3224-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving assist systems
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenl y,
or if the brakes are applied while  driving on a slippery road surface
◆Multi Terrain ABS (Anti-lock  Brake System) (if equipped)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenl y,
or if the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road s urface,
or in off-road conditions (such as rough roads, sand and mud)
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake p edal
is depressed when the system de tects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability)
Helps  the  driver  to  control  skidding  when  swerving  suddenly  or
turning on slippery road surfaces
◆Trailer Sway Control (if equipped)
Helps the driver to control trailer sway by selectively applying brake
pressure  for  individual  wheels  and  reducing  engine  torque  when
trailer sway is detected.
Trailer  Sway  Control  is  part  of  the  VSC  system  and  will  not  ope rate  if
VSC system is turned off or experiences a malfunction.
◆TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps  to  maintain  drive  power  and  prevent  the  drive  wheels  from
spinning when starting the vehicl e or accelerating on slippery roads
To  help  enhance  driving  safety   and  performance,  the  following
systems  operate  autom atically  in  response  to  various  driving
situations.  Be  aware,  however,  that  these  systems  are  supple-
mentary and should not be relied upon too heavily when operat-
ing the vehicle.

When trouble arises
Remove any dirt or foreign mat-
ter  from  the  wheel  contact  sur-
face.
If  foreign  matter  is  on  the  wheel
contact  surface,  the  wheel  nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is in
motion,  causing  the  tire  to  come
off.
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 avoi d unexpected personal injury.
• Do not touch the disc wheels or the area around the brakes imm edi-
ately 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 w ith
hands,  feet  or  other  body  parts  while  changing  a  tire,  etc.,  ma y
result in burns.
●Failure  to  follow  these  precautions  could  cause  the  wheel  nuts  to
loosen and the t ire to fall off, resulting in death or serious injury.
• Have  the  wheel  nuts  tightened  with  a  torque  wrench  to  83  ft·lb f
(113 N·m, 11.5 kgf·m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
• When  installing  a  tire,  only  use  wheel  nuts  that  have  been  spe cifi-
cally designed for that wheel.
• If  there  are  any  cracks  or  defo rmations  in  the  bolt  screws,  nut
threads  or  bolt  holes  of  the  wheel,  have  the  vehicle  inspected  by
your Toyota dealer.
• Do  not  attach  a  heavily  damaged  wheel  ornament,  as  it  may  fly  off
the wheel while the  vehicle is moving.
• When  installing  the  wheel  nuts,  be  sure  to  install  them  with  t he
tapered ends facing inward.

5227-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Remove  the  center  wheel  ornament  by  pushing  from  the  reverse
side.
Lay down the tire with the valve
stem  facing  up  and  install  the
holding  bracket,  inserting  the
claw into the wheel lug nut hole.
Turn  the  jack  handle  extension
clockwise  to  take  up  slack  in
the chain.
Then, check to ensure the claw is
in the wheel lug nut hole and the
holding bracket is centered in the
wheel hub.
Holding bracket
Claw
While raising, secure the tire, tak-
ing care that the tire goes straight
up  without  catching  on  any  sur-
rounding  parts,  to  prevent  it  from
flying forward during a collision or
sudden braking.
Tightening torque:  
27.6 ft·lbf (37.4 N·m, 3.8 kgf·m)
Confirm  it  is  not  loose  after
tightening:
Push and pull the tire
Try rotating
Visually check to ensure tire is
not hung on surrounding parts.
If looseness or misassembly ex ists, repeat step   and step  .
Repeat step  , any time the tire is lowered or disturbed.
Stow the tools and jack securely.
