68GAUGES, METERS AND SERVICE REMINDER INDICATORS
The gauge indicates the approximate
quantity of fuel remaining in the tank
when the engine switch is on.
Nearly full—Needle at “F”
Nearly empty—Needle at “E”
It is a good idea to keep the tank over
1/4 full.
The needle moves when braking, acceler-
ating or making turns. This is caused by
the movement of the fuel in the tank.
If the fuel level approaches “E” or the low
fuel level warning light comes on, fill the
fuel tank as soon as possible.
On inclines or curves, due to the move-
ment of fuel in the tank, the fuel gauge
needle may fluctuate or the low fuel level
warning light may come on earlier than
usual.
On some models—
If the fuel tank is completely empty, the
malfunction indicator lamp comes on. Fill
the fuel tank immediately.
The indicator lamp goes off after driving
several times. If the indicator lamp does
not go off, contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional, as soon
as possible.The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature when the engine switch is
on. The engine operating temperature
will vary with changes in weather and
engine load.
If the needle moves into the red zone,
your engine is too hot. If your vehicle
overheats, stop your vehicle and allow the
engine to cool.
Your vehicle may overheat during severe
operating conditions, such as:
DDriving up a long hill on a hot day.
DReducing speed or stopping after high
speed driving.
DIdling for a long period with the air
conditioning on in stop−and−go traffic.
DTowingatrailer.
NOTICE
zDo not remove the thermostat in
the engine cooling system as this
may cause the engine to overheat.
The thermostat is designed to con-
trol the flow of coolant to keep the
temperature of the engine within
the specified operating range.
zDo not continue driving with an
overheated engine. See “If your ve-
hicle overheats” on page 148 in
Section 4.

This meter displays the odometer and
two trip meters.
1. Odometer—Shows the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
2. Two trip meters—Show two different
distances independently driven since
the last time each trip meter was set
to zero.
You can use one trip meter to calculate
the fuel economy and the other to
measure the distance on each trip. All
trip meter data is cancelled if the elec-
trical power source is disconnected.
3. Trip meter reset knob—Resets the two
trip meters to zero, and also change
the meter display.
To change the meter display, quickly
push and release the knob. The meter
display changes in the order from the
odometer to trip meter A to trip meter
B, then back to the odometer each
time you push.
To reset the trip meter A to zero, dis-
play the meter A reading, then push
and hold the knob until the meter is
set to zero. The same process can be
applied for resetting the trip meter B.The oil maintenance management sys-
tem (OMMS) is designed to inform you,
by means of a light, of the time to
change the engine oil and oil filter.
ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER CHANGE
Change the engine oil and oil filter in
either of the following cases:
DWhen the engine oil change reminder
light is lit.
DWhen the system is repaired.
DWhen the engine oil change reminder
light does not come on even if two
years have passed since the engine
oil was changed.
DWhen the engine oil change reminder
light does not come on even if you
have driven over 30000 km (18000
miles) since the engine oil was
changed.
The lighting timing will change according
to the driving condition.
Because engine oil deteriorates over
time, there are cases when it is neces-
sary to change the engine oil before
the engine oil change reminder light
comes on. In these cases, change the
engine oil and oil filter according to the
maintenance schedule. (For engine oil
maintenance intervals, see the separate
“Toyota Service Booklet” or “Toyota
Warranty Booklet”.)

Manual regeneration switch
With the DPF system manual regenera-
tion switch—
To start manual regeneration:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place with
the engine running.
Make sure that there are no flammable
materials near the exhaust pipe.
2. Shift the transmission into neutral
and apply the parking brake.
3. Push the manual regeneration
switch.
The DPF system indicator light and the
indicator light on the switch will change
from solid or rapid flashing to slow flash-
ing. The engine idle speed will increase.
In 15 to 40
minutes, manual regeneration
will be completed and the lights will go
off. The engine idle speed will be reduced.
: Differs in accordance with the outside
temperature.
Do not depress the accelerator or clutch
pedal after pressing the DPFsystem
manual regeneration switch. Doing so will
stop manual regeneration. If manual re-
generation is stopped, perform manual re-
generation again as soon as possible.
If the engine and exhaustsystem are hot,
such as after driving, manual regeneration
will take less time.
CAUTION
DBe careful not to touch the hot ex-
haust system and stay away from
exhaust gases. During regeneration,
the exhaust gases become hotter
than usual. Never leave flammable
items near the exhaust system.
DDo not drive, idle or park your ve-
hicle over anything that might burn
easily such as grass, leaves, paper
or rags.

INFORMATION BEFORE DRIVING YOUR TOYOTA11 3
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the system and
a fire hazard, observe the following
precautions:
zUse only diesel fuel.
zDo not drive for long periods of
time while the DPF system indicator
light is flashing.
zDo not use fuel other than the spe-
cified type.
zDo not use engine oil other than
the recommended type.
zDo not modify the exhaust pipe.
zOperating the vehicle when the en-
gine oil contains a significant
amount of diesel fuel may result in
damage to the engine. If a signifi-
cant amount of fuel is present,
change the oil as soon as possible.
zDo 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 cata-
lytic converter.
zDo not pull−or push−start your ve-
hicle.
zDo not turn off the engine switch
while the vehicle is moving.
zKeep your engine switch in good
running order. Malfunctions in the
engine electrical system or fuel sys-
tem could cause an extremely high
catalytic converter temperature.
zIf the engine becomes difficult to
start or stalls frequently, take your
vehicle in for a check−up to any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer,
or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
zTo ensure that the catalytic convert-
er and the entire emission control
system operate properly, your ve-
hicle must receive the periodic in-
spections required by the Toyota
Maintenance Schedule. For sched-
uled maintenance information, refer
to the “Toyota Service Booklet” or
“Toyota Warranty Booklet”.
