HILUX_OM_OM0K789E_(EE)
DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) system
: If equipped
When the deposit collected by the filter reaches a predetermined
amount, it is automatically regenerated.
WARNING
■ During regeneration
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in serious injury such as burns caused by the hot
exhaust pipe and exhaust gases, or may cause a fire.
● Do not carry out regeneration when the vehicle is in an enclosed area,
such as a garage.
● Do not touch the exhaust pipe and exhaust gases during regeneration.
NOTICE
■To prevent the DPF system from failing
● Do not drive for long periods of time while the DPF system warning mes- sage “DPF full Visit your dealer” appears on the multi-information displayand a buzzer sounds (malfunction indicator lamp comes on)
● Do not use fuel other than the specified type
● Do not use engine oil other than the recommended type
● Do not modify the exhaust pipe
●Do not stop the vehicle where flamma-
ble materials, such as dry grass, are
near the exhaust pipe.
● Make sure that there are no people
near the exhaust pipe.

4787-1. Maintenance and care
HILUX_OM_OM0K789E_(EE)
NOTICE
■Cleaning detergents
● Do not use the following types of detergent, as they may discolor the vehi-
cle interior or cause streaks or damage to painted surfaces:
• Non-seat portions: Organic substances such as benzene or gasoline,
alkaline or acidic solutions, dye, and bleach
• Seats: Alkaline or acidic solutions, such as thinner, benzene, and alco-
hol
● Do not use polish wax or polish cleaner. The instrument panel’s or other
interior part’s painted surface may be damaged.
■ Preventing damage to leather surfaces
Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to and deterioration of
leather surfaces:
● Remove any dust or dirt from leather surfaces immediately.
● Do not expose the vehicle to direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
Park the vehicle in the shade, especially during summer.
● Do not place items made of vinyl, plastic, or containing wax on the uphol-
stery, as they may stick to the leather surface if the vehicle interior heats
up significantly.
■ Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.
Vehicle systems such as the audio system may be damaged if water comes
into contact with electrical components such as the audio system above or
under the floor of the vehicle. Water may also cause the body to rust.
■ When cleaning the inside of the windshield (vehicles with Toyota
Safety Sense)
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
( P. 2 6 6 )
■ Cleaning the inside of the rear window (vehicles with rear window
defogger)

Maintenance and care
If there are not lines on the side of the battery:
Check the fluid level as follows.
Remove the vent plug.
Check the fluid level by look-
ing directly at the cell.
If the fluid level is low, add dis-
tilled water.
Put the vent plug back on and close it securely.
■Adding distilled water (vehicles with maintenance type bat-
tery)
Remove the vent plug.
Add distilled water.
Put the vent plug back on and close it securely.
■ Before recharging
When recharging, the battery produces hydrogen gas which is flammable and
explosive. Therefore, observe the following before recharging:
● If recharging with the battery installed on the vehicle, be sure to disconnect
the ground cable.
● Make sure the power switch on the charger is off when connecting and dis-
connecting the charger cables to the battery.

Maintenance and care
WARNING
■Chemicals in the battery
Batteries contain poisonous and corrosive sulfuric acid and may produce
hydrogen gas which is flammable and explosive. To reduce the risk of death
or serious injury, take the following precautions while working on or near the
battery:
● Do not cause sparks by touching the battery terminals with tools.
● Do not smoke or light a match near the battery.
● Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothes.
● Never inhale or swallow electrolyte.
● Wear protective safety glasses when working near the battery.
● Keep children away from the battery.
■ Where to safely charge the battery
Always charge the battery in an open area. Do not charge the battery in a
garage or closed room w here there is insufficient ventilation.
■ How to recharge the battery (vehicles with maintenance-free type bat-
tery)
Only perform a slow charge (5 A or less). The battery may explode if
charged at a quicker rate.
■ Emergency measures regarding electrolyte
● If electrolyte gets in your eyes
Flush your eyes with clean water for at least 15 minutes and get immedi-
ate medical attention. If possible, continue to apply water with a sponge or
cloth while traveling to the nearest medical facility.
● If electrolyte gets on your skin
Wash the affected area thoroughly. If you feel pain or burning, get medical
attention immediately.
● If electrolyte gets on your clothes
It can soak through clothing on to your skin. Immediately take off the cloth-
ing and follow the procedure above if necessary.
● If you accidentally swallow electrolyte
Drink a large quantity of water or milk. Get emergency medical attention
immediately.
● When there is insufficient battery fluid
Do not use if there is insufficient fluid in the battery. There is a possible
danger that the battery may explode.
