Do not use your parking brake when
there is a possibility it could freeze.
When parking, put the selector lever into
“P” and block the rear wheels. Do not use
the parking brake, or snow or water accu-
mulated in and around the parking brake
mechanism may freeze, making it hard to
release.
Keep ice and snow from accumulating
under the fenders.
Ice and snow built up under your fenders
can make steering difficult. During bad
winter driving, stop and check under the
fenders occasionally.
Depending on where you are driving,
we recommend you carry some emer-
gency equipment.
Some of the things you might put in the
vehicle are tire chains, window scraper,
bag of sand or salt, flares, small shovel,
jumper cables, etc.

Toyota does not recommend towing a
trailer with your Toyota. It is not de-
signed for trailer towing.
Getting more kilometers/mileage from a
liter/gallon of fuel is easy–just take it
easy. It will help make your vehicle last
longer, too. Here are some specific tips
on how to save money on both fuel and
repairs:
!
Keep your tires inflated at the cor-
rect pressure.
Underinflation causes
tire wear and wastes fuel. See page
213 in Section 8–2 for instructions.
!
Do not carry unneeded weight in
your vehicle.
Excess weight puts a
heavier load on the engine, causing
greater fuel consumption.
!
Accelerate
slowly
and
smoothly.
Avoid jackrabbit starts.
!
Avoid continuous speeding up and
slowing down.
Stop–and–go driving
wastes power.
!
Avoid
unnecessary
stopping
and
braking.
Maintain a steady pace. Try
to time the traffic signals so you only
need to stop as little as possible or
take advantage of through streets to
avoid traffic lights. Keep a proper dis-
tance from other vehicles to avoid sud-
den braking. This will also reduce wear
on your brakes.
!
Avoid heavy traffic or traffic jams
whenever possible.
