Checking levels
Take care when working under the bonnet, as certain areas of the engine may be extremely hot (risk of burns) and the cooling fan could start at any time (even with the ignition off).
Engine oil level
The check is carried out either when the ignition is switched on using the oil level indicator in the instrument panel for vehicles so equipped, or using the dipstick.
Checking using the dipstick
The location of the dipstick is shown in the corresponding underbonnet layout view.F Take the dipstick by its coloured grip and remove it completely.F Wipe the end of the dipstick using a clean non-fluffy cloth.F Refit the dipstick and push fully down, then pull it out again to make the visual check: the correct level is between the marks A and B.
Check all of these levels regularly, in line with the manufacturer's ser vice schedule. Top them up if necessary, unless other wise indicated.If a level drops significantly, have the corresponding system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
A = MA X
To ensure that the reading is correct, your vehicle must be parked on a level sur face with the engine having been off for more than 30 minutes.
It is normal to top-up the oil level between two ser vices (or oil changes). Toyota recommends that you check the level, and top-up if necessary, every 3 000 miles (5 000 kms).
B = MIN
If you find that the level is above the A mark or below the B mark, do not star t the engine.- If the level is above the MAX mark (risk of damage to the engine), contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.- If the level is below the MIN mark, you must top-up the engine oil.

Topping-up the engine oil level
The location of the oil filler cap is shown in the
corresponding underbonnet layout view.F Unscrew the oil filler cap to reveal the filler aperture.F Add oil in small quantities, avoiding any spills on engine components (risk of fire).F Wait a few minutes before checking the level again using the dipstick.F Add more oil if necessary.F After checking the level, carefully refit the oil filler cap and the dipstick in its tube.
After topping-up the oil, the check when switching on the ignition with the oil level indicator in the instrument panel
is not valid during the 30 minutes after topping up.
Engine oil change
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the inter val for this operation.In order to maintain the reliability of the engine and emission control system, never use additives in the engine oil.
The brake fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. If it is not, check the brake pad wear.
Brake fluid level
Changing the fluid
Refer to the manufacturer's service schedule for details of the inter val for this operation.
Fluid specification
The brake fluid must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Coolant level
The coolant level should be close to the "MA X" mark but should never exceed it.
In addition, as the cooling system is pressurised, wait at least one hour after switching off the engine before carrying out any work.To avoid any risk of scalding, unscrew the cap by two turns to allow the pressure to drop. When the pressure has dropped, remove the cap and top up the level.
The cooling fan may star t after switching off the engine: take care with ar ticles and clothing that might be caught by the fan blades.
When the engine is warm, the temperature of the coolant is regulated by the fan.
Check the coolant level regularly, according to the use made of your vehicle (every 3 000 miles or 5 000 kms / 3 months); if necessary, top-up using coolant recommended by the manufacturer.Topping-up the coolant between ser vices is normal.
Power steering fluid level
The power steering fluid level should be close to the "MA X" mark. With the engine cold, unscrew the cap to check the level.

275
Changing the coolant
The coolant does not have to be replaced at routine services.
Fluid specification
The coolant must conform to the manufacturer's recommendations.
The check and top-up must be done with the engine cold.A low coolant level presents the risk of serious damage to your engine.
If the ambient temperature is high, it is recommended that the engine be allowed to idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to facilitate its cooling.
Avoid prolonged contact of used oil or fluids with the skin.Most of these fluids are harmful to health or indeed very corrosive.
Do not discard used oil or fluids into sewers or onto the ground.Take used oil to an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional (France) or to an authorised waste disposal site.

Checks
12 V battery
The battery does not require any maintenance.However, check regularly that the terminals are correctly tightened (versions without quick release terminals) and that the connections are clean.
Refer to the manufacturer's ser vice schedule for details of the replacement inter vals for these components.
Air filter and passenger compartment filter
Replace the oil filter each time the engine oil is changed.Refer to the manufacturer's ser vice schedule for details of the replacement inter val for this component.
Oil filter
Particle filter (Diesel)
The start of saturation of the particle filter is indicated by the temporary illumination of this warning lamp accompanied by a message in the multifunction screen.
As soon as the traffic conditions permit, regenerate the filter by driving at a speed of at least 40 mph (60 km/h) until
the warning lamp goes off.If the warning lamp stays on, this indicates a low additive level.For more information on Checking levels, refer to the corresponding section.
On a new vehicle, the first particle filter regeneration operations may be accompanied by a "burning" smell, which is per fectly normal.Following prolonged operation of the vehicle at very low speed or at idle, you may, in exceptional circumstances, notice the emission of water vapour at the exhaust on acceleration. This does not affect the behaviour of the vehicle or the environment.
Unless other wise indicated, check these components in accordance with the manufacturer's service schedule and according to your engine.Other wise, have them checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
For more information and the precautions to take before starting work on the 12 V batter y, refer to the corresponding section.
Depending on the environment (e.g. dusty atmosphere) and the use of the vehicle (e.g. city driving), replace them twice as often if necessary.A clogged passenger compartment filter may have an adverse effect on the per formance of the air conditioning system and generate undesirable odours.
Versions equipped with Stop & Start are fitted with a 12 V lead-acid battery of specific technology and specification.Its replacement should be carried out only by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

AdBlue® and SCR system
for Diesel engines
To assure respect for the environment and conformity with the new Euro 6 emissions standard, without adversely affecting the per formance or fuel consumption of Diesel engines, Toyota has taken the decision to equip its vehicles with an effective system that associates SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) with a particle filter (DPF) for the treatment of exhaust gases.
Presentation of the SCR system
Using a fluid called AdBlue® containing urea, a catalytic converter turns up to 85% of nitrogen oxides (NOx) into nitrogen and water, which are harmless to health and the environment.
The AdBlue® is held in a special tank with a capacity of: - Euro 5.0: about 22 litres, this provides a driving range of about 10 500 miles (17 000 km); - Euro 6.2: about 20 litres, will cover a driving range of approximately 4 fill ups of fuel, about 3 000 miles (5 000 km); after which an alert is triggered warning you when the reser ve remaining is enough for just 1 500 miles (2 400 km).
During each scheduled ser vice of your vehicle by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional, the AdBlue® tank is refilled in order to allow normal operation of the SCR system.
Once the AdBlue® tank is empty, a system required by regulations prevents starting of the engine.If the SCR is faulty, the level of emissions from your vehicle will no longer meet the Euro 6 standard: your vehicle becomes polluting.In the event of a confirmed fault with the SCR system, you must go to an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as possible: after a running distance of 650 miles (1 100 km), a system will be triggered automatically to prevent engine starting.When filling the tank, the filling rate must not exceed 40 litres per minute.
If the estimated mileage between two ser vices is greater than 12 500 miles (20 000 km) for Euro 5.0 or more than 4 fill ups of fuel, about 3 000 miles (5 000 km) for Euro 6.2, we recommend that you go to an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to have the necessary top-up carried out.
Please contact your authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to confirm your "Euro" emissions standard.
Practical information

279
Topping-up the AdBlue®
Filling the AdBlue® tank is an operation included in every routine ser vice on your vehicle by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.Nevertheless, given the capacity of the tank, it may be necessary to top-up the fluid between ser vices, more particularly if an alert (warning lamps and a message) signals the requirement.You can go to an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.If you envisage topping-up yourself, please read the following warnings carefully.
Precautions in use
Keep AdBlue® out of the reach of children, in its original bottle.Never transfer AdBlue® to another container: it would lose its purity.
Use only AdBlue® fluid that meets the ISO 22241 standard.
Never dilute AdBlue® with water.Never pour AdBlue® into the Diesel fuel tank.
The supply in a non-drip bottle simplifies topping-up. You can obtain 1.89 litre (half a US gallon) bottles from an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Never top-up from an AdBlue® dispenser reser ved for heavy goods vehicles.
AdBlue® is a urea-based solution. This liquid is non-flammable, colourless and odourless (kept in a cool area).In the event of contact with the skin, wash the affected area with soap and water. In the event of contact with the eyes, wash (irrigate) the eyes with large amounts of water or with an eye wash solution for at least 15 minutes. If a burning sensation or irritation persists, get
medical attention.If swallowed, immediately wash out the mouth with clean water and then drink plenty of water.In certain conditions (high ambient temperature, for example), the risk of release of ammonia cannot be excluded: do not inhale the fluid. Ammonia vapour has an irritant effect on mucous membranes (eyes, nose and throat).ImportantIf your vehicle's AdBlue® tank is completely empty (which is confirmed by the alert messages and the impossibility of starting the engine) you must add at least 3.8 litres (so two 1.89 litre bottles).

Recommendations on storage
Never store bottles of AdBlue® in your vehicle.
AdBlue® freezes at about -11°C and deteriorates above 25°C. It is recommended that bottles be stored in a cool area and protected from direct sunlight.Under these conditions, the fluid can be kept for at least a year.If the additive has frozen, it can be used once it has completely thawed out.
Procedure
Before starting the top-up procedure, ensure that the vehicle is parked on a flat and level sur face.
F Switch off the ignition and remove the key, or if your vehicle has one, press the START/STOP button to switch off the engine.
F For access to the AdBlue® tank, open the left-hand front door.F From below, pull the black cover.
F Turn the blue cap a 6th of a turn anti-clockwise.F Lift off the cap.
Do not dispose of AdBlue® bottles in the household waste. Place them in a container provided for this purpose or take them to your dealer.
In wintry conditions, ensure that the temperature of the vehicle is above -11°C. Other wise the AdBlue® may be frozen and so cannot be poured into its tank. Park your vehicle in a warmer area for a few hours to allow the top-up to be carried out.

281
F After emptying the bottle, wipe away any spillage around the tank filler using a damp cloth.
If any additive is split or splashed, wash immediately with cold water or wipe with a damp cloth.If the additive has crystallised, clean it off using a sponge and hot water.
F Refit the blue cap to the tank and turn it a 6th of a turn clockwise, to its stop.
Important: when topping-up after running out of additive, signalled by the message "Top up emissions additive: Starting prevented", you must wait for about 5 minutes before switching on the ignition, without opening the driver's door, unlocking the vehicle, introducing the key into the ignition switch, or placing the key of the "Smar t Entr y & Star t System" inside the vehicle.Switch on the ignition, then wait for 10 seconds before starting the engine.
F Obtain a bottle of AdBlue®. After first checking the use-by date, read carefully the instructions on use on the label before pouring the contents of the bottle into your
vehicle's AdBlue® tank.
Freezing of the AdBlue®
AdBlue® freezes at temperatures below around -11°C.The SCR system includes a heater for the AdBlue® tank, allowing you to continue driving in very cold conditions.F Refit the black cover, starting at the top.F Close the door.
