Jacking up the vehicle
E00801001436
1.
Park the vehicle on level and stable ground.
2. Set the parking brake firmly.
3. On vehicles with manual transmission, turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position,
move the gearshift lever to the “R” (Reverse)
position.
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) po-
sition, turn the ignition key to the “LOCK”
position.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and set up a warning triangle, flashing signal lamp,
etc., at an adequate distance from the vehi-
cle, and have all your passengers leave the ve-
hicle.
5. To prevent the vehicle from rolling when it is raised on the jack, place chocks or blocks
(A) at the tyre that is diagonally opposite
from the tyre (B) you are changing. WARNING
l Be
sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
NOTE l The

chocks shown in the illustration do not
come with your vehicle. It is recommended
that you keep one in the vehicle for use if nee-
ded.
l If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold
the wheel in position.
6. Get the spare wheel, jack and jack handle ready.
7. Place the jack under one of the jacking points shown in the illustration. Use the jack-
ing point closest to the tyre you wish to
change. 2WD vehicles with 15 inch wheels C- Front jacking point (2WD vehicles with 15

Spare wheel
E00801100094
The
spare wheel is stored under the floor of the car-
go bed. A- Spare wheel
CAUTION
l
When
removing the spare wheel, put on
gloves. Removing the spare wheel with
your bare hands may cause injury to the
fingers. CAUTION
l
Check
the air pressure of the spare wheel
frequently and make sure it is ready for
emergency use at any time.
Driving with an insufficient tyre pressure
can lead to an accident. If you have no
choice but to drive with an insufficient
tyre pressure, keep your speed down and
inflate the tyre to the correct pressure as
soon as possible. (Refer to “Tyre inflation
pressures” on page 8-12.)
Maintaining the spare wheel at the high-
est specified air pressure will ensure that
it can always be used under any condi-
tions (city/high-speed driving, varying
load weight, etc.).
To remove 1. Set
the jack handle. (Club cab, Double cab
with rear retractable power window only)
(Refer to “To use the jack handle” on page
6-12.)
2. Insert the jack handle (A) in the hole (B) be- low the rear gate. 3. Securely
insert the pin (C) on the jack handle
into the holder (D) of the spare wheel carrier. 4. Insert
the wheel nut wrench (E) through the
end of the jack handle hole (F), and then turn
it anticlockwise to lower the spare wheel com-
pletely to the ground and to slack the chain. For emergencies

5. Remove the hanger disc (G) from the spare
wheel. To install
1. Install
the hanger disc (A) in the wheel disc
hole. 2. Turn
the wheel nut wrench (B) clockwise to
wind up the chain. NOTE
l Confirm

that the hanger disc is securely fit-
ted in the wheel disc hole when the wheel is
just lifted off the ground.
3. After winding up the spare wheel sufficient- ly, make sure it is not loose (the tightening
torque should be approximately 40 Nm) then
withdraw the jack handle, taking care not to
turn it in the reverse direction. CAUTION
l
The
spare wheel should always be secure-
ly in position.
If a flat tyre is changed, put the flat tyre
in the spare wheel mounting position
with the wheel outer surface upward, and
use the wheel nut wrench to secure it firm-
ly. How to change a tyre
E00801202653

move the gearshift lever to the “R” (Reverse)
position.
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
move the selector lever to the “P” (PARK) po-
sition, turn the ignition key to the “LOCK”
position.
4. Turn on the hazard warning flashers and set up a warning triangle, flashing signal lamp,
etc., at an adequate distance from the vehi-
cle, and have all your passengers leave the ve-
hicle.

WARNING
l Be sure to apply chocks or blocks to the
correct tyre when jacking up the vehicle.
If the vehicle moves while jacked up, the
jack could slip out of position, leading to
an accident.
NOTE l The

chocks shown in the illustration do not

ded.
l If chocks are not available, use stones or any
other objects that are large enough to hold
the wheel in position.
6. Get the spare wheel, jack, jack handle and wheel nut wrench ready. NOTE
l Put

the spare wheel under the vehicle body
near the flat tyre. This makes it safer if the
jack slips out of position. 7. Loosen
the wheel nuts with the wheel nut
wrench. Do not remove the wheel nuts yet.
Five wheel nuts
Six wheel nuts 8. Find
the closest jacking point to the flat tyre
(refer to “Jacking up the vehicle” on page
6-13). Then position the jack and raise the ve-
hicle until the tyre is slightly off the ground.
9. Remove the wheel nuts with the wheel nut wrench, then take the wheel off. CAUTION
l
Handle
the wheel carefully when chang-
ing the tyre, to avoid scratching the wheel
surface.
10. Clean
out any mud, etc. on the hub surface (C), hub bolts (D) or in the installation holes
(E) in the wheel, and then mount the spare
wheel. WARNING
l Mount
the spare wheel with the valve
stem (F) facing outboard. If you cannot
see the valve stem (F), you have installed
the wheel backwards.
Operating the vehicle with the spare
wheel installed backwards can cause vehi-
cle damage and result in an accident. For emergencies
