cient or the voltage temporarily drops, the
electric power steering system warning
light may come on and the warning buzzer
may sound.

When the tire pressure warning light
comes on
 Except for Chile
Carry out the following procedure after the
tire temperature has lowered sufficiently.
●
Check the tire inflation pressure and
adjust to the appropriate level.
●
If the warning light does not go out even
after several minutes, check that the tire
inflation pressure is at the specified level
and carry out initialization.
The warning light may come on again if the
above operations are conducted without
first allowing the tire temperature to lower
sufficiently.
 For Chile
Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust
to the appropriate level. Pushing the tire
pressure warning reset switch will not turn
off the tire pressure warning light.
■
The tire pressure warning light may
come on due to natural causes
The tire pressure warning light may come
on due to natural causes such as natural air
leaks and tire inflation pressure changes
caused by temperature. In this case, adjust-
ing the tire inflation pressure will turn off the
warning light (after a few minutes).
■
When a tire is replaced with the spare
tire (if equipped)
The spare tire is not equipped with a tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter. If a
tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light
will not turn off even though the flat tire has
been replaced with the spare tire.

serious injury.
