symptom is not resolved by the solution, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
• When cleaning the camera lens, wipe the camera lens with a
damp soft cloth. When it is diffi-
cult to clean it with a cloth, use a
swab. Do not strongly rub the
camera lens, as it may be
scratched and will not be able to
transmit a clear image.
• When applying colored film (including transparent film) to
the rear window glass, do not
apply it to the area in front of the
camera. If film is applied to the
area in front of the camera, the
image from the camera may not
display properly.
●Do not subject t he camera to a
strong impact as this could
cause a malfunction.
If this happens, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
●Do not block the vent holes of
the mirror. Otherwise, the mirror
may be hot, leading to a mal-
function or a fire.

WARNING
●Emergency steering assist may
not operate or may be cancel in
the following cases as the sys-
tem may determine the driver is
taking actions.
• If the accelerato r pedal is being
depressed strongly, the steering
wheel is being operated sharply,
the brake pedal is being
depressed or the turn signal
lever is being ope rated. In this
case, the system may deter-
mine that the driver is taking
evasive action and the emer-
gency steering assist may not
operate.
• The emergency steering assist will be disabled automatically
when the system judges that a
trailer is connected.
• In some situations, while the emergency steering assist is
operating, operation of the func-
tion may be canceled if the
accelerator peda l is depressed
strongly, the st eering wheel is
operated sharply or the brake
pedal is being depressed and
the system determines that the
driver is taking evasive action.
• When the emergency steering assist is operating, if the steer-
ing wheel is held firmly or is
operated in the opposite direc-
tion to that which the system is
generating torque, the function
may be canceled.
■When to disable the pre-colli-
sion system
In the following situations, disable
the system, as it may not operate
properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury:
●When the vehicle is being towed
●When your vehicles is towing a
trailer or another vehicle, except
when the followin g conditions
are all met
• When the other vehicle is a trailer properly attached and
connected to Toyota’s official
TBC ECU. ( P.198)
• When the vehicle is not being driven on a slippery surface
such as an icy road or a very
wet road.
●When transporting the vehicle
via truck, boat, train or similar
means of transportation
●When the vehicle is raised on a
lift with the hybrid system on
and the tires are allowed to
rotate freely
●When inspecting the vehicle
using a drum tester such as a
chassis dynamometer or speed-
ometer tester, or when using an
on vehicle wheel balancer
●When a strong impact is applied
to the front bumper or front
grille, due to an accident or
other reasons
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in
a stable manner, such as when
the vehicle has been in an acci-
dent or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a
sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly
inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When tires of a size other than
specified are installed
●When tire chains are installed
●When a compact spare tire or
an emergency tire puncture
repair kit is used

When trouble arises
If none of the tires are punctured:
Turn the power switch off then turn it
to ON. Check if the tire pressure
warning light comes on or blinks.
If the tire pressure warning light
blinks for approximately 1 minute
then stays on
There may be a malfunction in the
tire pressure warning system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer immediately.
If the tire pressure warning light
comes on
1 After the temperature of the tires
has lowered sufficiently, check
the inflation pressure of each tire
and adjust them to the specified
level.
2 If the warning light does not turn
off even after several minutes
have elapsed, check that the
inflation pressure of each tire is
at the specified level and perform
initialization. ( P.479)
■The tire pressure warning light
may come on due to natural
causes
The tire pressure warning light may
come on due to natural causes such
as natural air leaks and tire inflation
pressure changes caused by tem-
perature. In this case, adjusting the
tire inflation pressure will turn off the
warning light (after a few minutes).
■When a tire is replaced with a
spare tire
The temporary spare tire is not
equipped with the tire pressure
warning valve and transmitter. If a
tire goes flat, the tire pressure warn-
ing light will not turn off even though
the flat tire is replaced with the tem-
porary spare tire.
Replace the temporary spare tire
with the repaired tire and adjust the
proper tire inflation pressure. The
tire pressure warning light will turn
off after several minutes.
■Conditions that the tire pres-
sure warning system may not
function properly
P.477
WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake
system warning lights remain
on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place
immediately and contact your Toy-
ota dealer.
The vehicle will become
extremely unstable during brak-
ing, and the ABS system may fail,
which could cause an accident
resulting in death o r serious injury.
■When the electric power
steering 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 assis t to the power
steering is lost and handling oper-
ations 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 fo rce than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning
light comes on
Be sure to observe the following
precautions.
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.

Owners Manual_USA_M0C043_en
WARNING
●If the tire pressure warning light
comes on even after tire infla-
tion 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 Toy ota dealer.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and
braking.
If the vehicle tires deteriorate,
you could lose control of the
steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air
leakage should occur
The tire pressure warning system
may not activate immediately.
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, including the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label (tire and
load information label). (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load infor-
mation label], you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS-tire pressure warning sys-
tem) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light) w hen one or more
of your tires is s ignificantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the
low tire pressure te lltale (tire pres-
sure warning light) illuminates,
you should stop and check your
tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pres-
sure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire
to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS (tire
pressure warning system) is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to m aintain correct
tire pressure, even if under-infla-
tion has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure te lltale (tire pres-
sure warning light).
Your vehicle has also been
equipped with a TPMS (tire pres-
sure warning system) malfunc-
tion indicator to indicate when the
system is not operating properly.
The TPMS (tire pressure warning
system) malfunction indicator is
combined with the low tire pres-
sure telltale (tire pressure warning
light). When the system detects a
malfunction, the te lltale will flash
for approximately one minute and
then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will con-
tinue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunc-
tion exists. When the malfunction
indicator is illuminated, the sys-
tem may not be ab le to detect or
signal low tire pressure as
intended.

Remove all the wheel nuts
and the tire.
When resting the tire on the
ground, place the tire so that the
wheel design faces up to avoid
scratching the wheel surface.
WARNING
■Replacing a flat tire
●Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may result in seri-
ous injury:
• Lower the spare tire completely to the ground before removing it
from under the vehicle.
• Do not try to rem ove the wheel
ornament by hand. Take due
care in handling the ornament to
avoid unexpected personal
injury.
• Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes
immediately after the vehicle
has been driven.
After the vehicle has been driven
the disc wheels and the area
around the br akes will be
extremely hot. Touching these
areas with hands, feet or other
body parts while changing a tire,
etc., may result in burns.
●Failure to follow these precau-
tions could cause the wheel
nuts to loosen and the tire to fall
off, resulting in death or serious
injury.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened
with a torque wrench as soon as
possible after changing wheels.

• When installing a tire, only use wheel nuts that have been spe-
cifically designed for that wheel.
• Retighten the wheel nuts within 100 miles (160 km) of driving.
• If there are any cracks or defor- mations in the bolt screws, nut
threads or bolt holes of the
wheel, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
• Do not attach a heavily dam- aged wheel ornament, as it may
fly off the wheel while the vehi-
cle is moving.
• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install them with the
tapered ends facing inward.

contact surface, the wheel nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is in
motion, causing the tire to come off.
2Install the spare tire and
loosely tighten each wheel
nut by hand by approximately
the same amount.
Tighten the whee l nuts until the
tapered portion comes into
loose contact with the disc wheel
seat .
3 Lower the vehicle.

hung on surrounding parts.
If looseness or misassembly exists,
repeat step 2 and step 4.
6 Repeat step 5, any time the
tire is lowered or disturbed.
7 Stow the tools and jack
securely.
■The temporary spare tire
●The temporary spare tire is identi-
fied by the “TEMPORARY USE
ONLY” marking on the disc wheel
and/or tire sidewall.
Use the temporary spare tire tem-
porarily, and only in an emer-
gency.
●Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure of the temporary
spare tire. ( P.555)
■When using the temporary
