CAMRY ± OUTLINE OF NEW FEATURES27
8. Brakes
The specifications of the front and rear brakes have been changed.
9. Suspension
The front and rear springs, stabilizers, and shock absorbers have been modified to realize excellent stability,
controllability, and riding comfort.
10. Steering
A check valve has been added to the power steering gear box to help reduce kickback.
The rack stroke of the 5S-FE engine model has been changed to 145mm (5.71 in.), which is the same as
in the 1MZ-FE engine.
11. Body
Hood support dampers are used.
Two utility hooks added in the luggage room for the gasoline engine model.
To install the fuel tank in the front area of the luggage compartment, the upper back panel has been cut
out for the 5S-FNE engine model.
A performance rod that joins the tops of the right and left rear suspension strut towers has been adopted
for the 5S-FNE engine model.
The shape of the rear floor pan has been changed to prevent the luggage compartment capacity from being
reduced as a result of the installation of the fuel tank in the luggage compartment for the 5S-FNE engine
model.
12. Seat
The seat cover of the LE grade model has been changed.
Optional driver power seat added for the LE grade model.
A fixed type seat back is used for the rear seat for the 5S-FNE engine model.
13. Seat Belt
2-point NR (Non-Retractor) seat belt is used for the rear center seat for the 5S-FNE engine model.
14. Wireless Door Lock Control
Audio answer back is adopted.
15. Lighting
Along with the adoption of the 4-beam headlights, the electrical circuit of the daytime running light system
has been changed.
16. Air Conditioning
The air inlet mode selector of heater control panel has been changed from the lever type to the push button
type on the CE and LE grade model.
When the air outlet mode is set to the DEF or FOOT / DEF mode, the air inlet mode also changes to the
FRESH mode, has been also added on the CE and LE grade model.
A fully automatic controlled type air conditioning is used on the XLE grade model.
A defroster-linked air conditioning start up control has been continuing to use since the previous models
with air conditioning.
17. SRS Airbag
The inflator of the SRS airbag for the driver has been made more compact and lightweight.
A signal that causes the supply of fuel to be cut off during a frontal collision is output by the airbag sensor
assembly to the ECM for the 5S-FNE engine model.

Fuel Temperature and Pressure Sensor for Fuel Gage
A fuel temperature sensor that detects the temperature in the fuel tank is provided on the tank valve assem-
bly.
A fuel pressure sensor that detects the pressure in the fuel main pipe is provided immediately upstream of
the fuel pressure regulator.
The pressure and the temperature of the fuel are detected by these sensors and are input into the ECM.
These values are then converted by the ECM into the equivalent pressure at 21C to actuate the fuel gauge.
7. Ignition System
Because the spark plugs are susceptible to rust when used with natural gas, corrosion-resistant spark plugs
have been adopted. These spark plugs are the platinum-tipped spark plugs that have their metallic portion
plated.

8. Engine Control System
General
An engine control system based on the 5S-FE engine has been adopted. The knock sensor has been discon-
tinued because natural gas has a high octane value and is less susceptible to knocking.
The engine control system of 5S-FNE and 5S-FE engines are compared below.

Se
quential
A D-type SFI system is used, which indirectly detects
intake air volume by manifold absolute pressure sensor.Sequential
Multiport Fuel
InjectionThe fuel injection system is a sequential multiport fuel
injection system.
Ignition timing is determined by the ECM based on
signals from various sensors.

Fuel Pump ControlFuel pump operation is controlled by signal from the
ECM.Ð
Fuel Cut-Off
Control
The fuel shutoff valves for the fuel tank, fuel pressure
regulator, and delivery pipe are shut off to stop the
supply of fuel when the ignition switch is turned OFF or
during abnormal conditions (such as engine stalling,
SRS airbag deployed, etc.).
Ð
Injector ControlPrevents the frozen stuck of the injector to ensure the
startability of the engine at low temperature.Ð
Oxygen Sensor
and Air Fuel Ratio
Sensor
Heater ControlMaintains the temperature of the oxygen sensor and air
fuel ratio sensor at an appropriate level to increase
accuracy of detection of the oxygen concentration in the
exhaust gas.

EGR Cut-Off
ControlCuts off EGR according to the engine condition to
maintain drivability of the vehicle and durability of the
EGR components.

Evaporative
Emission ControlThe ECM controls the purge flow of evaporative
emissions (HC) in the charcoal canister in accordance
with engine conditions.
Ð
Air Conditioning
Cut-Off ControlBy turning the air conditioning compressor ON or OFF
in accordance with the engine condition, drivability is
maintained.
*3*3
Diagnosis
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM
diagnoses and memorized the failed section.
DiagnosisThe diagnosis system includes a function that detects a
malfunction in the evaporative emission control system.Ð
Fail-Safe
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM stops or
controls the engine according to the data already stored
in memory.

Injector Control
1) General
Fuel clearing control and injector unsticking control have been added to the injector control.
2) Fuel Clearing Control
While the vehicle is being driven at speeds higher than 60 km / h (37.5 mph), and the ignition switch is
turned OFF after the ECM has detected a low temperature condition of less than 25C (77F) of intake
air temperature, the ECM closes the fuel shutoff valve for the delivery pipe. However, instead of immedi-
ately stopping the engine, the fuel clearing control allows the engine to stop on its own after the fuel in
the delivery pipe has been used up. If the engine is running even after 2 seconds or more have elapsed
after the ignition switch has been turned OFF, the EFI relay is turned OFF to stop the engine.
3) Injector Unsticking Control
When the ignition switch is turned ON after executing the fuel clearing control, the injector unsticking
control activates two cylinders at a time to unstick the valve that is frozen stuck onto the valve seat. At
low temperature conditions. At this time, the shutoff valve remains closed so that the injectors will not
inject fuel.
Gas Leak Judgment
If the ECM has detected a gas leak through the signals received from the pressure sensors, the ECM closes
the shutoff valves and flashes the low fuel level warning light.
These functions are canceled by resetting the ECM (by disconnecting the negative [-] terminal of the bat-
tery), which enables the engine to start.
(The ECM should be reset only after performing a gas leak check and making sure that the leak has been
eliminated.)
NOTE: The low fuel level warning light also flashes when the fuel level is extremely low. The flashing
patterns shown below differentiates a gas leak from a low fuel level.
