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 per 1000 km (1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 lmp.qt./
600 miles)
If you consume more than 1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 lmp. 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 (diesel engine only)
The oil change system should be reset. Perform the following procedures:
Vehicles without smart entry & start system

ning.
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
While pressing the trip meter reset button, set the engine switch to
the “ON” position (but do not start the engine because otherwise
the reset mode will be canceled). Continue to press and hold the
button until the multi-information display indicates that the reset is
complete.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system

CAUTION
Used engine oil
Used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may
cause skin disorders such as inflammation or skin cancer, so care should
be taken to avoid prolonged and repeated contact. To remove used engine
oil from your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
Dispose of used oil and filters only in a safe and acceptable manner. Do
not dispose of used oil and filters in household trash, in sewers or onto the
ground. Call any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional, service station or auto parts store for
information concerning recycling or disposal.
Do not leave used engine oil within the reach of children.
NOTICE
To prevent serious engine damage
Check the oil level on regular basis.
When replacing the engine oil
Be careful not to spill engine oil on the vehicle components.
Avoid overfilling, as the engine could be damaged.
Check the oil level on the dipstick every time you refill the vehicle.
Be sure the engine oil filler cap is properly tightened.
Engine oil (1AD-FTV
with DPF catalytic converter and 2AD-FHV
