Low level Full level
Add oil O.K. Too full
With the engine at operating tempera-
ture and turned off, check the oil level
on the dipstick.
1. To get a correct reading, the vehicle
should be on level ground. After warm-
ing up the engine and turning it off,
wait more than five minutes for the oil
to drain back into the bottom of the
engine.
2. Pull the dipstick out, hold a rag under
the end and wipe it clean.
3. Reinsert the dipstick—push it in as far
as it will go, or the reading will not be
correct.
4. Pull the dipstick out and look at the oil
level while holding a rag under the
end.
NOTICE
Be careful not to drop engine oil on
the vehicle components.
If the oil level is below or only slightly
above the low level, add engine oil of
the same type as already in the engine.
Remove the oil filler capand add engine
oil in small quantities at a time, checking
the dipstick. We recommend that you use
a funnel when adding oil.The approximate quantity of oil needed to
raise the level between low and full on the
dipstick is indicated as follows:
1.9L(2.0qt.,1.7Imp.qt.)
For the engine oil capacity, see “Service
specifications” on page 224 in Section 8.
When the level reaches within the correct
range, install the filler cap hand−tight.
NOTICE
zBe careful not to spill engine oil on
the vehicle components.
zAvoid overfilling, or the engine
could be damaged.
zCheck the oil level on the dipstick
once again after adding the oil.

ENGINE OIL SELECTION
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in
your Toyota vehicle. Toyota recommends
the use of approved “Toyota Genuine
Motor Oil”. Another motor oil of matching
quality can also be used.
Oil grade:
ACEA C2
NOTICE
Using engine oil other than ACEA C2
may damage the catalytic converter.
Recommended viscosity (SAE):
Temperature range anticipated before
next oil change
Preferred
SAE 0W−30 is filled into your Toyota
vehicle at manufacturing, and the best
choice for good fuel economy and good
starting in cold weather.Oil viscosity (0W−30 is explained here as
an example):
The0Win0W−30 indicates the character-
istic of the oil which allows cold startabil-
ity. Oils with a lower value before the W
allow for easier starting of the engine in
cold weather.
The30in0W−30 indicates the viscosity
characteristic of the oil when the oil is at
high temperature. An oil with a higher vis-
cosity (one with a higher value) may be
better suited if the vehicle is operated at
high speeds, or under extreme load condi-
tions.

198DO−IT−YOURSELF MAINTENANCE: Engine and Chassis
To ensure excellent lubrication perfor-
mance for your engine, Toyota recom-
mends the use of “Toyota Genuine Motor
Oil”, which has been specifically tested
and approved for all Toyota engines.
Please contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer for further details about
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil”. Other motor
oils of matching quality also be used.Look at the see−through coolant reser-
voir when the engine is cold. The cool-
ant level is satisfactory if it is between
the “FULL” and “LOW” lines on the
reservoir. If the level is low, add the
coolant. (For the coolant type, see
“Coolant type selection” described be-
low.)
The coolant level in the reservoir will vary
with engine temperature. However, if the
level is on or below the “LOW” line, add
coolant. Bring the level up to the “FULL”
line.
If the coolant level drops within a short
time after replenishing, there may be a
leak in the system. Visually check the
radiator, hoses, radiator cap and drain
cock and water pump.
If you can find no leak, have any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional,
test the cap pressure and check for leaks
in the cooling system.
CAUTION
To prevent burning yourself, do not
remove the radiator cap when the en-
gine is hot.
