INTRODUCTION2
The Importance of Scheduled Maintenance
egular maintenance is essential to obtaining the highest
level of performance, safety and reliability from your
Toyota. It can also enhance your vehicle’s resale value.
This booklet is designed to help you make sure your vehicle
receives proper and timely maintenance. It includes factory-
recommended maintenance guidelines along with information
on the extensive maintenance and repair support available
through Toyota and your dealership. You’ ll also find space to
document your vehicle’s maintenance history.
In addition to scheduled maintenance, your Toyota requires
ongoing general maintenance such as fluid checks and periodic
visual inspections. These procedures are explained under the
“ General Maintenance ” heading in the “ Vehicle Maintenance
and Care ” section of the
Owner’s Manual. Be sure to follow
these guidelines carefully to ensure the most trouble- free
operation of your vehicle.With proper maintenance and care, your vehicle will last
longer and deliver more dependable, economical performance.
Follow this booklet’s recommendations and you’ ll enjoy maxi-
mum reliability and peace of mind from your Toyota for many
years to come.

Maintenance & Toyota Warranty Coverage
Maintaining your vehicle according to the recommendations in
this booklet is required to ensure that your warranty coverage
remains intact. You should keep detailed records of vehicle
maintenance, including date of service, mileage at time of ser-
vice and a description of service and/or parts installation
performed. The scheduled maintenance log in this booklet is a
good place to record this information. If you sell your vehicle, be
sure to give your maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim solely because you do
not have records to show that you maintained your vehicle.
However, damage or failures caused by lack of proper mainte-
nance are not covered under warranty.
Maintenance and repair services may be performed by you or
by any automotive service provider you choose. Toyota will
not deny a warranty claim solely because you used a service
provider other than a Toyota dealership for maintenance and
repairs. However, damage or failures caused by improper mainte-
nance or repairs are not covered under warranty.Your dealer may recommend more frequent maintenance intervals
or more maintenance services than those listed in the scheduled
maintenance log. These additional services are not required to
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask your dealer for an expla-
nation of any recommended maintenance not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota warranty coverages,
see the booklet entitled
2001 Owner’s Warranty
Information
in your vehicle’s glove box.

TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT
Toyota Dealership Service

To ensure that your vehicle receives first- quality service and
factory- authorized parts, Toyota recommends having mainte-
nance performed by an authorized Toyota dealership.
Toyota dealership technicians are experts in the maintenance and
repair of Toyota vehicles. They stay current on the latest service
information through Toyota technical bulletins, service publica-
tions and training courses. Many are also certified through the
Toyota Certified Technician Program, which requires completion
of Toyota’s specialized, state- of- the- art training as well as rigorous
exams through both Toyota and the National Institute for
Automotive Service Excellence. Feel free to ask any Toyota
dealership to show you its technicians’ credentials.
You can be confident you’re getting the best possible service for
your vehicle when you take it to a Toyota dealership. Why trust
your investment to anything but a team of highly qualified
Toyota specialists?

Toyota Express Lube
TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT5
With Toyota Express Lube, you get the convenience of a quick-
lube shop
and the quality and expertise you count on when you
go to a Toyota dealership. You also get the Express Lube guaran-
tee: in 29 minutes or less from the time of write- up, a complete
oil- and- filter change using Genuine Toyota Parts along with a
multi- point inspection, or the next one is free.

Toyota dealership. You’ ll be waited on promptly and your
oil- and- filter change will be done while you wait. Express Lube
also delivers outstanding value, since the service is priced very
competitively with franchised quick- lube centers.

nearest you.

Genuine Toyota Parts & Accessories

To safeguard the quality, reliability and value of your vehicle,
Toyota recommends using only Genuine Toyota Parts for
maintenance and repairs. Like all Toyota products, Genuine
Toyota Parts are built to the highest standards of quality and
performance. They are also designed to fit your vehicle’s exact
specifications.
Your Toyota dealership maintains an extensive inventory of
Genuine Toyota Parts to meet your vehicle service needs. And
because it is linked electronically to Toyota’s Parts Distribution
Centers, the dealership has quick access to any parts it may
not have in stock.
When installed by a Toyota dealership, Genuine Toyota Parts
(with the exception of batteries) are warranted for 12 months
from the date of installation, regardless of mileage, or the re-
mainder of any applicable New Vehicle Limited Warranty,
whichever provides greater coverage. Selected Toyota replace-
ment parts are covered by a lifetime warranty (see page 8).
Non- Genuine Toyota Parts — and any damage or failures result-
ing from their use — are not covered by any Toyota warranty.For all your maintenance and repair needs, insist on the quality
and peace of mind you only get with Genuine Toyota Parts.

Genuine Toyota Parts & Accessories
TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT7
When you want to personalize your Toyota vehicle, be sure
to do it without sacrificing Toyota quality and performance.
How? By choosing Genuine Toyota Accessories.
Only Genuine Toyota Accessories are designed and manufac-
tured specifically for Toyota vehicles. In addition, they undergo
rigorous testing to ensure first- rate quality, precise fit and long-
term durability. Aftermarket accessories don’ t always meet
these same high standards.
The quality of Genuine Toyota Accessories is also backed by
the integrity of a Toyota warranty. Coverage is for 12 months
from date of purchase, regardless of mileage. If the accessory is
installed at the time of new- vehicle purchase, coverage is extend-
ed to 36 months/36,000 miles. See your dealer for details. And
remember that Genuine Toyota Accessories can only be pur-
chased from an authorized Toyota dealership.
