◆Trailer Sway Control (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control trailer sway by selectively applying brake pres- 
sure for individual wheels and reducing  driving torque when trailer sway is 
detected. 
Trailer Sway Control is part of the VSC system and will not operate if VSC 
is turned off or experiences a malfunction.
The slip indicator will flash while 
the TRC/A-TRC/VSC/Trailer 
Sway Control systems are operat- 
ing.

WARNING
■Replacing a flat tire 
● Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may result in 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.  
• Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes immediately
after the vehicle has been driven. 
After the vehicle has been driven the disc wheels and the area around 
the brakes will be extremely hot. Touching these areas with hands, feet
or other body parts while changing a tire, etc. may result in burns. 
● 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 105 N•m 
(10.7 kgf•m, 77 ft•lbf) 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 wheel nuts that have been specifically 
designed for that wheel. 
• If there are any cracks or deformations in the bolt screws, nut threads or
bolt holes of the wheel, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized 
Toyota retailer or Toyota authoriz ed repairer, or any reliable repairer. 
• When installing the wheel nuts, be sure to install them with the tapered
ends facing inward. ( P. 564)

Lower the vehicle. 
Firmly tighten each wheel nut 
two or three times in the order 
shown in the illustration. 
Tightening torque:  
105 N•m (10.7 kgf•m, 77 ft•lbf) 
Vehicles with spare tire of the same wheel type as the installed 
tires: Reinstall the wheel ornament.
Type A 
Align the cutout of the wheel 
ornament with the valve stem 
as shown.

6308-2. Steps to take in an emergency
HILUX_OM_OM0K375E_(EE)
Raise the tire.
While raising, secure the tire, tak- 
ing care that the tire goes straight
up without catching on any sur- 
rounding part, to prevent it from fly- 
ing forward during a collision or
sudden braking. 
After the tire goes half way up, 
check that the suspended chain is
able to enter the tire hole, for
proper storage.
Tightening torque:  
37.0 N•m (3.8 kgf•m, 27.3 ft•lbf) 
Confirm that the tire is not loose 
after tightening: 
Push and pull the tire 
Try rotating
Visually check to ensure the tire is 
not hung on surrounding parts. 
If looseness or misassembly exists, repeat step   and step  .
Repeat step  , any time the tire is lowered or disturbed. 
Push in the projection on the 
jack handle and disassemble 
the jack handle end, jack han- 
dle extensions and wheel nut 
wrench. 
Stow the tools and jack securely.
