WARNING
■Replacing a flat tire
●Do not touch the disc wheels or
the area around the brakes
immediately 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 precau-
tions could cause the wheel
bolts to loosen and the tire to fall
off, resulting in death or serious
injury.
• Never apply oil or grease to the wheel bolts or their contact sur-
face on the wheel .
Doing so may cause the wheel
bolts to be tightened exces-
sively, leading to damage to the
wheel bolts, the threaded por-
tion the wheel bolts install to ,
or the wheel.
Also, the wheel bolts may come
loose, possibly leading to the
wheel coming off, causing a
serious accident.
If oil or grease is attached to
either of these parts, remove it.
●When installing a wheel, use the
same wheel bolts that were
removed with the wheel. Also,
do not use any wheel bolts
other than Toyota Genuine
wheel bolts.
• If a wheel bolt hole in a wheel or the threads of a wheel bolt or
the wheel hub are deformed,
cracked, rusty or otherwise
damaged, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
■When tightening the wheel
bolts
Do not tighten the wheel bolts
excessively.
Doing so may cause the wheel
bolts, the threads of the wheel
hub, or the wheel to be damaged.
■Replacing a flat tire for vehi-
cles with power back door
In cases such as when replacing
tires, make sure to cancel the
power back door system
( P.185). Failure to do so may
cause the back d oor to operate
unintentionally if the power back
door switch is accidentally
touched, resulti ng in hands and
fingers being caught and injured.
