■Repair and replacement
It is recommended that genuine
Toyota parts be used for repairs to
ensure performanc e of each sys-

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.

or become electrically energized.
To avoid death or serious injury,
observe the following precautions.
■When working on the engine
compartment
●Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the moving fans.
●Be careful not to touch the
engine, power control unit, radi-
ator, exhaust manifold, etc. right
after driving as they may be hot.
Oil and other fluids may also be
hot.
ItemsParts and tools●Make sure that the “ACCES-

both off.
●Do not leave anything that may
burn easily, such as paper and

working on the 12-volt battery. It
contains poisonous and corro-
sive sulfuric acid.
■When working near the elec-
tric cooling fans or radiator
grille
Be sure the power switch is OFF.
With the power switch in ON, the
electric cooling fans may auto-
matically start to r un if the air con-
ditioning is on an d/or the coolant

■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent
flying or falling material, fluid
spray, etc. from getting in your
eyes.
NOTICE

filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter
removed may cause excessive
engine wear due to dirt in the air.
