Maintenance and care
C-HR_OM_Europe_OM10528E
WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may 
move suddenly, become hot, or become el ectrically energized. To avoid death 
or serious injury, observe the following precautions. 
■ When working on the engine compartment 
● Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan and engine 
drive belt. 
● Be careful not to touch the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, etc., right 
after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids may also be hot. 
● Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and rags, in the 
engine compartment. 
● Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or the bat- 
tery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable. 
● Be extremely cautious when working on the battery. It contains poisonous 
and corrosive sulfuric acid. 
● Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and damage 
painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush the 
affected area with clean water immediately. 
If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor. 
■ When working near the electric cooling fans or radiator grille 
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: Be sure the engine switch is 
off. With the engine switch in the “ON” position, the electric cooling fan may 
automatically start to run if the air  conditioning is on and/or the coolant tem- 
perature is high. ( P. 625) 
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Be sure the engine switch is off. 
With the engine switch in IGNITION ON mode, the electric cooling fan may 
automatically start to run if the air  conditioning is on and/or the coolant tem- 
perature is high. ( P. 625) 
■ Safety glasses 
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc., 
from getting in your eyes.

■Engine oil consumption 
A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the following 
situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be 
refilled in between oil maintenance intervals. 
● When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or 
after replacing the engine 
● If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used 
● When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing, or 
when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently 
● When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently 
through heavy traffic 
■ After changing the engine oil 
The engine oil maintenance data should be reset. Perform the following pro- 
cedures: 
Switch the display to the trip meter “A” when the engine is running.  
( P. 122) 
Turn the engine switch off.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system:  
While pressing the “TRIP” switch ( P. 122), turn the engine switch to the 
“ON” position (do not start the engine because the reset mode will be can- 
celed). Continue to press and hold the  switch until the trip meter displays 
“00000”. 
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system:  
While pressing the “TRIP” switch ( P. 122), turn the engine switch to the 
IGNITION ON mode (do not start the engine because the reset mode will
be canceled). Continue to press and hold the switch until the trip meter dis- 
plays “00000”.

■How to initialize the tire pressure warning system 
Park the vehicle in a safe place and turn the engine switch to the 
“LOCK” position (vehicles without a smart entry & start system) 
or off (vehicles with a smart entry & start system).
Initialization cannot be performed while the vehicle is moving.
Adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified cold tire inflation 
pressure level. ( P. 772)
Make sure to adjust the tire pressure to the specified cold tire inflation 
pressure level. The tire pressure warning system will operate based on 
this pressure level.
Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a 
smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with 
a smart entry & start system).
Vehicles with monochrome display 
Press the “DISP” switch until   appears. ( P. 124)
Press and hold the “DISP” switch to enter the adjustment mode.
Press the “DISP” switch until the menu of tire pressure warning 
system appears. 
Press and hold the “DISP” switch to display the menu.
Press and hold the “DISP”
switch while the cursor is on 
“SET” to initialize the system. 
If initialization is completed, 
the tire pressure warning 
light will blink 3 times.

■ The initialization operation 
● Make sure to carry out initialization after adjusting the tire inflation pressure.  
Also, make sure the tires are cold before carrying out initialization or tire
inflation pressure adjustment. 
● If you have accidentally turned the engine switch to the “LOCK” position 
(vehicles without a smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with a smart
entry & start system) during initialization, it is not necessary to press the 
reset switch again as initialization will restart automatically when the engine 
switch has been turned to IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart entry
& start system) or engine switch to the “ON” position (vehicles without a 
smart entry & start system) for the next time.  
● If you accidentally press the reset switch when initialization is not necessary, 
adjust the tire inflation pressure to the specified level when the tires are 
cold, and conduct initialization again. 
■ Warning performance of the tire pressure warning system 
The warning of the tire pressure warning system will change in accordance 
with the conditions under which it was initialized. For this reason, the system
may give a warning even if the tire pressure does not reach a low enough 
level, or if the pressure is higher than the pressure that was adjusted to when 
the system was initialized. 
■ When initialization of the tire pressure warning system has failed 
Initialization can be completed in a few minutes. However, in the following 
cases, the settings have not been recorded and the system will not operate 
properly. If repeated attempts to record tire inflation pressure settings are 
unsuccessful, have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible. 
● When operating the initialization of the system, the tire pressure warning 
light does not blink 3 times and the setting message does not appear on the
multi-information display. 
● After driving for a certain period of time since the initialization has been 
completed, the warning light comes on after blinking for 1 minute. 
■ Registering ID codes 
The ID codes of the tire pressure warning valve and transmitters for two sets 
of wheels can be registered. 
It is not necessary to register the ID codes when replacing normal tires with 
snow tires, if the ID codes for the wheels of both normal tires and snow tires
are registered beforehand. 
For information about changing ID codes, ask any authorized Toyota retailer 
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
