MAINTENANCE
You are responsible for performance of  
the required maintenance indicated in the   
Owner ’s Manual  and this booklet. Toyota   
will not deny a warranty claim solely   
because you do not have records to show   
that you maintained your vehicle. However, 
any failure or noncompliance caused  
by lack of maintenance is not covered by   
this warranty.
When maintenance and repairs are   
paid for by you, these services may be 
performed by you or by any automotive 
service provider you choose. Toyota   
will not deny a warranty claim solely 
because you used a service provider   
other than a Toyota dealership for 
maintenance and repairs.  However,  
any failure or noncompliance caused by   
improper maintenance or repairs is not 
covered by this warranty.
CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY

Covered under the Hybrid System Warranty for eight years or 100,000 miles, whichever occurs first, with the exception of 
the hybrid battery covered for ten years or 150,000 miles, whichever occurs first.

REPLACEMENT PARTS
To ensure optimum performance and   
maintain the quality built into your   
vehicle’s emission control systems,   
Toyota recommends the use of   
Toyota Genuine Parts when servicing   
or repairing the systems.
Warranty coverage is not dependent   
upon the use of any particular brand   
of replacement parts and you may elect   
to use parts that are not Toyota Genuine 
Parts for maintenance and repairs. 
However, use of replacement parts   
that are not equivalent in quality to   
Toyota Genuine Parts may impair   
the effectiveness of the emission   
control systems.
If you use replacement parts that have 
maintenance or replacement schedules 
different from those of Toyota Genuine   
Parts, you must follow the maintenance   
and replacement schedules for the parts   
you are using. In addition, you should   
ensure that such parts are warranted by   
their manufacturers to be equivalent to   
Toyota Genuine Parts.
 
IF YOUR VEHICLE FAILS   
A SMOG-CHECK TEST
If your vehicle fails a smog-check test, 
you may make a claim under the Emission 
Performance Warranty. To do so, take your 
vehicle to an authorized Toyota dealership   
and present a copy of the smog-check test 
report. Also, take your maintenance   
records in case they are needed.
If your claim qualifies for coverage, the 
dealership will repair your vehicle within   
30 days (unless a shorter period is   
required by law). If your claim is denied, 
Toyota will notify you in writing of the   
reason within the same period. If we fail   
to do so, we will repair your vehicle free   
of charge. The only exceptions allowed are 
when you request or agree to a delay, or   
when a delay is caused by factors beyond   
the control of Toyota or the dealership.

under the Emission Defect Warranty, see

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
 
GENERAL INFORMATION 
You are responsible for ensuring that   
your Toyota is operated and maintained   
according to the instructions in the   
Owner’s Manual  and this booklet.
You should keep detailed records of 
vehicle maintenance, since under some 
circumstances they may be required for 
warranty coverage. These records should 
include date of service, mileage at time   
of service and a description of service   
performed and/or parts installed. For   
your convenience, a maintenance log is   
included in this booklet. If you sell your 
vehicle, you should give your maintenance 
records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records   
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by   
lack of proper maintenance is not   
covered under warranty.
 
WHERE TO GO   
FOR MAINTENANCE
You may have maintenance performed   
on your vehicle by any qualified person   
or facility. However, Toyota recommends   
having maintenance performed by an 
authorized Toyota dealership.
Toyota dealership technicians are specially 
trained to maintain and repair Toyota   
vehicles. They stay current on the latest 
service information through Toyota   
technical bulletins, service publications   
and training courses. Many are also   
certified through the Toyota Certification 
Program, which involves a series of   
rigorous written examinations. Feel free  
to ask any Toyota dealership to show you   
their technicians’ credentials.
You can be confident you’re getting the   
best possible service for your vehicle  
when you take it to a Toyota dealership.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
 
 
REPLACEMENT PARTS 
Warranty coverage is not dependent   
upon the use of any particular brand   
of replacement parts. However, Toyota 
recommends using only Toyota Genuine   
Parts when you need to replace a part   
on your vehicle. Like all Toyota products,   
Toyota Genuine Parts are built to the   
highest standards of quality, durability   
and performance. They are also designed   
to fit your vehicle’s exact specifications.
Your Toyota dealership maintains an   
extensive inventory of Toyota Genuine   
Parts to meet your vehicle service needs.   
And because it is linked electronically to 
Toyota’s Parts Distribution Centers, the 
dealership has quick access to any parts   
it may not have in stock.
 
 
Toyota Genuine Parts are covered by their   
own warranty (see your dealer for details)   
or the remainder of any applicable New 
Vehicle Limited Warranty, whichever is   
longer.  Parts that are not Toyota Genuine 
Parts, or any damage or failures resulting 
from their use, are not covered by any   
Toyota warranty.

performance, safety and reliability   
from your Toyota. It can also increase   
your vehicle’s resale value. The following 
pages are designed to help you make sure 
your vehicle receives proper and timely

your vehicle requires ongoing general 
maintenance such as fluid checks and   
visual inspections. These procedures are 
explained in the “Maintenance and Care” 
section of the Owner’s Manual . Be sure  
to perform these procedures regularly to   
ensure the most trouble-free operation of   
your vehicle.
With proper maintenance and care, your 
vehicle will last longer and deliver more

MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE 
INFORMATION
It is especially important to both   
routinely check your vehicle’s engine   
oil level (once a month) and regularly   
replace the engine oil and oil filter   
(see the Maintenance Log section of   
this booklet to determine how often   
you should change your vehicle’s oil   
and filter). Failure to do so can cause   
oil starvation and/or oil gelling, which   
can result in severe damage to your 
vehicle and require costly repairs that   
are not covered by the New Vehicle   
Limited Warranty.
Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to   
the recommendations in this booklet is   
required to ensure that your warranty 
coverage remains intact. You should keep 
detailed records of vehicle maintenance, 
including date of service, mileage at time   
of service and a description of service   
and/or parts installation performed. The 
scheduled maintenance log in this booklet   
can help you document this information. If 
you sell your vehicle, be sure to give your 
maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records   
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by lack   
of proper maintenance is not covered   
under warranty.
 
 
Maintenance Providers 
Maintenance and repair services may be 
performed by you or by any automotive 
service provider you choose. Toyota will   
not deny a warranty claim solely because   
you used a service provider other than a 
Toyota dealership for maintenance and 
repairs. However, damage or failure   
caused by improper maintenance or   
repairs is not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended 
Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more   
frequent maintenance intervals or more 
maintenance services than those listed in   
the scheduled maintenance log. These 
additional services are not required to 
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask   
your dealer to explain any recommended 
maintenance not included in the scheduled 
maintenance log.

warranty coverages, see the Warranty

egular maintenance is essential  
to obtaining the highest level of 
performance, safety and reliability   
from your Toyota. It can also increase   
your vehicle’s resale value. This 
booklet presents Toyota’s maintenance 
recommendations in convenient checklists,   
so you can easily see what type of 
maintenance your vehicle needs and 
document that the work was performed.
To ensure that your vehicle receives   
first-quality service and parts, Toyota 
recommends having maintenance   
performed by an authorized Toyota   
dealership. Toyota dealership technicians   
are experts on Toyota vehicles, and they   
use Toyota Genuine Parts designed to   
your vehicle’s exact specifications. When 
you go to a Toyota dealership, you can be 
confident that they will use Toyota Genuine 
Parts and have Toyota-trained technicians.
Miles or Months?
Toyota recommends obtaining scheduled 
maintenance for your vehicle every   
5,000 miles or six months, whichever   
comes first.
For example:
•  
If you drive 5,000 miles in less than six 
months, you should obtain maintenance   
at  5,000 miles  — don’t wait until six months.
•  
If at six months you have driven less   
than 5,000 miles, you should obtain 
maintenance at six months  — don’t  
wait until 5,000 miles.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage 
so that you obtain maintenance when 
recommended. If you are a low-mileage   
driver, mark your calendar to remind   
yourself to obtain maintenance every   
six months.
Documenting Your Investment
To help you verify that you’ve invested in 
proper maintenance, each maintenance 
checklist includes space for your Toyota 
dealership to certify that you obtained 
Genuine Toyota Service for your vehicle. 
The dealership may mark the dealer 
service verification area with the following 
stamp (which may be customized with the 
dealership’s name):

Special Operating Conditions
In addition to standard maintenance items, 
the maintenance log indicates services that 
should be performed on vehicles that are 
driven under especially demanding   
conditions. These “special operating 
conditions” and their required maintenance 
items are clearly indicated in each chart.
NOTE:
You should perform these additional 
maintenance services only if the 
majority  of your driving is done under   
the special operating conditions 
indicated. If you only occasionally   
drive under these circumstances, it   
is not necessary to perform the   
additional services.
Engine Oil Selection
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual  for the 
specific oil viscosity rating recommended  
for your vehicle/engine type.
Additional Maintenance
In addition to scheduled maintenance,  
your Toyota requires ongoing general 
maintenance, such as fluid checks and   
visual inspections. These procedures are 
explained in the “Maintenance and Care” 
section of the Owner’ s Manual. Be sure  
to perform these procedures regularly to   
ensure the most trouble-free operation   
of your vehicle.
SuperChrome and   
Alloy Wheel Care
If you purchased Genuine Toyota Accessory 
SuperChrome or Aluminum Alloy Wheels, 
follow these cleaning guidelines to maintain 
the appearance of your wheels:
•  
If wheels are hot, wait for them to   
cool before washing.
•  
Use a soft sponge or cotton cloth to   
apply the same mild car-wash soap as   
used for the vehicle body. Quickly rinse   
off with water. Use a soft cloth to apply   
the same car wax as used for the   
vehicle body.
•  
DO NOT USE: Any kind of chemical-  
based cleaners, alcohol, solvents,   
gasoline, steam cleaners, scouring   
pads, wire brushes or coarse abrasives   
to clean your wheels.
