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”.

142IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY
Before making these checks, make sure
you have followed the correct starting pro-
cedure given in “How to start the engine”
on page 124 in Section 3 and that you
have sufficient fuel.
If the engine is not turning over or is
turning over too slowly—
1. Check that the battery terminals are
tight and clean.
2. If the battery terminals are O.K., switch
on the interior light.
3. If the light is out, dim or goes out
when the starter is cranked, the battery
is discharged. You may try jump start-
ing. See “(c) Jump starting” on page
143 for further instructions.
If the light is O.K., but the engine still will
not start, it needs adjustment or repair.
Call any authorized Toyota dealer or re-
pairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
NOTICE
Do not pull−or push−start the ve-
hicle. It may damage the vehicle or
cause a collision when the engine
starts. Also, the catalytic converter
may overheat and become a fire haz-
ard.
If the engine turns over at its normal
speed but will not start—
1. If you are starting the engine that has
died from an empty tank, you may
have needed to bleed the fuelsystem
before cranking the engine. See “(b)
Bleeding the fuelsystem” onpage 142
for further instructions.
2. If the fuel system is O.K., but the
engine still will not start, it needs ad-
justment or repair. Call any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped profession-
al, for assistance.
If you run out of fuel and the engine
dies, the engine may not restart after
refueling. In such case, operate the
priming pump until you feel more resis-
tance.

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.
