WARNING
Improperly executed work in the
engine compartment can damage
vehicle components and impair
vehicle functions. There is a risk
of an accident and damage to
property. Have work in the engine
compartment performed by your
Toyota dealer.
WARNING
The engine compartment accom-
modates moving components.
Certain components in the engine
compartment can also move with
the vehicle switched off, for
instance the radiator fan. There is
a risk of injury. Do not reach into
the area of moving parts. Keep
articles of clothing and hair away
from moving parts.

3Be careful of protruding parts
on the hood.
Energetically close the hood
from approx. 20 in/50 cm.
The hood must engage on both
sides.
WARNING
There are protruding parts, for
instance locking hook, on the
inside of the hood. There is a risk
of injury. If the hood is open, pay
attention to protruding parts and
keep clear of these areas.
WARNING
An incorrectly locked hood can
open while driving and restrict vis-
ibility. There is a risk of an acci-
dent. Stop immediately and
correctly close the hood.
WARNING
Body parts can be jammed when
opening and closing the hood.
There is a risk of injury. Make sure
that the area of movement of the
hood is clear during opening and
closing.
NOTICE
Folded-away wipers can be
jammed when the hood is
opened. There is a risk of damage

Depending on the region, many
gas stations sell fuel that has
been customized to winter or
summer conditions. Fuel that is
available in winter,for instance
helps make a cold start easier.
For the best fuel consumption,
the gasoline should be sul-
fur-free or very low in sulfur con-
tent.
Fuels that are marked on the gas pump as containing metal
must not be used.
Fuels with a maximum ethanol
content of 25 %, i. e. E10 or
E25, may be used for refueling.
To achieve nominal values for
mileage and consumption, fol-
low the specified fuel quality in
the sales literature.
Ethanol should meet the follow-
ing quality standards:
US: ASTM 4806–xx
CAN: CGSB-3.511–xx
xx: comply with the current valid
standard in each case.
The use of fuels of minimum
quality has no influence on the
service life of the engine.

Refuel with this gasoline to
achieve the rated performance
and consumption values.
The minimum grade is AKI 87.
If you use gasoline with this min-

may produce knocking sounds
when starting at high external

on the engine life.

WARNING
If drivability prob lems are encoun-
tered, we recommend switching
to a high quality gasoline brand
and a higher octane grade - AKI
number - for a few tank fills. To
avoid harmful engine deposits, it
is highly recommended to pur-
chase gasoline from Top Tier
retailers.
Failure to comply with these rec-
ommendations may result in the
need for unscheduled mainte-
nance.
NOTICE
Even small quantities of the
wrong fuel or wrong fuel additives
can damage the fuel system and
engine. Furthermore, the catalytic
converter is permanently dam-
aged. There is a risk of damage to
property. Do not refuel or add the

The engine oil consumption is
dependent on your driving style
and driving conditions.
Therefore, regularly check the
engine oil level after refueling by
taking a detailed measurement.
The engine oil consumption can
increase in the following situa-
tions, for example:
• Sporty driving style.
• Break-in of the engine.
• Idling of the engine.
• With use of engine oil types that are classified as not suit-
able.
Different vehicle messages
appear on the Control Display
depending on the engine oil
level. The electronic oil measurement
has two measuring principles:
• Monitoring.
• Detailed measurement.
When making frequent
short-distance trips or using a
sporty driving style, for instance
when taking curves aggres-
sively, regularly perform a
detailed measurement.
■Concept
The engine oil level is monitored
electronically while driving and
can be shown on the Control
Display.
If the engine oil level is outside
its permissible operating range,
a vehicle message is displayed.
■Functional requirements
A current measured value is
available after approx. 30 min-
utes of normal driving.

NOTICE
An engine oil level
that is too low

Immediately add engine oil.
NOTICE
Too much engine oil can damage
the engine or the catalytic con-

to property. Do not add too much
engine oil. When too much engine
oil is added, have the engine oil
level corrected by your Toyota
dealer.

■System limits
When making frequent
short-distance trips or using a
sporty driving style, it may not
be possible to calculate a mea-
sured value. In this case, the
measured value for the last, suf-
ficiently long trip is displayed.
■Concept
The engine oil level is checked
when the vehicle is stationary
and displayed via a scale.
If the engine oil level is outside
its permissible operating range,
a vehicle message is displayed.
■General information
During the measurement, the
idle speed is increased some-
what.
■Functional requirements
• Vehicle is parked in a horizon- tal position.
• Manual transmission: gear- shift lever in idle position,
clutch and accelerator pedals
not depressed.
• Automatic transmission: selector lever in selector lever
position N or P and accelera-
tor pedal not depressed.
• Engine is running and is at operating temperature.
