NOTE

Because this system detects slight changes in tire conditions, the timing of the warning may be faster
or slower in the following cases:

l

The size, manufacturer, or the type of tires is different from the specification.

l

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.

l

A run-flat tire, studless tire, snow tire, or tire chains are used.

l

An emergency tire is used (The tire pressure monitoring system warning light may flash and then
continue illuminating).

l

A tire is repaired using the emergency flat tire repair kit.

l

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.

l

The vehicle speed is lower than about 15 km/h (9.3 mph) (including when the vehicle is stopped),
or the drive period is shorter than 5 minutes.

l

The vehicle is driven on an extremely rough road or a slippery, icy road.

l

Hard steering and rapid acceleration/deceleration are repeated such as during aggressive driving
on a winding road.

l

Load on the vehicle is applied to a tire such as by loading heavy luggage to one side of the
vehicle.

l

System initialization has not been implemented with the specified tire pressure.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
Initialization

In the following cases, system
initialization must be performed so that
the system operates normally.

l

A tire pressure is adjusted.

l

Tire rotation is performed.

l

A tire or wheel is replaced.

l

The battery is replaced or completely
drained.

l

The tire pressure monitoring system
warning light is illuminated.

Initialization method

1. Park the car in a safe place and firmly

apply the parking brake.

2. 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 page 9-7.

3. Switch the ignition ON.
