have the legally prescribed mini-
mum height of 1.6 mm, approxi-
mately 0.06 in.
The positions of the wear displays
are identified on the tyre's side wall
by TWI, Tread Wear Indicator.
Inspect tyres regularly for damage,
the presence of foreign bodies and
wear.
Vehicle behaviour that may indicate
tyre damage or other faults:
• Unusual vibrations.
• Unusual tyre or running noises.
• Unusual vehicle response, such
as pronounced pulling to the left
or right.
Damage can be caused by the fol-
lowing situations, for example:
• Driving over kerbs.
• Road damage.
• Tyre inflation pressure insuffi-
cient.
• Vehicle overloading.
• Incorrect tyre storage.
Irrespective of the tyre tread depth,
change tyres after 6 years at the
latest.
The date of manufacture of the tyre
is indicated on the tyre sidewall.

General
Safety notes
WARNING
If the tyres are damaged, the tyre
inflation pressure may be reduced,
which in turn could cause you to lose
control of the vehicle. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. If you suspect tyre
damage while you are driving, imme-
diately reduce speed and bring the
vehicle to a stop. Have the wheels
and tyres checked. To do so, carefully
drive to any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer. If necessary, have
the vehicle towed or transported
there. Do not repair damaged tyres,
but have them replaced instead.
WARNING
Tyres can become damaged by run-
ning over obstacles, for example
kerbs or road damage, at high speed.
Larger wheels have a smaller tyre
cross-section. The smaller the tyre
cross-section, the higher the risk of
tyre damage. There is a danger of
accidents and damage to property. If
possible, drive around obstacles or
drive over them slowly and carefully.

should be on the same side.
If it is impossible to avoid attaching
the tow bar at an angle, note the
following:
Tow bar clearance may be lim-
ited when cornering.
The tow bar will generate lateral
forces if it is attached at an
angle.
