effect on the vehicle's road holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the braking and road holding performance of the vehicle. It is recommended to regularly check the condition of the tyres (tread and sidewalls) and wheel rims as well as the presence of the valves.When the wear indicators no longer appear set back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is less than 1.6 mm; it is imperative to replace the tyres.Using different size wheels and tyres from those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer reading and have an adverse effect on road holding.Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles can cause the ESC to mistime.
AdBlue® (Diesel engines)
To respect the environment and ensure
compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without adversely affecting the performance or fuel consumption of its Diesel engines, TOYOTA has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with a system that associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR System SCR
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and 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.

► With an AdBlue® pump: introduce the nozzle and fill the tank until the automatic cut-off of the nozzle.
WARNI NG
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:– Add between 10 and 13 litres using AdBlue® containers.– Stop after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-
out, if you are refilling at a service station.
WARNI NG
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty – which is confirmed by the “Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible” message – it is essential to add at least 5 litres.
After refilling
► Refit the blue cap to the tank filler and turn it clockwise, as far as it will go.► Close the fuel filler flap.
Do not dispose of AdBlue® bottles or containers in the household waste.Place them in a container reserved for this
purpose or take them back to where you purchased them.

Advice on care and
maintenance
General recommendations
Observe the following recommendations to avoid damaging your vehicle.
Exterior
WARNI NG
Never use a high-pressure jet wash in the engine compartment, due to the risk of damaging electrical components.Do not wash the vehicle in strong sunshine or extremely cold conditions.
NOTIC E
When washing the vehicle at an automatic roller-brush car wash, be sure to lock the doors and, depending on version, remove the electronic key.When using a pressure washer, hold the lance at least 30 cm (0 ft 11") from the vehicle (particularly when cleaning areas containing chipped paint, sensors or seals).Promptly clean up any stains containing
chemicals liable to damage the vehicle's paint (including tree resin, bird droppings, insect secretions, pollen and tar).
If justified by the environment, clean the vehicle more frequently to remove salty deposits (in coastal areas), soot (in industrial estates) and mud (in wet or cold areas). These substances can be highly corrosive.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop if you require advice on removing stubborn stains requiring special products (such as tar or insect removers).Preferably, have paint touch-ups performed by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Interior
WARNI NG
When washing the vehicle, never use a water hose or high-pressure washer to clean the interior.Liquids carried in cups or other open containers can spill, presenting a risk of damage if they come into contact with the controls in the dashboard and centre console. Take care!
