Maintenance and care
●ID codes can be registered by your-
self, but depending on the driving con-
ditions and driving environment,
registration may take some time to
complete.
●As the tires will be warm when regis-
tration is completed, make sure to
allow the tires to cool before perform-
ing initialization.
■Canceling ID code registration
●To cancel ID code registration after it
has been started, select “Identifying
Each Wheel & Position” on the multi-
information display and press and
hold again.
●If ID code registration has been can-
celed, the tire pressure warning light
will blink for approximately 1 minute
when the power switch is turned to
ON and then illuminate. The tire pres-
sure warning system will be opera-
tional when the tire pressure warning
light turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn off
even after several minutes have
elapsed, ID code registration may not
have been canceled correctly. To can-
cel registration, perform the ID code
registration start procedure again and
then turn the power switch off before
driving.
■If ID codes are not registered prop-
erly
●In the following situations, ID code
registration may take longer than
usual to be completed or may not be
possible. Normally, registration com-
pletes within approximately 30 min-
utes.
If ID code registration is not complete
after driving for approximately 30 min-
utes, continue driving for a while.
• Vehicle is not parked for approxi-
mately 20 minutes or more before
driving
• Vehicle is not driven at approximately
40 km/h (25 mph) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehicles and system cannot recognize tire
pressure warning valve and transmit-
ters of your vehicle over those of other
vehicles
• Wheel with tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter installed is
inside or near the vehicle
If registration does not complete after
driving for 1 hour or more, perform the
ID code registration procedure again
from the beginning.
●If the vehicle is reversed during regis-
tration, the data up to that point is
reset, so perform the registration pro-
cedure again from the beginning.
●In the following situations, ID code
registration will not be started or was
not completed properly and the sys-
tem will not operate properly. Perform
the ID code registration procedure
again.
• If, when attempting to start ID code
registration, the tire pressure warning
light does not blink slowly 3 times.
• If, when the vehicle has been driven
for about 10 minutes after performing
ID code registration, the tire pressure
warning light blinks for approximately
1 minute and then illuminates.
●If ID code registration cannot be com-
pleted after performing the above pro-
cedure, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Your vehicle is equipped with tire
pressure warning system with the
function to have ID codes regis-
tered for a second wheel set, for
example a winter set. You can reg-
ister a second wheel set by your-
self, any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
Selecting wheel set

5287-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
After registration of a second wheel
set, either of these two wheel sets
can be selected for usage with the
tire pressure warning system.
■Operating conditions for the
function
This function will perform the
change of wheel set only if a sec-
ond wheel set has been regis-
tered. If no second wheel set has
been registered, no change will
be made when selecting this
function in the menu.
Only a change between both
registered wheel set is possible,
mixing between these wheel sets
is not supported.
■How to change between wheel
sets
1Have the vehicle fitted with the
preferred wheel set.
2Press or of the meter
control switches on the steering
wheel and select .
3Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“Vehicle Settings”, and then
press and hold .4Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“TPWS”, and then press .
5Press or of the meter
control switches and select
“Identifying Each Wheel & Posi-
tion”. Then press and hold
until the tire pressure warning
light starts slowly blinking 3
times.
Afterward, the tire pressure warning
light turns on after flashing for 1 minute.
After 2 minutes, registration of a sec-
ond wheel set is being performed. The
tire pressure warning light will turn off
and “--” will be displayed for the inflation
pressure of each tire on the multi-infor-
mation display.
6Initialize the tire pressure warn-
ing system. (P.523)
If the tire inflation pressure settings for
the installed tires change, initialization
operations are required, but if the tire
inflation pressure settings are the
same, initialization is not required.
Drive straight (with occasional left
and right turns) at approximately 40
km/h (25 mph) or more for approxi-
mately 10 to 30 minutes.
Registration of a second wheel set is

Maintenance and care
complete when the tire pressure warn-
ing light turns off and the inflation pres-
sure of each tire is displayed on the
multi-information display.
■Effects of incorrect tire inflation
pressure
Driving with incorrect tire inflation pres-
sure may result in the following:
●Reduced fuel economy
●Reduced driving comfort and poor
handling
●Reduced tire life due to wear
●Reduced safety
●Damage to the drive train
If a tire needs frequent inflating, have it
checked by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer.
■Instructions for checking tire infla-
tion pressure
When checking tire inflation pressure,
observe the following:
●Check only when the tires are cold.
If your vehicle has been parked for at
least 3 hours or has not been driven
for more than 1.5 km or 1 mile, you
will get an accurate cold tire inflation
pressure reading.
●Always use a tire pressure gauge.
It is difficult to judge if a tire is properly
inflated based only on its appearance.
●It is normal for the tire inflation pres-
sure to be higher after driving as heat
is generated in the tire. Do not reduce
tire inflation pressure after driving.
●Passengers and luggage weight
Tire inflation pressure
Make sure to maintain the
proper tire inflation pressure.
Tire inflation pressure should
be checked at least once per
month. However, Toyota rec-
ommends that tire inflation
pressure be checked once
every two weeks. (P.624)

5307-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
should be placed so that the vehicle is
balanced.
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that they
are equivalent to those removed in
load capacity, diameter, rim width
and inset*.
Replacement wheels are available
at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Toyota does not recommend using
the following:
 Wheels of different sizes or types
 Used wheels
 Bent wheels that have been
straightened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must be installed.
( P.511, 531)
WARNING
■Proper inflation is critical to save tire performance
Keep your tires properly inflated. If the tires are not properly inflated, the following conditions may occur
which could lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
●Excessive wear
●Uneven wear
●Poor handling
●Possibility of blowouts resulting
from overheated tires
●Air leaking from between tire and
wheel
●Wheel deformation and/or tire dam-
age
●Greater possibility of tire damage
while driving (due to road hazards, expansion joints, sharp edges in the road, etc.)
NOTICE
■When inspecting and adjusting
tire inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back on.
If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or moisture may get into the valve and cause an air leak, resulting in
decreased tire inflation pressure.
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should be
replaced. Otherwise, the tire
may separate from the wheel
or cause a loss of handling
control.

Maintenance and care
 Use only Toyota wheel nuts and
wrenches designed for use with
your aluminum wheels.
 When rotating, repairing or
changing your tires, check that
the wheel nuts are still tight after
driving 1600 km (1000 miles).
 Be careful not to damage the
aluminum wheels when using
tire chains.
 Use only Toyota genuine bal-
ance weights or equivalent and a
plastic or rubber hammer when
balancing your wheels.
WARNING
■When replacing wheels
●Do not use wheels that are a differ-
ent size from those recommended in the Owner’s Manual, as this may result in a loss of handling control.
●Never use an inner tube in a leak-ing wheel which is designed for a
tubeless tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or seri-ous injury.
■When installing the wheel nuts
●Be sure to install the wheel nuts
with the tapered ends facing inward. ( P.597) Installing the nuts with the tapered ends facing out-
ward can cause the wheel to break and eventually cause the wheel to come off while driving, which could
lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
●Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts. Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts
to be excessively tightened, leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can
cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing an accident and resulting in death or
serious injury. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
■Use of defective wheels prohib-ited
Do not use cracked or deformed wheels.
Doing so could cause the tire to leak
air during driving, possibly causing an accident.
NOTICE
■Replacing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
●Because tire repair or replacement may affect the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters, make sure
to have tires serviced by any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer or other qualified service shop. In addition, make sure to pur-chase your tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
●Ensure that only genuine Toyota
wheels are used on your vehicle. Tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not work properly
with non-genuine wheels.
