If the warning light comes on:
1. Check that the tire inflation pressure
is at the specified level. (See “Tires”
on page 330 in Section 8.)
2. If the tire inflation pressure is low,
adjust the tire inflation pressure.
Push the tire pressure warning sys-
tem reset switch for approximately 1
second and make sure the warning
light goes off.
3. If the tire inflation pressure is nor-
mal, the low tire pressure warning
system may not have been set cor-
rectly. Push and hold the tire pres-
sure warning system reset switch
until the warning light blinks three
times to reset the system.
For details, see “TIRE PRESSURE
WARNING SYSTEM RESET SWITCH”.
If the light remains on after the reset
switch has been pushed, have the tire
pressure warning system checked at your
Toyota dealer.
If you have a flat tire, replace it with the
spare tire. For details, see “If you have
a flat tire” on page 261 in Section 4.
If the warning light blinks once every

The low tire pressure warning system
needs to be initialized. Reset the system
with the tire pressure warning system re-
set switch. (To reset the system, see
