Keys
Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds
of keys.1. Master key (black)—This key works in every lock. Your Toyota dealer will
need it to make you a new key with
builtin transponder chip.
2. Sub key (gray)—This key does not work in the glove box. A transponder chip for engine immobiliser
system has been filled in the head of the
master and sub keys. These chips are
needed to enable the system to function
correctly, so be careful not to lose these
keys. If you make your own duplicate key,
you will not be able to cancel the system
or start the engine.
To protect things locked in the glove box
when you have your vehicle parked, leave
the sub key with the attendant.
Since the side doors can be locked with-
out a key, you should always carry a
spare master key in case you accidentally
lock your keys inside the vehicle.
For information on use of the wireless
remote control key, see ”Side doors” in
this section.NOTICE
When using a key containing a trans-
ponder chip, observe the following
precautions:

When starting the engine, do not
use the key with a key ring resting
on the key grip and do not press
the key ring against the key grip.
Otherwise the engine may not start,
or may stop soon after it starts.

NOTICE
Do not load the vehicle beyond the
vehicle capacity weight given in Sec-
tion 8.
Rear step bumper
The rear step bumper is for rear end
protection and easier stepup loading.
To get on the rear step bumper, use the
shaded area between the arrows in the
illustration.
CAUTION
Do not allow more than one person
to get on the rear step bumper at
a time. It is designed for only one
person.
Never drive the vehicle with anyone
on the rear step bumper.
Limitedslip differential
Some Toyotas are equipped with a lim-
itedslip differential. If one of the rear
wheels begins to spin, the limitedslip dif-
ferential is designed to aid traction by
automatically transmitting driving force to
the other rear wheel. If you are not sure
whether your vehicle is equipped with one,
you can ask your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Do not start or run the engine while
your vehicle is supported by a jack.
The vehicle could be driven off the
jack and could pose a danger or re-
sult in serious injury.
NOTICE
Use only a spare tire of the same
size, construction and load capacity
as the original tires on your Toyota
because damage to the limitedslip
differential could possibly occur with
another tire type.

gage compartment:1. Put a jack handle, jack handle exten- sions and jack handle end together as
shown in the illustration.

CAUTION
Make sure they are each securely
fixed with screws.
When connecting a jack handle extension
with a jack handle end, use a Ph illips
head screwdriver or jack handle to tighten
the bolts on the joints as shown in the
illustration. When c onnecting the jack han-
dle with extension, tighten the wing bolt
on the joint securely. Make sure the hol-
low meets the bolt on every joint when
you tighten the bolts.
NOTICE
Tighten all the joints securely. Other-
wise, the extension may come off and
it may damage the paint or vehicle
body.

and turn it counterclockwise with push-
ing it to the front lightly.4. After the tire is lowered completely tothe ground, remove the holding bracket
as shown in the illustration.When storing the spare tire, put it in place
with the outer side of the wheel facing up
and hook the holding bracket as shown in

When connecting a jack handle extension
with another extension and a jack handle
end, use a Phillipshead screwdriver or
jack handle to tighten the bolts on the
joints as shown in the illustration. When
connecting the jack handle with extension,
tighten the wing bolt on the jack handle
securely. Make sure the hollow meets the
bolt on any joint when you tighten the
bolts.

wise, the extension may come off and
it may damage the paint or vehicle
body.
—Raising your vehicle
6. After making sure no one is in the vehicle, raise it high enough so that
the spare tire can be installed.
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 joint of the jack (it is a loose
fit) and turn it clockwise with the handle,
making sure the handle remains firmly
fitted onto the jack handle end. As the
jack touches the vehicle and begins to lift,
doublecheck that it is properly positioned.
CAUTION
Never get under the vehicle when the
vehicle is supported by the jack
alone.

—Changing wheels
7. Remove the wheel nuts and changetires.
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.Before putting on wheels, remove any cor-
rosion on the mounting surfaces with a
wire brush or such. Installation of wheels
without good metaltometal contact at the
mounting surface can cause wheel nuts to
loosen and eventually cause a wheel to
come off while driving. Therefore after the
first 1600 km (1000 miles), check to see
that the wheel nuts are tight.
—Reinstalling wheel nuts
8. Reinstall all the wheel nuts finger tight.
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.
