a. Using the illustration as a guide, run
your fingers across the trim of the filler
panel itself to locate the position of the
holes underneath.
b. Make a hole in the covering directly
above the hole in the filler panel.
c. Insert a 15 mm (0.6 in.) spacer and
tighten down the anchor bracket for your
child restraint system with a bolt. Torque
the bolt to 16.5—24.7 N ⋅m (1.68—2.52
kgf ⋅m, 12.2—18.2 ft ⋅lbf). To comply with Canada Motor Vehicle
Safety Standards, vehicles sold in Canada
are provided with a bracket set in the
glovebox, designed for use with any of the
3 anchor locations shown in the illustra-
tion.
If your child restraint system does not
provide any of the necessary parts, ask
your Toyota dealer. (See ”—Child restraint
system”.)

10. Reinstall the wheel ornament.
1. Put the wheel ornament into position.
On some models, align the cutout of the
wheel ornament with the valve stem as
shown. 2. Then tap it firmly with the side or heel of your hand to snap it into place.
CAUTION
Take due care in handling the orna-
ment to avoid unexpected personal
injury.
—After changing wheels
11. Check the air pressure of the re- placed tire.
Adjust the air pressure to the specification
designated in Part 8. If the pressure is
lower, drive slowly to the nearest service
station and fill to the correct 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.
As soon as possible after changing
wheels, tighten the wheel nuts to the
torque specified in Part 8 with a torque
wrench, have a technician repair the flat
tire and replace the spare tire with it.
