How to change a tyre
Before changing a tyre, first stop your vehi- cle in a safe, flat location. 1. Park the vehicle on level and stable
ground, free of loose pebbles, etc.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. On vehicles with manual transmission,
turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”
position or put the operation mode in
OFF, and move the gearshift lever to the
“R” (Reverse) position.
On vehicles with automatic transmis- sion, move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) position, and turn the ignition
switch to the “LOCK” position or put the operation mode in OFF.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and
set up a warning triangle, flashing signal
lamp, etc., at an adequate distance from
the vehicle, and have all your passengers
leave the vehicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when
jacking up the vehicle, place chocks or blocks (A) at the tyre that is diagonallyopposite from the tyre (B) you are
changing.:ARN,NGz Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.NOTEz The chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if needed.
z If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold the wheel in position.
6. Get the jack, jack handle and wheel nut
wrench ready.
Refer to “Tools, jack and jack handle” on page 8-11.
Spare wheel information
The spare wheel is stored under the floor of
the cargo bed.
Check the air pressure of the spare tyre fre-
quently and make sure it is ready for emer-
gency use at any time.

Maintaining the spare wheel at the highest specified air pressure will ensure that it canalways be used under any conditions (city/
high-speed driving, varying load weight,
etc.).
CAUT,ONz The pressure should be periodically checked
and maintained at the specified pressure
while the tyre is stowed.
Driving with an insufficient tyre pressure can lead to an accident. If you have no
choice but to drive with an insufficient tyre pressure, keep your speed down and inflate
the tyre to the correct pressure as soon as possible. (Refer to “Tyre inflation pressures”
on page 10-11.)To remove the spare wheel
1. Set the jack handle. (Club cab)
(Refer to “To use the jack handle (Club
cab)” on page 8-16.)

To change a tyre
1.Loosen the wheel nuts a quarter turn
with the wheel nut wrench. Do not re-
move the wheel nuts yet.
2. Place the jack under one of the jacking
points shown in the illustration. Use the jacking point closest to the tyre you wish
to change.
A- Front jacking point
B- Rear jacking point
:ARN,NGz Set the jack only at the positions shown
here. If the jack is set at a wrong position, it could dent your vehicle or the jack
might fall over and cause personal injury.
z Do not use the jack on a tilted or soft sur-
face. Otherwise, the jack might slip and cause personal injury. Always use the jack
on a flat, hard surface. Before setting the jack, make sure there are no sand or peb-bles under the jack base.NOTEz When jacking up the rear of the vehicle, turn
the tip of the jack so that the grooved portion
(C) properly meets the designated point.
3. Using the jack handle, turn the release
valve (D) clockwise until it stops.

the jack and hook the notch (E) on the
jack handle end to the claw (F) of the
bracket.
5. Move the jack handle up and down to
raise the ram until just before the jack

Ensure that the jack will properly con- tact the vehicle jacking point.
Move the jack handle up and down to raise the vehicle.NOTEz This jack is a 2 stage expansion type.:ARN,NGzStop jacking up the vehicle as soon as the
tyre is raised off the ground. It is danger-ous to raise the vehicle any higher.:ARN,NGz Do not get under your vehicle while using
the jack.
z Do not bump the raised vehicle or leave it
sitting on the jack for a long time. Both
are very dangerous.
z Do not use a jack except the one that
came with your vehicle.
z The jack should not be used for any pur-
pose other than to change a tyre.
z No one should be in your vehicle when us-
ing the jack.
z Do not start or run the engine while your
