Spare Tire

Your Toyota has a temporary spare tire. The temporary spare tire is

lighter and smaller than a conventional tire, and is designed only for

emergency use and should be used only for VERY short periods.

Temporary spare tires should NEVER be used for long drives or

extended periods.

■ To remove the spare tire

1

Lift the trunk/luggage com-

partment mat.

2

Turn the spare tire hold-down

bolt counterclockwise.

■ To secure the spare tire

Store the spare tire in the reverse order of removal. After storing,

verify that the spare tire is stored securely.

WARNING

■Do not install the temporary spare tire on the front wheels (driving

wheels)

Driving with the temporary spare tire on one of the front driving wheels

is dangerous. Handling will be affected. You could lose control of the

vehicle, especially on ice or snow bound roads, and have an accident.

Move a regular tire to the front wheel and install the temporary spare tire

to the rear.

NOTICE

●When using the temporary spare tire, driving stability may decrease

compared to when using only the conventional tire. Drive carefully.

●To avoid damage to the temporary spare tire or to the vehicle, observe

the following precautions:

• Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).

• Avoid driving over obstacles. Also, do not drive through an auto-

matic car wash. This tire’s diameter is smaller than a conventional

tire, so the ground clearance is reduced.

• Do not use a tire chain on this tire because it will not fit properly.

• Do not use your temporary spare tire on any other vehicle, it has

been designed only for your Toyota.

• Use only one temporary spare tire on your vehicle at the same time.
