Once the ignition switch is turned off, the
warning light also goes off. If the light
comes on again when the vehicle is
started after adjusting the tire pressure to
the specified level, have the tire pressure
warning system checked at your Toyota
dealer.
If you have a flat tire, replace it with the
spare tire. For details, see “If you have
a flat tire” on page 411 in Section 4.
Vehicles with runflat tires—
Decelerate at a speed below 90 km/h
(55 mph), then adjust the tire pressure
to the specified level as soon as pos-
sible. Do not drive more than 160 km
(100 miles).
When the tire pressure is below 140
kPa (1.4 kgf/cm2 or bar, 20 psi), con-
sult your Toyota dealer. If the tire is
flat or the tire pressure is below 100
kPa (1.0 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 15 psi), the
tire must be replaced. Do not use the
repaired tire.
When the tire pressure is 140 kPa (1.4
kgf/cm2 or bar, 20 psi) or more, adjust
it to specified level. (See “Tires” on
page 491 in Section 8.) Once the ignition switch is turned off,
the warning light also goes off. If the
light comes on again when the vehicle
is started after adjusting the tire pres-
sure to the specified level, have the
tire pressure warning system checked
at your Toyota dealer.
For details about the run −flat tires, see
“Run −flat tires” on page 469 in Section
7 −2.
If the warning light blinks once every
second:
The low tire pressure warning system may
be malfunctioning. Contact your Toyota

The low tire pressure warning system
needs to be initialized. Reset the system
with the tire pressure warning system re-
set switch. (To reset the system, see

RESET SWITCH”.) The tire pressure warning system does
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
low, or it may come on when the tire
pressure is actually normal.
The tread wear is uneven among the
tires.
A compact spare tire, snow tires, or
tire chains are used.
The tire pressure is excessively higher
than specified, or tire pressure sudden-
ly drops due to bursting or other
causes.
The vehicle is driven on a slippery
road surface such as rough or frozen
roads.
The vehicle speed is less than 30 km/h
(19 mph) or more than 100 km/h (62
mph), and the driving duration is less
than 5 minutes.
The tires differ in tread pattern or
manufacturer.
The tires are not the specified size.
The tread wear is very different among
the installed tires.
The pressure of two or more tires
drops at the same time.

1. Reduce your speed gradually,keeping a straight line. Move cau-
tiously off the road to a safe place
well away from the traffic. Avoid
stopping on the center divider of
a highway. Park on a level spot
with firm ground.
2. Stop the engine and turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Firmly set the parking brake and put the transmission in “P”.
4. Have everyone get out of the ve- hicle on the side away from traffic.
5. Read the following instructions thoroughly.
NOTICE
Do not continue driving with a
deflated tire. Driving even a
short distance can damage a
tire and wheel beyond repair.
Some vehicles are equipped with
runflat (RFT) tires. The runflat
tire allows you to continue driving
for up to 160 km (100 miles) at a
speed below 90 km/h (55 mph)
even if any tire goes flat. However,
in some conditions (such as high
temperatures), you could not con-
tinue driving for up to 160 km (100
miles).
When the tire goes flat or when the
tire pressure is below 100 kPa (1.0
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 15 psi), the tire
must be replaced. If you are not
sure, consult your Toyota dealer.
Do not use the repaired tire. There is an “RFT” or “DSST” mark on
the sidewall of the run
−flat tire.
For details about the run −flat tire, see
“Run −flat tires” on page 469 in Sec-
tion 7 −2.
Vehicles with compact spare tire—
When you replace the tire, see
“—Compact spare tire” through “—Af-
ter changing wheels”, pages 413
through 425 in this Section.

for temporary emergency use only.
The compact spare tire is identified
by the distinctive wording

into the side wall of the tire.
The compact spare tire saves space
in your luggage compartment, and its
lighter weight helps to improve fuel
economy and permits easier installa-
tion in case of a flat tire.The compact spare tire can be used
many times, if necessary. It has tread
life of up to 4800 km (3000 miles) de-
pending on road conditions and your
driving habits. When tread wear indi-
cators appear on the tire, replace the
tire.

463 in Section 7−
2 for details on the
tread wear indicators and other ser-
vice information.CAUTION

signed especially for your To-
yota. Do not use it on any other
vehicle.
 Do not use more than one com-
pact spare tire at the same
time.
 The pressure for the compact
spare tire must be 420 kPa (4.2
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 60 psi).
 Do not exceed 80 km/h (50
mph) when driving with the
compact spare tire.
Replace the compact spare tire
with the standard tire as soon
as possible.

sudden d eceleration and sharp
turns with the compact spare
tire.
NOTICE
Your ground clearance is re-
duced when the compact spare
tire is installed so avoid driving
over obstacles and drive slowly
on rough, unpaved roads and
speed bumps. Also, do not at-
tempt to go through an auto-
matic car wash as the vehicle
