Rotate  the  tires  in  the  order
shown.
To  equalize  tire  wear  and  extend
tire  life,  Toyota  recommends  that
tire  rotation  is  carried  out  at  the
same interval as tire inspection.
Do  not  fail  to  initialize  the  tire
pressure  warning  system  after
tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses
tire  pressure  warning  valves  and   transmitters  to  detect  low  tire  infla-
tion pressure before serious problems arise. 
● The tire pressure detected by th e tire pressure warning system can
be displayed on the mul ti-information display.
● If  the  tire  pressure  drops  below
a  predetermined  level,  the
driver  is  warned  by  a  screen
display and a warning light.
The  illustration  used  is
intended  as  an  example,  and
may  differ  from  the  image  that
is  actually  displayed  on  the
multi-informat ion display.
◆Installing tire pressure warn ing valves and transmitters
When  replacing  tires  or  wheels,  tire  pressure  warning  valves  an d
transmitters must also be installed.
When  new  tire  pressure  warning  valves  and  transmitters  are
installed,  new  ID  codes  must  be  registered  in  the  tire  pressure
warning  computer  and  the  tire  pressure  warning  system  must  be
initialized.

◆Initializing the tire pressure warning system
■The tire pressure warning system must be initialized in the fol-
lowing circumstances:
● When rotating the tires.
● When the tire inflation pressure is changed such as when chang-
ing tire size. (When there are  multiple specified pressures)
● After registeri ng the ID codes. ( P. 429)
When the tire pressure warning sy stem is initialized, the current tire
inflation pressure is set  as the benchmark pressure.
■How to initialize the tire pressure warning system
Park the vehicle in s afe place and turn the  engine switch off.
Initialization cannot be perfo rmed while the vehicle is moving.
Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire i nflation
pressure level. ( P. 529)
Make  sure  to  adjust  the  tire  pre ssure  to  the  specified  cold  tire infla-
tion  pressure  level.  The  tire  pressure  warning  system  will  oper ate
based on this pr essure level.
Turn the engine switch to ON.
Push  and  hold  the  tire  pres-
sure  warning  reset  switch
until  the  tire  pressure  warn-
ing light blinks 3 times.
A message is displayed on the
multi-information  display. Also,
“-  -”  is  displayed  for  inflation
pressure of each tire on the
multi-information  display  while
the  tire  pressure  warning  sys-
tem determines the position.

Drive  straight  (with  occasional  left  and  right  turns)  at  approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more for approximately 10 to 30 min-
utes. 
Initialization is complete when the position of each tire is determined
and the inflation pressure of ea ch tire is displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display. 
Initialization  may  take  longer  than  approximately  30  minutes  in  cer-
tain situations, such as when the vehicle is stopped for a long time at
traffic lights, etc. ( P. 433) 
◆Registering ID codes
Every  tire  pressure  warning  valve  and  transmitter  has  a  unique  ID
code. When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmit ter,
it is necessary to register the ID codes.
To register the ID codes, perf orm the following procedure:
Press the tire pressure warn-
ing  reset  switch  3  times  until
the  tire  pressure  warning
light blinks slowly 3 times.
Then  a  message  will  be  dis-
played  on  multi-information
display.
When registration is being per-
formed, the tire pressure warn-
ing  light  will  blink  for
approximately  1  minute  then
illuminate  and  “-  -”  will  be  dis-
played  for  the  inflation  pres-
sure  of  each  tire  on  the  multi-
information display.

Drive  straight  (with  occasional  left  and  right  turns)  at  approxi-
mately 25 mph (40 km/h) or more for approximately 10 to 30 min-
utes.
Registration  is  complete  when  the  tire  pressure  warning  light
turns off and the inflation pressure of each tire is displayed on the
multi-information display.
Registration  may  take  longer  t han  approximately  30  minutes  in
certain situations, such as when  the vehicle is stopped for a long
time at traffic lights, etc. (
P. 433)
After  registering  the  ID  codes,  make  sure  to  initialize  the  tir e
pressure warning system. (
P.   4 2 8 )
■When to replace your vehicle’s tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●The treadwear indicators  are showing on a tire.
●You  have  tire  damage  such  as  cuts,  splits,  cracks  deep  enough  t o
expose the fabric, and bulges indicating internal damage
●A tire goes flat repeatedly or c annot be properly repaired due  to the size
or location of a cut or other damage
If you are not sure, consult  with your Toyota dealer.
■When replacing the tires and wheels
If the ID code of the tire press ure warning valve and transmitt er is not reg-
istered, the tire pressure warni ng system will not work properly.  A f t e r   d r i v -
ing  for  about  20  minutes,  the  tire  pressure  warning  light  blink s  for  1
minute and stays on to indi cate a system malfunction.
■Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must  be checked by a qualified techni cian even
if it has seldom or never been u sed, or damage is not obvious.
■Routine tire inflation pressure checks
The  tire  pressure  warning  system  does  not  replace  routine  tire  inflation
pressure  checks.  Make  sure  to  chec k  tire  inflation  pressure  as part  of
your routine of daily vehicle checks.

Initializing the tire pressure warning system
Initialize the system 
with the tire inflation  pressure adjusted  to  the  speci-
fied level.
■If the tread on snow tires wea rs down below 0.16 in. (4 mm)
The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.
■Situations  in  which  the  tire  pressure  warning  system  may  not  op er-
ate properly
●In the following cases, the tire pressure warning system may no t operate
properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are used. 
• A tire has been replaced with a  tire that is not an OE (Original Equip-
ment) tire.
• A tire has been replac ed with a tire that is not of the specif ied size.
• Tire chains, etc., are equipped.
• An auxiliary-supported ru n-flat tire is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is instal led.
• If  there  is  a  lot  of  snow  or  ice  on  the  vehicle,  particularly  around  the
wheels or wheel housings.
• If  the  tire  inflation  pressure  is  extremely  higher  than  the  sp ecified
level.
• If  wheel  without  the  tire  pressure  warning  valve  and  transmitt er  is
used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmi tters is
not registered in the tire  pressure warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in the following situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio stat ion, large
display,  airport  or  other  facilit y  that  generates  strong  radio  waves  or
electrical noise
• When  carrying  a  portable  radio,  cellular  phone,  cordless  phone  or
other wireless communication device
If  tire  position  information  is  not  correctly  displayed  due  to  the  radio
wave conditions, the display may be corrected by driving and ch anging
the radio wave conditions. 
●When the vehicle is parked, the time taken for the warning to s tart or go
off could be extended.
●When tire inflation pressure declines rapidly for example when  a tire has
burst, the warning may not function.

The initialization operation
●Make sure to carry out initializ
ation after adjusting the tire inflation pres-
sure. 
Also, make sure the tires are co ld before carrying out initialization or tire
inflation pressure adjustment.
●If  you  have  accidentally  turned  the  engine  switch  to  OFF  during  initial-
ization, it is not necessary to press the reset switch again as  initialization
will restart automatically when the  engine switch has been turned to ON
for the next time.
●If you accidentally press the reset switch when initialization  is not neces-
sary,  adjust  the  tire  inflation  pressure  to  the  specified  level   when  the
tires are cold, and cond uct initialization again.
●While the position of each tire is being determined and the inf lation pres-
sures  are  not  being  displayed  on  the  multi-information  display,   if  the
inflation pressure of a tire drops, the tire pressure warning l ight will come
on.
■Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system
The  warning  of  the  tire  pressu re  warning  system  will  change  in  accor-
dance  with  the  conditions  under  which  it  was  initialized.  For  t his  reason,
the system may give a warning even if the tire pressure does no t reach a
low  enough  level,  or  if  the  pressure  is  higher  than  the  pressur e  that  was
adjusted to when the sys tem was initialized.
■When initialization of the tire  pressure warning system has fai led
Initialization  may  take  longer  to   complete  if  the  vehicle  is  driven  on  an
unpaved  road.  When  performing  ini tialization,  drive  on  a  paved road  if
possible. Depending on the driving environment and condition of  the tires,
initialization will be completed i n approximately 10 to 30 minutes. If initial-
ization is not complete after dr iving approximately 10 to 30 mi nutes, con-
tinue driving for a while.
If  the  inflation  pressure  of  each  tire  is  not  displayed  after  d riving  for
approximately 1 hour, perf orm the following procedure.
●Park  the  vehicle  in  a  safe  place  for  approximately  20  minutes. Then
drive  straight  (with  occasional  left  and  right  turns)  at  approx imately
25 mph (40 km/h) or more for approximately 10 to 30 minutes.
However, in the following  situatio ns, the tire inflation  pressure will  not  be
recorded  and  the  system  will  not  operate  properly.  Perform  initialization
again.
●When operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire  pressure
warning light does  not blink 3 times.
●After  performing  initialization,  t he  tire  pressure  warning  light  blinks  for
1 minute then stays on while  driving about 20 minutes.
If the inflation pressure of eac h tire is still not displayed, have the vehicle
inspected by you r Toyota dealer.
