2193-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
3
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.

3-12. Tire Pressure Monitoring System
NOTICE
●Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres-
sure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-
inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated
tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-infla-
tion also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the
vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger
illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indica-
tor to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure
telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash
for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups
as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire
pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or
wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or
alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop-
erly.
●To avoid false readings, the system samples for a little while before
indicating a problem. As a result it will not instantaneously register a
rapid tire deflation or blow out.

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.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization

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.

played on the screen as a reference to the approximate width of the
vehicle in comparison to the width of the parking space you are about
to back into.
Use this display view for parking your vehicle in a parking space or
garage.Vehicle width guide lines (yel-
low)
These guide lines serve as a
reference to the approximate
width of the vehicle.
Distance guide lines
These guide lines indicate the
approximate distance to a point
measured from the vehicle’s
rear (from the end of the
bumper).
The red and yellow lines indicate the points about 19 in. (500 mm)
for the red line and 39.3 in. (1000 mm) for the yellow lines from the
rear bumper (at the center point of each of the lines).

When Driving
The operation of the rear view monitor when reversing the vehicle var-
ies depending on the traffic, road, and vehicle conditions. The amount
of steering and the timing also varies depending on conditions, so
confirm the surrounding conditions directly with your eyes and steer
the vehicle in accordance with the conditions.
Be well aware of the above cautions prior to using the rear view moni-
tor.Shift the shift lever to R to switch the display to the rear view moni-
tor display.
Confirming the surrounding conditions, reverse the vehicle.
After your vehicle begins entering the parking space, continue
backing up slowly so that the distance between the vehicle width
lines and the sides of the parking space on the left and right are
roughly equal.
Continue to adjust the steering wheel until the vehicle width guide
lines are parallel to the left and right sides of the parking space.

Once they are parallel, straighten the wheels and back your vehicle
slowly into the parking space. Continue checking the vehicle’s sur-
roundings and then stop the vehicle in the best possible position. (If
the parking space has division lines, check whether the vehicle
width guide lines are parallel to them.)
When the shift lever is shifted from R to another shift lever position,
the screen returns to the previous display.
●Images displayed on the monitor from the rear view parking camera are
reversed images (mirror images).
● Because there may be a difference between the displayed image, such as
indicated below, and the actual conditions when parking, always verify the
safety at the rear of the vehicle and the surrounding area directly with your
eyes.
• In the image of the parking space (or garage) displayed below, even though the back end and distance guide lines appear parallel in the mon-
itor, they may not actually be parallel on the ground.
