Maintenance and care
Tires
Replace or rotate tires in accordance with maintenance sched
ules and treadwear.
nChecking tires
New tread
Treadwear indicator
Worn tread
The location of treadwear
indicators is shown by the
“TWI” or “
” marks, etc.,
molded on the sidewall of
each tire.
Check spare tire condition
and inflation pressure if not
rotated.
nTire rotation
Rotate the tires in the order
shown.
To equalize tire wear and
extend tire life, Toyota recom−
mends that tire rotation is
carried out at the same inter−
val as tire inspection.
Do not fail to initialize the tire
pressure warning system
after tire rotation.
nThe tire pressure warning system
Your Toyota is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that
uses tire pressure warning valves and transmitters to detect low
tire inflation pressure before
serious problems arise. (
