The starting process is activated 
automatically for a short time and 
stops as soon as the engine starts.
Most of the indicator and warning 
lamps in the instrument cluster are 
illuminated for different lengths of 
time.
Depending on the engine version, 
full drive power may only be availa-
ble approx. 30 seconds after start-
ing the engine. In this case, the 
vehicle will not accelerate in the 
usual way.
When drive-ready state is switched 
on, the revolution counter shows 
the current engine speed. Safety notes
WARNING
A blocked exhaust pipe or inadequate 
ventilation can allow harmful exhaust 
fumes to enter the vehicle. The 
exhaust fumes contain pollutants 
which are colourless and odourless. 
In enclosed spaces, the exhaust 
fumes can also build up outside the 
vehicle. There is a danger of fatal 
injury. Keep the exhaust pipe clear 
and ensure sufficient ventilation.
WARNING
An unsecured vehicle can start mov-
ing and rolling away. There is a dan-
ger of accidents. Before leaving the 
vehicle, secure it to prevent it from 
rolling away.
Observe the following to ensure that 
the vehicle is secured against rolling 
away:
• Apply the parking brake.
• Turn the front wheels towards the 
kerb on upward or downward gradi-
ents.
• Additionally secure the vehicle on 
upward or downward gradients, for 
example with a chock.
NOTICE
Repeated start attempts or starting 
several times in quick succession 
means that fuel is not burned or is 
inadequately burned. The catalytic 
converter can overheat. There is a 
danger of damage to property. Avoid 
repeatedly starting in quick succes-
sion.

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.

Electronic oil measurement has two 
measurement principles:
• Monitoring.
• Detailed measurement.
When frequently making short trips 
or using a dynamic driving style, for 
example taking corners at high 
speed, regularly perform a detailed 
measurement.
■Principle
The engine oil level is electronically 
monitored during the journey and 
can be shown on the Control Dis-

If the engine oil level is outside its 
permissible operating range, a 
vehicle message is shown.
■Operating requirements
A current measurement is available 
after approximately 30 minutes of 
normal driving.

When frequently making short trips 
or using a dynamic driving style, it 
may not be possible to calculate a 
measurement. In this case, the 
measurement for the last, suffi-
ciently long journey is displayed.
