MAINTENANCE
MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE 
INFORMATION
It is especially important to both  
routinely check your vehicle’s engine   
oil level (once a month) and regularly 
replace the engine oil and oil  lter   
(see the Maintenance Log section of   
his booklet to determine how often   
you should change your vehicle’s oil   
and  lter). Failure to do so can cause   
oil starvation and/or oil gelling, which   
can result in severe damage to your 
vehicle and require costly repairs that   
are not covered by the New Vehicle 
Limited Warranty.
Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to   
the recommendations in this booklet is 
required to ensure that your warranty 
coverage remains intact. You should keep 
detailed records of vehicle maintenance, 
including date of service, mileage at time   
of service and a description of service   
and/or parts installation performed. The 
scheduled maintenance log in this booklet   
can help you document this information. If 
you sell your vehicle, be sure to give your 
maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records 
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by lack   
of proper maintenance is not covered   
under warranty.
 
 
Maintenance Providers 
Maintenance and repair services may be 
performed by you or by any automotive 
service provider you choose. Toyota will   
not deny a warranty claim solely because  
you used a service provider other than a 
Toyota dealership for maintenance and 
repairs. However, damage or failure   
caused by improper maintenance or   
repairs are not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended 
Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more   
frequent maintenance intervals or more 
maintenance services than those listed in   
the scheduled maintenance log. These 
additional services are not required to 
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask 
your dealer to explain any recommended 
maintenance not included in the scheduled 
maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota 
warranty coverages, see the Warranty 
Information portion of this booklet.

USING THE MAINTENANCE LOG CHARTS
MAINTENANCE
Special Operating Conditions
In addition to standard maintenance items, 
the maintenance log indicates services that 
should be performed on vehicles that are 
driven under especially demanding  
conditions. These “special operating 
conditions” and their required maintenance 
items are clearly indicated in each chart.
NOTE:
You should perform these additional 
maintenance services only if the   
majority  of your driving is done under   
the special operating conditions 
indicated. If you only occasionally   
drive under these circumstances, it   
is not necessary to perform the 
additional services.
Engine Oil Selection
Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for the 
speci c oil viscosity rating recommended   
for your vehicle/engine type.
Additional Maintenance
In addition to scheduled maintenance,   
your Toyota requires ongoing general 
maintenance, such as  uid checks and   
visual inspections. These procedures are 
explained in the “Maintenance and Care” 
section of the 
Owner ’s Manual. Be sure   
to perform these procedures regularly to 
ensure the most trouble-free operation   
of your vehicle.
SuperChrome and  
Alloy Wheel Care
If you purchased genuine Toyota accessory 
Aluminum Alloy Wheels, follow these cleaning 
guidelines to maintain the appearance of your 
alloy wheels:
•    If wheels are hot, wait for them to cool 
before washing.
•    Use a soft sponge or cotton cloth to   
apply the same mild car-wash soap as   
used for the vehicle body. Quickly rinse   
off with water. Use a soft cloth to apply   
the same car wax as used for the   
vehicle body.
•   
DO NOT USE: Any kind of chemical-  
based cleaners, alcohol, solvents,   
gasoline, steam cleaners, scouring  
pads, wire brushes or coarse abrasives  
to clean your wheels.
