This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
The tire characteristics and tire
inflation pressure influence the
following:
• The service life of the tires.
• Road safety.
• Driving comfort.
• Fuel consumption.The tire inflation pressure table,
refer to page 266, contains all
tire inflation pressure specifica-
tions for the specified tire sizes
at the ambient temperature. The
tire inflation pressure values
apply to tire sizes approved by
the manufacturer of the vehicle
for the vehicle type.
To identify the correct tire infla-
tion pressure, please note the
following:
If the tire's speed code cannot
be found, then the tire inflation
pressure for the corresponding
tire size applies.
• Tire sizes of your vehicle.
• Maximum permitted driving
speed.

Safety information
WARNING
A tire with too little or no tire infla-
tion pressure may heat up signifi-
cantly and sustain damage. This
will have a negative impact on
aspects of handling, such as
steering and braking response.
There is a risk of an accident.
Regularly check the tire inflation
pressure, and correct it as
needed, for instance twice a
month and before a long trip.

The current tire inflation pres-
sure values and the intended
tire inflation pressure values for
the mounted tires can be dis-
played on the Control Display.
To ensure that they are dis-
played correctly, the tire sizes
must be stored in the system
and must have been set, refer to
page 280, for the mounted tires.
The current tire inflation pres-
sure value is located on each
tire.
The reference tire inflation pres-
sure value is located in the
lower area of the Control Dis-
play.
Tires heat up while driving. The
tire inflation pressure increases
with the tire temperature.
Tires have a natural, consistent
loss of tire inflation pressure.
The displays of inflation devices
may under-read by up to 0.1
bar/2 psi.The tire inflation pressure speci-
fications in the tire inflation pres-
sure table only relate to cold
tires or tires at the same tem-
perature as the ambient tem-
perature.
Only check the tire inflation
pressure levels when the tires
are cold, i.e.:
• Driving range of max. 1.25
miles/2 km has not been
exceeded.
• If the vehicle has not moved again for at least 2 hours after
a trip.
Check the tire inflation pressure
of the emergency wheel in the
cargo area regularly, and correct
it as needed.
1 Determine, refer to page 264,
the intended tire inflation
pressure levels for the
mounted tires.
2 Check the tire inflation pres-
sure in all four tires, using a
pressure gauge, for example.
3 Correct the tire inflation pres-
sure if the actual tire inflation
pressure deviates from spec-
ified tire inflation pressure.
4 Check whether all valve caps
are screwed onto the tire
valves.

With tires that cannot be found
in the tire pressure values on
the Control Display, reset the
Tire Pressure Monitor TPM. For speeds of up to 100
mph/160 km/h and for optimum
driving comfort, note the pres-
sure values in the tire inflation
pressure table, refer to page
266, and adjust as necessary.
These pressure values can also
be found on the tire inflation
pressure label on the driver's
door pillar.
Do not exceed a speed of 100
mph/160 km/h.

Winter and all-season tires with
better cold weather performance
than summer tires.
Do not drive with a tire tread of
less than 0.12 in/3 mm, other-
wise there is an increased risk
of hydroplaning.
Do not drive with a tire tread of
less than 0.16 in/4 mm, as such
tires are less suitable for winter
operation.Wear indicators are distributed
around the tire's circumference
and have the legally required
minimum height of 0.063
inches/1.6 mm.
The positions of the wear indica-
tors are marked on the tire side-
wall with TWI, Tread Wear
Indicator.
Inspect your tires regularly for
damage, foreign objects lodged
in the tread, and tread wear.
Driving over rough or damaged
road surfaces, as well as debris,
curbs and other obstacles can
cause serious damage to
wheels, tires and suspension
parts. This is more likely to
occur with low-profile tires,
which provide less cushioning
between the wheel and the
road. Be careful to avoid road
hazards and reduce your speed,
especially if your vehicle is
WARNING
The temperature grade for this tire
is established for a tire that is
properly inflated and not over-
loaded. Excessive speed, under-
inflation, or excessive loading,
either separately or in combina-
tion, can cause heat buildup and
possible tire failure.

equipped with low-profile tires.
Indications of tire damage or
other vehicle malfunctions:
• Unusual vibrations.
• Unusual tire or running noises.
• Unusual handling such as a strong tendency to pull to the
left or right.
Damage can be caused by the
following situations, for instance:
• Driving over curbs.
• Road damage.
• Tire inflation pressure too low.
• Vehicle overloading.
• Incorrect tire storage.
Have mounting and wheel bal-
ancing carried out by your Toy-
ota dealer.
The following properties are rec-
ommended and approved by the
manufacturer of the vehicle for
the approved wheels and tires
per vehicle type and special
equipment:
• Wheel and tire combinations.
• Rim designs.
• Tire sizes.
• Tire brands.
You can ask a manufacturer ser-
vice center or another qualified
service center or repair shop
about the approved wheels and
Safety information
WARNING
Damaged tires can lose tire infla-
tion pressure, which can lead to
loss of vehicle control. There is a
risk of an accident. If tire damage
is suspected while driving, imme-
diately reduce speed and stop.
Have wheels and tires checked.
For this purpose, drive carefully to
the nearest your Toyota dealer.
Have vehicle towed or trans-
ported as needed. Do not repair
damaged tires, but have them
replaced.
WARNING
Tires can become damaged by
driving over obstacles, e.g., curbs
or road damage, at high speed.
Larger wheels have a smaller tire
crosssection. The smaller the tire
cross-section, the higher the risk
of tire damage. There is a danger
of accidents and property dam-
age. If possible, avoid driving over
objects or road conditions that
may damage tires, or drive over
them slowly and carefully.

tial after a break-in time.
Drive conservatively for the first
200 miles/300 km.
The manufacturer of your vehi-
cle does not recommend the
use of retreaded tires.
Winter tires are recommended
for operating on winter roads.
Although so-called all-season
M+S tires provide better winter
traction than summer tires, they
usually do not provide the same
level of performance as winter
tires.
If the maximum speed of the
vehicle is higher than the per-
missible speed for the winter
tires, then attach a label show-
ing the permissible maximum
speed in the field of view. The label is available from your Toy-
ota dealer.
With winter tires mounted,
observe and do not exceed the
permissible maximum speed.
Do not exceed the maximum tire
inflation pressure indicated on
the side wall of the tire.
Store wheels and tires in a cool,
dry and dark place.
Always protect tires against all
contact with oil, grease, and sol-
vents.
Do not leave tires in plastic
bags.
Remove dirt from wheels or
tires.
Retreaded tires
WARNING
Retreaded tires can have different
tire casing structures. With
advanced age the service life can
be limited. There is a risk of an
accident. The manufacturer of
your vehicle does not recommend
the use of retreaded tires.

Rotating tires between the axles
