This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
Before refuelling, observe the notes
on fuel quality, see page 307.
When refuelling, insert the filler
nozzle fully into the filler neck. Lift-
ing the filler nozzle during refuelling
results in the following:
The fuel supply being cut off pre-
maturely.
Fuel vapour and fumes being
recovered less effectively.
The fuel tank is full when the filler
nozzle cuts out for the first time.
Please comply with the safety regu-
lations displayed at filling stations.1Briefly press the rear edge of
the fuel filler flap.

Safety notes
NOTICE
If the range drops below 50 km, 30
miles, the engine may no longer be
supplied with sufficient fuel. Engine
function is no longer ensured. There
is a danger of damage to property.
Refuel in good time.
NOTICE
Fuels are poisonous and aggressive.
Overfilling the fuel tank can damage
the fuel system. If fuel comes into
contact with paintwork, it can damage
them. This pollutes the environment.
There is a danger of damage to prop-
erty. Avoid overfilling.

A tyre's condition and inflation pres-
sure influence the following:
• Lifetime of the tyre.
• Driving safety.
• Driving comfort.
• Fuel consumption.The tyre inflation pressures are
shown on the door pillar of the
driver's door.
The tyre inflation pressure data
applies to the tyre sizes and recom-
mended tyre makes which have
been classified by the vehicle man-
ufacturer as suitable for the respec-
tive vehicle type.
If the tyre's speed code cannot be
found, then the tyre inflation pres-
sure for the corresponding tyre size

A tyre with too little or no tyre inflation
pressure can heat up significantly and
sustain damage. Driving properties,
for example steering and braking, will
be impaired as a result. There is a
danger of accidents. Check the tyre

Depending on the region, many fill-
ing stations sell fuel that is adapted
to winter or summer conditions.
Fuel that is sold in winter facilitates
cold starting, for example.
For optimal fuel consumption, the
petrol should be sulphur-free or low
in sulphur content.
Fuels labelled on the pump as con-
taining metal must not be used. ClosingService products

You can fill up with fuels with a
maximum ethanol content of 25 %,
for example E10 or E25.
The engine has knock control. This
means that different petrol grades
can be used.
Super, RON 95.
Unleaded petrol, RON 91.
Engine oil consumption depends on
the driving style and operating con-
ditions.
Therefore check the engine oil level
regularly each time you fill up with
fuel by taking a detailed measure-
ment.
Engine oil consumption can be
increased, for example in the fol-
lowing situations:
• Dynamic driving style.
• Running in the engine. Safety notes
NOTICE
Even small quantities of the wrong
fuel or wrong fuel additives can dam-
age the fuel system and engine. In
addition, the catalytic converter will be
permanently damaged. There is a
danger of damage to property. Do not
use the following fuel or additives with
petrol engines:
• Leaded petrol.
After filling the wrong fuel, do not
press the start/stop button. Contact
any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
• Metallic additives, for example
manganese or iron.
NOTICE
Incorrect fuels can damage the fuel
system and engine. There is a danger
of damage to property. Do not refuel
with fuel with a higher ethanol content
than recommended. Do not refuel
with fuel containing methanol, for
example M5 to M100.
NOTICE
Fuel below the specified minimum
quality can adversely affect engine
function or lead to engine damage.
There is a danger of damage to prop-
erty. Do not refuel with petrol below
the specified minimum quality.

Viscosity classes with a high vis-
cosity grade can increase fuel con-
sumption.
Additional information on suitable
oil specifications and viscosity
classes of engine oils can be
obtained from any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
The manufacturer of the vehicle
recommends having the engine oil
changed by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Coolant is a mixture of water and
an additive.
Not all commercially available addi-
tives are suitable for the vehicle. Information regarding suitable addi-
tives is available from any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
Vehicles with a petrol engine have
two cooling circuits. Always check
the coolant levels of both coolant
tanks and top up if necessary.
The coolant level is shown by Max
marks in the filler neck of the cool-
ant tank.
Depending on the engine version,
the coolant tank is located on the
right or left of the engine compart-
ment, see page 305.
