Garage door opener
The garage door opener is manufac-
tured under license from HomeLink
and can be programmed to operate ga-
rage doors, estate gates, security light-
ing, etc.
(a) Programming HomeLink
The HomeLink has 3 buttons and can
be programmed to operate 3 separate
devices.
NOTICE
Unplug the garage or gate device dur-
ing programming to prevent possible
motor burn−up.

Prepare the HomeLink for programming
by erasing all codes or the memorized
date programmed by the former owner.
Follow the procedure in “(c) Erasing the
garage door opener memory”.
1. Decide which one of the 3 buttons you
want to program. Push and hold down
the button for about 20 seconds until
the indicator light begins to flash.
While holding this button down, follow
steps 2 and 3.
2. Bring the hand held garage door open-
er to within about 25 mm (1 in.) of the
button being programmed and push the
button on the hand held garage door
opener. The signal from the hand held
garage door opener is sent to the ve-
hicle’s opener.
3. When the frequency and code is regis-
tered, the indicator light flashers rapid-
ly. At this point, your can release both
buttons.
4. To program the remaining buttons, re-
peat steps 1 through 3.NOTICE
Canada only:
As your hand held garage door open-
er may automatically stop sending the
signal during programming, press and
re−press the hand held garage door
opener button every two seconds dur-
ing steps 1 through 4 above until the
frequency and code is registered.
If you want to replace an existing program
with a new program, select the button you
want to program. Follow the procedure
from step 1.
If the transmitter has a rolling code
feature, it is necessary to program the
in−garage receiver after programming
HomeLink.
1. Locate the training or learning but-
ton on the in−garage receiver and
push and release this button. Loca-
tion of the button may vary among
garage door opener manufacturers.
2. Firmly push and release the trained
HomeLink button 2 times (some ga-
rage door manufacturers may require
you to push the HomeLink button
up to 3 times) to complete the pro-
cess.The garage door should now operate
when the HomeLink button is pushed.
Do not use the HomeLink universal
transmitter with any garage door opener
that lacks the safety stop and reverse
feature as required by Federal Safety
Standards. This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before April 1,
1982.
CAUTION
When programming or operating the
garage door opener, make sure there
is no one around the moving door.
(b) Operating the garage door opener
Push the appropriate button to activate the
garage door opener. The indicator light
comes on. The garage door opener contin-
ues to send the signal as long as the
button is pushed (up to 20 seconds).
(c) Erasing the garage door opener
memory
Push and hold down the 2 outside buttons
for about 20 seconds until the indicator
light flashes. All memorized data will be
erased.

Break−in period
Drive gently and avoid high speeds.
Your vehicle does not need an elaborate
break−in. But following a few simple tips
for the first 1600 km (1000 miles) can add
to the future economy and long life of
your vehicle:
Do not drive over 88 km/h (55 mph).
Run the engine at moderate speed be-
tween 2000 and 4000 rpm.
Avoid full−throttle starts.
Try to avoid hard stops during the first
300 km (200 miles).
Do not drive for a long time at any
single speed, either fast or slow.
Do not tow a trailer during the first 800
km (500 miles).
Fuel
FUEL TYPE
Your new vehicle must use only un-
leaded gasoline.
To help prevent gas station mix−ups, your
Toyota has a smaller fuel tank opening.
The special nozzle on pumps with un-
leaded fuel will fit it, but the larger stan-
dard nozzle on pumps with leaded gas will
not.
At a minimum, the gasoline you use
should meet the specifications of ASTM
D4814 in the U.S.A. and CGSB 3.5−M93
in Canada.
NOTICE
Do not use leaded gasoline. Use of
leaded gasoline will cause the three−
way catalytic converter to lose its ef-
fectiveness and the emission control
system to function improperly. Also,
this can increase maintenance costs.
OCTANE RATING
Select Octane Rating 87 (Research
Octane Number 91) or higher. For
improved vehicle performance, the use
of premium unleaded gasoline with an
Octane Rating of 91 (Research Octane
Number 96) or higher is recommended.
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.

Brake system
The tandem master cylinder brake system
is a hydraulic system with two separate
sub−systems. If either sub−system should
fail, the other will still work. However, the
pedal will be harder to press, and your
stopping distance will be longer. Also, the
brake system warning light may come on.
CAUTION
Do not drive your vehicle with only a
single brake system. Have your
brakes fixed immediately.
BRAKE BOOSTER
The brake booster uses engine vacuum to
power−assist the brakes. If the engine
should quit while you are driving, you can
bring the vehicle to a stop with normal
pedal pressure. There is enough reserved
vacuum for one or two stops—but no
more!
CAUTION
Do not pump the brake pedal if the
engine stalls. Each push on the
pedal uses up your reserved vacu-
um.
Even if the power assist is com-
pletely lost, the brakes will still
work. But you will have to push the
pedal hard, much harder than nor-
mal. And your braking distance will
be longer.
ANTI−LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (with
“ABS” warning light)
The anti−lock brake system is designed
to help prevent lock−up of the wheels
during a sudden braking or braking on
slippery road surfaces. This assists in
providing directional stability and steer-
ing performance of the vehicle under
these circumstances.
Effective way to press the ABS brake
pedal: When the anti−lock brake system
function is in action, you may feel the
brake pedal pulsating and hear a noise.
In this situation, to let the anti−lock
brake system work for you, just hold the
brake pedal down more firmly. Do not
pump the brake in a panic stop. This
will result in reduced braking performan-
ce.
The anti−lock brake system becomes op-
erative after the vehicle has accelerated
to a speed in excess of approximately 10
km/h (6 mph). It stops operating when the
vehicle decelerates to a speed below
approximately 5 km/h (3 mph).
Depressing the brake pedal on slippery
road surfaces such as on the manhole
cover, the steel plate under the construc-
tion, joints in the bridge, etc. on a rainy
day tends to activate the anti−lock brake
system.
You may hear a click or motor sound in
the engine compartment for a few seconds
when the engine is started or just after
the vehicle is started. This means that the
anti−lock brake system is in the self−
check mode, and does not indicate a mal-
function.
