WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that
may move suddenly, become hot, or become electrically energized. To avoid death or serious injury, observe
the following precautions.
■When working on the engine
compartment
●Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan and
engine drive belt.
●Be careful not to touch the engine,
radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. right after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the engine compartment.

1Pull the hood lock release lever.
The hood will pop up slightly.
2Push the auxiliary catch lever to
the left and lift the hood.
WARNING
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or the
battery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when work-ing on the battery. It contains poi-sonous and corrosive sulfuric acid.
●Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and dam-
age painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush the affected area with clean water
immediately. If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor.
■When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Be sure the engine switch is OFF. With the engine switch in ON, the electric cooling fan may automatically
start to run if the air conditioning is on and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P.272)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying
or falling material, fluid spray, etc. from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner fil-ter
Driving with the air cleaner filter
removed may cause excessive engine wear due to dirt in the air.
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.If the reservoir needs frequent refill-
ing, it may indicate a serious problem.

■Checking the engine oil
1 Park the vehicle on level
ground. After warming up the
engine and turning it off, wait
more than 8 minutes for the oil
to drain back into the bottom of
the engine.
2 Holding a rag under the end,
pull the dipstick out.
3 Wipe the dipstick clean.
4 Reinsert the dipstick fully.
5 Holding a rag under the end,
pull the dipstick out and check
the oil level.

The shape of the dipstick may differ
depending on the type of vehicle or
engine.
6 Wipe the dipstick and reinsert it
fully.
■Checking the oil type and pre-
paring the item needed
Make sure to check the oil type and
prepare the items needed before
adding oil.

Maintenance and care
■Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of engine oil will be
consumed while driving. In the following situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be
refilled in between oil maintenance inter- vals.
●When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or after replacing the engine
●If low quality oil or oil of an inappropri-ate viscosity is used
●When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing
(vehicles with towing packages), or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently
●When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently
through heavy trafficThe coolant level is satisfactory if it
is between the “MAX” and “MIN”
lines on the reservoir when the
engine is cold.
Reservoir cap
“MAX” line
“MIN” line
If the level is on or below the “MIN” line,
add coolant up to the “MAX” line.
( P.344)
■Coolant selection
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life Cool-
WARNING
■Used engine oil
●Used engine oil contains poten- tially harmful contaminants which may cause skin disorders such as
inflammation and skin cancer, so care should be taken to avoid pro-longed and repeated contact. To
remove used engine oil from your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water.
●Dispose of used oil and filters only in a safe and acceptable manner.
Do not dispose of used oil and fil- ters in household trash, in sewers or onto the ground.
Call any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer, service station
or auto parts store for information concerning recycling or disposal.
●Do not leave used engine oil within the reach of children.
NOTICE
■To prevent serious engine dam-age
Check the oil level on a regular basis.
■When replacing the engine oil
●Be careful not to spill engine oil on the vehicle components.
●Avoid overfilling, or the engine could be damaged.
●Check the oil level on the dipstick every time you refill the vehicle.
●Be sure the engine oil filler cap is properly tightened.

ant” or a similar high quality ethylene
glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology.
“Toyota Super Long Life Coolant” is a mixture of 50% coolant and 50% deion-ized water. (Minimum temperature: -
35°C [-31°F])
For more details about coolant, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■If the coolant level drops within a short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiator, hoses, engine coolant reservoir caps, drain cock and water pump.
If you cannot find a leak, have any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer, test the cap and check for leaks in the cooling system.
Check the radiator, condenser and
intercooler clear away any foreign
objects. If either of the above parts
is extremely dirty or you are not
sure of their condition, have your
vehicle inspected by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
If the washer fluid level is at “1/2”,
add washer fluid.
WARNING
■When the engine is hot
Do not remove the engine coolant reservoir cap.
The cooling system may be under
pressure and may spray hot coolant if the cap is removed, causing serious injuries, such as burns.
NOTICE
■When adding coolant
Coolant is neither plain water nor straight antifreeze. The correct mix-ture of water and antifreeze must be
used to provide proper lubrication, corrosion protection and cooling. Be sure to read the antifreeze or coolant
label.
■If you spill coolant
Be sure to wash it off with water to prevent it from damaging parts or paint.
Checking the radiator, con-
denser and intercooler
WARNING
■When the engine is hot
Do not touch the radiator, condenser
or intercooler as they may be hot and cause serious injuries, such as burns.
Adding the washer fluid
WARNING
■When adding washer fluid
Do not add washer fluid when the engine is hot or running as washer fluid contains alcohol and may catch
fire if spilled on the engine, etc.

Maintenance and care
The battery is located in the center
of luggage compartment.
■Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the fol- lowing precautions before recharging:
●If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect the ground cable.
●Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and
disconnecting the charger cables to the battery.
■After recharging/reconnecting the battery
●Unlocking the doors using the smart entry & start system may not be possi-
ble immediately after reconnecting the battery. If this happens, use the wire-less remote control or the mechanical
key to lock/unlock the doors.
●Start the engine with the engine switch in ACCESSORY mode. The engine may not start with the engine
switch turned off. However, the engine will operate normally from the second attempt.
●The engine switch mode is recorded by the vehicle. If the battery is recon-
nected, the vehicle will return the
NOTICE
■Do not use any fluid other than washer fluid
Do not use soapy water or engine antifreeze instead of washer fluid.Doing so may cause streaking on the
vehicle’s painted surfaces, as well as damaging the pump leading to prob-lems of the washer fluid not spraying.
■Diluting washer fluid
Dilute washer fluid with water as nec-
essary. Refer to the freezing temperatures listed on the label of the washer fluid
bottle.

the battery. Take extra care when con- necting the battery if the engine switch mode prior to the battery being dis-
connected is unknown.
If the system will not start even after multiple attempts at all the methods
above, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNING
■Chemicals in the battery
The battery contains poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid and may pro-
duce hydrogen gas which is flamma- ble and explosive. To reduce the risk of death or serious injury, take the fol-
lowing precautions while working on or near the battery:
