Slowly pour coolant into the reserve tank until it reaches the F line.
| Coolant quantity |
|---|
| 2.1 liters (2.2 US qts, 1.8 Imp. qts.) |
When using the intelligent tester:
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the power switch on (IG).
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Hybrid Control / Active Test / Activate the Water Pump.
Keep the coolant at the F line in the reserve tank to compensate for the drop in coolant level when the air bleeds.
| Standard |
|---|
| Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the reserve tank improves. |
Tech Tips
Loud noise made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the reserve tank indicates that there is air in the cooling system.
When not using the intelligent tester:
Turn the power switch on (READY). [*1]
Turn the power switch off and add coolant to the F line because the coolant level drops as the air bleeds. [*2]
Note
Be sure to turn the power switch off before adding SLLC.
Do not work on the components in the engine compartment while the vehicle is in the READY-on state because the engine is in intermittent operation.
Repeat steps [*1] and [*2] until air bleeding from the cooling system is completed.
| Standard |
|---|
| Air bleeding from the inverter cooling system is completed when the noise made by the inverter water pump assembly becomes smaller and the circulation of coolant in the reserve tank improves. |
Tech Tips
Loud noise made by the inverter water pump assembly and poor circulation of coolant in the reserve tank indicates that there is air in the cooling system.
After the air is completely bled from the cooling system, tighten the reserve tank cap.
Add coolant to the F line of the reserve tank.
ADD COOLANT (for Engine)
Tighten the radiator drain cock plug.
Connect the hose to the air release valve. (w/ Air Release Valve)
Loosen the air release valve. (w/ Air Release Valve)
Add TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) to the reservoir tank filler opening until coolant overflows from the air release valve. Then tighten the air release valve. (w/ Air Release Valve)
Disconnect the hose from the air release valve. (w/ Air Release Valve)
| *1 | B Line |
Add TOYOTA Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) to the B line on the reservoir tank.

Tech Tips
TOYOTA vehicles are filled with TOYOTA SLLC at the factory. In order to avoid damage to the engine cooling system and other technical problems, only use TOYOTA SLLC or similar high quality ethylene glycol based non-silicate, non-amine, non-nitrite, non-borate coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology (coolant with long-life hybrid organic acid technology is a combination of low phosphates and organic acids).
Note
Never use water as a substitute for engine coolant.
Squeeze the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand, and then check the level of the coolant.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant.
Put the engine in inspection mode Click here.
Install the reservoir tank cap.
Bleed air from the cooling system.
Note
Before starting the engine, turn the A/C switch off.
Adjust the heater control to the maximum hot setting.
Adjust the blower speed to the low setting.
Warm up the engine until the thermostat opens. While the thermostat is open, allow the coolant to circulate for several minutes.
Tech Tips
The thermostat opening timing can be confirmed by squeezing the inlet radiator hose by hand, and sensing vibrations when the engine coolant starts to flow inside the hose.
CAUTION:
When squeezing the radiator hose:Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fan.
Squeeze the inlet and outlet radiator hoses several times by hand to bleed air from the system.
CAUTION:
When squeezing the radiator hose:Wear protective gloves.
Be careful as the radiator hoses are hot.
Keep your hands away from the radiator fan.
| *1 | Full Line |
| *2 | Low Line |
After the engine has cooled down, check that the coolant level is between full and low lines.
If the coolant level is low, add coolant to the full line on the reservoir tank.
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK (for Inverter)
Remove the reserve tank cap.
CAUTION:
To avoid the danger of being burned, do not remove the reserve tank cap while the coolant for the inverter is still hot.
Install the radiator cap tester.
Pump the radiator cap tester to 122 kPa (1.2 kgf/ cm2, 17.7 psi), and then check that the pressure does not drop.
Tech Tips
If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator, inverter water pump assembly, inverter with converter, and hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly for leaks.
Reinstall the reserve tank cap.
INSPECT FOR COOLANT LEAK (for Engine)
CAUTION:
Do not remove the reservoir tank cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
Note
Before performing each inspection, turn the A/C switch off.
Remove the reservoir tank cap.
Fill the radiator and reservoir with coolant, and then attach a radiator cap tester.
Put the engine in inspection mode Click here.
Warm up the engine.
Using a radiator cap tester, increase the pressure inside the radiator to 108 kPa (1.1 kgf/cm2, 16 psi), and check that the pressure does not drop. If the pressure drops, check the hoses, radiator, front exhaust pipe assembly and the heater hose around and engine water pump assembly for leaks. If no external leaks are found, check the heater core, cylinder block and cylinder head.
Remove the radiator cap tester.
Install the reservoir tank cap.
