Do not idle or park your vehicle
over anything that might burn easi-
ly such as grass, leaves, paper or
rags.
NOTICE
A large amount of unburned gases
flowing into the three–way catalytic
converter may cause it to overheat
and create a fire hazard. To prevent
this and other damage, observe the
following precautions:
_ Use only unleaded gasoline.
_ Do not drive with an extremely low
fuel level; running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, creat-
ing an excessive load on the three–
way catalytic converter.
_ Do not allow the engine to run at
idle speed for more than 20 min-
utes.

_ Avoid racing the engine.
_ Do not push–start or pull–start your
vehicle.
_ Do not turn off the ignition while
the vehicle is moving.
_ Keep your engine in good running
order. Malfunctions in the engine
electrical system, electric ignition
system or fuel system could cause
an extremely high three–way cata-
lytic converter temperature.
_ If the engine becomes difficult to
start or stalls frequently, take your
vehicle in for a check–up as soon
as possible. Remember, your Toyota
dealer knows your vehicle and its
three–way catalytic converter sys-
tem best.

_ To ensure that the three–way cata-
lytic converter and the entire emis-
sion control system operate proper-
ly, your vehicle must receive the
periodic inspections required by the
Toyota Maintenance Schedule. For
scheduled maintenance information,
refer to the "Scheduled Maintenance
Guide" or "Owner's Manual Supple-
ment".
