INFORMATION BEFORE DRIVING YOUR TOYOTA197
The three−way catalytic converter is an
emission control device installed in the
exhaust system.
The purpose is to reduce pollutants in the
exhaust gas.
CAUTION
DKeep people and combustible mate-
rials away from the exhaust pipe
while the engine is running. The
exhaust gas is very hot.
DDo not drive, idle or park your ve-
hicle over anything that might burn
easily such as grass, leaves, paper
or rags.
NOTICE
A large amount of unburned gases
flowing into the three−way catalytic
converter may cause it to overheat
and create a fire hazard. To prevent
this and other damage, observe the
following precautions:
zUse only unleaded gasoline.
zDo not drive with an extremely low
fuel level; running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, creat-
ing an excessive load on the three−
way catalytic converter.
zDo not allow the engine to run at
idle speed for more than 20 min-
utes.
zAvoid racing the engine.
zDo not push−start or pull−start your
vehicle.
zDo not turn off the engine while the
vehicle is moving.
zKeep your engine in good running
order. Malfunctions in the engine
electrical system, electronic ignition
system/distributor ignition system
or fuel system could cause an ex-
tremely high three−way catalytic
converter temperature.
zIf the engine becomes difficult to
start or stalls frequently, take your
vehicle in for a check−up to any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
zTo ensure that the three−way
catalytic converter and the entire
emission control system operate
properly, your vehicle must receive
the periodic inspections required by
the Toyota Maintenance Schedule.
For scheduled maintenance
information, refer to the “Toyota
Service Booklet” or “Toyota
Warranty Booklet”.

DO−IT−YOURSELF MAINTENANCE: Introduction261
NOTICE
zRemember that battery and ignition
cables carry high currents or volt-
ages. Be careful not to accidentally
cause a short circuit.
zAdd only “Toyota Super Long Life
Coolant” or similar high quality eth-
ylene glycol based non−silicate,
non−amine, non−nitrite, and non−bo-
rate coolant with long−life hybrid
organic acid technology to fill the
radiator. “Toyota Super Long Life
Coolant” is a mixture of 50% cool-
ant and 50% deionized water.
zIf you spill some of the coolant, be
sure to wash it off with water to
prevent it from damaging any parts
or paint.
zDo not allow dirt or anything else
to fall through the spark plug holes.
zDo not pry the outer electrode of a
spark plug against the center elec-
trode.
zUse only spark plugs of the speci-
fied type. Using other types will
cause engine damage, loss of per-
formance or radio noise.
zIf you spill brake fluid, be sure to
wash it off with water to prevent it
from damaging any parts or paint.
zDo not drive with the air cleaner
filter removed, or excessive engine
wear could result. Also backfiring
could cause a fire in the engine
compartment.
zBe careful not to scratch the glass
surfaces with the wiper frames.
zWhen closing the engine hood,
check to see that you have not for-
gotten any tools, rags, etc.
