When Driving
If the Smart City Brake Support
(SCBS) is operating, the indicator
light (red) flashes.
●The collision warning beep sounds intermittently while the SCBS brake or
brake assist (SCBS brake assist) is operating.
● If the vehicle is stopped by the SCBS operation and the brake pedal is not
depressed, the warning beep sounds one time after about 2 seconds and
the SCBS brake is automatically released.
WARNING
■Do not modify the suspension
If the vehicle height or inclination is changed, the system will not be able to
correctly detect vehicles ahead. This will result in the Smart City Brake Sup-
port (SCBS) system not operating normally or mistakenly operating, which
could cause a serious accident.
■ Turn off the Smart City Brake Suppor t (SCBS) when the vehicle is run-
ning on a chassis roller or being towed
Turn off the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system to prevent mistaken
operation when the vehicle is running on a chassis roller or being towed.
Refer to Stopping The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) System Operation
on P. 210.
NOTICE
●When driving off-road in ar eas where there is grass or forage, it is recom-
mended that the Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) system be turned off.
● Always use tires for all wheels that are of the specified size, and the same
manufacturer, brand, and tread pattern. In addition, do not use tires with
significantly different wear patterns on the same vehicle as the Smart City
Brake Support (SCBS) system may not operate normally.

Laser Sensor∗
Always keep the surface of the
windshield around the laser sen-
sor clean to assure proper opera-
tion of the Smart City Brake
Support (SCBS) system.
∗: If equipped
The Smart City Brake Support (SCBS) laser sensor is installed at
the top of the windshield near the rearview mirror.
WARNING
■As there is the possibility of eye damage occurring from the laser,
always heed the following precautions
●Never remove the sensor.
● A removed sensor will not meet the conditions for a class 1M laser under
the IEC 60825-1 specification and therefore eye safety cannot be assured.
● Do not peer into the sensor using opt ical instruments with a magnification
function such as magnifying glasses, and microscopic and objective
lenses within a distance of 3.94 in. (100 mm) from the sensor.

3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Tire Pressure Monitoring System∗
The system monitors the tire pres-
sures indirectly using the data
sent from the ABS wheel speed
sensors.
To allow the system to operate correctly, the system needs to be ini-
tialized with the specified tire pressure (value on the tire pressure
label). Follow the procedure and perform the initialization.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 221.
The warning light flashes when the system has a malfunction.
Refer to Warning Lights on P. 157.
∗: If equipped
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) monitors the air
pressure of all four tires. If the air pressure of one or more tires
is too low, the system warns the driver by indicating the tire
pressure monitoring system warning light in the combination
meter and operating a beep sound.

When Driving
Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing
of the warning may be faster or slower in the following cases:
●The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the specifica-
tion.
●The size, manufacturer, or the type of a tire is different from the others,
or the level of tire wear is excessively different between them.
●A run-flat tire, studless tire, snow tire, or tire chains are used.
●An emergency tire is used (The tire pressure monitoring system warning
light may flash and then continue illuminating).
●A tire is repaired using the emergency flat tire repair kit.
●The tire pressure is excessively higher than the specified pressure, or
the tire pressure is suddenly lowered for some reason such as a tire
burst during driving.
●The vehicle speed is lower than about 9.3 mph (15 km/h) (including
when the vehicle is stopped), or the drive period is shorter than 5 min-
utes.
●The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road.
●Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as
during aggressive driving on a winding road.
●Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading heavy luggage
to one side of the vehicle.
●System initialization has not been implemented with the specified tire
pressure.

When Driving
In the following cases, system initialization must be performed so that
the system operates normally.
●A tire pressure is adjusted.
● Tire rotation is performed.
● A tire or wheel is replaced.
● The battery is replaced or completely drained.
● The tire pressure monitoring system warning light is illuminated.
■Initialization method
Park the car in a safe place and firmly apply the parking brake.
Let the tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure of all four (4) tires
to the specified pressure indicated on the tire pressure label
located on the door jamb of the driver’s door (door open).
Refer to Tires on P. 570.
Switch the ignition ON.
While the vehicle is parked,
press and hold the tire pres-
sure monitoring system set
switch and verify that the tire
pressure monitoring system
warning light in the combina-
tion meter flashes twice and
a beep sound is heard once.

NOTICE
If the system initialization is performed without adjusting the tire pres-
sure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure and it may not
illuminate the tire pressure monitoring system warning light even if a tire
pressure is low, or it may illuminate the light even if the pressures are
normal.
Adjust the tire pressure on all four tires and initialize the system when
the warning light is turned on. If the warning light turns on for a reason
other than a flat tire, the tire pressure of all four tires may have
decreased naturally.
The system initialization will not be performed if the switch is pressed
while the vehicle is being driven.
