Snow chains
In wintry conditions, snow chains improve traction as well as the behaviour of the vehicle when braking.
The snow chains must be fitted only to the front wheels.
Take account of the legislation in force in your country on the use of snow chains and the maximum running speed authorised.
Avoid driving with snow chains on roads that have been cleared of snow, to avoid damaging your vehicle's tyres and the road sur face. If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, check that no part of the chain or its fixings is in contact with the wheel rim.
Use only the chains designed to be fitted to the type of wheel fitted to your vehicle:
You can also use snow socks.For more information, contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Advice on installation
F If you have to fit the chains during a journey, stop the vehicle on a flat sur face on the side of the road.F Apply the parking brake and position any wheel chocks to prevent movement of your vehicle.F Fit the chains following the instructions provided by the manufacturer.F Move off gently and drive for a few
moments, without exceeding 30 mph (50 km/h).F Stop your vehicle and check that the snow chains are correctly tightened.

215/60 R17KONIG K-SUMMIT VA N K8 42 2 5 / 5 5 R17
It is strongly recommended that before
you leave, you practise fitting the snow chains on a level and dry sur face.

Oil grade
Before topping-up the oil or changing the oil, check that the oil is the correct grade for your engine and conforms to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Topping-up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.F Unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler aperture.F Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components (risk of fire).F Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.F Add more oil if necessary.F After checking the level, carefully refit the oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping-up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30 minutes after topping-up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the inter val for this operation.In order to maintain the reliability of the engine and emission control system, never use additives in the engine oil.
The brake fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad wear.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X" mark but should never exceed it.
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 any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
The cooling fan may star t after switching off the engine: take care with ar ticles and clothing that might be caught by the fan blades.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
Check the coolant level regularly, according to the use made of your vehicle (every 3 000 miles or 5 000 kms / 3 months); if necessary, top-up using coolant recommended by the manufacturer.Topping-up the coolant between ser vices is normal.
Power steering
fluid level
The power steering fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. With the engine cold, unscrew the cap to check the level.

Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for the checking inter val for this component.
Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in the case of vehicles used in town, over short distances. It may be necessary to
Brake pads
For information on checking brake disc wear, contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Brake disc wear
Only use products recommended by Toyota or products of equivalent quality and specification.In order to optimise the operation of units as important as those in the braking system, Toyota selects and offers very specific products.After washing the vehicle, dampness, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the brake discs and pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. Make light brake applications to dry and defrost the brakes.
Parking brake
If excessive travel or a loss of effectiveness of this system is noticed, the parking brake must be checked, even between two services.
Checking this system must be done by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
have the condition of the brakes checked, even between vehicle services.Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.
Automatic
gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for the checking inter val for this component.
Electronic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for the checking inter val for this component.

F If your vehicle has steel wheels, remove the wheel trim using tool 3.F If your vehicle has alloy wheels, remove the cap from each wheel bolt using tool 3.F If your vehicle has security wheel bolts, fit the security bolt socket 4 to the wheelbrace 1 to slacken the security bolt.F Slacken (without removing) the other wheel bolts using just the wheelbrace 1.
F Position the foot of the jack on the ground, ensuring that it is directly below the vehicle's jacking point A or B, the one closest to the wheel to be changed.
Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does not block traffic: the ground must be level, stable and not slippery.
Do not use:- the jack for any other purpose than lifting the vehicle,
- a jack other than the one supplied by the manufacturer.
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, engage first gear then switch off the ignition to block the wheels.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, place the gear selector at position P then switch off the ignition to block the wheels.
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox, place the gear selector at position A then switch off the ignition to block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake and check that
the warning lamp is on in the instrument panel.The occupants must get out of the vehicle and wait where they are safe.Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a jack; use an axle stand.
