RADIO RECEPTION Usually, a problem with radio reception does not mean there is a problem with your radio —it is just the normal result of conditions outside the vehicle. For example, nearby buildings and terrain can interfere with FM reception. Power lines or telephone wires can interfere with AM signals. And of course, radio signals have a limited range, and the farther you are from a station, the weaker its signal will be. In addition, reception conditions change constantly as your vehicle moves.

signals are
Here are some common reception prob-
lems that probably do not indicate a prob-
lem with your radio:
FM
Fading and drifting stations—Generally, the
effective range of FM is about 40 km (25
miles). Once outside this range, you may
notice fading and drifting, which increase
with the distance from the radio transmit-
ter. They are often accompanied by distor-
tion.
Multi−path—FM
reflective,
making it possible for two signals to reach
your antenna at the same time.
If this
happens, the signals will cancel each oth-
er out, causing a momentary
flutter or
loss of reception.

signals are blocked by buildings, trees, or
other large objects. Increasing the bass
level may reduce static and fluttering.

D Avoid using cassettes with a total play-

these cassettes is thin and could get
stuck or tangled in the cassette player.
CARING FOR YOUR COMPACT DISC PLAYER AND DISCS D Use only compact discs

D Bumpy roads or other vibrations may

AM Fading—AM broadcasts are reflected by the upper atmosphere—especially at night. These reflected signals can interfere with those received directly from the radio sta- tion, causing the radio station to sound alternately strong and weak. Station interference—When a reflected sig- nal and a signal received directly from a radio station are very nearly the same frequency, interfere with each other, making it difficult to hear the broad- cast. Static—AM is easily affected by external sources of electrical noise, such as high tension power lines, lightening, or electri- cal motors. This results in static. CARING FOR YOUR CASSETTE PLAYER AND TAPES For high performance from your cassette player and tapes: Clean the tape head and other parts regu- larly. D A dirty

D Make sure the air intake grilles in front of the windshield are not blocked (by leaves or snow, for example).
D On humid days, do not blow cold air on the windshield. The windshield could fog up because of the difference in air temperature on the inside and outside of the windshield.
D Keep the area under the front seats clear to allow air to circulate through- out the vehicle.

Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane rating or research octane number lower than stated above will cause persistent heavy knocking. If it is severe, this will lead to engine damage. If your engine knocks... If you detect heavy knocking even when using if you hear steady knocking while holding a steady speed on level roads, consult your Toyota dealer. However, now and then, you may notice light knocking for a short time while accel- erating or driving up hills. This is no need of concern. GASOLINES CONTAINING DETERGENT ADDITIVES Toyota recommends use of gasolines that contain detergent additives to avoid build−up of engine deposits. For further details, ask your Toyota dealer or a local gasoline retailer.

IMPROVED GASOLINES The American Automobile Manufacturers Association (AAMA) has developed a specification of improved gasolines. The AAMA specification offers optimal fuel information for better vehicle perfor- mance and better protection of your en- gine. Toyota recommends the use of gasolines that meet the AAMA specification, if avail- able, for improved driveability and emis- sion control system. GASOLINES CONTAINING MTBE Gasolines that contain MTBE (Methyl Tertiary−Butyl Ether) are available in the market. If you use a gasoline mixed with MTBE, make certain that it does not contain more than 15% of MTBE. If the use of gasolines containing MTBE causes poor driveability and/or poor fuel economy, you should discontinue the use of fuels containing MTBE.

Three−way catalytic converters
The three−way catalytic converter is an emission control device installed in the exhaust system. Its purpose is to reduce pollutants in the exhaust gas.
CAUTION
D Keep people and combustible mate- rials away from the exhaust pipe while the engine is running. The exhaust gas is very hot.
D Do not drive, idle or park your ve- hicle over anything that might burn easily such as grass, leaves, paper or rags.

Engine exhaust cautions
CAUTION
D Avoid inhaling the engine exhaust. It contains carbon monoxide, which is a colorless and odorless gas. It can cause unconsciousness or even death.
D Make sure the exhaust system has no holes or loose connections. The system should be checked from time to time. If you hit something, or notice a change in the sound of the the system exhaust, have checked immediately.
D Do not run the engine in a garage or enclosed area except the time needed to drive the vehicle in or out. The exhaust gases cannot escape, making this a particularly dangerous situation.
for
D Do not remain for a long time in a parked vehicle with the engine run- ning. If it is unavoidable, however, do so only in an unconfined area and adjust the heating or cooling system to force outside air into the vehicle.
z If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, take your vehicle in for a check−up as pos- sible. Remember, your Toyota dealer knows your vehicle and its three− way catalytic converter system best. z To ensure that the three−way cata- lytic converter and the entire emis- sion control system operate proper- ly, your vehicle must receive the periodic inspections required by the Toyota Maintenance Schedule. For scheduled maintenance information, the separate ”Owner’s refer Manual Supplement/Maintenance schedule”.

Facts about engine oil consumption FUNCTIONS OF ENGINE OIL Engine oil has the primary functions of lubricating and cooling the inside of the engine, and plays a major role in main- taining the engine in proper working order. ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION It is normal that an engine should con- sume some engine oil during normal engine operation. The causes of oil consumption in a normal engine are as follows. D Oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil is left on the cylinder wall when a pis- ton moves downwards in the cylinder. High negative pressure generated when the vehicle is decelerating sucks some of this oil into the combustion chamber. This oil as well as some part of the oil film left on the cylinder wall is burned by temperature combustion gases during the combustion process. D Oil is also used to lubricate the stems of the intake valves. Some of this oil is sucked into the combustion chamber together with is burned along with the fuel. High tem- perature exhaust gases also burn the oil used to lubricate the exhaust valve stems.

CELICA U
The amount of engine oil consumed de- pends on the viscosity of the oil, the quality of the oil and the conditions the vehicle is driven under. More oil is consumed by high−speed driv- ing and frequent acceleration and decel- eration. A new engine consumes more oil, since its pistons, piston rings and cylinder walls have not become conditioned. When judging the amount of oil con- sumption, note that the oil may become diluted and make it difficult to judge the true level accurately. As an example, if a vehicle is used for repeated short trips, and consumes a nor- mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not show any drop in the oil level at all, even after 1000 km (600 miles) or more. This is because the oil is gradually becoming diluted with fuel or moisture, making it appear that the oil level has not changed. The diluting ingredients evaporate out when the vehicle is then driven at high speeds, as on an expressway, making it appear that oil is excessively consumed after driving at high speeds.
115
IMPORTANCE OF ENGINE OIL LEVEL CHECK One of the most important points in prop- er vehicle maintenance is to keep the en- gine oil at the optimum level so that oil function will not be impaired. Therefore, it is essential that the oil level be checked regularly. Toyota recommends that the oil level be checked every time you refuel the vehicle.
Brake system TANDEM MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE SYSTEM The tandem master cylinder brake system is a hydraulic system with two separate sub−systems. If either sub−system should fail, the other will still work. However, the pedal will be harder to press, and your stopping distance will be longer. Also, the brake system warning light may come on.
NOTICE
CAUTION
Failure to check the oil level regularly could lead to serious engine trouble due to insufficient oil.
Do not drive your vehicle with only a single brake system. Have your brakes fixed immediately.

ANTI−LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
(with ”ABS” warning light)
The anti−lock brake system is designed to
automatically help prevent lock−up of the
wheels during sudden braking or braking
on slippery road surfaces. This assists in
providing directional stability and steering
performance of he vehicle under these cir-
cumstances.
The anti−lock brake system becomes op-
erative after the vehicle has accelerated
to a speed in excess of approximately 10
km/h (6 mph). It stops operating when the
vehicle decelerates
to a speed below
approximately 5 km/h (3 mph).
You may hear a sound

compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
is started. This means that the anti−lock
brake system is in the self check mode,
and does not indicate a malfunction.
Effective way to press the ”ABS” brake pedal: When the anti−lock brake system function is in action, you may feel the brake pedal pulsating and hear a noise. In the anti−lock brake system work for you, just hold the brake pedal down more firmly. Do not pump the brake. This will result in re- duced braking performance.

let
to
The brake pedal pulsation caused by the anti−lock brake system may indicate haz- ardous road surface conditions. Although the anti−lock brake system assists in pro- viding vehicle control, it is still important to drive with all due care, because the anti−lock brake system cannot overcome the laws of physics that act on your ve- hicle: D Braking capability is dependent on tire
friction with the road surface.
D Even though the anti−lock brake sys- tem is operating, a driver cannot main- tain full control on certain slippery road surfaces, when cornering at high speeds, or in violent maneuvers.
D Avoid high speeds on wet roads. The anti−lock brake system cannot elimi- nate the risk of hydroplaning and loss of tire friction.
in
Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle front of you. Compared with vehicles not fitted with an anti−lock brake system, your vehicle may require a longer stopping distance in the following cases: D Driving on rough, gravel or snow−cov-
ered roads.
D Driving with tire chains installed. D Driving on roads where the road sur- face is pitted or has other differences in surface height.

Brake pad wear limit indicators
The brake pad wear limit indicators on your disc brakes give a warning noise when the brake pads are worn to where replacement is required. If you hear a squealing or scraping noise while driving, have the brake pads checked and replaced by your Toyota dealer as soon as possible. Expensive ro- tor damage can result if the pads are not replaced when necessary.
”ABS” warning light This light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the ”ON” position. After a few seconds, the light will go off. If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates a malfunction somewhere in the parts monitored by the warning light system. Contact your Toyota dealer as soon as possible to service the vehicle. D The
light does not come on as de-
scribed above, or remains on.
D The light comes on while driving. Even if the anti−lock brake system should fail, the brake system will still operate conventionally. However, when the ”ABS” warning light is on (and the brake system warning light is off), the anti−lock brake system is not assisting brake performance so lock−up during sudden braking or braking on slippery road surfaces.

Theft prevention labels
(except for Canada)
Your new vehicle carries theft preven-
tion labels which are approximately 56
mm (2.20 in.) by 16 mm (0.63 in.).
The purpose of these labels is to reduce
the incidence of vehicle thefts by facilitat-
ing the tracing and recovery of parts from
stolen vehicles. The label is designed so
that once it is applied to a surface, any
attempt to remove it will result in destroy-
ing the integrity of the label. Transferring
these labels intact from one part to anoth-
er, will be impossible.
