■Ty p e A
Pull up the opener to open
the fuel filler door.
Turn the fuel tank cap slowly to remove it and hang it on the back
of the fuel filler door.
NOTICE
■ Refueling
● Do not spill fuel during refueling.
Doing so may damage the vehicle, such as causing the emission control
system to operate abnormally or damaging fuel system components or the
vehicle’s painted surface.
● Vehicles with DPF system:
Use the specified fuel. If fuel other than the specified fuel is used, white
smoke may be continuously emitted from the exhaust pipe during regener-
ating the filter. ( P. 398)

5447-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
HILUX_OM_OM0K322E_(EE)
WARNING
The engine compartment contains many mechanisms and fluids that may
move suddenly, become hot, or become el ectrically energized. To avoid death
or serious injury, observe the following precautions.
■ When working on the engine compartment
● Keep hands, clothing and tools away from the moving fan and engine
drive belt.
● Be careful not to touch the engine, radiator, exhaust manifold, etc. right
after driving as they may be hot. Oil and other fluids may also be hot.
● Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and rags, in the
engine compartment.
● Do not smoke, cause sparks or expose an open flame to fuel or the bat-
tery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
● Be extremely cautious when working on the battery. It contains poisonous
and corrosive sulfuric acid.
● Take care because brake fluid can harm your hands or eyes and damage
painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush the
affected area with clean water immediately.
If you still experience discomfort, consult a doctor.
■ Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc.
from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■ If you remove the air cleaner filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear
due to dirt in the air.
■ If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.

HILUX_OM_OM0K322E_(EE)
You may drain the fuel filter yourself. However, as the operation is dif-
ficult, we recommend having it drained by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. Even if
you decide to drain it yourself, contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
The water in the fuel filter needs to be drained if one of the following
symptoms occurs:
Vehicles without multi-information display
When the fuel system warning light flashes and a buzzer sounds.
( P. 612)
Vehicles with multi-information display
When “WATER ACCUMULATION IN FUEL FILTER SEE
OWNER’S MANUAL”/“Water accumulation in fuel filter See owner’s
manual” is shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer
sounds*1.
Vehicles without smart entry & start system: Turn the engine switch
to the “LOCK” position.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system: Turn the engine switch off.
Place a small tray under the drain plug or drain hose to catch the
water and any fuel that comes out.
Perform the draining as shown in the illustration.
Turn the drain plug counter-
clockwise about 2 to 2 1/2
turns.
Loosening more than this will
cause water oozing from around
the drain plug.
Operate the priming pump
until fuel begins to run out.
After draining, tighten the drain plug by hand.

When trouble arises
WARNING
■If a warning light comes on or a warning buzzer sounds when a warn-
ing message is shown on the multi-information display (vehicles with
multi-information display)
Check and follow the message shown on the multi-information display. Fail-
ure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■ If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place immediately and contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized r epairer, or any reliable repairer. The
vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the ABS system
may fail, which could cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on when the boost pressure in
the turbocharger is abnormally high (diesel engine)
Never drive at high speed or race the engine even after the lamp goes off.
■ If the fuel system warning light flashes (diesel engine)
Never drive the vehicle with the warn ing light flashing. Continued driving
with water accumulated in the fuel filter will damage the fuel injection pump.
