When replacing wheels
The wheels of your Toyota are equipped with tire pressure warning
valves and transmitters (except for spare tire) that allow the tire pressure
warning system to provide advanced warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are replaced, the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters must be installed. (

CAUTION
n
When replacing wheels
l
Do not use wheels that are a different size from those recommended in
the Owner’s Manual, as this may result in loss of handling control.
l
Never use an inner tube in a leaking wheel which is designed for a
tubeless tire. Doing so may result in an accident, causing death or seri-
ous injury.
NOTICE
n
Replacing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters
l
Because tire repair or replacement may affect the tire pressure warn-
ing valves and transmitters, make sure to have tires serviced by your
Toyota dealer or other qualified service shop. In addition, make sure to
purchase your tire pressure warning valves and transmitters at your
Toyota dealer.
l
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.
