2022 TOYOTA 86 brake pads

1344-1. Before driving
●Do not race the engine. And do
not allow the engine speed to
exceed 4000 rpm except in an
emergency.
●Do not drive at one constant
engine or vehicle speed for a long
time, either fast or slow.
●Avoid starting suddenly and rapid
acceleration, except in an emer-
gency.
●Avoid hard braking, except in an
emergency.
The same break-in procedures
should be applied to an over-
hauled engine, newly mounted
engine or when brake pads or
brake linings are replaced with
new ones.
■Drum-in-disc type parking
brake system
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type
parking brake system. This type of
brake system needs bedding-down
of the brake shoes periodically or
whenever the parking brake shoes
and/or drum are replaced. Have
your Toyota dealer perform the bed-
ding down operation.
■After the engine starts
For a short time after the engine is
started, in order to ensure emissions
performance, intake and exhaust
noise and vibration may increase,
but this does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
■Operating your vehicle in a for-
eign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle
registration laws and confirm the
availability of the correct fuel.
(  P.381)
WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
(vehicles with an automatic
transmission)
●Always keep your foot on the
brake pedal while stopped with
the engine running. This pre-
vents the vehicle from creeping.
●Firmly depress the brake pedal
because engine speed may
increase immediately after start-
ing the engine, when the air
conditioning system is operat-
ing, when turning the steering
wheel, etc., thereby causing
creeping to become stronger.
Apply the parkin g brake as nec-
essary.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamil-
iar with the location of the brake
and accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the
brake pedal will result in sudden
acceleration that may lead to an
accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a
difficulty in operating the pedals.
Make sure to operate the pedals
properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when mov-
ing the vehicle only slightly. This
allows you to depress the brake
and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the
brake pedal using your left foot
may delay response in an emer-
gency, resulting in an accident.

Driving
WARNING
●Do not drive the vehicle over or
stop the vehicle near flammable
materials.
The exhaust system and
exhaust gases can be
extremely hot. These hot parts
may cause a fire if there is any
flammable material nearby.
●Vehicles with a manual trans-
mission: Do not release the
clutch pedal too quickly. Doing
so may propel the vehicle for-
ward, possibly causing an acci-
dent.
●During normal driving, do not
turn off the engine. Turning the
engine off while driving will not
cause loss of steering or brak-
ing control, but the power assist
to these systems will be lost.
This will make it more difficult to
steer and brake, so you should
pull over and stop the vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so.
However, in the event of an
emergency, such as if it
becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way:
P. 3 3 8
●Use engine braking (downshift)
to maintain a safe speed when
driving down a steep hill.
Using the brakes continuously
may cause the brakes to over-
heat and lose effectiveness.
(
P.149, 153)
●Do not adjust the positions of
the steering wheel, the seat, or
the inside or outside rear view
mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of
vehicle control.
●Always check that all passen-
gers’ arms, heads or other parts
of their body are not outside the
vehicle.
●Do not drive in excess of the
speed limit. Even if the legal
speed limit permits it, do not
drive over 85 mph (140 km/h)
unless your vehicle has
high-speed capability tires. Driv-
ing over 85 mph (140 km/h)
may result in tire failure, loss of
control and possible injury. Be
sure to consult a tire dealer to
determine whether the tires on
your vehicle are high-speed
capability tires or not before
driving at such speeds.
■When driving on slippery
road surfaces
●Sudden braking, acceleration
and steering may cause tire
slippage and reduce your ability
to control the vehicle.
●Sudden acceleration, engine
braking due to shifting, or
changes in engine speed could
cause the vehicle to skid.
●After driving through a puddle,
lightly depress the brake pedal
to make sure that the brakes
are functioning properly. Wet
brake pads may prevent the
brakes from functioning prop-
erly. If the brakes on only one
side are wet and not functioning
properly, steering control may
be affected.
■When shifting the shift lever
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: Do not let the
vehicle roll backward while the
shift lever is in a driving posi-
tion, or roll forw ard while the
shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine
to stall or lead to poor brake and
steering performance, resulting
in an accident or damage to the
vehicle.

1364-1. Before driving
WARNING
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: Do not shift the
shift lever to P while the vehicle
is moving.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss
of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to a
driving position while the vehicle
is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss
of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to R
while the vehicle is moving for-
ward.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss
of vehicle control.
●Moving the shift lever to N while
the vehicle is moving will disen-
gage the engine from the trans-
mission. Engine braking is not
available when N is selected.
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: Be careful not to
shift the shift lever with the
accelerator pedal depressed.
Shifting the shift lever to a gear
other than P or N may lead to
unexpected rapid acceleration
of the vehicle that may cause an
accident and result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not place items in the shift
lever's surrounding area. It may
cause incorrect operation.
●If the shift boot is pulled out
during cleaning, return it to its
previous position. If the shift
boot is left pulled out, the shift
lever may become difficult to
operate.
■If you hear a squealing or
scraping noise (brake pad
wear limit indicators)
Have the brake pads checked and
replaced by your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible. Rotor damage
may result if the pads are not
replaced when needed.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle
when the wear limits of the brake
pads and/or those of the brake
discs are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not race the engine.
If the vehicle is in any gear other
than P (automatic transmis-
sion) or N, the vehicle may
accelerate suddenly and unex-
pectedly, causing an accident.
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: In order to pre-
vent accidents due to the vehi-
cle rolling away, always keep
depressing the brake pedal
while the engine is running, and
apply the parking brake as nec-
essary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an
incline, in order to prevent acci-
dents caused by the vehicle roll-
ing forward or backward, always
depress the brake pedal and
securely apply the parking
brake as needed.
●Avoid revving or racing the
engine.
Running the engine at high
speed while the vehicle is
stopped may cause the exhaust
system to overheat, which could
result in a fire if combustible
material is nearby.

Maintenance and care
●To protect the matte paint from
damage, make sure to observe
the following precautions.
• Do not scrub or polish the wheels using a brush or dry cloth
• Do not use any wheel coatings or
abrasive detergents
■Brake pads and calipers
Rust may form if the vehicle is
parked with wet brake pads or disc
rotors, causing them to stick. Before
parking the vehicle after it is
washed, drive slow ly and apply the
brakes several times to dry the
parts.
■Bumpers
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
■Plated portions
If dirt cannot be removed, clean the
parts as follows:
●Use a soft cloth dampened with an
approximately 5% solution of neu-
tral detergent and water to clean
the dirt off.
●Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture.
●To remove oily deposits, use alco-
hol wet wipes or a similar product.
WARNING
■When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of
the engine compartment. Doing
so may cause the electrical com-
ponents, etc. to catch fire.
■Precautions regarding the
exhaust pipes
Exhaust gasses cause the
exhaust pipes and rear bumper
diffusers to become quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be
careful not to touch the pipes and
diffusers until they have cooled
sufficiently, as touching hot
exhaust pipes and rear bumper
diffusers can cause burns.
■Precaution regarding the rear
bumper
If the paint of th e rear bumper is
chipped or scratched, the follow-
ing systems may not function cor-
rectly. If this occurs, consult your
Toyota dealer.
●BSD/RCTA (if equipped)
●RAB (if equipped)

■To prevent paint deteriora-
tion and corrosion on the
body and components (alumi-
num wheels, etc.)
●Wash the vehicle immediately in
the following cases:
• After driving nea r the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar or tree sap is present on the paint surface
• If dead insects, insect droppings or bird droppings are present on
the paint surface
• After driving in an area contami- nated with soot, oily smoke,
mine dust, iron powder or chem-
ical substances
• If the vehicle becomes heavily soiled with d ust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gasoline are spilled on the paint
surface
●If the paint is chipped or
scratched, have it repaired
