Maintenance and care
AdBlue™ is used to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides in exhaust
gas. AdBlue™ is consumed in the process of driving. Therefore,
observe the following precautions.
● Vehicles without water-cooled intercooler:
1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp.qt.) of AdBlue™ is consumed every 1500 km
(932 miles). Normally, after a full refill, the vehicle can be driven for
approximately 15000 km (9321 miles) before all AdBlue™ is
depleted. However, AdBlue™ may become completely depleted
sooner depending on driving conditions.
● Vehicles with water-cooled intercooler:
1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp.qt.) of AdBlue™ is consumed every 600 km
(373 miles). Normally, after a full refill, the vehicle can be driven for
approximately 8000 km (4971 miles) before all AdBlue™ is
depleted. However, AdBlue™ may become completely depleted
sooner depending on driving conditions.
● When the possible driving range based on the remaining amount of
AdBlue™ reaches approximately 2400 km (1492 miles), the low
AdBlue™ level warning light turns on and a warning message is
displayed.
● When AdBlue™ is depleted, the engine cannot be restarted.
● If AdBlue™ is accidentally spilled while refilling, vehicle parts, paint,
etc. may be damaged.
When AdBlue™ needs to be refilled, have it refilled at any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
It may be a criminal offence to use a vehicle that does not consume
any reagent if it is required for the reduction of emissions.
■AdBlue™ warning light and warning message
When the AdBlue™ level is low,
the low AdBlue™ level warning
light turns on and a warning
message appears on the multi-
information display. ( P. 586)
When refilling AdBlue™ by
yourself in an emergency, be
sure to follow the correct refill-
ing procedures. ( P. 587)

■Refilling AdBlue™
● Use AdBlue™ (compliant with ISO 22241-1).
AdBlue™ is a trademark of the German Association of the Automotive
Industry (VDA).
● Before driving for a long period of time in an area where AdBlue™ cannot
be refilled, consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

Maintenance and care
■Refilling AdBlue™ by yourself in an emergency
When the engine cannot be restarted due to the depletion of
AdBlue™, adding approximately 5.0 L (5.3 qt., 4.4 Imp.qt.) or more
(vehicles without water-cooled intercooler), or approximately 9.0 L
(9.5 qt., 7.9 Imp.qt.) or more (vehicles with water-cooled inter-
cooler) of AdBlue™ will allow the engine to be started again. Per-
form the following procedures to refill AdBlue™. (The AdBlue™
tank has a capacity of 13.8 L [14.6 qt., 12.1 Imp.qt.].)
Refilling with the refilling equipment
Park the vehicle on a level surface, turn the engine switch off,
and then open the hood. ( P. 568)
Open the AdBlue™ tank cap.
Insert the nozzle and refill
AdBlue™.
Close the AdBlue™ tank cap.
Turn the cap until you hear a

Refilling with the bottle
Park the vehicle on a level surface, turn the engine switch off,
and then open the hood. ( P. 568)
Open the AdBlue™ tank cap.
Insert a bottle of AdBlue™
and fully tighten it.
Push down on the bottle.
AdBlue™ will begin to be
refilled. Refill AdBlue™ slowly
so that it does not spill. Do not
remove the bottle until it is
empty.
Check that no AdBlue™
remains in the bottle, and
then remove it.
Repeat steps 3 to 5 until approx-
imately 5.0 L (5.3 qt., 4.4
Imp.qt.) or more (vehicles with-
out water-cooled intercooler), or
approximately 9.0 L (9.5 qt., 7.9
Imp.qt.) or more (vehicles with
water-cooled intercooler) of
AdBlue™ have been refilled.
