other body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns.
● Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the vehicle is moving.
● Failure to follow these precautions could cause the wheel nuts to loosen
and the tire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 120 N
•m (12.2

rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install them with the tapered ends facing inward. ( →P. 355)
