Manual” is shown on the multi-
information display
●The message may be displayed while 
high load driving with particulate mat-
ter accumulating.
●Engine output (engine speed) is 
restricted when a certain amount of 
particulate matter accumulates, how-
ever, it is possible to drive the vehicle 
unless the malfunction indicator lamp 
comes on.
●Particulate matter can accumulate 
more quickly if the vehicle is fre-
quently driven short trips or at low 
speeds, or if the engine is regularly 
started in an extremely cold environ-
ment. Excessive accumulation of par-
ticulate matter can be prevented by 
periodically driving long distances 
continuously with intermittent releas-
ing of the accelerator pedal, such as 
when driving on highways and free-
ways.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp 
comes on or “Engine Maintenance 
Required Visit Your Dealer” is 
shown on the multi-information 
display

The GPF system collects par-
ticulate matter in the exhaust 
gas by using an exhaust gas 
filter.
The system will operate to 
regenerate the filter automati-
cally, depending on the vehicle 
conditions.

after closing the windows, it is recom-
mended that the air intake mode be set 
to outside air mode and the fan speed to 
any setting except off.
■Outside/recirculated air mode
●Setting to the recirculated air mode 
temporarily is recommended in pre-
venting dirty air from entering the 
vehicle interior and helping to cool the 
vehicle when the outside air tempera-
ture is high.
●Outside/recirculated air mode may 
automatically switch depending on the 
temperature setting or the inside tem-
perature.

6-4. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Maintenance and care
Rotate the tires in the order shown. 
Front
To equalize tire wear and help extend  
tire life, Toyota recommends that tire 
rotation is carried out approximately 
every 10000 km (6000 miles). 
When rotating front and rear tires which  
have different tire inflation pressures, 
do not fail to initialize the tire pressure 
warning system after tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire  
pressure warning system that uses  
tire pressure warning valves and  
transmitters to detect low tire infla- 
tion pressure before serious prob- 
lems arise. 
The tire pressure warning system  
of this vehicle adopts a 2-type  
warning system. 
 z When “Adjust Pressure” is dis- 
played (Normal Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn- 
ing light and warning buzzer when 
there is an unknown level of low tire 
pressure with the appearance of the tire 
due to natural air leakage as well as the 
pressure lowering due to changes in 
the pressure according to the outside 
temperature. (Ways of coping:  →P.322,  
357)
 z When “Immediately Check tire  
when Safe” is displayed (Emer- 
gency Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn- 
ing light and warning buzzer when 
there is a known level of low tire pres-
sure with the appearance of the tire due 
to pressure suddenly lowering. (Ways 
of coping:  →P.325) 
However, the system may not be able  
to detect sudden tire ruptures (bursting, 
etc.).
The tire pressure detected by the  
tire pressure warning system can  
be displayed on the multi-informa- 
tion display.
NOTICE
■If tire inflation pressure of each  tire becomes low while driving 
Do not continue driving, or your tires  and/or wheels may be ruined.
■Driving on rough roads 
Take particular care when driving on  roads with loose surfaces or potholes. 
These conditions may cause losses in  tire inflation pressure, reducing the cushioning ability of the tires. In addi- 
tion, driving on rough roads may  cause damage to the tires them-selves, as well as the vehicle’s  
wheels and body.
