■Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine 
Toyota parts be used for repairs to 
ensure performanc e of each sys-
tem. If non-Toyota parts are used in 
replacement or if a repair shop other 
than a Toyota dealer performs 
repairs, confirm the warranty cover-
age.
■Allow inspection and repairs to 
be performed by a Toyota 
dealer
●Toyota technicians are well-
trained specialists and are kept up 
to date with the  latest service 
information. They are well 
informed about the operations of 
all systems on your vehicle.
●Keep a copy of the repair order. It 
proves that the maintenance that 
has been performed is under war-
ranty coverage. If any problem 
should arise while your vehicle is 
under warranty, your Toyota 
dealer will promptly take care of it.
General maintenance should be 
performed on a daily basis. This 
can be done by yourself or by a 
Toyota dealer.
Scheduled maintenance should 
be performed at specified inter-
vals according to the mainte-
nance schedule.
For details about maintenance 
items and schedules, refer to the 
“Scheduled Maintenance Guide” or 
“Owner’s Manual Supplement”.
You can perform some mainte-
nance procedures by yourself.
