and inset
*
.

Toyota does not recommend using
the following:

■ When replacing wheels (vehicles
with tire pressure warning system)
The wheels of your vehicle are equipped
with tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters that allow the tire pressure
warning system to provide advance
warning in the event of a loss in tire
inflation pressure. Whenever wheels are
replaced, tire pressure warning valves
and transmitters must be installed.

WARNING
■ Proper inflation is critical to save
tire performance
Keep your tires properly inflated.
If the tires are not properly inflated,
the following conditions may occur
which could lead to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury:
● Excessive wear
● Uneven wear
● Poor handling
● Possibility of blowouts resulting
from overheated tires
● Air leaking from between tire and
wheel
● Wheel deformation and/or tire dam-
age
● Greater possibility of tire damage
while driving (due to road hazards,
expansion joints, sharp edges in the
road, etc.)
NOTICE
■ When inspecting and adjusting
tire inflation pressure
Be sure to put the tire valve caps back
on.
If a valve cap is not installed, dirt or
moisture may get into the valve and
cause an air leak, resulting in
decreased tire inflation pressure.
Wheels
If a wheel is bent, cracked or
heavily corroded, it should be
replaced. Otherwise, the tire
may separate from the wheel
or cause a loss of handling
control.
