If your car overheats
Pull safely off the road, stop the engine,
and open the hood.
Then follow this procedure....
1. Check the fan belt to see whether it is
broken or loose. (Instructions for check¬
ing the tension are given in Section 6.)
2. Check the coolant reservoir. If it is dry,
add water to the reservoir while the
engine is running. Fill it about half full.
WARNING:
Do
not
remove
the
radiator cap especially when the engine
and radiator are hot. Scalding hot fluid
and steam may be blown out under
pressure,
which could cause serious
injury.
3. Check for obvious coolant leaks. Look
at the radiator, hoses, and under the car.
(The see-through reservoir may not give
an accurate indication of coolant loss
when the engine is overheated.)
4. If the fan belt is O.K. and there are no
obvious leaks, you may help the engine
cool down more quickly by running it
at a fast idle speed (about 1500 rpm)
for a few minutes.
5. After the engine temperature has cooled
to normal, again check the coolant level
in the reservoir. If necessary, bring it up
to half full again. Serious coolant loss
indicates a leak in the system. You
should
have
it checked
as soon as
possible at your Toyota dealer.
If you lose your keys
Many Toyota dealers can make a new key
if you can give them the master key
number.
See the suggestion on page 3 for writing
down the number on a card in your wallet.
If your keys are locked inside the car and
you can't get a duplicate, many Toyota
dealers can still open the door for you,
using their special tools. If you msut break
a window to get in, we suggest breaking the
smallest side window because it is the least
expensive
to
replace.
Be
extremely
cautious to avoid cuts from the glass.
