Sound generated during operation
Operation sounds may be heard when the power supply switch is p ressed to
turn the wireless charger on, when the engine switch is pressed to change to
ACCESSORY mode or IGNITION ON m ode while the wireless charger is on,
or when a portable device is being detected. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
■ Situations in which the wireless charger may not operate correctly
In the following situations, the wireless charger may not opera te correctly:
● When a portable device is fully charged
● When a portable device is being charged by a wired connection.

● When the temperature of a portable device becomes high while ch arging
● When the temperature near the charging tray is 95°F (35°C) or m ore due to
being in direct sunlight, etc.
● When a portable device is placed with its charging surface faci ng up
● When a portable device is not centered on the charging area
● When a portable device is larger than the charging tray

station, large display, airport, or other facility that generat es strong radio
waves or electrical noise
● When the any of the following objects, with a thickness of 0.08 in. (2 mm) or
more, are between the charging surface of a portable device and the
charging area:
• Thick cases or covers
• Thick decorations
• Accessories, such as finger rings, straps, etc.
● When the portable device is in contact with, or is covered by a ny of the fol-
lowing metallic objects:
• Cards covered with metal, such as aluminum foil

4566-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
CAMRY_U
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 r ags, in the
engine compartment.
● Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or t he bat-
tery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
● Be extremely cautious when working on the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulfuric acid.
■ When working near the electric cooling fan or radiator grille
Vehicles without a smart key system:
Be sure the engine switch is off. With the engine switch in the “ON” position,
the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning
is on and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P. 467)
Vehicles with a smart key system:
Be sure the engine switch is off. With the engine switch in IGNITION ON
mode, the electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air condi-
tioning is on and/or the coolant temperature is high. ( P. 467)
■ 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 filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear
due to dirt in the air.

With the engine at operating temperature and turned off, check the oil
level on the dipstick.
■Checking the engine oil
Park the vehicle on level ground. After warming up the engine
and turning it off, wait more than 5 minutes for the oil to dra in
back into the bottom of the engine.
Holding a rag under the end, pull the dipstick out.
Wipe the dipstick clean.
Reinsert the dipstick fully.

If a warning light turns on or a war ning
buzzer sounds
Calmly perform the following actions if any of the warning ligh ts

goes off, this does not necessarily indicate a malfunction in the
system. However, if this continues to occur, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer.

Engine oil selection
2.5 L 4-cylinder (A25A-FKS) engine
“Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” is used in your Toyota vehicle. Use
Toyota approved “Toyota Genuine Motor Oil” or equivalent to sat -
isfy the following grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: ILSAC GF-6B multigrade engine oil
Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-16
SAE 0W-16 is the best choice for
good fuel economy and good start-
ing in cold weather.
If SAE 0W-16 is not available, SAE
0W-20 oil may be used. However,
it must be replaced with SAE 0W-
16 at the next oil change.
Oil viscosity (0W-16 is explained here as an example):
• The 0W in 0W-16 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold
startability. Oils with a lower value before the W allow for ea sier starting of
the engine in cold weather.
• The 16 in 0W-16 indicates the viscosity characteristic of the oil when the
oil is at high temperature. An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher
value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or
under extreme load conditions.

Recommended viscosity: SAE 0W-20
SAE 0W-20 is the best choice for

If SAE 0W-20 is not available, SAE
5W-20 oil may be used. However,
it must be replaced with SAE 0W-
20 at the next oil change.

• The 0W in 0W-20 indicates the characteristic of the oil which allows cold
