If the fuel pump shut
−off system has acti-
vated, you can turn on the fuel pump
shut −off system with the reset switch on
the impact detection sensor. To turn on
the fuel pump and reset the shut −off
switch, push the reset switch for longer
than one second with the vehicle parked
on a level surface.
CAUTION
 Inspect the ground under the ve-
hicle before resetting the fuel
pump shut −off system. If you
find liquid leakage on the
ground, it is probable that the
fuel system has been damaged
and is in need of repair. In this
case, do not reset the fuel pumpshut −off system.
 Do not strike or kick the impact
detection sensor. The fuel pumpshut −off system may activate,
shutting off the motor and plac-
ing the vehicle in a position to
be involved in an unexpected ac-
cident.
The fuel pump shut −off system is de-
signed to activate in a collision which may
cause a large amount of vehicle deforma-
tion. It does not operate in a small im-
pact. Rear console box

OCTANE RATING
Select Octane Rating 91 (Research Oc-
tane Number 96) or higher for optimum
engine performance. However, if such
premium type cannot be obtained, you
may temporarily use unleaded gasoline
with an Octane Rating as low as 87
(Research Octane Number 91).
Use of unleaded gasoline with an octane
rating or research octane number lower
than stated above will cause persistent
heavy knocking. If it is severe, this will
lead to engine damage.
If your engine knocks...
If you detect heavy knocking even when
using the recommended fuel, or if you
hear steady knocking while holding a
steady speed on level roads, consult your
Toyota dealer.
However, now and then, you may notice
light knocking for a short time while accel-
erating or driving up hills. This is no need
of concern.
GASOLINE CONTAINING DETERGENT
ADDITIVES
Toyota recommends the use of gasoline
that contains detergent additives to
avoid build
−up of engine deposits.
However, all gasoline sold in the U.S.
contains detergent additives to keep clean
and/or clean intake systems.
QUALITY GASOLINE
Automotive manufacturers in the U.S.,
Europe and Japan have developed a
specification for quality fuel named
World −Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) that
is expected to be applied world wide.
The WWFC consists of three categories
that depend on required emission lev-
els. In the U.S., category 3 has been
adopted. The WWFC improves air quali-
ty by providing for better emissions in
vehicle fleets, and customer satisfaction
through better vehicle performance.
CLEANER BURNING GASOLINE
Cleaner burning gasoline, including re-
formulated gasoline that contains oxy-
genates such as ethanol or MTBE is
available in many areas. Toyota recommends the use of cleaner
burning gasoline and appropriately blended
reformulated gasoline. These types of gas-
oline provide excellent vehicle perfor-
mance, reduce vehicle emissions, and im-
prove air quality.
OXYGENATES IN GASOLINE
Toyota allows the use of oxygenate
blended gasoline where the oxygenate
content is up to 10% ethanol or 15%
MTBE. If you use gasohol in your Toyota,
be sure that it has an octane rating no low-
er than 87.
Toyota does not recommend the use of
gasoline containing methanol.
SULFUR IN GASOLINE
If your vehicle is certified to California
Emission Regulation, the vehicle is de-
signed to operate on California cleaner
burning gasoline (CBG) that contains
lower sulfur. If you cannot use Califor-
nia CBG, your emission control system
may suffer damage and turn on the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp.
If the malfunction is caused by the type
of fuel used, repairs may not be covered
by your warranty.

To ensure that the three −way cata-
lytic converter and the entire emis-
sion control system operate proper-
ly, your vehicle must receive the
periodic inspections required by the
Toyota Maintenance Schedule. For
scheduled maintenance information,
refer to the ”Scheduled Maintenance
Guide” or ”Owner ’s Manual Supple-
ment”.
Engine exhaust cautions
CAUTION
Avoid inhaling the engine ex-
haust. It contains carbon monox-
ide, which is a colorless and
odorless gas. It can cause un-
consciousness or even death.
Make sure the exhaust system
has no holes or loose connec-
tions. The system should be
checked from time to time. If you
hit something, or notice a
change in the sound of the ex-
haust, have the system checked
immediately.
Do not run the engine in a ga-
rage or enclosed area except for
the time needed to drive the ve-
hicle in or out. The exhaust
gases cannot escape, making
this a particularly dangerous situ-
ation.
Do not remain for a long time in
a parked vehicle with the engine
running. If it is unavoidable, how-
ever, do so only in an uncon-
fined area and adjust the heating
or cooling system to force out-
side air into the vehicle.

’01 L/C U (L/O 0008)181
Keep the back door and quarter
windows closed while driving. An
open or unsealed back door and
quarter windows may cause ex-
haust gases to be drawn into the
vehicle.
To allow proper operation of your
vehicle’s ventilation system, keep
the inlet grilles in front of the
windshield clear of snow, leaves,
or other obstructions.
If you smell exhaust fumes in
the vehicle, drive with the win-
dows open and the back door
closed. Have the cause immedi-
ately located and corrected.FUNCTIONS OF ENGINE OIL
Engine oil has the primary functions of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the
engine, and plays a major role in main-
taining the engine in proper working order.
ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
It is normal that an engine should con-
sume some engine oil during normal
engine operation. The causes of oil
consumption in a normal engine are as
follows.
Oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston
rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil
is left on the cylinder wall when a pis-
ton moves downwards in the cylinder.
High negative pressure generated when
the vehicle is decelerating sucks some
of this oil into the combustion chamber.
This oil as well as some part of the oil
film left on the cylinder wall is burned
by the high temperature combustion
gases during the combustion process.
Oil is also used to lubricate the stems
of the intake valves. Some of this oil
is sucked into the combustion chamber
together with the intake air and is
burned along with the fuel. High tem-
perature exhaust gases also burn the
oil used to lubricate the exhaust valve
stems.
The amount of engine oil consumed de-
pends on the viscosity of the oil, the
quality of the oil and the conditions the
vehicle is driven under.
More oil is consumed by high −speed driv-
ing and frequent acceleration and decel-
eration.
A new engine consumes more oil, since
its pistons, piston rings and cylinder walls
have not become conditioned.
When judging the amount of oil con-
sumption, note that the oil may become
diluted and make it difficult to judge
the true level accurately.
