5. Position the jack at the correct jack
point as shown.
Make sure the jack is positioned on a
level and solid place.6. After making sure that no one is in
the vehicle, raise it high enough so
that the spare tire can be installed.
Remove the wheel nuts and the tire.
Remember you will need more ground
clearance when putting on the spare tire
than when removing the flat tire.
To raise the vehicle, insert the jack handle
end into the jack (it is a loose fit) and
turn it clockwise with the handle, making
sure that the handle remains firmly fitted
onto the jack handle extension. As the
jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift,
double−check that it is properly positioned.
CAUTION
Never get under the vehicle when the
vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.

7. Remove the stop bolts, change tires,
reinstall the stop bolts and tighten
them.
Skip this step to the next unless the inner
rear tire is flat.
Use the small end of the wheel nut
wrench to loosen the stop bolts. Note that
both the stop bolts and the wheel nuts on
the right and left side of the vehicle have
different threads.
Lift the flat tire straight off and put it
aside.
Roll the spare wheel into position and
align the holes in the wheel with the bolts.
Then lift up the wheel and get at least the
top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle
the tire and press it back over the other
bolts.Reinstall the stop bolts and tighten each
bolt a little at a time in the order shown.
Repeat the process until all the bolts are
tight.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten
the bolts. Do not use other tools or any
additional leverage other than your hands,
such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
Make sure the wrench is securely en-
gaged over the bolt.
Before putting on wheels, remove any cor-
rosion on the mounting surfaces with a
wire brush or such.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. Doing so may lead to over-
tightening the nuts and damaging the
bolts. The nuts may loose and the
wheels may fall off, which could cau-
se a serious accident. If there is oil
or grease on any bolt or nut, clean
it.

8. Install the tire and all the wheel nuts
finger tight.
Vehicles with double rear tires—When
installingouter rear wheels, make sure the
stop bolts are securely tightened.
Roll the spare wheel into position and
align the holes in the wheel with the bolts.
Then lift up the wheel and get at least the
top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle
the tire and press it back over the other
bolts.
Reinstall the wheel nuts (tapered end in-
ward) and tighten them as much as you
can by hand. Press back on the tire and
see if you can tighten them more.Before putting on wheels, remove any cor-
rosion on the mounting surfaces with a
wire brush or such. Installation of wheels
without good metal−to−metal contact at the
mounting surface can cause wheel nuts to
loosen, and eventually cause a wheel to
come off while driving.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts
or nuts. Doing so may lead to over-
tightening the nuts and damaging the
bolts. The nuts may loose and the
wheels may fall off, which could cau-
se a serious accident. If there is oil
or grease on any bolt or nut, clean
it.

CAUTION
Be sure to install the wheel nuts with
the tapered end facing inward. Instal-
ling the nuts with the tapered end
facing outward can cause wheel to
break and eventually cause a wheel to
come off while driving, which could
lead to an accident resulting in death
or serious injury.
9. Lower the vehicle completely and
tighten the wheel nuts.
To lower the vehicle, turn the jack handle
extension counterclockwise with the han-
dle, making sure the handle remains firmly
fitted onto the jack handle extension.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the
order shown. Repeat the process until all
the nuts are tight.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten
the nuts. Do not use other tools or any
additional leverage other than your hands,
such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
Make sure the wrench is securely en-
gaged over the nut.

11. Check the air pressure of the re-
placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specification
designated on page 226 in Section 8. If
the pressure is lower, drive slowly to the
nearest service station and fill to the cor-
rect pressure.
Do not forget to reinstall the tire inflation
valve cap as dirt and moisture could get
into the valve core and possibly cause air
leakage. If the cap is missing, have a new
one put on as soon as possible.
12. Restow all the tools, jack and flat
tire securely.
Front and single rear tires—
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the wheel nuts to the torque
specified on page 226 in Section 8 with
a torque wrench. Have a technician repair
the flat tire.
Double rear tires—
As soon after changing wheels as pos-
sible, tighten the stop bolts and wheel
nuts to the torque specified on page 226
in Section 8 with a torque wrench. Have
a technician repair the flat tire.
This is the same procedure for changing
or rotating your tires.
CAUTION
Before driving, make sure all the
tools, jack and flat tire are securely
in place in their storage location to
reduce the possibility of death or se-
rious injury during sudden braking,
sudden swerving or an accident.
If your vehicle becomes stuck in snow,
mud, sand, etc., then you may attempt
to rock the vehicle free by moving it
forward and backward.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to rock the vehicle
free by moving it forward and back-
ward if people or objects are any-
where near the vehicle. During the
rocking operation the vehicle may
suddenly move forward or backward
as it becomes unstuck, causing injury
or damage to nearby people or ob-
jects.
NOTICE
If you rock your vehicle, observe the
following precautions to prevent dam-
age to the transmission and other
parts.
zDo not race the engine and avoid
spinning the wheels.
zIf your vehicle remains stuck after
rocking the vehicle several times,
consider other ways such as tow-
ing.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY171
(a) Towing with wheel lift type truck—
—From front
—From rear
(b) Using flat bed truck
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or qualified
professional, such as a commercial tow
truck service. In consultation with them,
have your vehicle towed using either (a)
or (b).
Only when you cannot receive a towing
service from any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or qualified profes-
sional, such as a commercial tow truck
service, tow your vehicle carefully in
accordance with the instructions given
in “—Emergency towing” on page 172
in this Section.Proper equipment will help ensure that
your vehicle is not damaged while being
towed. Commercial operators are generally
aware of the state/provincial and local
laws pertaining to towing.
Your vehicle can be damaged if it is
towed incorrectly. Although most operators
know the correct procedure, it is possible
to make a mistake. To avoid damage to
your vehicle, make sure the following pre-
cautions are observed. If necessary, show
this page to the tow truck driver.
TOWING PRECAUTIONS:
Use a safety chain system for all towing,
and abide by the state/provincial and local
laws. The wheels and axle on the ground
must be in good condition. If they are
damaged, use a towing dolly.
(a) Towing with wheel lift type truck
From front—We recommend using a tow-
ing dolly under the rear wheels. If you do
not use a towing dolly, release the parking
brake and put the transmission in neutral.
From rear—Place the engine switch in the
“ACC” position.NOTICE
zWhen lifting wheels, take care to
ensure adequate ground clearance
for towing at the opposite end of
the raised vehicle. Otherwise, the
bumper and/or underbody of the
towed vehicle will be damaged dur-
ing towing.
zDo not tow with the key removed or
in the “LOCK” position, as the
steering lock mechanism is not
strong enough to hold the front
wheels straight while towing.
(b) Using flat bed truck

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY173
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or qualified
professional, such as a commercial tow
truck service.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tempo-
rarily towed by a cable or chain se-
cured to one of the following parts:
Front: Front emergency towing hook
Rear: Rear emergency towing eyelet
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle.
NOTICE
Only use specified towing hook or
eyelet; otherwise your vehicle may be
damaged.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard−surfaced roads for a short dis-
tance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, drive train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle. Avoid sudden starts or errat-
ic driving maneuvers which would
place excessive stress on the emer-
gency towing hook or eyelet and tow-
ing cable or chain. The hook or eye-
let and towing cable or chain may
break and cause serious injury or
damage.
NOTICE
Use only a cable or chain specifically
intended for use in towing vehicles.
Securely fasten the cable or chain to
the towing hook or eyelet provided.
Before towing, release the parking brake
and put the transmission in neutral. The
engine switch must be in “ACC” (engine
off) or “ON” (engine running) position.
CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the pow-
er assist for the brakes and steering
will not work so steering and braking
will be much harder than usual.
Dyna100/150_EE

174IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
DBefore emergency towing, check that
the hook or eyelet is not broken or
damaged and that the installation bolts
are not loose.
DFasten the towing cable or chain se-
curely to the hook or eyelet.
DDo not jerk the hook or eyelet. Apply
steady and even force.
DTo avoid damaging the hook or eyelet,
do not pull from the side or at a verti-
cal angle. Always pull straight ahead.You can purchase a new key at any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional, if you can give them the
key number.
See the suggestion given in “Keys” on
page 12 in Section 1−2.
If your key is locked in the vehicle and
you cannot get a duplicate, many autho-
rized Toyota dealers, repairers or other
duly qualified and equipped professionals
can still open the door for you, using their
special tools. If you must break a window
to get in, we suggest breaking the side
window because it is the least expensive
to replace. Be extremely cautious to avoid
cuts from the glass.
