The digital clock indicates the time
with the ignition key at the ACCº or
ONº position. To reset the hour, de-
press the
Hº button. To reset the min-
utes, depress the Mº button. To ad-
just the time to a full hour, depreess
the :00º button
For example, if the :00º button is de-
pressed when the time is between
1:01-1:129, the time will change to 1:00. If the is between 1:30-1:59, the time will change to 2:00. When the instrument panel lights are turned on, the brightness of the time indi- cation will be reduced. Once the electrical power source has
been disconnected from the clock, the
time is automatically set to 1:00 (oneo'clock).

A large amount of unburned gasesflowing into the three-way
catalytic converter may cause it tooverheat and create a fire hazard. To prevent this and other damage,observe the following precautions:
Use only unleaded gasoline.
Do not drive with an extremelylow fuel level; running out of fuelcould cause the engine to mis-
fire, creating an excessive load
on the three-way catalytic con-verter.
Do not allow the engine to run at
idle speed for more than 20 min-utes.
Avoid racing the engine.
Do not push-start or pull-startyour vehicle.
Do not turn off the ignition while
the vehicle is moving.
NOTICEKeep your engine in good run-ning order. Malfunctions in the
engine electrical system, elec-tronic ignition system/distributorignition system or fuel systems
could cause an extremely high
three-way catalytic convertertemperature.
If the engine becomes difficult to
start or stalls frequently, take your
vehicle in for a check-up as soon
as possible. Remember, your
Toyota dealer knows your vehicleand its three-way catalytic
converter system best.
To ensure that the three-way cat-alytic converter and the entire
emission control system operate
properly, your vehicle must re-ceive the periodic inspections re-
quired by the Toyota Maintenance
Schedule. For scheduled mainte- nance information, refer to the
separate Owner's Manual Sup- plement/Maintenance Scheduleº.
CAUTION!
Avoid inhaling the engine exhaust.
It contains carbon monoxide,
which is a colorless and odorless
gas. It can cause unconsciousness
or even death.
Make sure the exhaust system has
no holes or loose connections. The
system should be checked from
time to time. If you hit something,
or notice a change in the sound of
the exhaust, have the system
checked immediately.
Do not run the engine in a garage or
enclosed area except for the time
needed to drive the vehicle in or
out. The exhaust gases cannot es-
cape, making this a particularly
dangerous situation.
Do not remain for a long time in a
parked vehicle with the engine run-
ning. If it is unavoidable, however,
do so only in an unconfined areaand adjust the heating or cooling
system to force outside air into the vehicle.

ABSº warning light
This light comes on when the ignition key is turned to the ONº position. After about
3 seconds, the light will go off.
If either of the following conditions occurs, this indicates a malfunction somewhere inthe parts monitored by the warning light
system. Contact your Toyota dealer as
soon as possible to service the vehicle. The light does not come on as de-
scribed above, or remains on.
The light comes on while driving. Even if the anti-lock brake system
should
fail, the brake system will still operate con-
ventionally. However, when the `ABS''
warning light is on (and the brake system
warning light is off), the anti-lock brake
system is not assisting brake perfor-mance so that the wheels can lock-up
during sudden braking or braking on slip-
pery road surfaces. Have your vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible.The brake pad wear limit indicators on your disc brakes give a warning noise
when the brake pads are worn to
where replacement is required.
If you hear a squealing or scraping noise
while driving, have the brake pads
checked and replaced by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. Expensive ro-
tor damage can result if the pads are not
replaced when necessary.

Before making these checks, make sure
you have followed the correct starting pro-

If the engine is not turning over or is
turning over too slowlyÐ
1. Check that the battery terminals are
tight and clean.

If the light is O.K., but the engine still will
not start, it needs adjustment or repair.
Call a Toyota dealer or qualified repair shop.

speed but will not startÐ
1. Check that all the push-on connectors are tight. (For example, connections at the spark plugs, ignition coil and/or dis-
tributor)
