5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

CAUTION

If the tire pressure warning light comes on

Be sure to observe the following precautions. Failure to do so could
cause loss of vehicle control and result in death or serious injury.

Vehicles with run-flat tires:

• Decelerate to the lowest appropriate speed as soon as possible.

Do not drive over 55 mph (90 km/h).

• Check and adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
• If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation

pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Have
the tire replaced by the nearest Toyota dealer.

• Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deterio-

rate, you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.

Vehicles with standard tires:

• Stop your vehicle in a safe place as soon as possible. Adjust the

tire inflation pressure immediately.

• If the tire pressure warning light comes on even after tire inflation

pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check
the tires. If the tire is flat, change to the spare tire and have the flat
tire repaired by the nearest Toyota dealer.

• Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking. If the vehicle tires deterio-

rate, you could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.

If a blowout or sudden air leakage should occur

The tire pressure warning system may not activate immediately.
