The initialization operation (vehicles with the tire pressure warning sys-
tem)
●
Make sure to carry out initialization after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.
Also, make sure the tires are cold before carrying out initialization or tire
inflation pressure adjustment.
●
If you have accidentally turned the engine switch to the “LOCK” position
(vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with a smart
entry & start system) during initialization, it is not necessary to press the
reset switch again as initialization will restart automatically when the engine
switch has been turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart entry
& start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart entry & start
system) for the next time.
● If you accidentally press the reset switch when initialization is not necessary,
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level when the tires are
cold, and conduct initialization again.
● Vehicles with multi-information display: While the position of each tire is
being determined and the inflation pressures are not being displayed on the
multi-information display, if the inflation pressure of a tire drops, the tire
pressure warning light will come on.
■ Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system (vehicles with
the tire pressure warning system)
For some models, the warning of the tire pressure warning system will
change in accordance with the conditions under which it was initialized. For
this reason, the system may give a warning even if the tire pressure does not
reach a low enough level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressure that
was adjusted to when the system was initialized.
■ When initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed (vehi-
cles with the tire pressure warning system)
Initialization may take longer to complete if the vehicle is driven on an
unpaved road. When performing initialization, drive on a paved road if possi-
ble. Depending on the driving environment and condition of the tires, initial-
ization will be completed in approximately 10 minutes. If initialization is not
complete after driving approximately 10 minutes, continue driving for a while.
If the inflation of each tire is not displayed after driving for approximately 1
hour, perform the following procedure.
● Park the vehicle in a safe place for approximately 20 minutes. Then drive
straight (with occasional left and right turns) at approximately 40 km/h
(25 mph) or more for approximately 10 to 20 minutes.
However, in the following situations, the tire inflation pressure will not be
recorder and the system will not operate properly. Perform initialization.
● When operating the tire pressure warning reset switch, the tire pressure
warning light does not blink 3 times.
● After performing initialization, the tire pressure warning light blinks for 1 min-
ute then stays on after driving for about 20 minutes.
