not function properly under certain cir-
cumstances. In the following cases, the
low tire pressure warning light may not
come on even if the tire pressure is

The tread wear is uneven among the
installed tires.
A compact spare tire, snow tires, or
tire chains are used.
The tire pressure is excessively higher
than specified, or tire pressure is sud-
denly reduced due to bursts or other
causes.

road surface such as rough road and
frozen road.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM
RESET SWITCH
Pushing this reset button after replac-
ing or rotating tires or wheels memo-
ries the present tire condition as a
standard.
After replacing or rotating the tires or
wheels, perform the initial adjustment as
follows.
1. Park the vehicle at a safe place and
apply the parking brake. Stop the en-
gine.
2. Adjust pressures of all the installed
tires to the specified level. (See “Tires”
in Section 8.)
3. Turn the ignition key to “ON”.4. With the vehicle stopped, push the re-
set switch on the left lower instrument
panel and hold it until the low tire
pressure warning light blinks for three
times.
5. The initial adjustment is completed af-
ter driving at the speeds of 30 km/h
(19 mph) or over for about total 8
hours, when the tire pressure warning
system detects the normal tire pressur-
es.
Do not push the reset switch without ad-
justing the tire pressure to the specified
level. Otherwise, the low tire pressure
warning light may not come on even if the
tire pressure is low, or it may come on
when the tire pressure is actually normal.
If you push the reset switch while the
vehicle is moving, the initial adjustment is
not performed.
If the low tire pressure warning light does
not blink when you push and hold the
reset switch, have the low pressure warn-
ing system checked at your Toyota dealer.

—After changing wheels
11. Check the air pressure of the re-
placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specification
designed in Section 8. If the pressure is
lower, drive slowly to the nearest service
station and fill to the correct pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire inflation
valve cap as dirt and moisture could get
into the valve core and possibly cause air
leakage. If the cap is missing, have a new
one put on as soon as possible.
12. Restow all the tools, jack and flat
tire securely.
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the wheel nuts to the torque
specified in Section 8 with a torque
wrench. Have a technician repair the flat
tire.
