water, which are harmless to health and the environment.The AdBlue® is contained in a special tank holding about 17 litres. Its capacity allows a driving range of approximately 6,000 km (3,700 miles), (which may vary considerably depending on your driving style and the vehicle). An alert system is automatically triggered when the remaining range reaches 2,400 km (1,500 miles), i.e. once the reserve level has been reached.Several alerts are triggered successively during the remaining 2,400 km (1,500 miles) before the tank is empty and the vehicle blocked.
NOTIC E
For more information on the Warning and indicator lamps and the associated alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the corresponding sections.
WARNI NG
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system required by legislation prevents starting of the engine.If the SCR system is faulty, the level of emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet
the Euro 6 standard: the vehicle becomes polluting.
In the event of a confirmed SCR system malfunction, it is essential to visit a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop. After 1,100 km (680 miles), a device is automatically activated to prevent the engine from starting.In both cases, a range indicator indicates the distance that can be travelled before the vehicle is stopped.
NOTIC E
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below around -11°C.The SCR system includes a heater for the AdBlue® tank, allowing you to continue driving in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating that the reserve level has been reached.
WARNI NG
In order to ensure that the SCR system operates correctly:– Use only AdBlue® fluid that meets the ISO 22241 standard.– Never transfer AdBlue® to another container: it would lose its purity.
– Never dilute AdBlue® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue® from a TOYOTA dealer or in a qualified workshop.
NOTIC E
You can also visit a service station equipped with AdBlue® pumps specially designed for private vehicles.
WARNI NG
Never top up from an AdBlue® dispenser reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Storage recommendations
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a cool area and protected from direct sunlight.Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for at least a year.If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has completely thawed out in the ambient air.
WARNI NG
Never store AdBlue® containers in your vehicle.

Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when kept in a cool place).In the event of contact with the skin, wash the affected area with soap and running water. In the event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse the eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if you feel a persistent burning sensation or irritation.If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth with clean water and then drink plenty of water.In certain conditions (high temperature, for example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia vapours have an irritant effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
WARNI NG
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of children, in its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is above -11 °C. Otherwise the AdBlue® may be frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area
for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.
WARNI NG
Never put the AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel tank.
WARNI NG
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are any spillages on the bodywork, rinse immediately with cold water or wipe with a damp cloth.If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a sponge and hot water.
WARNI NG
Important: in the event of a top-up after a breakdown because of a lack of AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5 minutes before switching on the ignition, without opening the driver’s door, unlocking the vehicle, introducing the key into the ignition switch, or introducing the key of the “Keyless Entry and Starting ” system into the passenger compartment.Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 seconds before starting the engine.

Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions concerning your audio system.With the engine off, the audio system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time depends on the state of charge of the battery.
The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode and switches off to avoid discharging the vehicle's battery.► Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the charge of the battery.The message "the audio system is overheated" is displayed onscreen.To protect the installation if the ambient temperature is too high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode, in which the volume may be decreased or the CD player stopped.► Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.
Radio
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD, etc.).For optimal listening quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience and Loudness) can be adjusted to different audio sources, resulting in audible differences when switching
between sources (radio, CD, etc.).► Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience and Loudness) are appropriate to the sources being listened to. We recommend setting the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance and Le-Ri balance) to the middle position, setting the musical ambience to "None", setting loudness correction to "Active" in CD mode and "Inactive" in Radio mode.
