When trouble arises
Follow  the  procedure  below  to  restart  the  engine  after  the  system  is
activated.
Vehicles without a smart key system
Turn the engine switch to the “ACC” or “LOCK” position.
Restart the engine.
Vehicles with a smart key system
Turn the engine switch off.
Restart the engine.
Fuel pump shut off  system
To  minimize  the  risk  of  fuel  leakage  when  the  engine  stalls  or
when  an  airbag  inflates  upon  collision,  the  fuel  pump  shut  off
system stops the supply of fuel to the engine.
NOTICE
■ Before starting the engine
Inspect the ground under the vehicle.
If  you  find  that  fuel  has  leaked  onto  the  ground,  the  fuel  system  has  been
damaged and is in need of repair. Do not restart the engine.

Recommendation of the use of low emissions gasoline
Gasolines  containing  oxygenates  such  as  ethers  and  ethanol,  as  well  as
reformulated gasolines, are available in some cities. These fue ls are typically
acceptable for use, providing they meet other fuel requirements .
Toyota  recommends  these  fuels,  since  the  formulations  allow  for   reduced
vehicle emissions.
■ Non-recommendation of the use of blended gasoline
●If  you  use  gasohol  in  your  vehicle,  be  sure  that  it  has  an  octa ne  rating  no
lower than 87.
● Toyota does not recommend the use of gasoline containing methan ol.
■ Non-recommendation of the use of gasoline containing MMT
Some gasoline contains an octane enhancing additive called MMT  (Methylcy-
clopentadienyl Manganese Tricarbonyl).
Toyota  does  not  recommend  the  use  of  gasoline  that  contains  MMT.  If  fuel
containing  MMT  is  used,  your  emission  control  system  may  be  adversely
affected.
The malfunction indicator lamp on the instrument cluster may come on. If this
happens, contact your Toyota dealer for service.
■ If your engine knocks
●Consult your Toyota dealer.
● You may occasionally notice light knocking for a short time whi le accelerat-
ing or driving uphill. This is normal and there is no need for  concern.
●
Use  only  gasoline  containing  up  to  15%
ethanol.
DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gasoline
that  could  contain  more  than  15%  etha-
nol,  including  from  any  pump  labeled
E30,  E50,  E85  (which  are  only  some
examples  of  fuel  containing  more  than
15% ethanol).
DO NOT use gasoline contain-
ing more than 15% ethanol.
(30% ethanol)
(50% ethanol)
(85% ethanol)
