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.

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.
You never need an appointment to use Express Lube at a
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.
More than 500 Toyota dealerships now offer Express Lube
service. Call (800) 331- 4331 for the Express Lube location
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.

If you plan to perform your own maintenance or repairs on your
Toyota, be sure to check out your nearby Toyota Parts Center
(TPC). More than 500 Toyota dealerships now have a TPC,
which is an in- dealership parts store offering a wide selection
of automotive products. All TPCs feature a complete line of
Genuine Toyota maintenance parts, accessories and car- care
products for “do- it- yourselfers.”
In addition to Toyota maintenance and repair products, TPCs
offer free technical advice to Toyota owners who want to service
their own vehicles. You’ ll also find model- specific parts applica-
tion guides and how- to brochures covering most common
maintenance jobs. Both are provided to customers free of charge.
Toyota Parts Centers are open during regular dealership hours;
many also have extended evening and weekend hours. If you’re
a do- it- yourselfer, stop by and experience the service, selection
and value offered by your local TPC.

Toyota Service Manuals
TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT15
If you’ ll be doing some of your own maintenance and repair work
on your vehicle, a Toyota service manual will be one of your most
valuable tools. Toyota offers three types of manuals to assist
do- it- yourselfers. To order any of the following manuals, call
Toyota’s service publications department at (800) 622- 2033.
Vehicle Repair Manual
This is the same manual used by professional technicians in Toyota
dealerships throughout the United States. It is fully illustrated and
includes maintenance and repair procedures for all vehicle mechan-
ical systems. It also includes instructions for vehicle tune- ups.
Electrical Systems Manual
This manual provides detailed wiring diagrams for each electri-
cal system in your vehicle, along with troubleshooting tips and
repair procedures.
Automatic Transmission/Transaxle Repair Manual
This manual includes complete procedures for overhauling the
automatic transmission/transaxle of your vehicle.For information on basic do- it- yourself maintenance items,
see the “Vehicle Maintenance and Care” and “Do- It-
Yourself Maintenance” sections of your
Owner’s Manual.

Extended Service Coverage
Toyota vehicle service agreements provide protection against
unexpected repairs for mechanical breakdown beyond the fac-
tory warranty.
1They also protect you from increases in the cost
of covered repairs. In addition, many plans include benefits
such as towing, substitute transportation and travel protection
with lodging and meals.
Because they are factory- backed, Toyota service agreements are
accepted at all Toyota dealerships in the United States and
Canada. That means repairs are made only by factory- trained
technicians using Genuine Toyota Parts.
Toyota Financial Services offers several levels of service agree-
ment coverage, each with a variety of time and mileage options.
2
Your Toyota dealer can help you select the coverage that best
meets your needs.
Pre-Paid Maintenance
An excellent way to make sure your Toyota receives the recom-
mended maintenance — and to protect yourself from increases
in vehicle service costs — is to pay for maintenance services in
advance.
Toyota Auto Care pre- paid maintenance plans are available
for both new and used vehicles. Benefits include oil- and- filter
changes, lubrication of key chassis parts and a 19- point vehicle
inspection at each service interval. In addition, you receive
24- hour roadside assistance, timed service reminders and a
computerized history of each service visit. The Premium Plan
(available for new vehicles) also includes tire rotations and
factory- recommended maintenance at service intervals of
15,000, 30,000 and 45,000 miles.
Toyota Auto Care plans offer two coverage levels as well as
several options for service intervals, time and mileage. Ask your
Toyota dealer to help you select the options that are best for you.
1Vehicle service agreements are offered by Toyota Motor Insurance Services, Inc., dba Toyota
Motor Services Company in certain states. In Florida, offered by Toyota Motor Insurance
Company.
