The master key works in every lock.
The subkey will not work in the trunk.
To protect things locked in the trunk when
you have your vehicle parked, leave the
subkey with the attendant.
Since the doors and trunk lid can be
locked without a key, you should always
carry a spare master key in case you acci-
dentally lock your keys inside the vehicle.Keep the key number plate in a safe
place such as your wallet, not in the
vehicle.
If you should lose your keys or 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.

1. To open the fuel filler door, pull the
lever up.
CAUTION!
Do not smoke, cause sparks or al-
low open flames when refuelling.
The fumes are flammable.
When opening the cap, do not re-
move the cap quickly. In hot
weather, fuel under pressure
could cause injury by spraying
out of the filler neck if the cap is
suddenly removed.
2. To remove the fuel tank cap, turn
the cap slowly counterclockwise, then
pause slightly before removing it. Af-
ter removing the cap, hang it on the
cap hanger.
It is not unusual to hear a slight swoosh
when the cap is opened. When installing,
turn the cap clockwise till you hear a click.
CAUTION!
Make sure the cap is tightened se-
curely to prevent fuel spillage in
case of an accident.
Use only a genuine Toyota fuel
tank cap for replacement. It has a
built in check valve to reduce fuel
tank vacuum.

To open the sun roof, push the switch
on the SLIDEº side. Pushing on the
opposite side will close it. To tilt up the
rear end of the sun roof, push the
switch on the UPº side. Pushing on
the opposite side will lower it.
The ignition key must be in the ONº
position.
The sun roof will move while the switch is
being pushed and stop when released.
However, as a precaution when closing, it
stops at the three-quarters closed posi-
tion before fully closing. Therefore, re-
lease the switch and then push it again to
close it completely.
You may open the sun roof to any desired
position.
CAUTION!
To avoid serious personal injury, you
must do the following.
While the vehicle is moving, always
keep the head, hands and other
parts of the body of all occupants
away from the roof opening. Other-
wise, you could be seriously injured
if the vehicle stops suddenly or if the
vehicle is involved in an accident.
Always make sure nobody places
his/her head, hands and other
parts of the body in the roof open-
ing before you close the roof. If
someone's neck, head or hands
gets caught in the closing roof, it
could result in a serious injury.
When anyone closes the roof, first
make sure it is safe to do so.
Never leave small children alone in
the vehicle, especially with the igni -
tion key still inserted. They could
use the sun roof switches and get
trapped in the roof opening. Unat-
tended children can become in -
volved in serious accidents.
Never sit on top of the vehicle
around the roof opening.

144You can be confident that your Toyota
dealer's service department performs the
best job to meet the maintenance require-
ments on your vehicleÐreliably and eco-
nomically.
Your copy of the repair order is proof that
all required maintenance has been per-
formed for warranty coverage. And if any
problems should arise with your vehicle
while under warranty, your Toyota dealer
will promptly take care of it. Again, be sure
to keep a copy of the repair order for any
service performed on your Toyota.
What about do- it- yourself mainte-
nance?
Many of the maintenance items are easy
to do yourself if you have a little mechani-
cal ability and a few basic automotive
tools. Simple instructions for how to per-
form them are presented in Part 7.
If you are a skilled do-it-yourself me-
chanic, the Toyota service manuals are
recommended. Please be aware that do-
it-yourself maintenance can affect your
warranty coverage. See Owner's Guide,
Owner 's Manual Supplement or Warranty
Booklet for the details.Listed below are the general maintenance
items that should be performed as fre-
quently as specified. In addition to check-
ing the items listed, if you notice any un-
usual noise, smell or vibration, you should
investigate the cause or take your vehicle
to your Toyota dealer or a qualified service
shop immediately. It is recommended
that any problem you notice be brought to
the attention of your dealer or the qualified
service shop for their advice.
Make these checks only where
adequate ventilation can be obtained
if you run the engine.CAUTION
