system will not work properly. After
driving for about 20 minutes, the tire
pressure warning light blinks for 1
minute and stays on to indicate a
system malfunction.
■The tire pressure warning
system must be initialized
in the following circum-
stances:
 When rotating the tires. 
When changing the tire.
 After registering the ID codes.
( P.582)
When the tire pressure warning
system is initialized, the current
tire inflation pressure is set as
the benchmark pressure.

more for approximately 10 to
30 minutes.
When initialization is complete, the
inflation pressure of each tire will be
displayed on the multi-information
display.
Even if the vehicle is not driven at
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h) or
more, initialization can be com-
pleted by driving for a long time.
However, if initia lization does not
complete after driving for 1 hour or
more, park the vehicle in a safe
place for approximately 20 minutes
and then drive th e vehicle again.
■When initializing
●Vehicles with tire inflation pres-
sure display funct ion only: Initial-
ization is perform ed while driving
at a vehicle speed of approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more.
●Make sure to carry out initializa-
tion after adjusting the tire inflation
pressure. Also, make sure the
tires are cold before carrying out
initialization or tir e inflation pres-
sure adjustment.
●Vehicles with tire inflation pres-
sure display function only: The tire
pressure warning system can be
initialized by your self, but depend-
ing on the driving conditions and
driving environment, initialization
may take some ti me to complete.
■The initialization operation
●If you have accidentally turned the
engine switch to OFF during ini-
tialization, it is not necessary to
restart the initialization again as
initialization will restart automati-
cally when the engine switch has
been turned to ON for the next
time.
●If you accidentally perform the ini-
tialization when ini tialization is not
necessary, adjust the tire inflation
pressure to the specified level
when the tires are cold, and con-
duct initialization again.
●Vehicles with tire inflation pres-
sure display function only: While
the position of each tire is being
determined and the inflation pres-
sures are not being displayed on
the multi-info rmation display, if the
inflation pressure of a tire drops,
the tire pre ssure warning light will
come on.
■When initializat ion of the tire
pressure warning system has
failed (vehicles without tire
inflation pressu re display func-
tion)
Initialization can be completed in a
few minutes. However, in the follow-
ing cases, the settings have not
been recorded and the system will
not operate properly. If repeated
attempts to record tire inflation pres-
sure settings ar e unsuccessful,
have the vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
●When operating the tire pressure
warning reset switch, the tire pres-
sure warning light does not blink 3
times.
●After driving for a certain period of
time since the initialization has
been completed, the warning light
comes on after bl inking for 1 min-
ute.
■If the tire pressure warning sys-
tem is not initialized properly
(vehicles with tire inflation pres-
sure display function)
In the following situ ations, initializa-
tion may take longer than usual to
be completed or may not be possi-
ble. Normally, initialization com-
pletes within ap proximately 30
minutes.
• Vehicle is not dr iven at approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehi-
cles and system cannot recog-
nize tire pressure warning valve
and transmitters o f 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
approximately 20 minutes and then
drive the vehicle again.
●If the vehicle is reversed during
initialization, the data up to that
point is reset, so perform the ini-
tialization procedure again from
the beginning.
●In the following si tuations, initial-
ization will not be started or was
not completed properly and the
system will not ope rate properly.
Perform the initialization proce-
dure again.
• If, when attempting to start initial- ization, the tire pressure warning
light does not b link 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 the inflation pressure of each tire
is still not displayed, have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
For models made in Japan*1
without tire inflation pressure
display function
Every tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter has a
unique ID code. In addition to
the set of tire pressure warning
system sensor ID codes initially
registered to the vehicle, a sec-
ond set of ID codes can be reg-
istered. A second set of tire
pressure warning system sensor
ID codes can be registered at
your Toyota dealer. When 2 sets
of ID codes have been regis-
tered, either ID code set can be
selected.
