5-2. Steps to take in an emergency
CAUTION
■
Replacing a flat tire
●
Have the wheel nuts tightened with a torque wrench to 85 ft·lbf (113
N·m, 11.5 kgf·m) as soon as possible after changing wheels.
Failure to follow these precautions could cause the nuts to loosen and
the wheels may fall off, which could lead to an accident causing death
or serious injury.
●
Do not attach a heavily damaged wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the vehicle is moving.
NOTICE
■
Do not drive the vehicle with a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat tire.
Driving even a short distance with a flat tire can damage the tire and the
wheel beyond repair.
■

When removing or fitting the wheels, tires or the tire pressure warning
valve and transmitter, contact your Toyota dealer as the tire pressure
warning valve and transmitter may be damaged if not handled cor-
rectly.

mitters as well.

ters
