BATTERY PRECAUTIONS
The battery produces flammable
and explosive hydrogen gas.
Do not cause a spark from the bat-
tery with tools.
Do not smoke or light a match near
the battery.
The electrolyte contains poisonous
and corrosive sulfuric acid. Avoid contact with eyes, skin or clothes.
Never ingest electrolyte.
Wear protective safety glasses
when working near the battery.
Keep children away from the bat-
tery.
EMERGENCY MEASURES If electrolyte gets in your eyes,
flush your eyes with clean water
for at least 15 minutes and get im-
mediate medical attention. If pos-
sible, continue to apply water with
a sponge or cloth while en route to
the medical office.
If electrolyte gets on your skin,
thoroughly wash the contact area.
If you feel pain or burning, get
medical attention immediately. CAUTION
!
If electrolyte gets on your clothes,
there is a possibility of its soaking
through to your skin, so immedi- ately take off the exposed cloth-
ing and follow the procedure
above, if necessary.
If you happen to swallow electro-
lyte, drink a large quantity of wa-
ter or milk. Follow with milk of

To check the headlight aim, check the vertical and horizontal gauges.
1. Look at the beam angle gauge (vertical
movement). The bubble of the gauge
should not deviate from the center of the gauge by more than two marks on either side of the gauge.2. Look at the beam angle gauge (hori- zontal movement). The 0º mark should
not deviate by more than one mark on ei-
ther side of the gauge.
If the error is over the value specified
above, take the vehicle to your Toyota
dealer to adjust the headlight aim. The following illustrations show how to
gain access to the bulbs. When replacing
a bulb, make sure the ignition switch and
light switch are off. Use bulbs with the wattage ratings given in the table.
Halogen bulbs have pressurized
gas inside and require special han-
dling. They can burst or shatter ifscratched or dropped. Hold a bulb
only by its plastic or metal case. Do
not touch the glass part of a bulb
with bare hands.
