“VSC” warning light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the vehicle stability control
system.
The light will come on when the “IG −ON”
mode is enabled and will go off after the
“READY” light comes on.
If the light comes on while driving, the
system does not work. However, because
the conventional braking still operates, you
can drive your vehicle without damaging
it. Contact your Toyota dealer. In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The warning light does not come on
after the “IG
−ON” mode is enabled.
The warning light remains on after the
“READY” light comes on.
The warning light comes on while driv-
ing.

The tire pressure warning system warns
you that the tire inflation pressure is
low.
The tire pressure warning system is not
a substitute for checking normal tire infla-
tion pressure. Check the tire inflation
pressure with a tire pressure gauge regu-
larly.
CAUTION
The warning system may not activate
immediately if bursts or sudden air
leakage should occur.
The tire pressure warning light comes on
when the “POWER” switch is selected in
“IG−ON” mode and goes off after a few
seconds. This means the tire pressure
warning light is operating properly. If the
tire inflation pressure becomes low, the
light comes on again. In this case, adjust-
ing the tire inflation pressure will turn off
the light after a few seconds. If the light
blinks, the tire pressure warning system is
not working properly. Indicator

CAUTION
If the tire pressure warning light
comes on, be sure to observe the
following precautions. Failure to do
so could cause 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.
If the tire pressure warning light
comes on even after tire inflation
pressure adjustment, it is probable
that you have a flat tire. Check the
tires. If the tire is flat, change to
the spare tire and have the flat tire
repaired by the nearest Toyota deal-
er.

IF THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING
LIGHT BLINKS...
If the tire pressure warning light blinks
when the “POWER” switch is selected
in “IGON” mode, the tire pressure
warning system is not working properly.
The system will be disabled in the follow-
ing conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the
system will work properly.)
If tires not equipped with tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters are
used.
If the ID code on the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters is not
registered.
If electronic devices or facilities using
similar radio wave frequencies are
nearby.
If a radio set at similar frequencies is
in use in the vehicle.
If a window tint that affects the radio
wave signals is installed.
If there is a lot of snow or ice on the
vehicle, in particular around the wheels
or wheel housings.
If non−genuine Toyota wheels are used.
If tire chains are used.
If the tire inflation pressure is 50 kpa
(0.5 kgf/cm2 or bar, 7.3 psi) or more
higher than the specified level.
If the tire pressure warning light blinks
frequently when “POWER” switch is se-
lected in “IG −ON” mode, have it checked
by your Toyota dealer.
Even if you use genuine wheels, the tire
pressure warning system may not work
properly with some types of tires.
Pushing the tire pressure warning reset
switch should not turn off the tire pressure
warning light. For vehicles sold in U.S.A.
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the
following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference received, includ-
ing interference that may cause unde-
sired operation.

When initializing the system, the present
tire inflation pressure is stored as stan-
dard. The tire pressure warning system
determines decreased air pressure by
comparing the present and the standard
tire inflation pressures. When you change
the set tire inflation pressure, it is neces-
sary to initialize the tire pressure warning
system.
When rotating the tires on vehicles dif-
fering with front and rear tire inflation
pressures.
When changing the tire size.To initialize the system, perform the fol-
lowing:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe place and the hybrid system is off.
2. Adjust the pressure of all the installed tires to the specified cold tire inflation
pressure level.(See “Tires” on page
429.)
3. Turn the “POWER” switch is selected in “IG −ON” mode.
4. Push and hold the tire pressure warn- ing reset switch until the tire pressure
warning light blinks slowly three times.
5. Wait for a few minutes with the “POW- ER” switch is selected in “IG −ON”
mode, and then turn the hybrid system
is off.
If you push the tire pressure reset switch
while vehicle is moving, initialization is not
performed.
If you push the tire pressure reset switch
accidentally and initialization is performed,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the
specified level and initialize the system
again.
25p124
If the tire pressure warning light does not
blink slowly three times when you push
and hold the reset switch, initialization has
failed and the tire pressure warning sys-
tem may not work properly. In this case,
initialize the system again. If initialization
cannot be performed, have the system
checked at your Toyota dealer.
