WARNING

■

Replacing a flat tire

●

Observe the following precautions.

Failure to do so may result in serious injury:
• Lower the spare tire completely to the ground before removing it

from under the vehicle.

• Do not try to remove the wheel ornament by hand. Take due care in

handling the ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury.

• 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.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench as soon as pos-

sible after changing wheels.

Steel wheel: 154 ft·lbf (209 N·m, 21.3 kgf·m)

Aluminum wheel: 97 ft·lbf (131 N·m, 13.4 kgf·m)

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

cally designed for that wheel.

• Retighten the wheel nuts within 100 miles (160 km) of driving.

• 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.

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

the wheel while the vehicle is moving.

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

tapered ends facing inward. (

P. 511)

574

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 spare tire and loosely tighten each wheel nut by hand by
approximately the same amount.
Tighten the nuts until the tapered portion comes into loose contact
with the disc wheel seat.
