service schedule TOYOTA CAMRY 2009 XV40 / 8.G Scheduled Maintenance Guide

MAINTENANCE RECORDS
Maintaining your vehicle according to the recommendations in this booklet is required to
ensure that your warranty coverage remains intact. You should keep detailed records of
vehicle maintenance, including date of service, mileage at time of service and a description
of service and/or parts installation performed. The scheduled maintenance log in this
booklet can help you document this information. If you sell your vehicle, be sure to give
your maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty 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 will not deny a warranty claim solely because you used a
service provider other than a Toyota dealership for maintenance and repairs. However,
damage or failures caused by improper maintenance or repairs are not covered under
warranty.
DEALER-RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE
Your dealer may recommend more frequent maintenance intervals or more maintenance
services than those listed in the scheduled maintenance log. These additional services are
not required to maintain your warranty coverage. Ask your dealer to explain any
recommended maintenance not included in the scheduled maintenance log. For a complete description of Toyota warranty coverages, see the booklet entitled
2009
Owner’s Warranty Information
located in your vehicle’s glove box.
MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY
03

Regular maintenance is essential to obtaining the highest level of performance from your
Toyota. It can also increase your vehicle’s resale value. This booklet presents Toyota’s
maintenance recommendations in convenient checklists, so you can easily see what type of
maintenance your vehicle needs and document that the work was performed.
To ensure that your vehicle receives first-quality service and parts, Toyota recommends
having maintenance performed by an authorized Toyota dealership. Toyota dealership
technicians are experts on Toyota vehicles, and they use Genuine Toyota Parts designed to
your vehicle’s exact specifications. When you go to a Toyota dealership, you can be
confident that they will use Genuine Toyota parts and have Toyota-trained technicians.
MILES OR MONTHS?
Toyota recommends obtaining scheduled maintenance for your vehicle every 5,000 miles
or six months, whichever comes first.
For example:
• If you drive 5,000 miles in less than six months, you should obtain maintenance at
5,000 miles - don’t wait until six months.
• If at six months you have driven less than 5,000 miles, you should obtain maintenance
at six months - don’t wait until 5,000 miles.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage so that you obtain maintenance when
recommended. If you are a low-mileage driver, mark your calendar to remind yourself to
obtain maintenance every six months.
DOCUMENTING YOUR INVESTMENT
To help you verify that you’ve invested in proper maintenance,
each maintenance checklist includes space for your Toyota
dealership to certify that you obtained Genuine Toyota Service
for your vehicle. The dealership will mark the dealer service
verification area with the following stamp (which may be
customized with the dealership’s name):
