130STARTING AND DRIVING
Keep the door locks from freezing.
Squirt lock de−icer or glycerine into the
locks to keep them from freezing. To open
a frozen lock, try heating the key before
inserting it.
Use a washer fluid containing an anti-
freeze solution.
This product is available at any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer and most auto
parts stores or another qualified professio-
nal. Follow the manufacturer ’s directions
for how much to mix with water.
NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any
other substitute because it may dam-
age your vehicle’s paint.
Do not use your parking brake when
there is a possibility it could freeze.
When parking, put the transmission into
first or reverse and block the front
wheels. Do not use the parking brake, or
snow or water accumulated in and around
the parking brake mechanism may freeze,
making it hard to release.
Keep ice and snow from accumulating
under the fenders.
Ice and snow built up under your fenders
can make steering difficult. During bad
winter driving, stop and check under the
fenders occasionally.
Depending on where you are driving,
we recommend you carry some emer-
gency equipment.
Some of the things you might put in the
vehicle are tire chains, window scraper,
bag of sand or salt, flares, small shovel,
jumper cables, etc.Your vehicle is designed primarily as a
passenger−and−load−carrying vehicle. Tow-
ing a trailer will have an adverse effect on
handling, performance,braking,durability
and driving economy (fuel consumption,
etc.). Your safety and satisfaction depend
on the proper use of correct equipment
and cautious driving habits. For your safe-
ty and the safety of others, you must not
overload your vehicle or trailer. Ask your
local authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and equipped
professional, for further details before tow-
ing, as there are additional legal require-
ments in some countries.
WEIGHT LIMITS
Before towing, confirm the towing capacity,
gross vehicle mass (GVM), maximum per-
missible axle capacity (MPAC) and draw-
bar load. They are listed on page 214 in
Section 8.
When towing a trailer, observe the follow-
ing:
DThe total trailer weight (trailer weight
plus its cargo load) is within the towing
capacity.
DWhen the total trailer weight is greater
than the vehicle weight, we recommend
the use of a friction stabilizer (sway
control device).
DWhen the total trailer weight is over
2000 kg (4409 lb.), a friction stabilizer
(sway control device) is required.

142IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
Before making these checks, make sure
you have followed the correct starting pro-
cedure given in “How to start the engine”
on page 124 in Section 3 and that you
have sufficient fuel.
If the engine is not turning over or is
turning over too slowly—
1. Check that the battery terminals are
tight and clean.
2. If the battery terminals are O.K., switch
on the interior light.
3. If the light is out, dim or goes out
when the starter is cranked, the battery
is discharged. You may try jump start-
ing. See “(c) Jump starting” on page
143 for further instructions.
If the light is O.K., but the engine still will
not start, it needs adjustment or repair.
Call any authorized Toyota dealer or re-
pairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
NOTICE
Do not pull−or push−start the ve-
hicle. It may damage the vehicle or
cause a collision when the engine
starts. Also, the catalytic converter
may overheat and become a fire haz-
ard.
If the engine turns over at its normal
speed but will not start—
1. If you are starting the engine that has
died from an empty tank, you may
have needed to bleed the fuelsystem
before cranking the engine. See “(b)
Bleeding the fuelsystem” onpage 142
for further instructions.
2. If the fuel system is O.K., but the
engine still will not start, it needs ad-
justment or repair. Call any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped profession-
al, for assistance.
If you run out of fuel and the engine
dies, the engine may not restart after
refueling. In such case, operate the
priming pump until you feel more resis-
tance.

IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY143
To avoid serious injury and damage to
your vehicle which might result from
battery explosion, acid burns, electrical
burns, or damaged electronic compo-
nents, these instructions must be fol-
lowed precisely.
If you are unsure about how to follow this
procedure, we strongly recommend that
you seek the help of a competent me-
chanic or towing service.
CAUTION
DBatteries contain sulfuric acid
which is poisonous and corrosive.
Wear protective safety glasses when
jump starting, and avoid spilling
acid on your skin, clothing, or ve-
hicle.
DIf you should accidentally get acid
on yourself or in your eyes, remove
any contaminated clothing and flush
the affected area with water imme-
diately. Then get immediate medical
attention. If possible, continue to
apply water with a sponge or cloth
while en route to the medical office.
DThe gas normally produced by a
battery will explode if a flame or
spark is brought near. Use only
standardized jumper cables and do
not smoke or light a match while
jump starting.
NOTICE
The battery used for boosting must
be 12 V. Do not jump start unless you
are sure that the booster battery is
correct.
JUMP STARTING PROCEDURE
1. If your vehicle is equipped with the
battery cover, remove it.
2. If the booster battery is installed in
another vehicle, make sure the vehicles
are not touching. Turn off all unneces-
sary lights and accessories.
When boosting, use the battery of
matching or higher quality. Any other
battery may be difficult to jump start
with.
If jump starting is difficult, charge the
battery for several minutes.
3. If the engine in the vehicle with the
booster battery is not running, start it
and let it run for a few minutes. During
jump starting, run the engine at about
2000 rpm with the accelerator pedal
lightly depressed.

146IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
Connecting point
Do not connect the cable to or near
any part that moves when the engine
is cranked.
CAUTION
When making the connections, to
avoid death or serious injury, do not
lean over the battery or accidentally
let the jumper cables or clamps touch
anything except the correct battery
terminals or the ground.
5. Charge the discharged battery with the
jumper cable connected for approxi-
mately 5 minutes. At this time, run the
engine in the vehicle with the booster
battery at about 2000 rpm with the ac-
celerator pedal lightly depressed.
6. Start your engine in the normal way.
After starting, run it at about 2000 rpm
for several minutes with the accelerator
pedal lightly depressed.
7. Carefully disconnect the cables in the
exact reverse order: the negative cable
and then the positive cable.
8. If your vehicle is equipped with the
battery cover, install it.If the cause of your battery discharging is
not apparent (for example, lights left on),
you should have it checked at any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
If the first start attempt is not success-
ful...
Check that the clamp on the jumper
cables are tight. Recharge the discharged
battery with the jumper cables connected
for several minutes and restart your en-
gine in the normal way.
If the another attempt is not successful,
the battery may be depleted. Have it ch-
ecked at any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
