It


To equalize tire wear and help extend tire life, Toyota recommends that you rotate your tires every 12000 km (7500
miles). However, the most appropriate timing for tire rotation may vary ac- cording to your driving habits and road surface conditions. See “If you have a flat tire” in Part 4 for tire change procedure. When rotating tires, check for even wear and damage. Abnormal wear is usually caused by incorrect tire pressure, improp- er wheel alignment, out-of-balance wheels, or severe braking.


Installing snow tires and chains WHEN TO USE SNOW TIRES OR CHAINS Snow tires or chains are recom- mended when driving on snow or ice. On wet or dry roads, conventional tires provide better traction than snow tires. SNOW TIRE SELECTION If you need snow tires, select tires of the same size, construction and load capacity as the original tires on your Toyota. Do not use tires other than those mentioned above. Do not install studded tires without first checking local regulations for possible re- strictions. SNOW TIRE INSTALLATION Snow tires should be installed on all wheels. Installing snow tires on the front wheels only can lead to an excessive difference in road grip capability between the front and rear tires which would cause loss of vehicle control. When storing removed tires, you should store them in a cool dry place. Mark the di- rection of rotation and be sure to install them in the same direction when replac- ing.


193


If wheel covers are used, they will be scratched by the chain band, so remove the covers before putting on the chains.


CAUTION


(cid:1) Do not exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) or the chain manufacturer’s recom- mended speed limit, whichever is lower.


(cid:1) Drive carefully avoiding bumps, holes, and sharp turns, which may cause the vehicle to bounce.


(cid:1) Avoid sharp turns or


locked- wheel braking, as use of chains may adversely affect vehicle han- dling.


NOTICE


Do not attempt to use a tire chain on the compact spare tire, as it may result in damage to the vehicle as well as the tire.


Replacing wheels WHEN TO REPLACE YOUR WHEELS If you have wheel damage such as bending, cracks or heavy corrosion, the wheel should be replaced. If you fail to replace damaged wheels, the tire may slip off the wheel or they may cause loss of handling control. WHEEL SELECTION When replacing wheels, care should be taken to ensure that the wheels are replaced by ones with the same load capacity, diameter, rim width, and off- set. This must be observed on compact spare tires, too. Correct replacement wheels are available at your Toyota dealer. A wheel of a different size or type may ad- versely affect handling, wheel and bear- ing life, brake cooling, speedometer/ odometer calibration, stopping ability, headlight aim, bumper height, vehicle ground clearance, and tire or snow chain clearance to the body and chassis.


CAUTION


(cid:1) Do not drive with the snow tires in-


correctly inflated.


(cid:1) Never drive over 120 km/h (75 mph)


with any type of snow tires.


TIRE CHAIN SELECTION Use the tire chains of correct size and type. Use SAE Class “S” type radial tire chains except radial cable chains or V-bar type chains. Regulations regarding the use of tire chains vary according to location or type of road, so always check them be- fore installing chains. CHAIN INSTALLATION Install the chains on the front tires as tightly as possible. Do not use tire chains on the rear tires. Retighten chains after driving 0.51.0 km (1/41/2 mile). When installing chains on your tires, care- fully follow the instructions of the chain manufacturer. 194


Replacement with used wheels is not rec- ommended as they may have been sub- jected to rough treatment or high mileage and could fail without warning. Also, bent wheels which have been straightened may have structural damage and there- fore should not be used. Never use an in- ner tube in a leaking wheel which is de- signed for a tubeless tire.


Aluminum wheel precautions (cid:1) After driving your vehicle the first 1600
km (1000 miles), check that the wheel nuts are tight. If you have rotated, repaired, or changed your tires, check that the wheel nuts are still tight after driving 1600 km (1000 miles).


(cid:1)


(cid:1) When using tire chains, be careful not


to damage the aluminum wheels.


(cid:1) Use only the Toyota wheel nuts and wrench designed for your aluminum wheels.


(cid:1) When balancing your wheels, use only Toyota balance weights or equivalent and a plastic or rubber hammer.


(cid:1) As with any wheel, periodically check your aluminum wheels for damage. If damaged, replace immediately.

—Checking battery fluid There are two types of batteries: Main- tenance type and non-maintenance type. A non-maintenance battery has “MAIN- TENANCE FREE BATTERY” on its top. A maintenance type battery does not have such indication. Maintenance type battery— Check the fluid condition by the fluid level lines on the side of the battery. Or if the battery has a hydrometer on its top, you can also check the hydrometer. Non-maintenance battery— Check the battery condition by hydrometer on the top of the battery.

2.


the vent plugs. If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect the ground cable.


ADDING DISTILLED WATER (MAINTE- NANCE TYPE BATTERY ONLY) 1. Remove the vent plugs. 2. Add distilled water to cells needing


fluid. If the side of your battery is covered, check the water level by looking down directly above the cell as illustrated above.


3. Retighten the vent plugs securely.


200


3. Be sure the power switch on the re- charger is off when connecting the charger cables to the battery and when disconnecting them.


CAUTION


(cid:1) Always charge the battery in an unconfined area. Do not charge the battery in a garage or closed room where there is not sufficient ventilation.


(cid:1) Non-maintenance batteries: Only do a slow charge (5A or less). Charging at a quicker rate is dan- gerous. The battery may explode, causing personal injuries. Maintenance type batteries: Be sure to remove the vent plugs be- fore recharging.


Checking and replacing fuses


NOTICE


Never recharge the battery while the engine is running. Also, be sure all accessories are turned off.


If the headlights or other electrical components do not work, check the fuses. If any of the fuses are blown, they must be replaced. See “Fuse locations” in Chapter 7-1 for locations of the fuses. Turn the ignition switch and inopera- tive component off. Pull a suspected fuse straight out and check it. Determine which fuse may be causing the problem. The lid of the fuse box shows the name of the circuit for each fuse. See Part 8 of this manual for the functions con- trolled by each circuit.


201


If the new fuse immediately blows out, there is a problem with the electrical sys- tem. Have your Toyota dealer correct it as soon as possible.


CAUTION


Never use a fuse with a higher am- perage rating, or any other object, in place of a fuse. This may cause extensive damage and possibly a fire.


Adding washer fluid If any washer does not work or low windshield washer fluid level warning light comes on, the washer tank may be empty. Add washer fluid. You may use plain water as washer fluid. However, in cold areas where tempera- tures range below freezing point, use washer fluid containing antifreeze. This product is available at your Toyota dealer and most auto parts stores. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for how much to mix with water.


NOTICE


Do not use engine antifreeze or any other substitute because ti may damage your vehicle’s paint.


Type A fuses can be pulled out by using the pull-out tool. The location of the pull- out tool is shown in the illustration. If you are not sure whether the fuse has blown, try replacing the suspected fuse with one that you know is good. If the fuse has blown, push a new fuse into the clip. Only install a fuse with the amperage rat- ing designated on the fuse box lid. If you do not have a spare fuse, in an emergency you can pull out the “MIR HTR”, “DOME” or “A/C” fuse, which may be dispensable for normal driving, and use it if its amperage rating is the same. If you cannot use one of the same amper- age, use one that is lower, but as close as possible to the rating. If the amperage is lower than that specified, the fuse might blow out again but this does not indicate anything wrong. Be sure to get the correct fuse as soon as possible and return the substitute to its original clip. It is a good idea to purchase a set of spare fuses and keep them in your vehicle for emergencies.


202


Replacing light bulbs— The following illustrations show how to gain access to the bulbs. When replacing a bulb, make sure the ignition switch and light switch are off. Use bulbs with the wattage ratings given in the table.


CAUTION


Halogen bulbs have pressurized gas inside and require special handling. They can burst or shatter if scratched or dropped. Hold a bulb only by its plastic or metal case. Do not touch the glass part of a bulb with bare hands.


NOTICE


Only use a bulb of the listed type.

REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS FOR U.S. OWNERS AND UNIFORM TIRE QUALITY GRADING (cid:1) Reporting safety defects for


U.S. owners


(cid:1) Uniform tire quality grading


Reporting safety defects for U.S. owners If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could cause a crash or could cause injury or death, you should immediately inform the Na- tional Highway Traffic Safety Ad- ministration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. (Toll-free: 1-800-331-4331). If NHTSA receives similar com- plaints, it may open a investiga- tion, and if it finds that a safety de- fect exists in a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy campaign. However, NHTSA can- not become involved in individual problems between you, your deal- er, or Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.


To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety Hotline tollfree at 1-800-424-9393 (or 366-0123
in Washington D.C. area) or write to: NHTSA. U.S. Department of Transportation. Washington D.C. 20590. You can also obtain other information about motor vehicle safety from the Hotline.


219


Warning: The temperature grades for this tire are established for a tire that is proper- ly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, underinflation, or excessive load- ing, wither separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.


Uniform tire quality grading This information has been prepared in ac- cordance with regulations issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminis- tration of the U.S. Department of Trans- portation. It provides the purchasers and/ or prospective purchasers of Toyota vehicles with information on uniform tire quality grading. Your Toyota dealer will help answer any questions you may have as you read this information. DOT quality grades—All passenger vehicle tires must conform to Federal Safety Requirements in addition to these grades. These quality grades are molded on the sidewall. Treadwear—The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under con- trolled conditions on a specified govern- ment test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and a half (1-1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and may depart significantly from the norm due to variations in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.

Traction A, B, C—The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are A, B, and C, and they represent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pavement as measured under controlled conditions on specified govern- ment test surfaces of asphalt and con- crete. A tire marked C may have poor trac- tion performance. Warning: The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight ahead) traction tests and does not include cornering (turning) traction. Temperature A, B, C—The temperature grades are A (the highest), B, and C, rep- resenting the tire’s resistance to the gen- eration of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled condi- tions on a specific indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire life, and ex- cessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a level of performance which all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Mo- tor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

Keys and Doors


(cid:1) Keys (cid:1) Side doors (cid:1) Power windows (cid:1) Trunk lid (cid:1) Hood (cid:1) Theft deterrent system (cid:1) Fuel tank cap (cid:1) Electric moon roof


Your vehicle is supplied with two kinds of key. 1. Master key- This key works in every


lock.


2. Subkey- This key will not work in the


glovebox.


To protect things locked in the glovebox when you have your vehicle parked, leave the subkey with the attendant. Since the side doors and back door can be locked without a key, you should always carry a spare key in case you accidentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.


KEY NUMBER PLATE Your key number is shown on the plate. Keep the plate in a safe place such as your wallet, not in the vehicle. If you should lose your keys of if you need additional keys, duplicates can be made by a Toyota dealer using the key number. You should also put a copy of the key number with your important papers.


Side doors


LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH KEY Insert the key into the keyhole and turn it. To lock: Turn the key forward. To unlock: Turn the key backward. Vehicles with power door lock sys- tem—All doors lock and unlock simulta- neously with either front door. In the driv- er’s door lock, turning the key once will unlock the driver’s door and twice in suc- cession will unlock all the side doors and back door simultaneously.


Driver’s side


LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH IN- SIDE LOCK BUTTON Move the lock button. To lock: Push the button downward. To unlock: Pull the button upward. Closing the door with the lock button pushed in will also lock the door. Be care- ful not to lock your keys in the vehicle.

Passenger’s side


LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WITH POWER DOOR LOCK SWITCH Push the switch. To lock: Push the switch on the front side. To unlock: Push the switch on the rear side All the doors lock or unlock simultaneous- ly.


REAR DOOR CHILD-PROTECTORS Move the lock lever to the “LOCK” position as shown on the label. This feature allows you to lock a rear door so it can be opened from the outside only, not from inside. We recommend using this feature whenever small children are in the vehicle.


CAUTION


Before driving, be sure that the doors are closed and locked, espe- cially when small children are in the vehicle. Along with the proper use of seat belts, locking the doors helps prevent the driver and passengers from being thrown out from the ve- hicle during an accident. It also helps prevent the doors from being opened unintentionally.


You have 30 seconds to open a door after using the wireless remote unlock feature. If a door is not opened by then, all the doors will be automatically locked again. If the “LOCK” or “UNLOCK” switch is kept pressed in, the locking or unlocking opeartion is not repeated. Release the button and then push again.
