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 nothave 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 for an explanation of any recommended maintenance not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota warranty coverages, see the booklet
entitled
2002 Prius Owner’s Warranty Informationlocated in your vehicle’s
glove box.

Genuine Toyota Parts and Accessories
Genuine Toyota Parts
To safeguard the quality, reliability and value of your vehicle, Toyota recommends
using only Genuine Toyota Parts for maintenance and repairs. Like all Toyota
products, Genuine Toyota Parts are builtto the highest standards of quality and
performance. They are also designed to fit your vehicle’s exact specifications.
Your Toyota dealership maintains
an extensive inventory of Genuine
Toyota Parts to meet your vehicle
service needs. And because it
is linked electronically to Toyota’s
Parts Distribution Centers, the
dealership has quick access to any
parts it may not have in stock.
When installed by a Toyota dealership, Genuine 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,
whichever provides greater coverage. Selected Toyota replacement parts are covered
by a lifetime warranty (see page 6). Non-Genuine Toyota Parts — and any damage
or failures resulting from their use — are not covered by any Toyota warranty.
Genuine Toyota Remanufactured Parts
Toyota also offers the highest level of quality, fit and performance in selected
remanufactured parts. These parts enable you to economically maintain and
repair your vehicle with Genuine Toyota quality. They also feature the same
warranty coverage as new Genuine Toyota Parts. Available parts range from
alternators to water pumps; ask yourToyota dealership for a complete list
of remanufactured product offerings.
For all your maintenance and repairneeds, insist on the quality and peace
of mind you only get with Genuine Toyota Parts.

Genuine Toyota Accessories
When you want to personalize your Toyota Prius, be sure to do it without
sacrificing Toyota quality and performance. How? By choosing Genuine Toyota
Accessories.
Only Genuine Toyota Accessories are designed and manufactured specifically for
Toyota vehicles. In addition, they undergo rigorous testing to ensure first-rate
quality, precise fit and long-term durability. Aftermarketaccessories don’t always
meet these same high standards.
The quality of Genuine Toyota Accessories is also backed by the integrity of a
Toyota warranty. Coverage is for 12 months from date of purchase, regardless of
mileage. If an accessory is installed during the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
period (36 months/36,000 miles), coverage is for the remainder of that period.
See your dealer for details. And remember that Genuine Toyota Accessories can
only be purchased from an authorized Toyota dealership.

Service Agreements
Toyota’s vehicle service agreement is a contract that enhances in scope and/or
length of coverage the protection provided by the manufacturer’s original war-
ranty, or provides protection if the original warranty has expired. The agreement
provides for the repair or replacement of covered components thathave mechan-
ical failures, and protects you from increases in the cost of covered repairs. In
addition, many plans include benefits such as towing, substitute transportation
and travel protection with lodging and meals.
Because they are factory-backed, Toyota service agreements are accepted at all
Toyota dealerships in the United States and Canada. That means repairs are made
only by factory-trained technicians using Genuine Toyota Parts.
Toyota Financial Services offers several levels of service agreement coverage, each
with a variety of time and mileage options.
**Your Toyota dealer can help you
select the coverage that best meets your needs.
Vehicle service agreements are offered by Toyota Motor Insurance Services, Inc., dba Toyota Motor
Services Company in certain states. In Florida, offered by Toyota Motor Insurance Company.
Toyota Financial Services is a service mark of Toyota Motor Insurance Services, Inc.*

Determining Your Vehicle’s Maintenance Needs
Determining the Proper Maintenance Interval
Depending on your circumstances, you should obtain maintenance for your
Toyota every 5,000 miles or every 7,500 miles. Follow these guidelines to
determine which interval to use.
5,000-Mile Intervals
Use 5,000-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under any of the
following conditions:
•Driving on unpaved or dusty roads.
•Repeated trips of less than five miles in temperatures below freezing.
7,500-Mile Intervals
Use 7,500-mile intervals if you primarily operate your vehicle under conditions
other than those listed above.
Following the Maintenance Log Charts
The scheduled maintenance log identifies the maintenance required at each
mileage interval and corresponding time interval based on mileage of 1,250
miles per month. If you drive more than 1,250 miles per month, you should
obtain maintenance at the indicated mileage interval rather than the indicated
time interval.
If you choose 5,000-mile intervals, follow the instructions below the light blue
bars, such as this one:
5,000 Miles or 4 Months
If you choose 7,500-mile intervals, follow the instructions below the dark blue
bars, such as this one:
7,500 Miles or 6 Months
At15,000-mile increments, the 5,000-mile and 7,500-mile intervals coincide.
Therefore, the colored bars appear together, as in this example:
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
