Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Warning Indication/Warning Light (Turns on)
If a tyre pressure decreases below the specified air pressure, the TPMS warning light turns on.
At the same time, a message and the tyre pressure of each tyre are displayed on the multi-information display alternately. In addition, the tyre (s) with low air pressure is displayed in yellow.
Do not drive the vehicle at high speeds if the TPMS warning light turns on or flashes:
Driving the vehicle at high speeds while the TPMS warning light is turned on or flashing is dangerous because the brake performance and the steering wheel operability will be reduced. If the vehicle is driven at high speeds or the brakes are suddenly applied, it could lead to an accident. Gradually apply the brakes to lower the vehicle's speed.
Do not ignore the TPMS warning light when it is turned on or flashing:
Continuing to drive the vehicle while ignoring the illumination/flashing of the TPMS warning light is dangerous because a tyre may burst which could lead to an accident. Take appropriate measures as soon as possible.
While the TPMS is learning the tyre positions, such as immediately after a tyre position has been changed, the tyre pressure at the tyre position prior to it being changed is displayed until the system completes the learning. For this reason, the tyre pressures displayed for the tyre positions may be different from the actual tyre pressures at the tyre positions.
Action to be taken
Adjust the tyre pressures to the appropriate pressures.
Refer to Tyre Inflation Pressure (Search).
-
Adjust the tyre pressures while the tyres are cool. Because the air pressure in the tyres fluctuates depending on the temperature, before adjusting the tyre pressures, let the vehicle sit for an hour or drive it only within a 1.6 km (1 mile) distance. If the tyre pressures are adjusted while the tyres are warm, the tyre pressures may decrease below the specified air pressure after cooling down which could turn on the warning light. In addition, because the air pressure in the tyres decreases when the ambient temperature is low, if the ambient temperature increases, an illuminated TPMS warning light may turn off. Under any circumstances, always adjust the tyre pressures while the tyres are cool.
-
After adjusting the tyre pressures, the TPMS warning light turns off. If the TPMS warning light does not turn off, drive the vehicle at a speed of about 25 km (16 mph) or faster for 3 minutes or longer and make sure the warning light turns off.
If the TPMS warning light remains on even after adjusting the tyre pressures, one of the tyres may have a puncture.

Excessive Speed Warning
If the vehicle speed exceeds the speed limit sign displayed in the active driving display/instrument cluster, the area around the speed limit sign flashes in amber and the warning sound is activated at the same time. If the vehicle speed continues to exceed the displayed speed limit sign, the indication stops flashing and remains on.
Speed Limiter Warning Beep
If the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 5 km/h (3 mph) or more, a warning beep operates continuously. The warning beep operates until the vehicle speed decreases to the set speed or less.
If the set speed is set lower than the current vehicle speed by pressing the RES switch down (SET-) the warning beep is not activated for about 30 seconds even if the vehicle speed is faster than the newly set speed by 5 km/h (3 mph). Be careful not to drive over the set speed.
When the system is temporarily cancelled by depressing the accelerator pedal fully, the ISA display shows the cancel display. Even if the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed by about 5 km/h (3 mph) or more while the cancel display is displayed, the warning sound is not operated.
Collision warning
If there is a possibility of a collision with a vehicle ahead or an obstruction at the rear of the vehicle, a warning sound is activated intermittently at the same time as the warning indications are displayed in the instrument cluster or active driving display.
Door-ajar Warning Beep
A warning beep is activated if the vehicle is driven with a door ajar. Drive the vehicle after closing the doors.
