Eco-driving
Eco-driving
Eco-driving refers to a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
Optimise your use of the gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently and change up promptly. While accelerating, change up early.With an automatic gearbox, favour automatic mode and avoid pressing the accelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.The gear efficiency indicator prompts you to engage the most suitable gear: whenever this indication is displayed on the instrument panel, follow it straight away.With an automatic gearbox, this indicator appears only in manual mode.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal and press the accelerator gradually. These attitudes
help to save fuel, reduce CO2 emissions and decrease general traffic noise.If the vehicle has the steering-mounted "CRUISE" control, use cruise control at speeds above 40 km/h (25 mph) when the traffic is flowing well.
Use electrical equipment wisely
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it by opening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.At speeds above 50 km/h (31 mph), close the windows and leave the air vents open.Consider using equipment that can help keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (sunroof blind and window blinds, etc.).Unless automatically regulated, switch off the air conditioning as soon as the desired temperature has been reached.Switch off the demisting and defrosting functions, if they are not managed automatically.Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.Switch off the headlamps and foglamps when the visibility conditions do not require their use.Avoid running the engine before moving off, particularly in winter; your vehicle will warm up much faster while driving.As a passenger, avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, video game, etc.) to help reduce consumption of electrical
energy, and hence fuel.Disconnect all portable devices before leaving the vehicle.
Limit the causes of excess consumption
Spread loads throughout the vehicle; place the heaviest items in the boot, as close as possible to the rear seats.Limit the loads carried in the vehicle and minimise wind resistance (roof bars, roof rack,
bicycle carrier, trailer, etc.). Preferably, use a roof box.Remove roof bars and roof racks after use.At the end of winter, remove snow tyres and refit summer tyres.
Comply with servicing instructions
Check tyre pressures regularly, with the tyres cold, referring to the label in the door aperture on the driver's side.Carry out this check in particular:– before a long journey.– at each change of season.– after a long period out of use.Do not overlook the spare wheel and, where applicable, the tyres on your trailer or caravan.Have your vehicle serviced regularly (engine oil, oil filter, air filter, passenger compartment filter, etc.) and observe the schedule of operations in the manufacturer's service schedule.With a Diesel engine, if the SCR system is faulty, your vehicle will emit pollution. Visit a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop as soon as
possible to restore your vehicle’s nitrogen oxide emissions to regulatory compliance.When filling the fuel tank, do not continue after the third nozzle cut-out, to avoid overflow.You will only see the fuel consumption of your new vehicle settle down to a consistent average after the first 3,000 kilometres (1,900 miles).

► With the ignition on, press the button until zeros appear.
Engine coolant temperature

With the engine running, when the needle or bar graph (depending on version) is:– in zone A, the engine coolant temperature is correct,
– in zone B, the engine coolant temperature is too high; the maximum temperature and central STOP warning lamps come on, accompanied by an audible signal and a warning message.You MUST stop as soon as it is safe to do so.Wait a few minutes before switching off the engine.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checking
After driving for a few minutes, the temperature and pressure in the cooling system increase.To top up the level:► wait at least one hour for the engine to cool,► unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop,► when the pressure has dropped, remove the cap,► top up the level to the "MAX" mark.For more information on Checking levels, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
Be aware of the risk of scalding when topping up the coolant. Do not fill above the maximum level (indicated on the reservoir).
Engine oil level indicator
On versions fitted with an electric oil gauge, the state of the engine oil level is displayed on the
instrument panel for a few seconds when the ignition is switched on, at the same time as the servicing information.
NOTIC E
The level read will only be correct if the vehicle is on level ground and the engine has been off for more than 30 minutes.
Oil level correct


This is indicated by a message on the instrument panel.
Low oil level


This is indicated by a message on the instrument panel.If the low oil level is confirmed by a check using the dipstick, the level must be topped up to avoid
damaging the engine.

WARNI NG
When braking in an emergency, press very firmly and maintain this pressure.
WARNI NG
When changing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that these are approved for your
vehicle.
WARNI NG
After an impact, have these systems checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance.It is triggered in relation to the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
/ Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation optimises traction using engine braking and by applying the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid wheel spinning. It also enhances the vehicle's directional stability while accelerating.If there is a difference between the vehicle’s trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the dynamic stability control system automatically uses engine braking and the brakes on one or more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired path, within the limits of the laws of physics.These systems are activated automatically every time the vehicle is started.They come into operation in the event of a grip or trajectory problem.This warning lamp on the instrument panel flashes to indicate that they are operating.
Deactivation / Reactivation

In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose
soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.However, it is recommended that the system be reactivated as soon as possible.These systems are reactivated automatically every time the ignition is switched off, or from 50 km/h (31 mph).At speeds below 50 km/h (31 mph), the systems can be reactivated manually.Press this button or turn the thumbwheel to this position.The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel comes on: the DSC/ASR systems no longer have an effect on engine operation.To reactivate the system:Press this button.
OrTurn the thumbwheel to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel goes off.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an onscreen message and audible signal.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop to have the systems checked.

WARNI NG
The Diesel fuel system operates under very high pressure.All work on this circuit must be carried out only by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Checking levels
Check all of the following levels regularly in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule. Top them up if required, unless otherwise indicated.If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
The fluids must comply with the manufacturer's requirements and with the vehicle's engine.
WARNI NG
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at any time (even with the ignition off).
Used products
WARNI NG
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.Most of these fluids are harmful to health and very corrosive.
ECO
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.Empty used oil into the containers reserved for this purpose at a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Engine oil
The level is checked, with the engine having been switched off for at least 30
minutes and on level ground, either using the oil level indicator in the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on (for vehicles equipped with an electric gauge), or using the dipstick.
It is normal to top up the oil level between two services (or oil changes). It is recommended that you check the level, and top up if necessary, every 5,000 km (3,000 miles).
WARNI NG
In order to maintain the reliability of the engine and emissions control system, never use additives in the engine oil.
Checking using the dipstick
For the location of the dipstick, please refer to the illustration of the corresponding engine compartment.► Grasp the dipstick by its coloured grip and pull it out completely.► Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean, lint-free cloth.

► Reinsert the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to visually check the oil level: the correct level is between marks A (max) and B (min).Do not start the engine if the level is:– above mark A: contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.

– below mark B: top up the engine oil immediately.
WARNI NG
Oil gradeBefore topping up or changing the engine oil, check that the oil is suitable for the engine and complies with the recommendations in the service schedule supplied with the vehicle
(or available from your TOYOTA dealer and qualified workshops).Use of non-recommended oil may invalidate the contractual warranty in the event of engine failure.
Topping up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the corresponding underbonnet layout view.► Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components (risk of fire).► Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.► Add more oil if necessary.► After checking the level, carefully refit the oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
NOTIC E
During the 30 minutes after topping up the oil, the check performed with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel when the ignition is switched on is not valid.
Brake fluid
The level of this fluid should be close to the "MAX" mark. If not, check the brake pad wear.To know how often the brake fluid should be replaced, refer to the manufacturer's servicing schedule.
WARNI NG
If topping up, clean the cap before replacing it. Use only DOT4 brake fluid from a sealed canister.
Engine coolant
Check the engine coolant level regularly.It is normal to top up this fluid between two services.The check and top-up must only be done with the engine cold.A low level presents a risk of serious damage to the engine.The level of this fluid should be close to the "MAX" mark but should never exceed it.If the level is close to or below the "MIN” mark, it is essential to top up.When the engine is hot, the temperature of this fluid is regulated by the fan.In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out any work.
To avoid the risk of scalding if you need to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up to the required level.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.Capacity of the tank:– 5.3 litres for "very cold climate" versions.– 2.2 litres for other versions.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a ready-to-use mixture.In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid containing an agent to prevent freezing must be used which is appropriate for the prevailing conditions, in order to protect the elements of the system (pump, tank, ducts, jets, etc.).
WARNI NG
Filling with pure water is prohibited under all circumstances (risk of freezing, limestone deposits, etc.).
