Driving
NOTICE
■If you get a flat tire while driving
A flat or damaged tire may cause the
following situations. Hold the steering wheel firmly and gradually depress
the brake pedal to slow down the
vehicle.
●It may be difficult to control your
vehicle.
●The vehicle will make abnormal
sounds or vibrations.
●The vehicle will lean abnormally.
Information on what to do in case of a flat tire (P.345)
■When encountering flooded roads
Do not drive on a road that has
flooded after heavy rain etc. Doing so may cause the following serious dam-
age to the vehicle:
●Engine stalling
●Short in electrical components
●Engine damage caused by water
immersion
In the event that you drive on a
flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, be sure to have any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota author-
ized repairer, or any reliable repairer check the following:
●Brake function
●Changes in quantity and quality of
oil and fluid used for the engine, transmission, differential, etc.
●Lubricant condition for the propel-ler shaft, bearings and suspension
joints (where possible), and the
function of all joints, bearings, etc.
Cargo and luggage
Take notice of the following
information about storage pre-
cautions, cargo capacity and
load:
WA R N I N G
■Things that must not be carried
in the trunk
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk:
●Receptacles containing gasoline
●Aerosol cans
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the trunk whenever possible.
●To prevent cargo and luggage from sliding forward during braking, do
not stack anything in the enlarged
trunk. Keep cargo and luggage low, as close to the floor as possible.
●When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be placed
directly behind the front seats.
●Never allow anyone to ride in the
enlarged trunk. It is not designed for
passengers. They should ride in their seats with their seat belts
properly fastened. Otherwise, they
are much more likely to suffer death or serious bodily injury, in the event
of sudden braking, sudden swerv-
ing or an accident.

■Checking the engine oil
1 Park the vehicle on level
ground. After warming up the
engine and turning it off, wait
more than 5 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.
When checking the oil, look at both
sides of the dipstick and use the lower measurement to determine the level of
oil.
6 Wipe the dipstick and reinsert it
fully.

■Adding engine oil
If the oil level is below or near the
low level mark, add engine oil of the
same type as that already in the
engine.
1 Remove the oil filler cap by turn-
ing it counterclockwise.
2 Add engine oil slowly, checking
the dipstick.
3 Install the oil filler cap by turning
it clockwise.

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, or when driving
while accelerating or decelerating fre-
quently
●When leaving the engine idling for a
long time, or when driving frequently through heavy traffic
The coolant level is satisfactory if it
is between the “FULL” and “LOW”
lines on the reservoir when the
engine is cold.
■Engine coolant reservoir
Reservoir cap
“FULL” line
“LOW” line
If the level is on or below the “LOW”
line, add coolant up to the “FULL” line.
( P.362)
■Coolant selection
Only use “TOYOTA Genuine 50/50
Pre-mixed Super Long Life Coolant BLUE” 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.

■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 thoro ughly 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 author-
ized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional, service station or auto
parts store for information concern-
ing 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.

■Replacing light bulbs
●Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to
replace the bulb immediately after
turning off the lights. The bulbs become very hot and may cause
burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of
the light bulb with bare hands.
When it is unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a
clean dry cloth to avoid getting
moisture and oils on the bulb. Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped,
it may blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any
parts used to secure them. Failure
to do so may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the light unit.
This may damage the lights or
cause condensation to build up on the lens.
■When changing the rear fog light or back-up lights
●Stop the engine and wait until the
exhaust pipes and surrounding parts have cooled down suffi-
ciently. The lights are located near
the exhaust pipe and touching a hot exhaust pipe and surrounding parts
can cause burns.
■To prevent damage or fire
●Make sure bulbs are fully seated
and locked.
●Check the wattage of the bulb
before installing to prevent heat damage.
