■ The starter motor does not turn over, the interior lights and

headlights do not turn on, or the horn does not sound. One of the following may be the cause of the problem. ● One or both of the battery terminals may be disconnected. ● The battery may be discharged. (P. 504) Contact your Toyota dealer if the problem cannot be repaired, or if repair procedures are unknown.

501

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P (vehicles with an automatic transmission)

If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake, there may be a problem with the shift lock system (a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift lever). Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately. The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to ensure that the shift lever can be shifted.

Set the parking brake. Turn the engine switch to the ACC or ON position. Depress the brake pedal.

Pry the cover up with a flat- head screwdriver or equiva- lent.

Press the shift lock override button.

The shift lever can be shifted while the button is pressed.

4.0 L V6 (1GR-FE) engine

Positive (+) battery terminal on your vehicle Positive (+) battery terminal on the second vehicle Negative (-) battery terminal on the second vehicle Connect the jumper cable to ground on your vehicle as shown in the illustration.

Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine speed slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5
minutes to recharge the battery of your vehicle. Maintain the engine speed of the second vehicle and start the vehicle’s engine. Once the vehicle’s engine has started, remove the jumper cables in the exact reverse order in which they were con- nected.

Once the engine starts, have the vehicle checked at your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

505

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

■Starting the engine when the battery is discharged (vehicles with an

automatic transmission) The engine cannot be started by push-starting.

■Avoiding a discharged battery

●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is turned

off.

●Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is run- ning at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic, etc.

■Charging the battery

The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer- tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges automatically during driving.)

CAUTION

■Avoiding battery fires or explosions

Observe the following precautions to prevent accidentally igniting the flam- mable gas that may be emitted from the battery. ●Make sure the jumper cable is connected to the correct terminal and that it is not unintentionally in contact with any part other than the intended termi- nal.

●Do not allow the jumper cables to come into contact with the “+” and “-” ter-

minals.

●Do not smoke, use matches, cigarette lighters or allow open flame near

the battery.

506

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

CAUTION

■Battery precautions

The battery contains poisonous and corrosive acidic electrolyte, while related parts contain lead and lead compounds. Observe the following pre- cautions when handling the battery. ●When working with the battery, always wear safety glasses and take care not to allow any battery fluids (acid) to come into contact with skin, clothing or the vehicle body.

●Do not lean over the battery. ●In the event that battery fluid comes into contact with the skin or eyes, immediately wash the affected area with water and seek medical attention. Place a wet sponge or cloth over the affected area until medical attention can be received.

●Always wash your hands after handling the battery support, terminals, and

other battery-related parts.

●Do not allow children near the battery.

NOTICE

■To prevent damaging the vehicle (vehicles with a manual transmission) Do not pull- or push-start the vehicle, because the three-way catalytic con- verter may overheat and become a fire hazard.

■When handling jumper cables

Be careful that the jumper cables do not become tangled in the cooling fan or any of the belts when connecting or disconnecting them.

507

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency If your vehicle overheats

The following may indicate that your vehicle is overheating. ● The needle of the engine coolant temperature gauge (P. 145) enters the red zone or a loss of engine power is experienced. (For example, the vehicle speed does not increase.)

● Steam comes out from under the hood.

Correction procedures

Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the air condition- ing system, and then stop the engine. If you see steam:

Carefully lift the hood after the steam subsides completely.

If you do not see steam: Carefully lift the hood.

the engine has cooled After down sufficiently, the hoses and radiator core (radia- tor) for any leaks.

The coolant level is satisfactory if the reservoir level is between the “FULL” and “LOW” lines on the reservoir.

Reservoir “FULL” “LOW” Radiator cap

508

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

Add coolant if necessary.

Water can be used in an emer- gency if coolant is unavailable.

Start the engine to check that the radiator cooling fan oper- ates and check for coolant leaks from the radiator or hoses. If the fan is not operating:

Stop the engine immediately and contact your Toyota dealer.

If the fan is operating:

Have the vehicle inspected at the nearest Toyota dealer.

CAUTION

■To prevent an accident or injury when inspecting under the hood of

your vehicle ●If steam is seen coming from under the hood, do not open the hood until the steam has subsided. The engine compartment may be very hot, caus- ing serious injuries such as burns.

●Keep hands and clothing (especially a tie, a scarf or a muffler) away from the fan and belts. Failure to do so may cause the hands or clothing to be caught, resulting in serious injury.

●Do not loosen the radiator cap and the coolant reservoir cap while the

engine and radiator are hot. Serious injury, such as burns, may result from hot coolant and steam released under pressure.

509

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

NOTICE

■When adding engine coolant

Wait until the engine has cooled down before adding engine coolant. When adding coolant, do so slowly. Adding cool coolant to a hot engine too quickly can cause damage to the engine.

■To prevent damage to the cooling system

Observe the following precautions: ●Avoid contaminating the coolant with foreign matter (such as sand or dust

etc.).

●Do not use any coolant additives.

510

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency If the vehicle becomes stuck

Carry out the following procedures if the tires spin or the vehicle becomes stuck in mud, dirt, or snow.

Stop the engine. Set the parking brake and put the shift lever in P (vehicles with an automatic transmission) or N (vehicles with a manual transmission). Remove the mud, snow, or sand from around the stuck tire. Place wood, stones or some other material to help provide traction under the tires. Restart the engine. Turn off the VSC. (P. 192, 193) Shift the shift lever to D or R (automatic transmission) or 1
or R (manual transmission) and carefully apply the acceler- ator to free the vehicle.

CAUTION

■When attempting to free a stuck vehicle

If you choose to rock the vehicle back and forth to free it, make sure the sur- rounding area is clear, to avoid striking other vehicles, objects or persons. The vehicle may also lunge forward or back suddenly as it becomes free. Use extreme caution.

■When shifting the shift lever

Vehicles with an automatic transmission: Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. This may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.

511

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

NOTICE

■To avoid damaging the transmission and other components

●Avoid spinning the wheels and do not rev up the engine. ●If the vehicle remains stuck after trying these procedures, the vehicle may

require towing to be freed.

512

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency If your vehicle has to be stopped in an emergency

Only in an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the vehicle in the normal way, stop the vehicle using the following pro- cedure:

Steadily step on the brake pedal with both feet and firmly depress it. Do not pump the brake pedal repeatedly as this will increase the effort required to slow the vehicle. Shift the shift lever to N.

If the shift lever is shifted to N

After slowing down, stop the vehicle in a safe place by the road. Stop the engine.

If the shift lever cannot be shifted to N

Keep depressing the brake pedal with both feet to reduce vehicle speed as much as possible.

Stop the engine by turning the engine switch the ACC position.

Stop the vehicle in a safe place by the road.

513

5-2. Steps to take in an emergency

CAUTION

■If the engine has to be turned off while driving

●Power assist for the brakes and steering wheel will be lost, making the brake pedal harder to depress and the steering wheel heavier to turn. Decelerate as much as possible before turning off the engine.

●Never attempt to remove the key, as doing so will lock the steering wheel.

■ Engine oil selection “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Use Toyota approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to satisfy the following grade and viscosity. Oil grade: ILSAC GF-5 multigrade engine oil Recommended viscosity:

2.7 L 4-cylinder (2TR-FE) engine SAE 0W-20

SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for good fuel economy and good starting in cold weather. If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE 5W-20 oil may be used. However, it must be replaced with SAE 0W-20 at the next oil change.

Outside temperature

Oil viscosity (0W-20 is explained here as an example): ● The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for easier starting of the engine in cold weather.

● The 20 in 0W-20 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when the oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions.

6-1. Specifications Fuel information

Your vehicle must use only unleaded gasoline. Select octane rating 87 (Research Octane Number 91) or higher. Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane rating lower than 87 may result in engine knocking. Persistent knocking can lead to engine damage. At minimum, the gasoline you use should meet the specifications of ASTM D4814 in the U.S.A..

■Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline

To help prevent incorrect fueling, your Toyota has a fuel tank opening that only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.

■If your engine knocks

●Consult your Toyota dealer. ●You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time while accelerating or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for concern.

■Gasoline quality

In very few cases, driveability problems may be caused by the brand of gasoline you are using. If driveability problems persist, try changing the brand of gasoline. If this does not correct the problem, consult your Toyota dealer.

■Gasoline quality standards

●Automotive manufacturers in the US, Europe and Japan have developed a specification for fuel quality called World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) that is expected to be applied worldwide.

●The WWFC consists of four categories that are based on required

emission levels. In the US, category 4 has been adopted.

●The WWFC improves air quality by lowering emissions in vehicle fleets,

and customer satisfaction through better performance.

■Toyota recommends the use of gasoline containing detergent additives ●Toyota recommends the use of gasoline that contains detergent additives

to avoid build-up of engine deposits.

●All gasoline sold in the U.S. contains minimum detergent additives to clean and/or keep clean intake systems, per EPA’s lowest additives concentration program.

●Toyota strongly recommends the use of Top Tier Detergent Gasoline. For more information on Top Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list of marketers, please go to the official website www.toptiergas.com.

■Toyota recommends the use of cleaner burning gasoline

Cleaner burning gasoline, including reformulated gasoline that contains oxygenates such as ethanol or MTBE (Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether) is available in many areas. Toyota recommends the use of cleaner burning gasoline and appropriately blended reformulated gasoline. These types of gasoline provide excellent vehicle performance, reduce vehicle emissions and improve air quality.

■Toyota does not recommend blended gasoline

DO NOT use gasoline containing more than 15% ethanol.

(30% ethanol)

(50% ethanol)

(85% ethanol)

●Use only gasoline containing up to 15%

ethanol. DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline that could contain more than 15% etha- nol, including from any pump labeled E30, E50, E85 (which are only some examples of fuel containing more than 15% ethanol).

●If you use gasohol in your Toyota, be sure that it has an octane rating no

lower than 87.

●Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methanol.

538

6-1. Specifications

■Toyota does not recommend gasoline containing MMT

Some gasoline contains octane enhancing additive called MMT (Methylcyclopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl). Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline that contains MMT. If fuel containing MMT is used, your emission control system may be adversely affected. The malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster may come on. If this happens, contact your Toyota dealer for service.

NOTICE

■Notice on fuel quality

●Do not use improper fuels.

If improper fuels are used the engine will be damaged.

●Do not use leaded gasoline.

Leaded gasoline can cause damage to your vehicle’s three-way catalytic converters causing the emission control system to malfunction.

●Do not use gasohol other than that stated here.

Other gasohol may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems.

●Using unleaded gasoline with an octane number or rating lower than the

level previously stated will cause persistent heavy knocking. At worst, this will lead to engine damage.

■Fuel-related poor driveability

If after using a different type of fuel, poor driveability is encountered (poor hot starting, vaporization, engine knocking, etc.), discontinue the use of that type of fuel.

■When refueling with gasohol Take care not to spill gasohol. It can damage your vehicle’s paint.
