72 1-5. Refueling
CAUTION
nRefueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
l Touch the vehicle or some other metal surface to discharge any static
electricity.
Sparks resulting from discharging static electricity may cause the fuel
vapors to ignite.
l Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap.
In hot weather, pressurized fuel may spray out of the filler neck and cause
injury.
l Do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their
bodies to come close to an open fuel tank.
l Do not inhale vaporized fuel.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.
l Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
l Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically
charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition
hazard.
n When replacing the fuel tank cap
Do not use anything but a genuine Toyota fuel tank cap designed for your
vehicle. Doing so may cause a fire or other incident which may result in
death or serious injury.

2-5. Driving information
Cargo and luggage
Capacity and distribution
Cargo capacity depends on the total weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Total load capacity) − (T
otal weight of occupants)
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit—
(1) Locate the statement “The combined
weight of occupants and
cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your vehicle’s
placard.
(2) Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding
in your vehicle.
(3)Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX
kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and lug -
gage load capacity.
For example, if the “XXX” amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will
be
five 150 lb passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available
cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 − 750 (5 × 150)
= 650 lbs.)
(5) Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the
available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4.
Take notice of the following information about storage precau-
tions, cargo capacity and load.
l Stow cargo and luggage in the luggage compartment whenever
possible.
l Be
sure all items are secured in place.
lBe
careful to keep the vehicle level. Placing the weight as far for -
ward as possible helps maintain vehicle balance.
l For better fuel eco
nomy, do not carry unnecessary weight.

4-2. Maintenance
Emission inspection and maintenance (I/M) programs
Some states have vehicle emission inspection programs which
include OBD (On Board Diagnostics) checks. The OBD system moni
-
tors the operation of th e emissi
on control system.
nIf the malfunction indicator lamp comes on
The OBD system determines that a
problem exists somewhere
in the emission control system. Your vehicle may not pass the I/
M test and may need to be repaired. Contact your Toyota dealer
to service the vehicle.
n Y
our vehicle may not pass the I/M test:
lWhen
the battery is disconnected or discharged
Readiness codes that are se t dur
ing ordinary driving are
erased.
Also, depending on your driving habits, the readiness codes
ma
y not be completely set.
l When
the fuel tank cap is loose
The malfunction indicator lamp comes on as a temporary mal -
function and your vehicle may not pass the I/M test.
n When th
e malfunction indicator lamp goes off after several
driving trips
The error code in the OBD system
will not be cleared unless the
vehicle is driven 40 or more times.
n If
your vehicle does not pass the I/M test
Contact your Toyota dealer to prepare the vehicle for re-testing.

266 4-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
nTire inflation pressure check interval
You should check tire pressure every two weeks, or at least once a
mo
nth.
Do not forget to check the spare tire.
nEffects of incorrect tire inflation pressure
Driving with incorrect ti re
inflation pressure may result in the following:
lReduced fuel efficiency
lReduced driving comfort and tire life
lReduced safety
lDamage to the drive train
If a tire needs frequent refilling, have it checked by your Toyota dealer.
n
Instructions for checking tire inflation pressure
When checking tire inflation pressure, observe the following:
lCheck only when the tires are cold.
If your vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours and has not been
driven for
more than 1 mile or 1.5 km, you will get an accurate cold
tire inflation pressure reading.
lAlways use a tire pressure gauge.
The appearance of the tire can be mi slead
ing. In addition, tire infla-
tion pressures that are even just a few pounds off can degrade ride
a
nd handling.
lDo not bleed or reduce tire inflation pressure after driving. It is normal
for the tire inflation pressure to be higher after driving.
lNever exceed the vehicle capacity weight.
Passengers and luggage weight should be placed so that the vehicle
is bal
anced.
