5. After completing the tire inflationpressure measurement and ad-
justment, apply soapy water to the
valve and check for leakage.
6. Install the tire valve cap.
If a gauge and air pump are not avail-
able, have your vehicle checked by
your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Be sure to reinstall the tire valve
caps. Without the valve caps, dirt
or moisture could get into the
valve core and cause air leakage.
If the caps have been lost, have
new ones put on as soon as pos-
sible.
Incorrect tire infl ation pressure may
waste fuel, reduce the comfort of driv-
ing, reduce tire life and make your ve-
hicle less safe to drive.
If a tire frequently needs refilling,
have it checked by your Toyota deal-
er.
CAUTION
Keep your tires properly inflated.
Otherwise, the following condi-
tions may occur and cause an ac-
cident resulting in death or seri-
ous injuries.
Low tire pressure ( underinfla-
tion)—
Excessive wear
Uneven wear
Poor handling
Possibility of blowouts from an
overheated tire
Poor sealing of the tire bead
Wheel deformation and/or tire
separation
A greater possibility of tire
damage from road hazards
High tire pressure (overinfla-
tion)—
Poor handling
Excessive wear
Uneven wear
A greater possibility of tire
damage from road hazards

Using any other size or type of tire
may seriously affect handling, ride,
speedometer/odometer calibration,
ground clearance, and clearance be-
tween the body and tires or snow
chains.
Check that the maximum load of the
replaced tire is greater than 1/2 of the
Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR)
of either the front axle or the rear
axle, whichever is greater. As for the
maximum load of the tire, see the load
limit at maximum cold tire inflation
pressure mentioned on the sidewall
of the tire, and as for the Gross Axle
Weight Ratings (GAWR), see the Cer-
tification Label.
For details about the side wall of the
tire and the Certification Label, see
pages 398 and 401.
CAUTION
Observe the following instruc-
tions. Otherwise, an accident
may occur resulting in death or
serious injuries.
Do not mix radial, bias belted,
or bias ply tires on your ve-
hicle, as this may cause dan-
gerous handling characteris-
tics resulting in loss of control.
Do not use tires other than the
manufacturer’s recommended
size, as this may cause danger-
ous handling characteristics
resulting in loss of control.
All wheel drive models:
Do not use tires of different
brands, sizes, construction or
tread patterns, as this may
cause dangerous handling
characteristics resulting in
loss of control.Toyota recommends all four tires,
or at least both of the front or rear
tires be replaced at a time as a set.
See “If you have a flat tire” on page
437 in Section 4 for tire change proce-
dure.
When a tire is replaced, the wheel
should always be balanced.
An unbalanced wheel may affect ve-
hicle handling and tire life. Wheels
can get out of balance with regular
use and should therefore be balanced
occasionally.
When replacing a tubeless tire, the
air valve should also be repl aced
w i t h a new on e.
Initial adjustment of the tire pres-
sure warning system is necessary
after you have rotated your tires.
See “Tire pressure warning sys-
tem” on page 214 in Section 1 7.

When the tire goes flat or when the
tire pressure is below 100 kPa (1.0
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 15 psi), the tire
must be replaced. If you are not
sure, consult your Toyota dealer.
Do not use the repaired tire.
There is an “RFT” or “DSST” mark on
the sidewall of the run −flat tire.
If you cannot distinguish between the
standard tire and run −flat tire, consult
your Toyota dealer.
The tire warranty book provides de-
tailed information on the run −flat tires.
For details, see the tire warranty
book.
CAUTION
Do not use non genuine
wheels, as this may cause dan-
gerous handling characteris-
tics resulting in loss of control.
Do not use the run flat tires
equipped on your vehicle on
another model. These tires are
especially for this model.
Do not mix run flat tires with
standard tires.
If the tire pressure warning light
co mes on :
Decelerate at a speed below 90
km/h (55 mph), then adjust the tire
pressure to the specified level as
soon as possible. Do not drive
more than 160 km (100 miles).
When the tire pressure is below
140 kPa (1.4 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 20
psi), consult your Toyota deal-
er. If the tire is flat or the tire
pressure is below 100 kPa (1.0
kgf/cm
2 or bar, 15 psi), the tire
must be replaced. Do not use
the repaired tire.
When the tire pressure is 140
kPa (1.4 kgf/cm
2 or bar, 20 psi)
or more, adjust it to specified
level. (See “Tires” on page 517
in Section 8.) S ee “ Ti r e p r es s ur e
warning system”
on page 214 in Section 1 −7 and
“Checking tire infl at ion pr es s ur e” on
page 487 in this Section.
CAUTION
As the run flat tire allows you to
continue driving if any tire goes
flat, the tire performance is not
the same as normal condition. If
the run flat tire goes flat, take
your vehicle to the nearest Toyo-
ta dealer or authorized tire dealer
as soon as possible, observing
the following instructions:
Decelerate as soon as possible
to the lowest appropriate
speed that conditions permit.
Do not drive for longer than
160 km (100 miles) or over 90
km/h (55 mph).

Avoid abrupt steering wheel
maneuvering and braking. If
t h e veh i cl e ti res det eri o rat e,
you could lose control of the
steering wheel or the brakes,
causing death or serious inju-
ry.
Do not replace or repair the tire
by yourself. When the tires
must be replaced or repaired,
consult your Toyota dealer or
authorized tire dealer.NOTICE
Take due care not to go over
a curb stone and be careful
of the holes in the road be-
cause deflated tire pressure
affects tire cushion perfor-
mance. The wheels, tires,
body, suspension and other
components could be dam-
aged.
Your ground clearance is re-
duced if the run flat tire
goes flat so avoid driving
over obstacles and drive
slowly on rough, unp aved
roads and speed bumps.
Also, do not attempt to go
through an automatic car
wash as the vehicle may get
caught, resulting in damage.
WHEN TO USE SNOW TIRES OR
CHAINS
Snow tires or chains are recommended
when driving on snow or ice.
On wet or dry roads, conventional tires
provide better traction than snow tires.
SNOW TIRE SELECTION
If you need snow tires, select tires of
the same size, construction and load
capacity as the originally installed tires.
Also, on all wheel drive models, all the
tires must be the same brand and have
the same tread patterns.
Do not use tires other than those men-
tioned above. Do not install studded tires
without first checking local regulations for
possible restrictions.

Initial adjustment of the tire pressure
warning system is necessary after you
have replaced your wheels. See “Tire
pressure warning system” on page 214
in Section 1 7.When installing aluminum wheels,
check that the wheel nuts are tight
after driving your vehicle the first 1600
km (1000 miles).
If you have rotated, repaired, or
changed your tires, check that the
wheel nuts are still tight after driving
1600 km (1000 miles).
When using tire chains, be careful not
to damage the aluminum wheels.
Use only Toyota wheel nuts and
wrench designed for your aluminum
wheels.
When balancing your wheels, use only
Toyota balance weights or equivalent
and a plastic or rubber hammer.
As with any wheel, periodically check
your aluminum wheels for damage. If
damaged, replace immediately.
