Explanation of Maintenance Items
NOTE: 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

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.
Engine Oil and 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.
Exhuast 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.
