Toyota  recommends  “Toyota  Super  Long
Life  Coolant”,  which  has  been  tested  to
ensure  that  it  will  not  cause  corrosion  nor
result  in  malfunction  of  your  engine
coolant  system  with  proper  usage.  “Toyota
Super  Long  Life  Coolant”  is  formulated
with  long−life  hybrid  organic  acid
technology  and  has  been  specifically
designed  to  avoid  engine  cooling  system
malfunction  on  Toyota  vehicles.
Please  contact  your  Toyota  dealer  for
further  details.
If  any  of  the  above  parts  are  extremely
dirty  or  you  are  not  sure  of  their  condi-
tion,  take  your  vehicle  to  a  Toyota  dealer.
CAUTION
To  prevent  burning  yourself,  be  care-
ful  not  to  touch  the  radiator  or  con-
denser  when  the  engine  is  hot.
NOTICE
To  prevent  damage  to  the  radiator
and  condenser,  do  not  perform  the
work  by  yourself.
To  check  the  fluid  level,  simply  look  at
the  see−through  reservoir.  The  level
should  be  between  the  “MAX”  and
“MIN”  lines  on  the  reservoir.
It  is  normal  for  the  brake  fluid  level  to  go
down  slightly  as  the  brake  pads  wear.  So
be  sure  to  keep  the  reservoir  filled.
If  the  reservoir  needs  frequent  refilling,  it
may  indicate  a  serious  mechanical  prob-
lem.
If  the  level  is  low,  add  SAE  J1703  or
FMVSS  No.116  DOT  3  brake  fluid  to  the
brake  reservoir.
