Additional Maintenance Items for Special Operating Conditions3
Driving on dirt roads or dusty roads:Inspect engine air filter
Replace engine oil and oil filter2
Tighten nuts and bolts on chassis and body
Driving while towing, using a car-top carrier, or heavy vehicle loading:5
Replace engine oil and oil filter2
Tighten nuts and bolts on chassis and body
Repeated trips of less than five miles in temperatures below 32°F / 0°C:
Replace engine oil and oil filter2
Extensive idling and/or low speed driving for a long distance such as police, taxi or
door-to-door delivery use:
Clean HV battery cooling intake filter
Replace engine oil and oil filter2
NOTE: Driving in heavy traffic, on dirt roads or in urban, dusty or desert areas may
shorten the life of the cabin air filter. Replacement may be needed if you notice
reduced air flow from the air conditioner and heater or if the windows fog easily
when you use the Fresh mode. Consult your dealer if any of these conditions occur.
1 Inspect sealed transmissions, transfer cases and differentials for signs of leakage. If any leakage from a sealed
component is suspected, it is recommended that you have the sealed component inspected by a Toyota dealer. Inspect
power steering fluid (if equipped) and brake fluid level/condition. Inspect engine and inverter (if equipped) coolant
level/condition/freezing point. Your dealer may recommend services (Dealer-Recommended Maintenance) based on
inspection results.
2
Reset the oil replacement reminder light (“MAINT REQD”) or the message “OIL MAINTENANCE REQUIRED” on the
multi-information display after maintenance at every 5,000 miles.
3 Perform these service items only if you drive primarily under the conditions indicated.4
Refer to “Engine/Inverter Coolant” in the “Explanation of Maintenance Items” section in the back of this guide for

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
T
he following descriptions are
provided to give you a better
understanding of the maintenance

items that should be performed on your
vehicle. The scheduled maintenance log
indicates at which mileage/time intervals

each item should be performed. Please
note that many maintenance items should
be performed only by a qualified technician.
For further information on maintenance
items you can perform yourself, see the
“Maintenance and Care” section of the
Owner’s Manual.
Automatic Transmission Fluid
Inspect or replace at specified intervals.
When performing inspections, check each
component for signs of leakage. If you
discover any leakage, have it repaired by
a qualified technician immediately.
Ball Joints and Dust Covers
Check the suspension and steering
linkage ball joints for looseness and
damage. Check all dust covers for
deterioration and damage. Replace
any deteriorated or damaged parts.
A qualified technician should perform
these operations.
Brake Lines and Hoses
Visually inspect for proper installation.
Check for chafing, cracks, deterioration
and signs of leakage. Replace any
deteriorated or damaged parts. A qualified
technician should perform these operations.
Brake Linings/Drums and
Brake Pads/Discs
Check the brake linings (shoes) and
drums for scoring, burning, fluid leakage,
broken parts and excessive wear. Check
the pads for excessive wear and the discs
for runout, excessive wear and fluid
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts. A qualified technician
should perform these operations.
Cabin Air Filter
Replace at specified intervals. Driving in
heavy traffic, on dirt roads or in urban,
desert or dusty areas may shorten filter’s
life. More frequent replacement may
be necessary.
Drive Shaft Boots
Check the drive shaft boots and clamps for
cracks, deterioration and damage. Replace
any deteriorated or damaged parts and, if
necessary, repack the grease. A qualified
technician should perform these operations.

Driver’s Floor Mat
•
Only use the driver’s floor mat
designed specifically for the model
and model year of your vehicle.
•
Always properly secure the driver’s
floor mat using the retaining hooks.
•
Never install another floor mat on top
of the existing driver’s floor mat.
•
Never install the driver’s floor mat
upside down.
Engine Air Filter
Inspect or replace at specified intervals.
When performing inspections, check for
damage, excessive wear and oiliness, and
replace if necessary.
Engine/Inverter Coolant
Drain the cooling system and refill with an
ethylene-glycol type coolant. Inspect hoses
and connections for corrosion and leaks.
Tighten connections and replace parts
when necessary. A qualified technician
should perform these operations. (For
further details, refer to “Radiator, Condenser
and Hoses” in the “Maintenance and Care”
section of the Owner’s Manual ).
Your Toyota is equipped with Genuine
Toyota Super Long-Life Coolant. The
replacement intervals for engine coolant
recommended in this booklet are based
on replacement with Genuine Toyota
Super Long-Life Coolant or similar
high-quality non-silicate, non-amine,
non-borate ethylene-glycol coolant with
long-life hybrid organic acid technology
(i.e., a combination of low phosphates
and organic acids). If another type of
ethylene-glycol coolant is used,
replacement intervals may be different.

EXPLANATION OF MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Engine Oil and Oil Filter
Replace the oil filter and drain and refill
the engine oil at specified intervals. For
recommended oil grade and viscosity,
refer to the Owner’s Manual.
NOTE: Your vehicle is certified with
Genuine Toyota 0W-16 motor oil. For
VEHICLES CERTIFIED FOR 0W-16 motor
oil, the oil change interval is 10,000 miles
or 12 months IF 0W-16 MOTOR OIL IS
BEING USED. If 0W-16 is not available,
0W-20 mineral oil may be used. However,
it must be replaced at a 5,000-miles or
six-month INTERVAL with 0W-16 motor oil.
For customers who primarily drive their
vehicle under any of the listed Special
Operating Conditions, the motor oil and
filter should be replaced at 5,000 miles or
six months, REGARDLESS OF THE OIL USED
(OR CERTIFICATION OF THE VEHICLE).
Exhaust Pipes and Mountings
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes, muffler
and hangers for cracks, deterioration and
damage. Start the engine and listen
carefully for any exhaust gas leakage.
Tighten connections or replace parts
as necessary.
Fuel Lines and Connections,
Fuel Tank Band and Fuel Tank
Vapor Vent System Hoses
Visually inspect for corrosion, damage,
cracks, and loose or leaking connections.
Tighten connections or replace parts
as necessary.
Fuel Tank Cap Gasket
Visually inspect for cracks, deterioration
and damage and replace if necessary.
HV Battery Cooling Intake Filter
Clean at specified intervals.
Nuts and Bolts on Chassis
and Body
Retighten the seat-mounting bolts and
front /rear suspension member retaining
bolts to specified torque.

Radiator, Condenser
and/or Intercooler
Inspect for debris, corrosion and signs
of damage. Have any problem repaired
immediately by a qualified technician.
Spark Plugs
Replace at specified intervals. Install new
plugs of the same type as originally
equipped. A qualified technician should
perform this operation.
Steering Gear
Inspect for signs of leakage. If you
discover any leakage, have it repaired
immediately by a qualified technician.
