mation display. Also, “--” is displayed for
inflation pressure of each tire on the multi-
information display while the tire pressure
warning system determines the position.
8Drive the vehicle at approximately
25mph (40 km/h) or more for
approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
When initialization is complete, the infla-
tion pressure of each tire will be displayed
on the multi-information display.
Depending on the vehicle and driving con-
ditions, initialization may take up to
approximately 1 hour to complete.
■The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry ou t initialization after
adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before
carrying out initializat ion or tire inflation
pressure adjustment.
●If you have accidentally turned the engine
switch
ization, it is not necessary to manually
restart the initializatio n again, as initializa-
tion will restart automatically the next
time the engine switch
turned to IGNITION ON mode
●If you accidentally perform initialization
when initialization is not necessary, adjust
the tire inflation pres sure 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 pressures
are not being displayed on the multi-
information display, if the inflation pres-
sure of a tire drops, the tire pressure warning light will come on.
■When initialization of the tire pressure
warning system has failed
Initialization may take longer to complete if
the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road.
When performing initia lization, drive on a
paved road if possible. Depending on the
driving environment and condition of the
tires, initialization will be completed in
approximately 10 to 30 minutes. If initializa-
tion is not complete after driving approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes, continue driving
for a while. If the inflation of each tire is not
displayed after driving for approximately 1
hour, perform the following procedure.
●Park the vehicle in a safe place for
approximately 20 minutes. Then drive
straight (with occasional left and right
turns) at approximately 25 mph (40
km/h) or more for approximately 10 to
30 minutes.
However, in the following situations, the tire
inflation pressure will not be recorded and
the system will not operate properly. Per-
form initialization again.
●When performing init ialization, the tire
pressure warning light does not blink 3
times. (Initialization will not occur while
driving)
●After performing init ialization, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for 1 minute
then stays on after driving for about 20
minutes.
If the inflation pressure of each tire is still not
displayed, have the vehicle inspected by
your Lexus dealer.
■When registering ID codes
●Initialize the tire pressure warning system
after ID code registra tion. Initialization is
disabled if the system was initialized
before registration.
●After ID code registration, the tires are
hot by driving. Initia lize the tire pressure
warning system after the tires become
cold.
