Maintenance and Care
Tires
Inspect all tire pressures monthly (including the spare) when the tires
are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, han-
dling, and minimum tire wear.
Refer to the spec ification charts
(→P. 5 5 8).
With tire pressure monitoring system:
After adjusting the tire pressure, init ialization of the tire pressure mon-
itoring system is necessary to make the system operate normally.
Refer to Tire Pressure Monitoring System Initialization on P. 221.
For reasons of proper performance, safety, and better fuel econ-
omy, always maintain recommended tire inflation pressures and
stay within the recommended load limits and weight distribu-
tion.
WARNING
■Using Different Tire Types
Driving your vehicle with different ty pes of tires is dangerous. It could
cause poor handling and poor braking; leading to loss of control.
Except for the limited use of the temporary spare tire, use only the same
type tires (radial, bias-belted, bias-type) on all four wheels.
■Using Wrong-Sized Tires
Using any other tire size than what is specified for the vehicle (→P. 558)
is dangerous. It could seriously affect ride, handling, ground clearance,
tire clearance, and speedometer ca libration. This could cause you to
have an accident. Use only tires that are the correct size specified for
the vehicle.

Maintenance and Care
Clean the webbing with a mild soap solution recommended for uphol-
stery or carpets. Follow instructions. Do not bleach or dye the web-
bing; this may weaken it.
After cleaning the belts, thoroughly dry the belt webbing and make
sure there is no remaining moisture before retracting them.
If the windows become covered with an oily, greasy, or waxy film,
clean them with glass cleaner. Follow the directions on the container.
Rubber floor mats should be cleaned with mild soap and water only.
After removing the floor mats for cleaning, always reinstall them
securely. ( →P. 129)
Cleaning the Lap/Shoulder Belt Webbing
WARNING
■Have your Toyota dealer replace damaged seat belts immediately
Using damaged seat belts is dangerous. In a collision, damaged belts can-
not provide adequate protection.
Cleaning the Window Interiors
NOTICE
● Do not scrape or scratch the inside of the window glass. It could damage
the thermal filaments.
● When washing the inside of the window glass, use a soft cloth dampened
in lukewarm water, gently wiping the thermal filaments.
Use of glass cleaning products could damage the thermal filaments.
Cleaning the Floor Mats
WARNING
■Do not use rubber cleaners, such as tire cleaner or tire shine, when
cleaning rubber floor mats
Cleaning the rubber floor mats with rubber cleaning products makes the
floor mats slippery.
This may cause an accident when depressing the accelerator, brake, or
clutch (Manual transaxle) pedal or when getting in or out of the vehicle.

If Trouble Arises
WARNING
■ Follow These Precautions Carefully
To ensure safe and correct handling of the battery, read the following pre-
cautions carefully before using the battery or inspecting it.
■ Do not allow the positive (+) term inal to contact any other metal
object that could cause sparks
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the bat-
tery to explode. An exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.
When working near a battery, do not allow metal tools to contact the positive
(+) or negative (-) terminal of the battery.
■ Keep all flames, including cigarettes, and sparks away from
open battery cells
Flames and sparks near open battery cells are dangerous. Hydrogen gas,
produced during normal battery operation, could ignite and cause the bat-
tery to explode. An exploding battery can cause serious burns and injuries.
■ Do not jump-start a frozen battery or one with a low fluid level
Jump-starting a frozen battery or one with a low fluid level is dangerous. It
may rupture or explode, causing serious injury.
■ Connect the negative cable to a good ground point away from the bat-
tery
Connecting the end of the second jumper cable to the negative (-) terminal
of the discharged battery is dangerous.
A spark could cause the gas around the battery to explode and injure some-
one.
■ Route the jumper cables away fr om parts that will be moving
Connecting a jumper cable near or to moving parts (cooling fans, belts) is
dangerous. The cable could get caught when the engine starts and cause
serious injury.
NOTICE
Use only a 12 V booster system. You can damage a 12 V starter, ignition
system, and other electrical parts beyond repair with a 24 V power supply
(two 12 V batteries in series or a 24 V motor generator set).
