To avoid the risk of scalding if you need to top up in an emergency, wrap a cloth around the cap and unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop.Once the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up to the required level.
Screenwash fluid
Top up to the required level when necessary.Capacity of the tank:– 5.3 litres for "very cold climate" versions.– 2.2 litres for other versions.
Fluid specification
The fluid must be topped up with a ready-to-use mixture.In winter (temperatures below zero), a liquid containing an agent to prevent freezing must be used which is appropriate for the prevailing conditions, in order to protect the elements of the system (pump, tank, ducts, jets, etc.).
WARNI NG
Filling with pure water is prohibited under all circumstances (risk of freezing, limestone deposits, etc.).
Diesel fuel additive (Diesel
with particle filter)
or On reaching the minimum level in the particle filter additive tank, this warning lamp comes on fixed, accompanied by an audible warning and a message warning that the additive level is too low.
Topping up
This additive must be topped up without delay by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
AdBlue (Diesel engines)
An alert is triggered when the reserve level is reached.For more information on the AdBlue range indicators, refer to the corresponding section.To avoid the vehicle being immobilised in accordance with regulations, you must top up the AdBlue tank.For more information on the Supply of AdBlue, refer to the corresponding section.
Checks
Unless otherwise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.Otherwise, have them checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
Only use products recommended by TOYOTA or products of equivalent quality and specification.In order to optimise the operation of components as important as those in the braking system, TOYOTA selects and offers very specific products.
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.However, check regularly that the terminals are correctly tightened (versions without quick release terminals) and that the connections are clean.
NOTIC E
For more information on the precautions to take before any work on the 12 V battery, refer to the corresponding section.

162
WARNI NG
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of specific technology and specification.Its replacement should be carried out only by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Passenger compartment
filter
Depending on the environment and the use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere, city driving), change it twice as often, if necessary.
NOTIC E
A clogged passenger compartment filter can adversely affect air conditioning system performance and generate undesirable odours.
Air filter
Depending on the environment and the use of the vehicle (e.g. dusty atmosphere, city driving), change it twice as often, if necessary.
Oil filter
Change the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.
Manual gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Automatic gearbox
The gearbox does not require any maintenance (no oil change).
Brake pads
Brake wear depends on the style of driving, particularly in the case of vehicles used in town, over short distances. It may be necessary to have the condition of the brakes checked, even between vehicle services.Unless there is a leak in the circuit, a drop in the brake fluid level indicates that the brake pads are worn.
NOTIC E
After washing the vehicle, moisture, or in wintry conditions, ice can form on the brake
discs and pads: braking efficiency may be reduced. Gently dab the brakes to dry and defrost them.
Brake disc wear
For information on checking brake disc wear, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Manual parking brake
If you notice excessive brake lever travel or decreased effectiveness, the parking brake must be adjusted, even between two services.This system must be checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Electric parking brake
This system does not require any routine servicing. However, in the event of a problem, do not hesitate to have the system checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
NOTIC E
For more information on the Electric parking brake, refer to the corresponding section.
Particle filter (Diesel)
When the particle filter is approaching saturation, this warning lamp comes on temporarily, accompanied by a message warning of the risk of filter clogging.As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at least 60 km/h (37 mph) until the warning lamp goes off.

163
Practical information
7
NOTIC E
If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a low Diesel additive level.For more information on Checking levels, refer to the corresponding section.
NOTIC E
Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust while accelerating. This has no impact on the vehicle’s behaviour or the environment.
NOTIC E
New vehicleDuring the first few particle filter regeneration operations, you may notice a "burning" smell. This is perfectly normal.
Wheels and tyres
The inflation pressure of all tyres, including the spare wheel, must be checked on "cold” tyres.
The pressures indicated on the tyre pressure label are valid for "cold" tyres. If you have driven for more than 10 minutes or more than 10 km (6
miles) at over 50 km/h (31 mph), add 0.3 bar (30 kPa) to the values indicated on the label.
WARNI NG
Under-inflation increases fuel consumption. Non-compliant tyre pressure causes premature wear on tyres and has an adverse effect on the vehicle's road holding - risk of an accident!
Driving with worn or damaged tyres reduces the braking and road holding performance of the vehicle. It is recommended to regularly check the condition of the tyres (tread and sidewalls) and wheel rims as well as the presence of the valves.When the wear indicators no longer appear set back from the tread, the depth of the grooves is less than 1.6 mm; it is imperative to replace the tyres.Using different size wheels and tyres from those specified can affect the lifetime of tyres, wheel rotation, ground clearance, the speedometer reading and have an adverse effect on road holding.Fitting different tyres on the front and rear axles can cause the ESC to mistime.
AdBlue® (Diesel engines)
To respect the environment and ensure compliance with the Euro 6 standard, without adversely affecting the performance or fuel consumption of its Diesel engines, TOYOTA has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with a system that associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a Diesel particle filter (DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
SCR System SCR
Using a liquid called AdBlue® that contains urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of the nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are harmless to health and the environment.The AdBlue® is contained in a special tank holding about 17 litres. Its capacity allows a driving range of approximately 6,000 km (3,700 miles), (which may vary considerably depending on your driving style and the vehicle). An alert system
is automatically triggered when the remaining range reaches 2,400 km (1,500 miles), i.e. once the reserve level has been reached.Several alerts are triggered successively during the remaining 2,400 km (1,500 miles) before the tank is empty and the vehicle blocked.

164
NOTIC E
For more information on the Warning and indicator lamps and the associated alerts, or the Indicators, please refer to the corresponding sections.
WARNI NG
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system
required by legislation prevents starting of the engine.If the SCR system is faulty, the level of emissions from the vehicle will no longer meet the Euro 6 standard: the vehicle becomes polluting.In the event of a confirmed SCR system malfunction, it is essential to visit a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop. After 1,100 km (680 miles), a device is automatically activated to prevent the engine from starting.In both cases, a range indicator indicates the distance that can be travelled before the vehicle is stopped.
NOTIC E
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below around -11°C.The SCR system includes a heater for the AdBlue® tank, allowing you to continue driving in very cold conditions.
Supply of AdBlue®
It is recommended that the AdBlue® be topped up as soon as the first alert is issued indicating that the reserve level has been reached.
WARNI NG
In order to ensure that the SCR system operates correctly:– Use only AdBlue® fluid that meets the ISO 22241 standard.– Never transfer AdBlue® to another container: it would lose its purity.
– Never dilute AdBlue® with water.
You can obtain AdBlue® from a TOYOTA dealer or in a qualified workshop.
NOTIC E
You can also visit a service station equipped with AdBlue® pumps specially designed for private vehicles.
WARNI NG
Never top up from an AdBlue® dispenser reserved for heavy goods vehicles.
Storage recommendations
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates above +25°C. Containers should be stored in a cool area and protected from direct sunlight.Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for at least a year.If the fluid has frozen, it can be used once it has completely thawed out in the ambient air.
WARNI NG
Never store AdBlue® containers in your vehicle.
Precautions for use
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This fluid is non-flammable, colourless and odourless (when kept in a cool place).In the event of contact with the skin, wash the affected area with soap and running water. In the event of contact with the eyes, immediately rinse the eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. Seek medical attention if you feel a persistent burning sensation or irritation.

165
Practical information
7
If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth with clean water and then drink plenty of water.In certain conditions (high temperature, for example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia vapours have an irritant effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).
WARNI NG
Store AdBlue® out of the reach of children, in
its original container.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level surface.In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is above -11 °C. Otherwise the AdBlue® may be frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank. Park the vehicle in a warmer area for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.
WARNI NG
Never put the AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel tank.
WARNI NG
If any AdBlue® is splashed, or if there are any spillages on the bodywork, rinse immediately with cold water or wipe with a damp cloth.If the fluid has crystallised, clean it off using a sponge and hot water.
WARNI NG
Important: in the event of a top-up after a breakdown because of a lack of AdBlue, it is essential to wait around 5 minutes before switching on the ignition, without opening the driver’s door, unlocking the vehicle, introducing the key into the ignition switch, or introducing the key of the “Keyless Entry and Starting ” system into the passenger compartment.Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 seconds before starting the engine.
► Switch off the ignition and remove the key from the switch to switch off the engine.or► With Keyless Entry and Starting, press the "START/STOP" button to switch off the engine.

► With the vehicle unlocked and the fuel filler flap open, turn the blue cap of the AdBlue® tank anti-clockwise and remove it.► With a container of AdBlue®: after checking the expiry date, read carefully the instructions on the label before pouring the contents of the container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.► With an AdBlue® pump: introduce the nozzle and fill the tank until the automatic cut-off of the nozzle.
WARNI NG
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:– Add between 10 and 13 litres using AdBlue® containers.– Stop after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-out, if you are refilling at a service station.
WARNI NG
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty – which is confirmed by the “Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible” message – it is essential to add at least 5 litres.

166
After refilling
► Refit the blue cap to the tank filler and turn it clockwise, as far as it will go.► Close the fuel filler flap.
Do not dispose of AdBlue® bottles or containers in the household waste.Place them in a container reserved for this purpose or take them back to where you purchased them.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, you must allow the vehicle to free-wheel (while being towed, on a rolling road, in an automatic car wash, or being transported by rail or sea freight, etc.).The procedure varies according to the type of gearbox and parking brake.
