Checking Tire Pressure - Toyota Sienna 2004 Operating Manual

Clean all dirt from outside of the reservoir
tank and look at the fluid level. If the fluid
is cold, the level should be in the "COLD"
range. Similarly, if it is hot, the fluid level
should be in the "HOT" range. If the level
is at the low side of either range, add
automatic transmission fluid DEXRONJII
or III to bring the level within the range.
To remove the reservoir cap, turn it coun-
terclockwise and lift up. To reinstall it,
turn it clockwise. After replacing the reser-
voir cap, visually check the steering box
case, vane pump and hose connections
for leaks or damage.
CAUTION
The reservoir tank may be hot so be
careful not to burn yourself.
NOTICE
Avoid overfilling, or the power steer-
ing could be damaged.

Checking tire pressure

Keep your tire pressures at the proper
level.
The recommended cold tire pressures, tire
size and the vehicle capacity weight are
given on pages 470 and 473 in Section 8.
They are also on the tire pressure label
as shown.
You should check the tire pressure every
two weeks, or at least once a month. And
don't forget the spare!
Incorrect tire pressure may waste fuel,
reduce the comfort of driving, reduce tire
life and make your vehicle less safe to
drive.
If a tire frequently needs refilling, have it
checked by your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Keep your tire pressure properly in-
flated. Otherwise, the following condi-
tions may occur and cause an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious in-
juries.
Low tire pressure (underinflation)—
"
Excessive wear
"
Uneven wear
"
Poor handling
"
Possibility of blowouts from over-
heated tire
"
Poor sealing of the tire bead
"
Wheel deformation and/or tire sepa-
ration
High tire pressure (overinflation)—
"
Poor handling
"
Excessive wear at the center of the
tire tread
"
A greater possibility of tire damage
from road hazards
