3966-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
HILUX_OM_OM0K219E_(EE)
You may drain the fuel filter yourself. However, as the operation is dif-
ficult, we recommend having it drained by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional. Even if you decide to drain it yourself, contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
The water in the fuel filter needs to be drained if the buzzer sounds (if
equipped) and the fuel system warning light flashes. (→P. 451)
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
Place a small tray under the drain plug or drain hose to catch the
water and any fuel that comes out.
Perform the draining as shown in the illustration.
Turn the drain plug counter-
clockwise about 2 to 2 1/2
turns.
Loosening more than this will
cause water oozing from around
the drain plug.
Operate the priming pump
until fuel begins to run out.
After draining, tighten the drain plug by hand.

■If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on while driving
For some models, malfunction indicator lamp will come on if the fuel tank
becomes completely empty. If the fuel tank is empty, refuel the vehicle imme-
diately. The malfunction indicator lamp will go off after several trips.
If the malfunction indicator lamp does not go off, contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional
as soon as possible.
■ Key reminder buzzer
The buzzer indicates that the key has not been removed with the engine off
and the driver’s door opened.
■ If the DPF system warning lig ht comes on (if equipped)
The deposit collected in the filter needs to be regenerated.
To regenerate the filter, the following driving methods are recommended
*:
● By driving continuously (for example, at around 60 km/h [37 mph] for
approximately 20 minutes).
● By avoiding short trips, or by driv ing continuously (leaving the engine run-
ning for long periods of time).
The DPF system warning light will extinguish when regeneration is complete.
However, if this driving cannot be carried out, or if the light does not extin-
guish even after driving, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional imme-
diately.
For details of the DPF system. ( →P. 238)
*: When driving, pay sufficient attention to weather, road conditions, terrain
and traffic conditions, and drive according to traffic laws.

CAUTION
■If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on (vehi-
cles with VSC system)
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional. The vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the
ABS system may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
NOTICE
■If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on when the boost pressure in
the turbocharger is abnormally high (diesel engine)
Never drive at high speed or race the engine even after the lamp goes off.
■
If the fuel system warning light flashes (diesel engine)
Never drive the vehicle with the warn ing light flashing. Continued driving
with water accumulated in the fuel filter will damage the fuel injection pump.
