Maintenance and care
AdBlue™ is used to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides in exhaust
gas. AdBlue™ is consumed in the process of driving. Therefore,
observe the following precautions.
● 1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp.qt.) of AdBlue™ is consumed every 1500 km
(932 miles). Normally, after a full refill, the vehicle can be driven for
approximately 15000 km (9321 miles) before all AdBlue™ is
depleted.
However, AdBlue™ may become completely depleted sooner
depending on driving conditions.
● When the possible driving range based on the remaining amount of
AdBlue™ reaches approximately 2400 km (1492 miles), the low
AdBlue™ level warning light turns on and a warning message is
displayed.
● When AdBlue™ is depleted, the engine cannot be restarted.
● If AdBlue™ is accidentally spilled while refilling, vehicle parts, paint,
etc. may be damaged.
When AdBlue™ needs to be refilled, have it refilled at any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
It may be a criminal offence to use a vehicle that does not consume
any reagent if it is required for the reduction of emissions.
■AdBlue™ warning light and warning message
When the AdBlue™ level is low,
the low AdBlue™ level warning
light turns on and a warning
message appears on the multi-
information display. ( P. 562)
When refilling AdBlue™ by
yourself in an emergency, be
sure to follow the correct refill-
ing procedures. ( P. 563)
