6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Maintenance and care
Use only Toyota wheel nuts and
wheel nut wrenches designed for
use with your aluminum wheels.
When rotating, repairing or
changing your tires, check that
the wheel nuts are still tight after
driving 1600 km (1000 miles).
Be careful not to damage the
aluminum wheels when using
tire chains.
Use only Toyota genuine balance
weights or equivalent and a plas-
tic or rubber hammer when bal-
ancing your wheels.
WARNING
●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, leading to bolt or disc wheel
damage. In addition, the oil or grease can cause the wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel may fall off,
causing an accident and resulting in death or serious injury. Remove any oil or grease from the wheel bolts or
wheel nuts.
■Use of defective wheels prohib-
ited
Do not use cracked or deformed wheels. Doing so could cause the tire
to leak air during driving, possibly causing an accident.
NOTICE
■Replacing tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters
●Because tire repair or replacement
may affect the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters, make sure to have tires serviced by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. In addition, make sure to
purchase your tire pressure warn- ing valves and transmitters at any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Ensure that only genuine Toyota wheels are used on your vehicle.Tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters may not work properly with non-genuine wheels.

tery (traction battery). If charging/discharging of the hybrid battery (traction battery) becomes lim-
ited, the distance that the vehicle can be driven using the electric motor (traction motor) may be reduced and
the fuel economy may be reduced. Inspect and clean the air intake vent periodically.

damage to them. If you have any con- cerns about cleaning the filter, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer.

make sure to only use a vacuum to suck out dust and clogs. If a com-pressed air blow gun, etc. is used to
blow out dust and clogs, the dust or clogs may be pushed into the air intake vent, which may affect the per-
formance of the hybrid battery (trac- tion battery) and cause a malfunction.
■To prevent damage to the vehicle
●Do not allow water or foreign matter to enter the air intake vent when the
cover is removed.
●Carefully handle the removed filter
so that it will not be damaged. If the filter is damaged, have it replaced with a new filter by any
