When a tire is replaced with a spare tire
Vehicles with compact spare tire: The compact 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. Replace the spare tire with the repaired
tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure warning light
will go off after a few minutes.
Vehicles with full-size spare tire: The spare tire is also equipped with a tire
pressure warning valve and transmitter. The tire pressure warning light
will turn on if the tire inflation pressure of the spare tire is low. 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. Replace the spare tire with the
repaired tire and adjust the tire inflation pressure. The tire pressure warn-
ing light will go off after a few minutes.

by your Toyota dealer.
