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. When stowing luggage or cargo in the ve-
hicle, observe the following:
Put luggage or cargo in the vehicle
when at all possible. Be sure all itemsare secured in place.
Be careful to keep the vehicle bal-anced. Locating the weight as far
forward as possible helps maintainbalance.
For better fuel economy, do not carry
unneeded weight.
To prevent luggage or packages
from sliding forward during brak-
ing, do not stack anything in the
enlarged trunk room. Keep lug-
gage or packages low, as close to
the floor as possible.
Never allow anyone to ride in the enlarged trunk room. It is not de-
signed for passengers. They
should ride in their seats with their
seat belts properly fastened.
Otherwise, they are much more
likely to suffer serious bodily inju-
ry, in the event of sudden braking
or a collision.
