236

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n Engine oil consumption

l The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the

quality of the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.

l More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and

frequent acceleration and deceleration.

l A new engine consumes more oil. l When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accu- rately.

l Oil consumption: Max. 1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp.qt./600 miles (1.0 L per

1000 km) If you consume more than 1.1 qt. (1.0 L, 0.9 lmp.qt.) every 600 miles (1000 km), contact your Toyota dealer.

n After changing the engine oil (except Canada)

The oil change system should be reset. Perform the following procedures:

Turn the engine switch off with the Trip A reading shown.(→P. 121) Turn the engine switch to the ON position while holding down the ODO/TRIP button. Continue to press and hold the button until the trip meter displays 000000.

If the system fails to reset, the light will continue flashing.

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance Tires

Replace or rotate tires in accordance with maintenance sched- ules and treadwear. n Checking tires

location of

New tread Treadwear indicator Worn tread The treadwear indicators is shown by the “TWI” or “ ” marks, etc., molded on the sidewall of each tire. Check spare tire condition and inflation pressure if not rotated.

Rotate the tires in the order shown.

To equalize tire wear and extend tire life, Toyota recom- mends that tire rotation is carried out at the same inter- val as tire inspection.

n Tire rotation

Front

n The tire pressure warning system

Your Toyota is equipped with a tire pressure warning system that uses tire pressure warning valves and transmitters to detect low tire inflation pressure before serious problems arise. (→P. 300)

246

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

Installing tire pressure warning valves and transmitters

When replacing tires or wheels, tire pressure warning valves and transmitters must also be installed. When new tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are installed, new tire pressure warning valve and transmitter ID codes must be regis- tered in the tire pressure warning computer and tire pressure warning system must be initialized. Have tire pressure warning valve and trans- mitter ID codes registered by your Toyota dealer.

Registering ID codes

The tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is equipped with a unique ID code. When replacing a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter, it is necessary to register the ID code of tire pressure warning valve and transmitter. Have the ID code registered by your Toyota dealer.

n When to replace your vehicle's tires

Tires should be replaced if: l You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to

expose the fabric or bulges indicating internal damage

l A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly repaired due to the

size or location of a cut or other damage

If you are not sure, consult with your Toyota dealer.

n Replacing tires and wheels

If the ID code of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter is not registered, the tire pressure warning system will not work properly. After driving for about 20 minutes, the tire pressure warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute to indicate a system malfunction.

n Tire life

Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if they have seldom or never been used or damage is not obvious.

247

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n If the tread wears down below 0.16 in. (4 mm) on snow tires

The effectiveness of snow tires is lost.

n Maximum load of tire

Check that the maximum load of the replacement tire is greater than 1/2
of the Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR) of either the front axle or the rear axle, whichever is greater.

For the GAWR, see the Certification Label. For the maximum load of the tire, see the load limit at maximum cold tire inflation pressure mentioned on the sidewall of the tire. (→P. 346)

n Tire types

1 Summer tires

Summer tires are high-speed performance tires best suited to highway driving under dry conditions. Since summer tires do not have the same traction performance as snow tires, summer tires are inadequate for driving on snow-covered or icy roads. For driving on snow-covered roads or icy roads, the use of snow tires is recommended. When installing snow tires, be sure to replace all four tires.

2 All season tires

All season tires are designed to provide better traction in snow and to be adequate for driving in most winter conditions, as well as for use year round. All season tires, however, do not have adequate traction performance compared with snow tires in heavy or loose snow. Also, all season tires fall short in acceleration and handling performance compared with summer tires in highway driving.

3 Snow tires

For driving on snow-covered roads or icy roads, we recommend using snow tires. If you need snow tires, select tires of the same size, con- struction and load capacity as the originally installed tires. Since your vehicle has radial tires as original equipment, make sure your snow tires also have radial construction. Do not install studded tires without first checking local regulations for possible restriction. Snow tires should be installed on all wheels. (→P. 148)

248

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n Routine tire inflation pressure checks

The tire pressure warning system does not replace routine tire inflation pressure checks. Make sure to check tire inflation pressure as part of your routine of daily vehicle checks.

n Tire pressure warning system certification

249

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

CAUTION

n Tire pressure warning system operation

The tire pressure warning system may not provide warning immediately if a tire bursts or if sudden air leakage occurs.

n When inspecting or replacing tires

Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents. Failure to do so may cause damage to parts of the drive train, as well as dangerous han- dling characteristics, which may lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury. l Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns.

Also, do not mix tires of remarkably different treadwear.

l Do not use tire sizes other than those recommended by Toyota. l Do not mix differently constructed tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply

tires).

l Do not mix summer, all season and winter tires. l Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle. l Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.

250

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

NOTICE

n Repairing or replacing tires, wheels, tire pressure warning valves

and transmitters and tire valve caps l 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.

l When replacing tire valve caps, do not use tire valve caps other than

those specified. The cap may become stuck.

n To avoid damaging the tire pressure warning valves and transmit-

ters Do not use liquid sealants on flat tires.

n Driving on rough roads

Take particular care when driving on roads with loose surfaces or pot- holes. These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing the cushioning ability of the tires. In addition driving on rough roads may cause damage to the tires themselves, as well as the vehicle’s wheels and body.

n If tire inflation pressures become low while driving

Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined.

251

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance Tire inflation pressure

n Tire inflation pressure The recommended cold tire inflation pressure and tire size is dis- played on the tire and loading information label. (→P. 346)

252

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n Inspection and adjustment procedure

Tire valve Tire pressure gauge

Remove the tire valve cap. Press the tip of the tire pressure gauge onto the tire valve. Read the pressure using the graduations of the gauge. If the tire inflation pressure is not within the recommended levels, adjust inflate the tire. If you add too much air, press the center of the valve to lower. After completing the tire inflation pressure measurement and adjustment, apply soapy water to the valve and check for leakage. Reinstall the tire valve cap.

253

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n Tire inflation pressure check interval

You should check tire pressure every two weeks, or at least once a month. Do not forget to check the spare tire.

n Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure

Driving with incorrect tire inflation pressure may result in the following: l Reduced fuel efficiency l Reduced driving comfort and tire life l Reduced safety l Damage to the drive train If a tire needs frequent refilling, have it checked by your Toyota dealer.

n Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure

When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following: l Check only when the tires are cold.

If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours and has not been driven for more than 1 mile or 1.5 km, you will get an accurate cold tire inflation pressure reading.

l Always use a tire pressure gauge.

The appearance of the tire can be misleading. In addition, tire infla- tion pressures that are even just a few pounds off can degrade ride and handling.

l Do not bleed or reduce tire inflation pressure after driving. It is normal

for the tire inflation pressure to be higher after driving.

l Never exceed the vehicle capacity weight.

Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle is balanced.

254

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

CAUTION

n Proper inflation is critical to save tire performance

Keep your tires properly inflated. Otherwise, the following conditions may occur and result in an accident causing death or serious injury. l Excessive wear l Uneven wear l Poor handling l Possibility of blowouts resulting from overheated tires l Poor sealing of the tire bead l Wheel deformation and/or tire separation l A greater possibility of tire damage from road hazards

NOTICE

n When inspecting and adjusting tire inflation pressure

Be sure to reinstall the tire valve caps. Without the valve caps, dirt or moisture could get into the valve and cause air leakage, which could result in an accident. If the caps have been lost, replace them as soon as possible.

255

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance Wheels

If a wheel is bent, cracked or heavily corroded, it should be replaced. Otherwise, the tire may separate from the wheel or cause loss of handling control. n Wheel selection

When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that they are equivalent to those removed in load capacity, diameter, rim width, and inset*. Replacement wheels are available at your Toyota dealer. *: Conventionally referred to as “offset”. Toyota does not recommend using: l Wheels of different sizes or types l Used wheels l Bent wheels that have been straightened

n Aluminum wheel precautions (if equipped)

l Use only Toyota wheel nuts and wrench designed for use with

your aluminum wheels.

l When rotating, repairing or changing your tires, check that the

wheel nuts are still tight after driving 1000 miles (1600 km).

l Be careful not to damage the aluminum wheels when using

tire chains.

l Use only Toyota genuine balance weights or equivalent and a

plastic or rubber hammer when balancing your wheels.

256

4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance

n When replacing wheels

The wheels of your Toyota, except for the compact spare tire, are equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters 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. (→P. 247)

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.
