WARNING

■

Replacing a flat tire

●

Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immedi-

ately after the vehicle has been driven.

After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area around

the brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet

or other body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns.

●

Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to

loosen and the tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.

Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tight-

ened, leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. Remove any oil or

grease that has adhered when installing the wheel nuts.

• After replacing a tire, check the tightening torque as soon as possi-

ble.

Wheel nut torque: 76 ft•lbf (103 N•m, 10.5 kgf•m)

• Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off

the wheel while the vehicle is moving.

• When installing a tire, only use wheel nuts that have been specifi-

cally designed for that wheel.

• If there are any cracks or deformations in the bolt screws, nut

threads or bolt holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by

your Toyota dealer.

• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install them with the

tapered ends facing inward.

Remove any dirt or foreign mat-

ter from the wheel contact sur-

face.

If foreign matter is on the wheel

contact surface, the wheel nuts

may loosen while the vehicle is in

motion, causing the tire to come

off.

Install the tire and loosely tighten each wheel nut by hand by

approximately the same amount.
When replacing a steel wheel

with a steel wheel, tighten the

wheel nuts until the tapered

portion comes into loose con-

tact with the disc wheel seat.

WARNING

■

When attempting to free a stuck vehicle

If you choose to push the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the

surrounding area is clear to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or people.

The vehicle may also lunge forward or lunge back suddenly as it becomes

free. Use extreme caution.

■

When shifting the shift lever

Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed.

This may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may

cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.

NOTICE

■

To avoid damaging the transmission and other components

●

Avoid spinning the front wheels and depressing the accelerator pedal

more than necessary.

●

If the vehicle remains stuck even after these procedures are performed,

the vehicle may require towing to be freed.
