OUTLINE
The cooling system uses a pressurized forced circulation system with a pressurized reservoir tank.
The pressurized reservoir tank is used to prevent the engine coolant from deteriorating upon contact with external air.
A thermostat with a bypass valve is located on the water outlet housing to maintain suitable temperature distribution in the cooling system.
An aluminum radiator core is used for weight reduction.
A water-cooled type engine oil cooler is provided as standard equipment.
A 3-stage temperature-controlled coupling fan, which uses bimetal, controls the fan speed in 3 stages to improve cooling performance and reduce cooling fan noise.
Toyota Genuine Super Long Life Coolant (SLLC) is used.
