Wrap protective material around
any sharp corners and edges on
the load.
Heavy transported loads: stow
as far forward and as low down as possible, ideally directly
behind the boot partition.
Small and lightweight trans-
ported loads: can be secured
with retaining straps, a luggage
net or other suitable straps.
Large and heavy transported
loads: secure with lashing straps.
Equipment for securing the trans-
ported load, for example lashing
straps, tensioning straps or luggage
nets, must be secured to the lash-
ing eyes in the boot.
Four lashing eyes are located in the
boot for securing the loads.
There is a bag holder on the left
and right side in the boot.
WARNING
If the permitted total weight and the
permitted axle loads are exceeded,
the operational safety of the vehicle is
no longer guaranteed. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. Do not exceed the
permitted total weight and permitted
axle loads.
WARNING
Loose objects or devices connected
by a cable to the vehicle, for example
mobile telephones, may be flung
around the interior during the journey,
for example in an accident or during
braking and evasive manoeuvres.
There is a danger of injury. Ensure
that loose objects or devices con-
nected by cable to the vehicle are
secured in place in the interior.
WARNING
Incorrectly stowed objects may slip or
be flung into the interior, for example
in an accident, during braking or eva-
sive manoeuvres. Vehicle occupants
could be struck and injured. There is
a danger of injury. Stow and secure
objects and the load correctly.
NOTICE
Liquids in the boot may cause dam-
age. There is a danger of damage to
property. Ensure that no liquids leak

Supra Owner's Manual4-1. DRIVING HINTS
This situation, known as aquaplan-
ing, means that the tyre can actu-
ally lose contact completely with
the road surface and the vehicle
can neither be steered, nor the
brakes properly applied.
Please comply with the following
when driving through water:
Only drive through still water.
Only drive through water up to a
max. depth of 25 cm, 9.8 in.
Drive through water at a walking
speed of no more than 5 km/h, 3
mph.
The vehicle is equipped with the
Anti-lock Brake System ABS as
standard.
Perform full braking in situations that require it.
The vehicle remains steerable. Any
obstacles can be avoided by per-
forming steering movements as
smoothly as possible.
A pulsing of the brake pedal and
hydraulic regulating sounds indi-
cate that the Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem ABS is regulating.
In certain braking situations, the
perforated brake discs can cause
functional noise. However, func-
tional noises have no effect on the
efficiency and operational safety of
the brakes.
In damp weather, on gritted roads
and in heavy rain, apply the brakes
lightly every few kilometres/miles. Driving through water
General
Safety note
NOTICE
Driving through excessively deep
water too fast can result in water
entering the engine compartment,
electrical system or transmission.
There is a danger of damage to prop-
erty. When driving through water, do
not exceed the maximum water depth
and speed specified above.
Safe braking

Objects in the range of movement
of the pedals
WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell can
restrict the pedal travel or block a
pedal that has been pressed. There is
a danger of accidents. Stow items in
the vehicle so that they are secure
and cannot get into the driver's
footwell. Only use floor mats that are
suitable for the vehicle and can be
securely fastened to the floor. Do not
use loose floor mats, and do not place
several floor mats on top of one
another. Make sure that there is suffi-
cient space for the pedals. Ensure
that floor mats are securely reat-
tached after having been removed, for
example for cleaning.

finger-tight.
If non-original light alloy wheels not
from the vehicle manufacturer are fit-
ted, the wheel studs belonging to the
wheels may also have to be used.
4Tighten the remaining wheels
tuds until finger-tight and then
tighten all the wheel studs
crosswise.
5Turn the jack crank anticlock-
wise to retract the jack and
lower the vehicle.
6Remove the jack and stow it
securely.
1Tighten the wheel studs cross-
wise. The tightening torque
is140 Nm, approximately 101 lb
ft.
2Stow the faulty wheel in the
boot, if necessary.
Due to its size, the faulty wheel cannot
be accommodated under the boot floor.
3Check tyre inflation pressure at
the next opportunity and correct
as necessary.
4Reset the Tyre Pressure Monitor
(TPM).
5Check the tight fit of the wheel
studs using a calibrated torque
wrench.
6Drive to the nearest any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any relia-ble repairer to have the dam-
aged tyre replaced.
In case of a flat tyre, the emergency
wheel can be used as a replace-
ment for the defective tyre. The
emergency wheel is intended for
short-term use until the defective
wheel has been replaced.
Only fit one emergency wheel at
most.
Additionally, regularly check the
tyre inflation pressure of the emer-
gency wheel in the boot and correct
the pressure if necessary. After changing the wheel

Safety note
WARNING
The emergency wheel has special
dimensions. When driving with an
emergency wheel, the driving proper-
ties may change, for example
reduced directional stability when
braking, longer braking distance and
modified self-steering behaviour in
the limit range. There is a danger of
accidents. Drive with care and do not
exceed a speed of 80 km/h, 50 mph.
