Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to the recommendations in this booklet is
re quired to ensure that your warranty coverage remains intact. You should keep
detailed records of vehicle maintenance, i ncluding date of service, mileage at
ti me of service and a description of service and/or parts installation performed.
The scheduled maintenance log in t his booklet can help you document this
information. If you sell your vehicle, be sure to give your maintenance records to
the new owner.
To yota will not deny a warrant y claim solely because you do not have records
to show that you maintained your vehicle. However, damage or failures caused
by lack of proper maintenance are not covered under warranty.
Maintenance Providers
Maintenance and repair services may be performed by you or by any automotive
service provider you choose. Toyota w ill not deny a warranty claim solely because
you used a service provider other than a Toyota dealership for maintenance and
re pa irs. However, damage or failures caused by improper maintenance or repairs
are not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended Maintenance
Yo ur dealer may recommend more frequent maintenance intervals or more
maintenance services than those listed in the scheduled maintenance log. These
additional services are not requ ired to maintain your warranty coverage. Ask your
dealer for an explanation of any recommend ed maintenance not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.

Genuine Toyota Parts and Accessories
Genuine Toyota Parts
To safegu ard the quality, reli ability and value of your veh icle, Toyota recommends
using only Genuine Toyota Parts for maintenance and repairs. Like all Toyota
products, Genuine Toyota Parts are built to the highest standards of quality and
performance. They are also designed to fit your vehicle’s exact specifications.
Yo ur Toyota dealership maintains
an extensive inventory of Genuine
To yota Parts to meet your vehicle
service needs. And because it
is linked electronically to Toyota’s
Par ts Distribution Centers, the
dealership has quick access to any
parts it may not have in stock.
When installed by a Toyota dealership, Genu ine Toyota Parts (with the exception
of batteries) are warranted for 12 months from date of installation, regardless
of mileage, or the remainder of any applicable New Vehicle Limited Warranty,
w hichever provides greater coverage. Selected Toyota replacement parts are covered
by a lifetime warranty (see page 6). Non-Gen uine Toyota Parts — and any damage
or failures resulting from their use — ar e not covered by any Toyota warranty.
Genuine Toyota Remanufactured Parts
Toyota also offers the highest level of qu ality, fit and performance in selected
re manufactured parts. These parts enable you to economically maintain and
re pa ir your vehicle with Genuine Toyota quality. They also feature the same
wa rranty coverage as new Genuine Toyota Parts. Available parts range from
alternators to water pumps; ask your Toyota dealership for a complete list
of remanufactured product offerings.
For all your maintenance and repair needs, insist on the quality and peace
of mind you only get with Genuine Toyota Parts.

Genuine Toyota Parts and Accessories
Genuine Toyota Accessories
When you want to personalize your Toyota vehicle, be sure to do it without
sacrificing Toyota quality and performance. How? By choosing Genuine Toyota
Accessories.
Only Genuine Toyota Accessories ar e designed and manufactured specifically for
To yota vehicles. In addition, they undergo rigorous testing to ensure first-rate
quality, precise fit and long-te rm durability. Aftermarketaccessories don’t always
meet these same high standards.

To yota warranty. Coverage is for 12 months from date of purchase, regardless of
mileage. If an accessory is installed du ring the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
period (36 months/36,000 miles), coverage is for the remainder of that period.

Tr ueStart Batteries
The reputation for quality and reliability was likely a ke y reason behind your
decision to buy a Toyota. That overall qu ality is present in each of the compo-
nents of your car or truck, including the b attery. When it’s time for a replace-
ment, your Toyota dealer is the only place to find a battery with the power to
start and operate your vehicle like new.
To maintain the original performance desig ned into your Toyota, a replacement
b attery must meet Toyota’s specifications for Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) and
R eserve Capacity (RC). RC, a specification oft en not met by aftermarket brands,
supplies the power you need duri ng high-demand conditions such as driving in
heavy traffic. RC is also what gives you the po werto operate electronic accessories
wi th the engine off. By choosing a TrueStart,
™you can be confident your battery
w ill meet your needs, every day.
Wa rranty coverage is another important consideration when selecting a battery.
Tr ueStart
™batteries feature a free repl acement period of 24 months or the
re mainder of the Toyota New Vehicle Li mited Warranty, whichever is longer.
Following the free replacement period, wa rranty coverage is prorated from
months 25—84 in two simple tiers. See your Toyota dealer for more details.
