Maintenance and Care
WARNING
■Do not perform maintenance work if you lack sufficient knowledge and
experience or the proper tools and equipment to do the work. Have
maintenance work done by a qualified technician
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle is dangerous if not done prop-
erly. You can be seriously injured while performing some maintenance pro-
cedures.
■ If you must run the engine while working under the hood, make certain
that you remove all jewelry (especially rings, bracelets, watches, and
necklaces) and all neckties, scarves, and similar loose clothing before
getting near the engine or cooling fan which may turn on unexpectedly
Working under the hood with the engine running is dangerous. It becomes
even more dangerous when you wear jewelry or loose clothing.
Either can become entangled in moving parts and result in injury.
■ Switch the ignition to off and make sure the fan is not running
before attempting to work near the cooling fan
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could
continue running indefinitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine
compartment temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously
injured.
■ Do not leave items in the engine compartment
After you have finished checking or doing servicing in the engine compart-
ment, do not forget and leave items such as tools or rags in the engine com-
partment.
Tools or other items left in the engine compartment could cause engine
damage or a fire leading to an unexpected accident.

WARNING
■Always check that the hood is closed and securely locked
A hood that is not closed and securely locked is dangerous as it could fly
open while the vehicle is moving and block the driver’s vision which could
result in a serious accident.
NOTICE
When closing the hood, do not push it excessively such as by applying your
weight. Otherwise, the hood could be deformed.

WARNING
■Do not use a match or live flame in the engine compartment. DO NOT
ADD COOLANT WHEN THE ENGINE IS HOT
A hot engine is dangerous. If the engine has been running, parts of the
engine compartment can become very hot. You could be burned. Carefully
inspect the engine coolant in the coolant reservoir, but do not open it.
■ Switch the ignition to off and make sure the fan is not running
before attempting to work near the cooling fan
Working near the cooling fan when it is running is dangerous. The fan could
continue running indefinitely even if the engine has stopped and the engine
compartment temperature is high. You could be hit by the fan and seriously
injured.
■ Do not remove either cooling system cap when the engine and
radiator are hot
When the engine and radiator are hot, scalding coolant and steam may
shoot out under pressure and cause serious injury.

Brake/Clutch Fluid
The brakes and clutch draw fluid
from the same reservoir.
Inspect the fluid level in the reser-
voir regularly. It should be kept
between the MAX and MIN lines.
The level normally drops with
accumulated distance, a condition
associated with wear of brake and
clutch linings. If it is excessively
low, have the brake/clutch system
inspected by your Toyota dealer.
Inspecting Brake/Clutch Fluid Level
WARNING
■If the brake/clutch fluid level is low, have the brakes inspected
A low brake/clutch fluid level is dangerous.
A low level could indicate brake lining wear or a brake system leak which
could cause the brakes to fail and lead to an accident.
