The general maintenance items listed below should be inspected or performed at the intervals specified in the "Owner's Warranty Information Booklet" or "Owner's Manual Supplement/Scheduled Maintenance Guide". Routine attention to these areas helps maintain the Toyota Tacoma in proper operating condition. If you notice an unusual condition, deterioration, or any other problem during an inspection, it is recommended that you consult your Toyota dealer or a qualified service facility for advice and appropriate service.

WARNING

If the engine is operating

Before carrying out maintenance checks in or around the engine compartment, turn the engine off and make sure the work area has adequate ventilation. Do not begin an inspection while conditions could expose you to moving components, exhaust gases, or other hazards associated with an operating engine.
