●Instances of the Blind Spot Monitor unnecessarily detecting a vehicle
and/or object may increase in the fol- lowing situations:• When the sensor is misaligned due to
a strong impact to the sensor or its surrounding area• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a guardrail, wall, etc., that enters the detection area is short• When driving up and down consecu-
tive steep inclines, such as hills, dips in the road, etc.• When vehicle lanes are narrow, or
when driving on the edge of a lane, and a vehicle traveling in a lane other than the adjacent lanes enters the
detection area • When driving on roads with sharp bends, consecutive curves, or uneven
surfaces • When the tires are slipping or spinning• When the distance between your vehi-
cle and a following vehicle is short • When an accessory (such as a bicycle carrier) is installed to the rear of the
vehicle
*: If equipped
■Types of sensors
Front corner sensors
Front center sensors
Rear corner sensors
Rear center sensors
■Display
When the sensors detect an object,
such as a wall, a graphic is shown
on the multi-information display
depending on the position and dis-
Toyota parking assist-
sensor*
The distance from your vehicle
to objects, such as a wall,
when parallel parking or
maneuvering into a garage is
measured by the sensors and
communicated via the multi-
information display and a
buzzer. Always check the sur-
rounding area when using this
system.

Regulations regarding the use of
tire chains vary depending on loca-
tion and type of road. Always check
local regulations before installing
chains.
■Tire chain installation
Observe the following precautions when
installing and removing chains:
●Install and remove tire chains in a safe
location.
●Install tire chains on the front tires
only. Do not install tire chains on the rear tires.
●Install tire chains on the front tires as tightly as possible. Retighten chains after driving 0.5 ⎯1.0 km (1/4⎯1/2
mile).
●Install tire chains following the instruc-
tions provided with the tire chains.
Regulations on the use of
tire chains
NOTICE
■Fitting tire chains
The tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters may not function cor- rectly when tire chains are fitted.

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Front
To equalize tire wear and help extend
tire life, Toyota recommends that tire
rotation is carried out approximately
every 10000 km (6000 miles).
When rotating front and rear tires which
have different tire inflation pressures,
do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system after tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure warning system that uses
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters to detect low tire infla-
tion pressure before serious prob-
lems arise.
The tire pressure warning system
of this vehicle adopts a 2-type
warning system.
zWhen “Adjust Pressure” is dis-
played (Normal Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn-
ing light and warning buzzer when
there is an unknown level of low tire
pressure with the appearance of the tire
due to natural air leakage as well as the
pressure lowering due to changes in
the pressure according to the outside
temperature. (Ways of coping: →P.375,
417)
zWhen “Immediately Check tire
when Safe” is displayed (Emer-
gency Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn-
ing light and warning buzzer when
there is a known level of low tire pres-sure with the appearance of the tire due
to pressure suddenly lowering. (Ways
of coping: →P.379, 389)
However, the system may not be able
to detect sudden tire ruptures (bursting,
etc.).
The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can
be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display.
The unit can be changed.
■How to change the unit
1Park the vehicle in a safe place
and turn the engine switch off.
Changing the unit cannot be performed
while the vehicle is moving.
2Turn the engine switch to ON.
3Press / (vertical display)
or / (horizontal display)
of the meter control switch to
select .

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
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:
z Wheels of different sizes or types
z Used wheels
z 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, the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must be
installed. ( →P.333)
WARNING
●Uneven wear
●Poor handling
●Possibility of blowouts resulting
from overheated tires
●Air leaking from between tire and
wheel
●Wheel deformation and/or tire dam-
age
●Greater possibility of tire damage
while driving (due to road hazards, expansion joints, sharp edges on the road, etc.)
NOTICE
■When inspecting and adjusting tire inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back
on. If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or moisture may get into the valve and
cause an air leak, resulting in decreased tire inflation pressure.
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.

screwdriver of an appropriate size.
Insert a new battery with the “+” termi-
nal facing up.
4Install the battery cover with the
tab facing up.
Push the entire edge of the battery
cover into the key.

7-2. Steps to take in an emergency
The following may indicate a prob-
lem with your transmission. Contact
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer or commercial tow-
ing service before towing.
z The engine is running but the
vehicle does not move.
z The vehicle makes an abnormal
sound.
From the front
Release the parking brake.
From the rear
Use a towing dolly under the front
wheels.
Do not tow with a sling-type truck to
prevent body damage.
When using a flat-bed truck to
transport the vehicle, use tire strap-
ping belts. Refer to the owner’s
manual of the flat-bed truck for the
tire strapping method.
In order to suppress vehicle move-
ment during transportation, set the
parking brake and turn the engine
switch off.
NOTICE
■When towing a vehicle equipped with the Stop & Start system (if
equipped)
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with all four wheels on the ground,
perform the following procedure before towing the vehicle in order to protect the system. Turn the engine
switch off and then start the engine or turn the engine switch to ON.
Situations when it is neces-
sary to contact dealers
before towing

■Note for checking the emergency tire puncture repair kit
Check the sealant expiry date occasion-
ally.
The expiry date is shown on the bottle. Do not use sealant whose expiry date has already passed. Otherwise, repairs
conducted using the emergency tire puncture repair kit may not be per-formed properly.
■Emergency tire puncture repair kit
●The emergency tire puncture repair kit is for filling the car tire with air.
●The sealant has a limited life span. The expiry date is marked on the bot-
tle. The sealant should be replaced before the expiry date. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for replacement.
●The sealant stored in the emergency tire puncture repair kit can be used only once to temporarily repair a sin-
gle tire. If the sealant has been used and needs to be replaced, purchase a new bottle at any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. The compres-sor is reusable.
●The sealant can be used when the outside temperature is from -30°C (-
22°F) to 60°C (140°F).
●The kit is exclusively designed for size
and type of tires originally installed on your vehicle. Do not use it for tires that a different size than the original ones,
or for any other purposes.
●If the sealant gets on your clothes, it
may stain.
●If the sealant adheres to a wheel or
the surface of the vehicle body, the stain may not be removable if it is not cleaned at once. Immediately wipe
away the sealant with a wet cloth.
●During operation of the repair kit, a
loud operation noise is produced. This does not indicate a malfunction.
●Do not use to check or to adjust the tire pressure.
