2014 TOYOTA DYNA 100/150 steering

STARTING AND DRIVING139
DMaintain a moderate speed on high-
ways.The faster you drive, the greater
the fuel consumption. By reducing your
speed, you will cut down on fuel con-
sumption.
DKeep the front wheels in proper
alignment.Avoid hitting the curb and
slow down on rough roads. Improper
alignment not only causes faster tire
wear but also puts an extra load on
the engine, which, in turn, wastes fuel.
DKeep the bottom of your vehicle free
from mud, etc.This not only lessens
weight but also helps prevent corro-
sion.
DKeep your vehicle tuned−up and in
top shape.A dirty air cleaner, carbure-
tor out of adjustment, improper valve
clearance, dirty plugs, dirty oil and
grease, brakes not adjusted, etc. all
lower engine performance and contrib-
ute to poor fuel economy. For longer
life of all parts and lower operating
costs, keep all maintenance work on
schedule, and if you often drive under
severe conditions, see that your vehicle
receives more frequent maintenance.
CAUTION
Never turn off the engine to coast
down hills. Your power steering and
brake booster will not function with-
out the engine running. Also, the
emission control system operates
properly only when the engine is run-
ning.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY147
If your engine stalls while driving...
1. Reduce your speed gradually, keeping
a straight line. Move cautiously off the
road to a safe place.
2. Turn on your emergency flashers.
3. Try starting the engine again.
If the engine will not start, see “If your
vehicle will not start” on page 142.
CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the pow-
er assist for the brakes and steering
will not work so steering and braking
will be much harder than usual.
If engine speed does not increase when
the accelerator pedal is depressed, there
may be a problem somewhere in the elec-
tronic engine controlsystem. Stop the ve-
hicle and contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional, or take
your vehicle carefully, since the vehicle
performance will be lower than normal, to
any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and equipped
professional, as soon as possible.
Even if the abnormality in the electronic
engine controlsystem is corrected during
low speed driving, thesystem may not
recover until the engine is stopped and
the engine switch is turned to the “ACC”
or “LOCK” position.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY163
(a) Towing with wheel lift type truck—
—From front
—From rear
(b) Using flat bed truck
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or qualified
professional, such as a commercial tow
truck service. In consultation with them,
have your vehicle towed using either (a)
or (b).
Only when you cannot receive a towing
service from any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or qualified profes-
sional, such as a commercial tow truck
service, tow your vehicle carefully in
accordance with the instructions given
in “—Emergency towing” on page 164
in this Section.Proper equipment will help ensure that
your vehicle is not damaged while being
towed. Commercial operators are generally
aware of the state/provincial and local
laws pertaining to towing.
Your vehicle can be damaged if it is
towed incorrectly. Although most operators
know the correct procedure, it is possible
to make a mistake. To avoid damage to
your vehicle, make sure the following pre-
cautions are observed. If necessary, show
this page to the tow truck driver.
TOWING PRECAUTIONS:
Use a safety chain system for all towing,
and abide by the state/provincial and local
laws. The wheels and axle on the ground
must be in good condition. If they are
damaged, use a towing dolly.
(a) Towing with wheel lift type truck
From front—We recommend using a tow-
ing dolly under the rear wheels. If you do
not use a towing dolly, release the parking
brake and put the transmission in neutral.
From rear—Place the engine switch in the
“ACC” position.NOTICE
zWhen lifting wheels, take care to
ensure adequate ground clearance
for towing at the opposite end of
the raised vehicle. Otherwise, the
bumper and/or underbody of the
towed vehicle will be damaged dur-
ing towing.
zDo not tow with the key removed or
in the “LOCK” position, as the
steering lock mechanism is not
strong enough to hold the front
wheels straight while towing.
(b) Using flat bed truck

If your vehicle needs to be
towed—

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY165
If towing is necessary, we recommend
you to have it done by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or qualified
professional, such as a commercial tow
truck service.
If towing service is not available in an
emergency, your vehicle may be tempo-
rarily towed by a cable or chain se-
cured to one of the following parts:
Front: Front emergency towing hook
Rear: Rear emergency towing eyelet
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle.
NOTICE
Only use specified towing hook or
eyelet; otherwise your vehicle may be
damaged.
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer
it and operate the brakes.
Towing in this manner may be done only
on hard−surfaced roads for a short dis-
tance and at low speeds. Also, the
wheels, axles, drive train, steering and
brakes must all be in good condition.
CAUTION
Use extreme caution when towing the
vehicle. Avoid sudden starts or errat-
ic driving maneuvers which would
place excessive stress on the emer-
gency towing hook or eyelet and tow-
ing cable or chain. The hook or eye-
let and towing cable or chain may
break and cause serious injury or
damage.
NOTICE
Use only a cable or chain specifically
intended for use in towing vehicles.
Securely fasten the cable or chain to
the towing hook or eyelet provided.
Before towing, release the parking brake
and put the transmission in neutral. The
engine switch must be in “ACC” (engine
off) or “ON” (engine running) position.
CAUTION
If the engine is not running, the pow-
er assist for the brakes and steering
will not work so steering and braking
will be much harder than usual.
Dyna100/150_EE

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY167
Only in an emergency, such as if it
becomes impossible to stop the vehicle
in the normal way, stop the vehicle us-
ing the following procedure:
1. Steadily step on the brake pedal with
both feet and firmly depress it. Do not
pump the brake pedal repeatedly as
this will increase the effort required to
slow the vehicle.
2. Shift the shift lever to neutral.
If the shift lever is shifted to neutral:
3. After slowing down, stop the vehicle in
a safe place by the road.
4. Stop the engine.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted to
neutral:
3. Keep depressing the brake pedal with
both feet to reduce vehicle speed as
much as possible.
4. Stop the engine by turning the engine
switch to the “ACC” position.
5. Stop the vehicle in a safe place by the
road.
CAUTION
If the engine has to be turned off
while driving:
DPower assist for the brakes and
steering wheel will be lost, making
the brake pedal harder to depress
and the steering wheel heavier to
turn. Decelerate as much as pos-
sible before turning off the engine.
DNever attempt to remove the key, as
doing so will lock the steering
wheel.
