mation is available from any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
Do not exceed the maximum tyre
inflation pressure indicated on the
tyre's side wall.
• Store wheels and tyres in a cool,
dry and dark place when not in
use.
• Protect the tyres against contam-
ination from oil, grease and sol-
vents.
• Do not leave tyres in plastic
bags.
• Remove dirt from the wheels or
tyres.
In the event of a complete loss of
tyre inflation pressure, run-flat tyres
enable you to continue driving, with
certain restrictions.
The wheels are fitted with tyres
which are self-supporting to a lim-
ited degree. They may also have
special rims.
The reinforced side wall means that
the tyre keeps the vehicle mobile to
a degree even if tyre inflation pres-
sure has been lost.
Observe the notes on continuing to
drive with a flat tyre.
Swapping over front and rear
wheels
WA R N I N G

sizes or rim dimensions on the front and rear axles may cause tyre dam-
age and damage to the vehicle. There
is a risk of accident. Do not swap over wheels between axles on vehicles
with different tyre sizes or rim dimen-
sions on the front and rear axles.

Safety notes
WA R N I N G
A run-flat tyre which has low tyre infla-
tion pressure or no tyre inflation pres- sure at all will change the vehicle's
handling characteristics, for example
there may be reduced directional sta- bility when braking, longer braking
distances and different self-steering
characteristics. There is a danger of accidents. Drive with care and do not
exceed a speed of 80 km/h, 50 mph.

get out of the vehicle. It is not possi-
ble to lock the vehicle from the out-
side in selector lever position N. If
an attempt is made to lock the vehi-
cle, a signal sounds.

Do not rub wet headlights dry and
do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents.

dues with shampoo and wash off
with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do
not use an ice scraper.
After the vehicle has been washed,
briefly apply the brakes to dry them
otherwise braking effectiveness
may be temporarily reduced. The
heat generated by braking dries the
brake discs and br ake pads and
