Drive at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or more for approxi-
6
mately 10 to 30 minutes.
Registration is complete when the tire pressure warning light turns off
and the inflation pressure of each tire is displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display.
Even if the vehicle is not driven at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or
more, registration can be completed by driving for a long time. However,
if registration does not complete after driving for 1 hour or more, perform
the procedure again from the beginning.
Initialize the tire pressure warning system. (P. 470)

When to replace your vehicle's tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●
The treadwear indicators are showing on a tire.
●
You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to expose
the fabric, and bulges indicating internal damage
●
A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly repaired due to the size or
location of a cut or other damage
If you are not sure, consult with your Toyota dealer.
■
Replacing tires and wheels (vehicles with a tire pressure warning sys-
tem)
If the ID codes of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters are not reg-
istered, the tire pressure warning system will not work properly. In this case,
after driving for about 10 minutes, the tire pressure warning light will blink for
approximately 1 minute and then illuminate to indicate a system malfunction.
■
Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if it
has seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious.
■
Routine tire inflation pressure checks (vehicles with a tire pressure
warning system)
The tire pressure warning system does not replace routine tire inflation pres-
sure checks. Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as part of your routine
of daily vehicle checks.
■
Low profile tires (vehicles with 18-inch wheels)
Generally, low profile tires will wear more rapidly and tire grip performance
will be reduced on snowy and/or icy roads when compared to standard tires.
Be sure to use snow tires on snowy and/or icy roads and drive carefully at a
speed appropriate for road and weather conditions.
■
If the tread on snow tires wears down below 4 mm (0.16 in.)
The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.
