NOTICE
■To prevent damage to the engine and its components
● Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red  zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed.
● The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature  gauge is
in  the  red  zone  (H).  In  this  case,  immediately  stop  the  vehicle   in  a  safe
place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. ( P. 566)
■ Vo l t m e t e r
When the voltmeter indicates 19 V or higher or 9 V or lower whi le the engine
is running, there may be a battery or charging system malfunction. Have the
vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
■ Engine oil pressure gauge
When the value of the engine oil pressure gauge drops while the  engine is
running, stop the vehicle in a safe place immediately and check  the amount
of engine oil. ( P. 471) 
When  the  oil  pressure  drops  even  though  the  engine  oil  amount  h as  not
decreased,  or  if  the  oil  pressure  does  not  increase  when  engine  oil is
added, contact your Toyota dealer, as there may be a problem wi th the lubri-
cation system.

6-1. Maintenance and care
Cleaning and protecting the vehicle exterior
●Working  from  top  to  bottom,  liberally  apply  water  to  the  vehicl e
body,  wheel  wells  and  underside  of  the  vehicle  to  remove  any  di rt
and dust.
● Wash  the  vehicle  body  using  a  sponge  or  soft  cloth,  such  as  a
chamois.
● For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thoroughl y
with water.
● Wipe away any water.
● Wax the vehicle when the wate rproof coating deteriorates.
If  water  does  not  bead  on  a  clean  surface,  apply  wax  when  the  vehicle
body is cool.
■Automatic car washes
●Fold  the  mirrors  back  before  washing  the  vehicle.  Start  washing   from  the
front of the vehicle. Make sure to extend the mirrors before dr iving.
● Brushes  used  in  automatic  car  washes  may  scratch  the  vehicle  su rface,
parts (wheel, etc.) and harm your vehicle’s paint.
● Rear  spoiler  (if  equipped)  may  not  be  washable  in  some  automati c  car
washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.
■ High pressure car washes
As  water  may  enter  the  cabin,  do  not  bring  the  nozzle  tip  near  the  gaps
around the doors or perimeter of the windows, or spray these ar eas continu-
ously.
■ Wheels and wheel ornaments
●Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent.
● Wash detergent off with water immediately after use.
● To  protect  the  paint  from  damage,  make  sure  to  observe  the  following  pre-
cautions.
• Do not use acidic, alkaline or abrasive detergent
• Do not use hard brushes
• Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, such as  after driv-
ing or parking in hot weather
■ Bumpers and side moldings
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
Perform the following to protect the vehicle and maintain it in
prime condition:

Maintenance and care
NOTICE
■To  prevent  paint  deterioration  an d  corrosion  on  the  body  and  compo-
nents (aluminum wheels etc.)
● Wash the vehicle immediately in the following cases:
• After driving near the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar or tree sap is present on the paint surface
• If you see dead insects, insect droppings or bird droppings on  the paint
• After  driving  in an  area  contaminated  with  soot, oily  smoke, mine  dust, iron powder or chemical substances
• If the vehicle becomes heavily soiled in dust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gasoline are spilled on the pai nt surface
● If the paint is chipped or scratched, have it repaired immediat ely.
● To prevent the wheels from corroding, remove any dirt and store  in a place
with low humidity when storing wheels.
■ Cleaning the exterior lights
● Wash carefully. Do not use organic substances or scrub with a h ard brush. 
This may damage the surfaces of the lights.
● Do not apply wax on the surfaces of the lights.
Wax may cause damage to the lenses.
■ When  using  an  automatic  car  wash  (vehicles  with  rain-sensing  wi nd-
shield wiper)
Turn off the wiper switch.
If  the  wiper  switch  is  in  “AUTO”,  the  wipers  may  operate  and  th e  wiper
blades may be damaged.
■ When using a high pressure car wash
● Do  not  bring  the  nozzle  tip  close  to  boots  (rubber  or  resin  man ufactured
cover),  connectors  or  the  following  parts.  The  parts  may  be  dam aged  if
they come into contact with high-pressure water.
• Traction related parts
• Steering parts
• Suspension parts
• Brake parts
● Keep  the  cleaning  nozzle  at  least  11.9  in.  (30  cm)  away  from  th e  vehicle
body.  Otherwise  resin  section,  such  as  moldings  and  bumpers,  ma y  be
deformed  and  damaged. Also,  do  not  continuously  hold  the  nozzle  in the
same place.
● Do not spray the lower part of the windshield continuously. If  water enters
the air conditioning system intake located near the lower part  of the wind-
shield, the air conditioning system may not operate correctly.
● Do  not  wash  the  underside  of  the  vehicle  using  a  high  pressure  car
washer.

When trouble arises
■When the tire pressure warning light comes on
Inspect the tires to check if a tire is punctured.
If a tire is punctured: P. 544
If none of the tires are punctured:
Turn the engine switch off then turn it to IGNITION ON mode. Ch eck if the
tire pressure warning light comes on or flashes.
If the tire pressure wa rning light comes on
After  the  temperature  of  the  tires  has  lowered  sufficiently,  ch eck  the
inflation pressure of each tire and adjust them to the specifie d level.
If  the  warning  light  does  not  turn  off  even  after  several  minut es  have
elapsed, check that the inflation pressure of each tire is at t he specified
level and perform  initialization. (P.   4 8 3 )
If  the  warning  light  does  not  turn  off  even  after  several  minut es  have
elapsed, have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immed iately.
If the tire pressure warning light flashes for 1 minute then st ay on
There  may  be  a  malfunction  in  the  tire  pressure  warning  system.  Have
the vehicle inspected by you r Toyota dealer immediately.
■The tire pressure warning light may turn on due to natural caus es
The tire pressure warning light may turn on due to natural caus es such as
natural  air  leaks  or  tire  inflation  pressure  changes  caused  by  tempera-
ture. In this case, adjusting  the tire inflation pressure will  turn off the warn-
ing light (after  a few minutes).
■When a tire is replace d with a spare tire
The  spare  tire  is  also  equipped  with  the  tire  pressure  warning  valve  and
transmitter. The  tire  pressure  warning  light  will  turn  on  if  the  tire  inflation
pressure of the spare tire is low. If a tire goes flat, even th ough the flat tire
is  replaced  with  the  spare  tire,  the  tire  pressure  warning  light  does  not
turn off. Replace the spare tire with the repaired tire and adj ust the proper
tire  inflation  pressure.  The  tire  pressure  warning  light  will  t urn  off  after  a
few minutes.
■Conditions  that  the  tire  pressure  warning  system  may  not  functi on
properly
 P.   4 8 7
■Changing the engine oil
Make sure to reset oil change system.
