Before Driving
Winter Driving
Carry emergency gear, including tire chains, window scraper, flares, a
small shovel, jumper cables, a nd a small bag of sand or salt.
Ask your Toyota dealer to check the following: • Have the proper ratio of antifreeze in the radiator. Refer to Engine Coolant on P. 425.
• Inspect the battery and its cables . Cold reduces battery capacity.
• Use an engine oil appropriate for the lowest ambient temperatures that the vehicle will be driven in ( →P. 422).
• Inspect the ignition sy stem for damage and loose connections.
• Use washer fluid made with antifreeze ⎯but do not use engine cool-
ant antifreeze for washer fluid ( →P. 429).
●Do not use the parking brake in freezing weather as it may freeze. Instead,
shift to 1 or R with a manual transaxle and to P with an automatic transaxle.
Block the rear wheels.
● Remove snow before driving. Snow left on the windshield is dangerous as it
could obstruct vision.
● Do not apply excessive force to a window scraper when removing ice or fro-
zen snow on the mirror glass and windshield.
● Never use warm or hot water for removing snow or ice from windows and
mirrors as it could result in the glass cracking.
● Drive slowly. Braking performance can be adversely affected if snow or ice
adheres to the brake components. If this situation occurs, drive the vehicle
slowly, releasing the accelerator pedal and lightly applying the brakes sev-
eral times until the brake performance returns to normal.
