06 01.06 -Replacing tires and wheels When replacing the wheels, be sure to install air pressure sensors on the wheels. There are 3 ways to set up the air pressure sensors: a. Remove the sensor from the old wheel and install it to the new wheel. b. Keep the same wheel with air pressure sensor and replace only the tire. c. Use a new wheel and sensor. In this case, you have to register an ID code for a new sensor. NOTICE z Have the tires, wheels or sensors replaced and ID codes registered by a Toyota dealer. If you need sensors, purchase from a Toyota dealer. z The sensor nuts should always be tightened to a torque of 4 N·m (0.4 kgf·m, 2.9 ft·lbf). z The use of non- genuine wheels will cause the air pressure sensors to transmit the electronic code in different manner, resulting in the system failure. z Remove the air pressure sensors before replacing the tires to prevent the sensors from being damaged.
