mileage TOYOTA SOLARA 2001 Warranties & Maintenance Guides (in English)

INTRODUCTION3
Maintenance & Toyota Warranty Coverage
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 ser-
vice and a description of service and/or parts installation
performed. The scheduled maintenance log in this booklet is a
good place to record 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 mainte-
nance are not covered under warranty.
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 mainte-
nance or repairs are not covered under warranty.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 expla-
nation of any recommended maintenance not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota warranty coverages,
see the booklet entitled
2001 Owner’s Warranty
Information
in your vehicle’s glove box.

TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT
Genuine Toyota Parts & Accessories

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 built to 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 the date of installation, regardless of mileage, or the re-
mainder of any applicable New Vehicle Limited Warranty,
whichever provides greater coverage. Selected Toyota replace-
ment parts are covered by a lifetime warranty (see page 8).
Non- Genuine Toyota Parts — and any damage or failures result-
ing from their use — are not covered by any Toyota warranty.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 & Accessories
TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT7
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 are designed and manufac-
tured specifically for Toyota vehicles. In addition, they undergo
rigorous testing to ensure first- rate quality, precise fit and long-
term durability. Aftermarket accessories 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 the accessory is
installed at the time of new- vehicle purchase, coverage is extend-
ed to 36 months/36,000 miles. See your dealer for details. And
remember that Genuine Toyota Accessories can only be pur-
chased from an authorized Toyota dealership.

TOYOTA MAINTENANCE & REPAIR SUPPORT9
The reputation for quality and reliability was likely a key
reason behind your decision to buy a Toyota. That overall
quality is present in each of the components of your car or
truck, including the battery. When it’s time for a replacement,
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 designed into your Toyota,
a replacement battery must meet Toyota’s specifications for
Cold Cranking Amps (CCA) and Reserve Capacity (RC).
RC, a specification often not met by aftermarket brands, sup-
plies the power you need during high- demand conditions such
as driving in heavy traffic. RC is also what gives you the power
to operate electronic accessories with the engine off. By choos-
ing a TrueStart,™ you can be confident your battery will meet
your needs, every day.
Warranty coverage is another important consideration when
selecting a replacement battery. TrueStart™ batteries feature a
free replacement period of 18 months (regardless of mileage)
or the remainder of the Toyota New Vehicle Limited Warranty,whichever is longer. Following the free replacement period, war-
ranty coverage is prorated based on the battery’s time in use. See
your Toyota dealer for more details.
Don’ t entrust your Toyota’s performance to anything less than
the best: Genuine Toyota TrueStart™ Batteries.
WARNING: Battery posts, terminals and related acces-
sories contain lead and lead compounds, chemicals known
to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive
harm.
Wash hands after handling.

Extended Service Coverage
Toyota vehicle service agreements provide protection against
unexpected repairs for mechanical breakdown beyond the fac-
tory warranty.
1They also protect 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 agree-
ment coverage, each with a variety of time and mileage options.
2
Your Toyota dealer can help you select the coverage that best
meets your needs.
Pre-Paid Maintenance
An excellent way to make sure your Toyota receives the recom-
mended maintenance — and to protect yourself from increases
in vehicle service costs — is to pay for maintenance services in
advance.
Toyota Auto Care pre- paid maintenance plans are available
for both new and used vehicles. Benefits include oil- and- filter
changes, lubrication of key chassis parts and a 19- point vehicle
inspection at each service interval. In addition, you receive
24- hour roadside assistance, timed service reminders and a
computerized history of each service visit. The Premium Plan
(available for new vehicles) also includes tire rotations and
factory- recommended maintenance at service intervals of
15,000, 30,000 and 45,000 miles.
Toyota Auto Care plans offer two coverage levels as well as
several options for service intervals, time and mileage. Ask your
Toyota dealer to help you select the options that are best for you.
1Vehicle 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.

Determining Your Vehicle’s Maintenance Needs
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE LOGS17
Determining the Proper
Maintenance Interval
Depending on your circumstances, you should obtain mainte-
nance 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.
•Towing a trailer or using a car- top carrier.
•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 indi-
cated mileage interval rather than the indicated time interval.
If you choose 5,000- mile intervals, follow the maintenance
instructions shown below non- shaded headings such as this one:
5,000 Miles or 4 Months
If you choose 7, 500- mile intervals, follow the maintenance
instructions shown below shaded headings such as this one:
7, 500 Miles or 6 Months
At 15,000- mile increments, the 5,000- mile and 7, 500- mile
intervals coincide. Therefore, shaded and non- shaded headings
appear together, as in this example:
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
15,000 Miles or 12 Months
