●When using a wheel set which all of
the ID codes have already been regis- tered, the wheel set can be changed in a short amount of time.
■If ID codes are not registered prop-
erly
●In the following situations, ID code
registration may take longer than usual to be completed or may not be possible.
• When the vehicle has not been parked for approximately 15 minutes or more before being driven
• Vehicle is not driven at approximately 40 km/h (25 mph) or more• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehicles and system cannot recognize tire pressure warning valves and transmit-
ters of your vehicle over those of other vehicles• Wheel with tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter installed is inside or near the vehicle
●If the vehicle is reversed during regis-tration, all data collected until then will be cleared. Perform driving again.
●If registration does not complete after driving for 1 hour or more, perform the
ID code registration procedure again from the beginning.
●If the tire pressure warning light does not blink 3 times when starting ID code registration procedure, the pro-
cedure may not have started. Perform the procedure again from the begin-ning.

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 bolts to loosen and the tire to fall off, result-ing in death or serious injury.
• Never apply oil or grease to the
wheel bolts or their contact surface
on the wheel .
Doing so may cause the wheel
bolts to be tightened excessively,
leading to damage to the wheel
bolts, the threaded portion 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 acci-
dent.
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 vehi- cle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■When tightening the wheel bolts
Do not tighten the wheel bolts exces- sively.Doing so may cause the wheel bolts,
the threads of the wheel hub, or the wheel to be damaged.
■Replacing a flat tire for vehicles with power back door
In cases such as when replacing tires,
make sure to cancel the power back door system ( P.202). Failure to do so may cause the back door to oper-
ate unintentionally if the power back door switch is accidentally touched, resulting in hands and fingers being
caught and injured.

Maintenance and care
When replacing wheels, care
should be taken to ensure that they
are equivalent to those removed in
load capacity, diameter, rim width
and inset*.
Replacement wheels are available
at any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer.
*: Conventionally referred to as offset.
Toyota does not recommend using
the following:
 Wheels of different sizes or types
 Used wheels
 Bent wheels that have been
straightened
■When replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide advance warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must be installed.
( P.479)
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should be
replaced. Otherwise, the tire
may separate from the wheel
or cause a loss of handling
control.
