'05 Solara_U (L/O 0409) Tire pressure warning system The tire pressure warning system is designed to provide warning when tire inflation pressure of any one of the tires is critically low while the vehicle is moving. The low tire pressure warning light comes on to inform you that such low tire pressure may hamper driving. This system is not designed to operate when the vehicle is stopped. Therefore, check the tire inflation pressure regularly. The recommended cold tire inflation pressure, tire size and the vehicle capacity weight are on the tire and loading information label. (For instructions, see "Checking tire inflation pressure" on page 307 in Section 7−2.) Installed tires should be of the specified size. They should be of the same size and construction. If tires other than the specified size are used, or if tires of different sizes or constructions are mixed, the tire pressure warning system will not function properly. If the warning light comes on: 1. Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level as soon as possible. (See "Tires" on page 332 in Section 8.) 2. Push the tire pressure warning system reset switch for approximately one second and make sure the warning light goes off. If the light remains on after the reset switch has been pushed, have the tire pressure warning system checked at your Toyota dealer. LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT This light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the "ON" position. It goes off after a few seconds. This indicates that the tire pressure warning system is functioning properly. If the low tire pressure warning light comes on or blinks while driving, do the following. If you have a flat tire, replace it with the spare tire. For details, see "If you have a flat tire" on page 263 in Section 4. If the warning light blinks once every second: The low tire pressure warning system may be malfunctioning. Contact your Toyota dealer. If the warning light blinks twice every second: The low tire pressure warning system needs to be initialized. Reset the system with the tire pressure warning system reset switch. (To reset the system, see "TIRE PRESSURE WARNING SYSTEM RESET SWITCH".) 151 2005 SOLARA from Sep. '04 Prod. (OM33690U)
