Vehicle identification

■ Vehicle identification num-

ber

The vehicle identification num-

ber (VIN) is the legal identifier

for your vehicle. This is the pri-

mary identification number for

your Toyota. It is used in regis-

tering the ownership of your

vehicle.

This number is also on the Certi-

fication Regulation Label.

This number is stamped on the

top left of the instrument panel.

■ Engine number

On some models, this number is

also stamped under the right-

hand front seat.

The engine number is stamped

on the engine block as shown.

■Recommendation of the use of

low emissions gasoline

Fuel information

Gasolines containing oxygenates

such as ethers and ethanol, as well

as reformulated gasolines, are avail-

able in some cities. These fuels are

typically acceptable for use, provid-

ing they meet other fuel require-

ments.

You must only use unleaded

gasoline in your vehicle.

Select octane rating 87

(Research Octane Number

91) or higher. Use of

unleaded gasoline with an

octane rating lower than 87

may result in engine knock-

ing. Persistent knocking

can lead to engine damage.

Toyota recommends these fuels,

since the formulations allow for

reduced vehicle emissions.

■Non-recommendation of the

use of blended gasoline

●Use only gasoline containing up to

15% ethanol.

DO NOT use any flex-fuel or gas-

oline that could contain more than

15% ethanol, including from any

pump labeled E30 (30% ethanol

At minimum, the gasoline you

use should meet the specifica-

tions of ASTM D4814 in the

U.S.A..

Toyota dealer.

more than 15% ethanol).

■Recommendation of the use of

gasoline containing detergent

additives

●Toyota recommends the use of

gasoline that contains detergent

additives to avoid the build-up of

engine deposits.

●If you use gasohol in your vehicle,

be sure that it has an octane rat-

ing no lower than 87.

●All gasoline sold in the U.S.A. con-

tains minimum detergent additives

to clean and/or keep clean intake

systems, per EPA’s lowest addi-

tives concentration program.

●Toyota does not recommend the

use of gasoline containing metha-

nol.

■Non-recommendation of the

use of gasoline containing MMT

●Toyota strongly recommends the

use of Top Tier Detergent Gaso-

line. For more information on Top

Tier Detergent Gasoline and a list

of marketers, please go to the offi-

cial website www.toptiergas.com.

Some gasoline contains an octane

enhancing additive called MMT

(Methylcyclopentadienyl Manga-

nese Tricarbonyl).

Toyota does not recommend the use

677

9-1. Specifications

of gasoline that contains MMT. If

fuel containing MMT is used, your

emission control system may be

adversely affected.

■When refueling with gasohol

Take care not to spill gasohol. It

can damage your vehicle’s paint.

The malfunction indicator lamp on

the instrument cluster may come on.

If this happens, contact your Toyota

dealer for service.

■If your engine knocks

●Consult your Toyota dealer.

●You may occasionally notice light

knocking for a short time while

accelerating or driving uphill. This

is normal and there is no need for

concern.

NOTICE

■Notice on fuel quality

●Do not use improper fuels. If

improper fuels are used, the

engine will be damaged.

●Do not use leaded gasoline.

Leaded gasoline can cause

damage to your vehicle’s three-

way catalytic converters caus-

ing the emission control system

to malfunction.

●Do not use gasohol other than

the type previously stated.

Other gasohol may cause fuel

system damage or vehicle per-

formance problems.

●Using unleaded gasoline with

an octane number or rating

lower than the level previously

stated will cause persistent

heavy knocking.

At worst, this will lead to engine

damage.

9

■Fuel-related poor driveability

If poor driveability (poor hot start-

ing, vaporization, engine knock-

ing, etc.) is encountered after

using a different type of fuel, dis-

continue the use of that type of

fuel.

Uniform Tire Quality

Grading

The relative performance of tires

depends upon the actual conditions

of their use. Performance may differ

significantly from the norm due to

variations in driving habits, service

practices and differences in road

characteristics and climate.

This information has been pre-

pared in accordance with regu-

lations issued by the National

Highway Traffic Safety Adminis-

tration of the U.S. Department of

Transportation.

■ Traction AA, A, B, C

The traction grades, from high-

est to lowest, are AA, A, B and

C, and they represent the tire’s

ability to stop on wet pavement

as measured under controlled

conditions on specified govern-

ment test surfaces of asphalt

and concrete.

It provides the purchasers

and/or prospective purchasers

of Toyota vehicles with informa-

tion on uniform tire quality grad-

ing.

Your Toyota dealer will help answer

any questions you may have as you

read this information.

A tire marked C may have poor

traction performance.

■ DOT quality grades

Warning: The traction grade

assigned to this tire is based on

braking (straight ahead) traction

tests and does not include corner-

ing (turning) traction.

All passenger vehicle tires must

conform to Federal Safety

Requirements in addition to

these grades. Quality grades

can be found where applicable

performance which all passenger

car tires must meet under the Fed-

eral Motor Vehicle Safety Standard

No. 109.

■ Temperature A, B, C

The temperature grades are A

(the highest), B, and C, repre-

senting the tire’s resistance to

the generation of heat and its

ability to dissipate heat when

tested under controlled condi-

tions on a specified indoor labo-

ratory test wheel.

Grades B and A represent higher

levels of performance on the labo-

ratory test wheel than the minimum

required by law.

Warning: The temperature grades

of a tire assume that it is properly

inflated and not overloaded.

Sustained high temperature can

cause the material of the tire to

degenerate and reduce tire life, and

excessive temperature can lead to

sudden tire failure.

Excessive speed, underinflation, or

excessive loading, either sepa-

rately or in combination, can cause

heat buildup and possible tire fail-

ure.

Grade C corresponds to a level of
