CAUTION
■Using the jack handle
Tighten all the jack handle bolts securely using a Phillips-head screw-
driver, to prevent the extension parts from coming apart unexpectedly.
■Replacing a flat tire
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of death or serious
injury.
●Lower the spare tire completely to the ground before removing it from
under the vehicle.
●Do not try to remove the wheel ornament by hand. Take due care in
handling the ornament to avoid unexpected personal injury.
●Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tightened,
leading to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or grease can
cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing a
serious accident. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or
wheel nuts.
●Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 83 ft•lbf (110
N•m, 11.5 kgf•m) as soon as
possible after changing wheels.
●Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the vehicle is moving.
●When installing a tire, only use whee l nuts that have been specifically
designed for that wheel.
●If there are any cracks or deformatio ns in the bolt screws, nut threads
or bolt holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to loosen
and the tire to fall off, result ing in death or serious injury.
