NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine and its components
Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed.
The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (“H”). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. (
P. 634)
While driving
When the voltmeter indicates more than 19 V or less than 9 V, the battery
may be malfunctioning. Have your vehicle checked at any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
When the engine oil pressure gauge does not work properly, immediately
stop the engine and contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Regeneration with the DPF switch
After pressing the DPF switch, do not depress the accelerator pedal.
Depressing the pedal will stop regeneration. If regeneration has been
stopped, restart regeneration as soon as possible.
If regeneration is carried out while the exhaust pipe is hot (for example
directly after driving), it will take less time than when the engine is cold.
Replacing the engine oil
Make sure to use an oil of the recommended grade or of matching quality.
(P. 652)
DPF system warning

L/C200_EE (OM60G38E)
NOTICE
To prevent the water damage
Take all necessary safety measures to ensure that water damage to the
engine or other components does not occur.
Water entering the engine air intake will cause severe engine damage.
Water entering the automatic transmission will cause deterioration in shift
quality, locking up of your transmission accompanied by vibration, and ulti-
mately damage.
Water can wash the grease from wheel bearings, causing rusting and pre-
mature failure, and may also enter the differentials, transmission and
transfer case, reducing the gear oil’s lubricating qualities.
When you drive through water
If driving through water, such as when crossing shallow streams, first check
the depth of the water and the bottom of the river bed for firmness. Drive
slowly and avoid deep water.
Inspection after off-road driving
Sand and mud that has accumulated in brake drums and around brake
discs may affect braking efficiency and may damage brake system compo-
nents.
Always perform a maintenance inspection after each day of off-road driv-
ing that has taken you through rough terrain, sand, mud, or water.
