8-2. Steps to take in an emergency
1
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.
2
Install the spare tire and loosely
tighten each wheel nut by hand
by approximately the same
amount.
When replacing a steel wheel with a
steel wheel, tighten the nuts until the
tapered portion
comes into loose
contact with the disc wheel seat
.
When replacing an aluminum wheel
with a steel wheel, tighten the wheel
nuts until the tapered portion
comes into loose contact with the disc
WARNING
■
Replacing a flat tire
●
Do not touch the disc wheels or the
area around the brakes immedi-
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 with
hands, feet or other body parts
while changing a tire, etc. may
result in burns.
●
Failure to follow these precautions
could cause the wheel nuts to
loosen and the tire to fall off, result-
ing in death or serious injury.
• Have the wheel nuts tightened with
a torque wrench to 103 N•m (10.5
kgf•m, 76 ft•lbf) as soon as possible
after changing wheels.
• Do not attach a heavily damaged
wheel ornament, as it may fly off the
wheel while the vehicle is moving.
• When installing a tire, only use
wheel nuts that have been specifi-
cally designed for that wheel.
• If there are any cracks or deforma-
tions in the bolt screws, nut threads
or bolt holes of the wheel, have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
• When installing the wheel nuts, be
sure to install them with the tapered
ends facing inward.
●
For vehicles with power back door:
In cases such as when replacing
tires, make sure to turn off the
power back door system (
P.168).
Failure to do so may cause the
back door to operate unintentionally
if the power back door switch is
accidentally touched, resulting in
hands and fingers being caught and
injured.
