RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
⚫When the outside temperature is low, the engine oil may become white and
creamy, and it may get to the back of the oil filler cap or oil filling port.This
phenomenon takes place when water vapor in the engine is cooled, forming
water drops, which in turn are mixed wi th the engine oil. This, however, will
disappear when the water evaporates as the outside temperature gets high
or the engine warms up.The engine oil does not deteriorate due to this phe-
nomenon and there will be no problem if the engine oil is continued to be
used.
WARNING
⬛Used engine oil
⚫Used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause
skin disorders such as inflammation and skin cancer, so care should be
taken to avoid prolonged 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 filters in hous ehold trash, in sewers or onto the
ground.
Call your Toyota dealer, service stat ion or auto parts store for information
concerning recycling or disposal.
⚫Do not leave used engine oil within the reach of children.
⬛If engine oil is spilled
If oil is spilled on the alternator, wipe off the oil immediately. Oil spilled on the
alternator will cause a fire.
NOTICE
⬛To prevent serious engine damage
Observe the following precautions.
⚫Check the oil level on a regular basis.
⚫Do not use any engine oil additive.
⬛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.

Engine coolant
The coolant level is satisfactory if it is between the “FULL” and “LOW” lines
on the reservoir when the engine is cold.
a Reservoir cap
b “FULL” line
c “LOW” line
If the level is on or below the “LOW”
line, add coolant up to the “FULL” line.
(➞ P. 412)
⬛Coolant selection
Only use “Toyota Super Long Life Coolan t” or a similar high quality ethylene
glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, and non-borate coolant with
long-life hybrid org anic 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 engine coolant, contact your Toyota Genuine dealer.
⬛If the coolant level drops within a short time of replenishing
Visually check the radiator, hoses, engine coolant reservoir cap, drain cock and
water pump.
If you cannot find a leak, have your Toyo ta dealer test the cap and check for
leaks in the cooling system.
WARNING
⬛When the engine is hot
Do not remove the radiator cap.
The cooling system may be under pressure and may spray hot coolant if the
cap is removed, causing seri ous injuries, such as burns.
⬛When replacing the coolant
To avoid coolant spilling on the altern ator, do not remove the upper radiator
hose from engine side (remove from the radiator side). Coolant spilled on the
alternator will cause corrosion of the coil and a fire.

NOTICE
⬛When adding coolant
Coolant is neither plain water nor straight antifreeze. The correct mixture 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 pr event it from damaging parts or paint.
Radiator and condenser
Check the radiator and condenser and clear away any foreign objects. If
either of the above parts is extremel y dirty or you are not sure of their
condition, have your vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
WARNING
⬛When the engine is hot
Do not touch the radiator or condenser as they may be hot and cause serious
injuries, such as burns.
Brake fluid
⬛Checking fluid level
The brake fluid level should be
between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines
on the tank.
⬛Adding fluid
Make sure to check the fluid type and prepare the necessary item.

WARNING
⬛When adding washer fluid
Do not add washer fluid when the engine is hot or running as washer fluid con-
tains alcohol and may catch fire if spilled on the engine, etc.
NOTICE
⬛Do not use any fluid other than washer fluid
Do not use soapy water or engine an tifreeze instead of washer fluid.
Doing so may cause streaking on the vehicle’s painted surfaces, as well as
damaging the pump leading to proble ms of the washer fluid not spraying.
⬛Diluting washer fluid
Dilute washer fluid with water as necessary.
Refer to the freezing temperatures list ed on the label of the washer fluid bot-
tle.
Air cleaner filter
Check the air cleaner filter as follows:
a Release the clips.

RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E ✽
: If equipped
*1Low brake fluid level warning buzzer:
The warning buzzer sounds when the vehicle has reached a speed of 5 km/h
(3 mph) or more while the warning light is on. If the buzzer sounds, the brake
fluid may be low.
*2Electric power steering system warning light (yellow):
If it does not turn off, or if it turns on repeatedly, have it inspected at your Toy-
ota dealer.
*3Open door warning light:
The open doors and/or hood are displa yed to the multi-information display
✽.
*4Open door warning buzzer:
The buzzer sounds when at least one of the doors or the hood of the vehicle is
not completely closed and the vehicle’s speed exceeds 5 km/h (3.1 mph).
Tire pressure warning light✽
When the light comes on:
Low tire inflation pressure such as
⦁Natural causes (➞P. 384)
⦁Flat tire ( ➞P. 396)
➞ Adjust the tire inflation pressure (including the spare tire) to
the specified level.
➞ The light will turn off after a few minutes. In case the light
does not turn off even if th e tire inflation pressure is
adjusted, have the system checked by your Toyota dealer.
When the light comes on af ter blinking for 1 minute:
Malfunction in the tire pressure warning system
➞ Have the system checked by your Toyota dealer.
(Flashing)
Engine oil deterioration warning light✽
The engine oil replacement is due soon

3847-2. Steps to take in an emergency
RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E ✽
: If equipped
⬛If the open door warning light✽ comes on
To avoid battery discharge, the warning light will automatically turn OFF after
about 10 minutes with the engine switch in “ACC” or “OFF”, and the door left
open.
⬛When the tire pressure warning light comes on (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning system)
Inspect the appearance of the tire to check that the tire is not punctured.
If the tire is punctured: ➞P. 3 9 6
If the tire is not punctured:
Carry out the following procedure after the tire temperature has lowered suffi-
ciently.
⚫Check the tire inflation pressure and adjust to the appropriate level.
⚫If the warning light does not go out even after several minutes, check that
the tire inflation pressure is at the sp ecified level and carry out initialization.
The warning light may come on again if the above operations are conducted
without first allowing the tire temperature to lower sufficiently.
⬛The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes
(vehicles with a tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as
natural air leaks and tire inflation pressure changes caused by temperature.
In this case, adjusting the tire inflatio n pressure will turn off the warning light
(after a few minutes).
⬛When a tire is replaced with a spare tire (vehicles with a tire pressure
warning system)
The spare tire is also equipped with a tire pressure warning valve and transmit-
ter. The tire pressure warning light will tu rn on if the tire inflation pressure of
the spare tire is low. If a tire goes flat, the tire pressure warning light will not
turn off even though the flat tire has been replaced with the spare tire. Replace
the spare tire with the repaired tire an d adjust the tire inflation pressure. The
tire pressure warning light will go off after a few minutes.
⬛If the tire pressure warning system is not functioning✽
The tire pressure warning system will be disabled in the following conditions:
(When the condition becomes normal, the system will work properly.)
⚫If tires not equipped with tire pressure warning valves and transmitters are
used
⚫If the ID code on the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters is not reg-
istered in the tire pressure warning computer
⚫If the tire inflation pressure is higher than the specified tire air pressure.
