CAUTION

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.

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.

Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns. Also, do
not mix tires of remarkably different treadwear.

Do not use tire sizes other than those recommended by Toyota.

Do not mix differently constructed tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply
tires).

Do not mix summer, all season and winter tires.

Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.

Do not use tires if you do not know how they were used previously.
