CAUTION
 Driving with tire chains
 Vehicles with an emergency tire puncture repair kit: When any of the tires
are punctured, you can seal the tire temporarily. However, do not use the
tire chain on a sealed tire. If any of the rear tires are punctured although it
is required to use tire chains, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
 Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely,
and may cause death or serious injury.
• Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains
being used, or 30 km/h (19 mph), whichever is lower.
• Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
• Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting
operations that cause sudden engine braking.
• Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.
Always use the utmost care when driving with tire chains - overconfidence
because you are driving with tire chains could easily lead to a serious acci-
dent.
NOTICE
 Using the tire chains
Use only chains that are of the correct size for your tires so as not to damage
the vehicle body or suspension.
