EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
 
 
 
Steering Linkage and Boots
With the vehicle stopped, check for  
excessive freeplay in the steering wheel. 
Inspect the linkage for bending and  
damage and the dust boots for deterioration, 
cracks and damage. Replace any damaged 
parts. Toyota recommends maintenance and 
repair be performed by a Toyota dealership  
or another qualified service center or  
repair shop. 
 Tires
Check tire pressure and check tires for 
damage and uneven wear. If the vehicle 
is equipped with a spare tire, check the 
condition and pressure of the spare.
Washer System 
Check windshield wiper and washer nozzle 
positions. For further details, refer to the 
“Driving” section of the Owner’s Manual.
Wiper Blades
The wiper blades should not show any  
signs of cracking, splitting, wear, 
contamination or deformation. The  
wiper blades should clear the windshield  
without streaking or skipping.
