OUTLINE OF NEW FEATURES
The Camry is a high-quality family sedan with advanced technology and sporty performance. The following
changes are made for the 1999 model year.
1. Model Line-Up
The following models have been added.
SXV20L-AEMDKK, SXV20L-AEPDKK
MCV20L-CEMNKA, MCV20L-AEPDKK
The following models have been discontinued.
SXV20L-CEMDKK, SXV20L-CEPDKK, SXV20L-CEMNKK, SXV20L-CEPNKK
MCV20L-CEMDKA, MCV20L-CEPDKK, MCV20L-CEPGKK
2. Engine
ORVR (On-board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system has been adopted on the 1MZ-FE engine models.
The basic construction and operation of this system are the same as in the '98 Camry with 5S-FE Engine.
The direction of the rotation of the radiator cooling fan of the 1MZ-FE engine models has been reversed.
A service port has been provided for inspecting the evaporative emission control system on all models.
For details, see the General 1999 Features section.
3. Axles
The rear axle bearing specifications have been partially changed.
4. Brakes
The brake specifications have been partially changed.
5. Body
The attachment method for the front bumper reinforcement has been changed.
The center pillar garnish extends into the vehicle's interior to provide its effectiveness in absorbing the
energy in case the occupant's head collides against the pillar.
A reinforcement has been added to the rocker panel to effectively dissipate the impact energy during a
frontal collision, thus minimizing the deformation of the cabin.
The front, center and rear pillar garnishes provide an impact-absorbing structure consisting of internal ribs
that dampen the impact.
6. Seat
A seat fabric has been changed on the CE grade models to improve the seat appearance.
7. Seat Belt
The shape of the tongue plate has been changed to help improve the usability of the seat belt.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE LOGS21 Brake Linings/Drums and Brake Pads/Discs
Check the brake linings (shoes) and drums for scoring, burning,
fluid leakage, broken parts and excessive wear. Check the pads for
excessive wear and the discs for runout, excessive wear and fluid
leakage. A qualified technician should perform these inspections.
Charcoal Canister (CA, MA and NY vehicles)
Check for internal damage and clogging. If necessary, clean
with compressed air or replace. A qualified technician should
perform these operations.
Differential Oil
Inspect each component for signs of leakage. If you discover any
leakage, have it repaired by a qualified technician immediately.
Drive Belts
Inspect for cracks, excessive wear and oiliness. Check the belt ten-
sion and adjust if necessary. Replace the belts if they are damaged.
Drive Shaft Boots
Check the drive shaft boots and clamps for cracks, deteriora-
tion and damage. Replace any damaged parts and, if necessary,
repack the grease. Selected models also require periodic inspec-
tion of the flange bolts for proper torque. A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Engine Air Filter
Check for damage, excessive wear and oiliness. Replace if necessary.
Engine Coolant
Drain and flush the cooling system and refill with an ethylene-
glycol type coolant. A qualified technician should perform
this operation.
Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Change the oil filter and replace the engine oil with API SH,
Energy- Conserving II multigrade or ILSAC multigrade oil.
For recommended viscosity, refer to your
Owner’s Manual.

PRECAUTION
1. DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN AN ENCLOSED
AREA OR WEAR EYE PROTECTION
2. ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION
3. BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN
YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN
If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin.
(a) Wash the area with lots of cool water.
CAUTION:
Do not rub your eyes or skin.
(b) Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin.
(c) Go immediately to a physician or hospital for professional
treatment.
4. NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED
FLAME
5. BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER AND NOT
TO APPLY PHYSICAL SHOCKS TO IT
6. DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT
ENOUGH REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERATION SYS-
TEM
If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system oil lu-
brication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur,
so that care to avoid this, necessary care should be taken.
7. DO NOT OPEN PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE
COMPRESSOR IS OPERATE
If the high pressure valve is opened, refrigerant flows in the re-
verse direction and could cause the charging cylinder to rup-
ture, so open and close the only low pressure valve.
8. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH
REFRIGERANT
If refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insuffi-
cient cooling, poor fuel economy, engine overheating etc.
