MAINTENANCE LOG
MAINTENANCE
1 Inspect sealed transmissions, transfer cases and differentials for signs of leakage. If any leakage from a sealed
component is suspected, it is recommended that you have the sealed component inspected by a Toyota dealer. Inspect
power steering fluid (if equipped) and brake fluid level/condition. Inspect engine and inverter (if equipped) coolant
level/condition/freezing point. Your dealer may recommend services (Dealer-Recommended Maintenance) based on
inspection results.
2 Reset the oil replacement reminder light (“MAINT REQD”) or the message “OIL MAINTENANCE REQUIRED” on the
multi-information display after maintenance at every 5,000 miles.
3 Perform these service items only if you drive primarily under the conditions indicated.4 Refer to “Engine/Inverter Coolant” in the “Explanation of Maintenance Items” section in the back of this guide for
more information.
5 Visually check the HV battery cooling intake lter for dirt or dust every 5,000 miles and clean if necessary.
Clean every 20,000 miles.
6 Not all vehicles are designed for towing. Refer to your Vehicle Owner’s Manual for details.

For further information on maintenance
items you can perform yourself, see the
“Maintenance and Care” section of the
Owner’s Manual.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Inspect or replace at specied intervals.
When performing inspections, check each
component for signs of leakage. If you
discover any leakage, have it repaired by
a qualied technician immediately.
Ball Joints and Dust Covers
Check the suspension and steering
linkage ball joints for looseness and
damage. Check all dust covers for
deterioration and damage. Replace
any deteriorated or damaged parts.
A qualied technician should perform
these operations.
Brake Lines and Hoses
Visually inspect for proper installation.
Check for chang, cracks, deterioration
and signs of leakage. Replace any
deteriorated or damaged parts. A qualied
technician should perform these operations.
Brake Linings/Drums and
Brake Pads/Discs
Check the brake linings (shoes) and
drums for scoring, burning, uid leakage,
broken parts and excessive wear. Check
the pads for excessive wear and the discs
for runout, excessive wear and uid
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts. A qualied technician
should perform these operations.
Cabin Air Filter
Replace at specied intervals. Driving in
