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”.)

ENGINE OIL CHANGE REMINDER LIGHT
This light comes on when the engine
switch is turned to the “ON” position. It
goes out after about 3 seconds. This indi-
cates that the system is functioning nor-
mally. If the light illuminates for 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds,
this indicates that the time to change the
engine oil is approaching.
If this light stays on this warns you to
change the engine oil and oil filter us-
ing appropriate replacements at your
earliest convenience. For more informa-
tion about oil grade and viscosity, see

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”.

FUNCTIONS OF ENGINE OIL
Engine oil has the primary functions of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the
engine, and plays a major role in main-
taining the engine in proper working order.
ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
It is normal that an engine should con-
sume some engine oil during normal
engine operation. The causes of oil
consumption in a normal engine are as
follows.
DOil is used to lubricate pistons, piston
rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil
is left on the cylinder wall when a pis-
ton moves downwards in the cylinder.
High negative pressure generated when
the vehicle is decelerating sucks some
of this oil into the combustion chamber.
This oil as well as some part of the oil
film left on the cylinder wall is burned
by the high temperature combustion
gases during the combustion process.
DOil is also used to lubricate the stems
of the intake valves. Some of this oil
is sucked into the combustion chamber
together with the intake air and is
burned along with the fuel. High tem-
perature exhaust gases also burn the
oil used to lubricate the exhaust valve
stems.
The amount of engine oil consumed de-
pends on the viscosity of the oil, the
quality of the oil and the conditions the
vehicle is driven under.
More oil is consumed by high−speed driv-
ing and frequent acceleration and decel-
eration.
A new engine consumes more oil, since
its pistons, piston rings and cylinder walls
have not become conditioned.
Oil consumption:Max. 1.0 L per 1000
km (1.1 qt./600 miles, 0.9 Imp. qt./600
miles)When judging the amount of oil con-
sumption, note that the oil may become
diluted and make it difficult to judge
the true level accurately.
As an example, if a vehicle is used for
repeated short trips, and consumes a nor-
mal amount of oil, the dipstick may not
show any drop in the oil level at all, even
after 1000 km (600 miles) or more. This
is because the oil is gradually becoming
diluted with fuel or moisture, making it
appear that the oil level has not changed.
The diluting ingredients evaporate out
when the vehicle is then driven at high
speeds, as on an expressway, making it
appear that oil is excessively consumed
after driving at high speeds.
IMPORTANCE OF ENGINE OIL LEVEL
CHECK
One of the most important points in prop-
er vehicle maintenance is to keep the en-
gine oil at the optimum level so that oil
function will not be impaired. Therefore, it
is essential that the oil level be checked
regularly. Toyota recommends that the oil
level be checked every time you refuel
the vehicle.
NOTICE
Failure to check the oil level regularly
could lead to serious engine trouble
due to insufficient oil.
For detailed information on oil level check,
see “Checking the engine oil level” on
page 188 in Section 7−2.
