1344-1. Before driving
WA R N I N G
●Vehicles with an automatic trans-
mission: Be careful not to shift the
shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shifting the shift
lever to a gear other than P or N
may lead to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may
cause an accident and result in
death or serious injury.
●Do not place items in the shift
lever's surrounding area. It may
cause incorrect operation.
●If the shift boot is pulled out during
cleaning, return it to its previous position. If the shift boot is left
pulled out, the shift lever may
become difficult to operate.
■If you hear a squealing or scrap-
ing noise (brake pad wear indica- tors)
Have the brake pads checked and
replaced by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer as soon as
possible. Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when
needed.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake
pads and/or those of the brake discs
are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not race the engine. If the vehicle is in any gear other
than P (automatic transmission) or
N, the vehicle may accelerate sud- denly and unexpectedly, causing an
accident.
●Vehicles with an automatic trans-
mission: In order to prevent acci-
dents due to the vehicle rolling away, always keep depressing the
brake pedal while the engine is run-
ning, and apply the parking brake as necessary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent acci-
dents caused by the vehicle rolling
forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal and
securely apply the parking brake as
needed.
●Avoid revving or racing the engine.
Running the engine at high speed while the vehicle is stopped may
cause the exhaust system to over-
heat, which could result in a fire if combustible material is nearby.
■When the vehicle is parked
●Do not leave glasses, cigarette
lighters, spray cans, or soft drink
cans in the vehicle when it is in the sun.
Doing so may result in the follow-
ing:
• Gas may leak from a cigarette
lighter or spray can, and may lead
to a fire.
• The temperature inside the vehicle
may cause the plastic lenses and plastic material of glasses to
deform or crack.
• Soft drink cans may fracture, caus-
ing the contents to spray over the
interior of the vehicle, and may also cause a short circuit in the vehicle’s
electrical components.
●Do not leave cigarette lighters in the
vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a
place such as the glove box or on the floor, it may be lit accidentally
when luggage is loaded or the seat
is adjusted, causing a fire.
●Do not attach adh esive discs to the
windshield or windows. Do not
place containers such as air fresh- eners on the instrument panel or
dashboard. Adhesive discs or con-
tainers may act as lenses, causing a fire in the vehicle.
