5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
■
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
(vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such
as natural air leaks and tire inflation pressure changes caused by tem-
perature. In this case, adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the
warning light (after a few minutes).
■
When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with a tire pres-
sure warning system)
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 infla-
tion pressure. The tire pressure warning light will go off after a few min-
utes.
■
If the tire pressure warning system is not functioning (vehicles with
a tire pressure warning system)
The system will be disabled in the following conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
●
If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters are used
●
If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
are not registered in the tire pressure warning computer
●
If the tire inflation pressure is 73 psi (500 kPa, 5.1 kgf/cm
2
or bar) or
higher
The tire pressure warning system may be disabled in the following condi-
tions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
●
If electronic devices or facilities using similar radio wave frequencies
are nearby
●
If a radio set at a similar frequency is in use in the vehicle
●
If a window tint that affects the radio wave signals is installed
●
