Engine oil consumption
The amount of engine oil consumed depends on the oil viscosity, the
quality of the oil and the way the vehicle is driven.
More oil is consumed under driving conditions such as high speeds and
frequent acceleration and deceleration.
A new engine consumes more oil.
When judging the amount of oil consumption, keep in mind that the oil
may have become diluted, making it difficult to judge the true level accu-
rately.
Oil consumption: Max. 1.0 L/1000 km (1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 Imp.qt./
600 miles)
If your vehicle consumes more than 1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp.qt.) every
1000 km (600 miles), contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.
After changing the engine oil
The engine oil maintenance data should be reset. Perform the following pro-
cedures:
Switch the display to the trip meter A (P. 178) when the engine is
in the “ON” position.
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
While pressing the odometer/trip meter display change button
(P.178), turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (do not start
the engine because reset mode will be canceled). Continue to
press and hold the button for more than one second after the trip
meter displays “000000”.
