Maintenance and care
QWhen replacing wheels
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped with tire pressure warn ing valves
and transmitters that allow the tire pressure warning system to provide
advance warning in the event of a loss in tire inflation pressu re. Whenever
wheels are replaced, tire pressure warning valves and transmitt ers must be
installed. ( P. 601)
WARNING
QWhen replacing wheels
O Do not use wheels that are a different size from those recommended in the
Owner’s Manual, as this may resu lt in a loss of handling control.
O Never use an inner tube in a leaking wheel which is designed for a tube-
less tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or serious
injury.
Q When installing the wheel nuts
Never use oil or grease on the wheel bolts or wheel nuts.
Oil and grease may cause the wheel nuts to be excessively tight ened, lead-
ing to bolt or disc wheel damage. In addition, the oil or greas e can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off, causing an acc ident and
resulting in death or serious injury. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel
bolts or wheel nuts.
Q Use of defective wheels prohibited
Do not use cracked or deformed wheels.
Doing so could cause the tire to leak air during driving, possi bly causing an
accident.
NOTICE
Q Replacing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
O Because tire repair or replacement may affect the tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters, make sure to have tires serviced by an y autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any rel iable repairer
or other qualified service shop. In addition, make sure to purc hase your
tire pressure warning valves and transmitters at any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repaire r.
O Ensure that only genuine Toyota wheels are used on your vehicle.
Tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not work prop erly with
