   *a	Filler Nozzle
   *b	0 to 6 mm (0 to 0.236 in.)

2. Add hybrid transaxle fluid until the hybrid transaxle fluid level is between 0 to 6 mm (0 to 0.236 in.) from the bottom lip of the filler plug opening. [#]

   Hybrid Transaxle Fluid Standard Capacity (for Reference)

   3.0 liters (3.2 US qts, 2.6 Imp. qts)

   NOTE:

   • When adding hybrid transaxle fluid, make sure that the vehicle is level.
   • Use TOYOTA GENUINE e-Transaxle Fluid TE.

     Using hybrid transaxle fluid other than the above type may cause abnormal noise or vibration, or ultimately damage the transaxle of the vehicle.

   • Be sure to fully insert the filler nozzle into the filler plug opening.
   • Be sure to add hybrid transaxle fluid slowly. If hybrid transaxle fluid is added quickly, the hybrid transaxle fluid may hit internal parts and bounce back, resulting in hybrid transaxle fluid coming out of the filler plug opening. When using a manual lever type oil bucket pump, operate the lever at a speed of approximately one pump every 2 seconds.
   • Be sure to directly check that the hybrid transaxle fluid level is within the specified range.
   • Driving the vehicle with an insufficient or excessive amount of hybrid transaxle fluid may damage the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly.
3. After adding hybrid transaxle fluid, leave the vehicle for 30 seconds so that the hybrid transaxle fluid surface can become still again, and then check that the hybrid transaxle fluid level is between 0 to 6 mm (0 to 0.236 in.) from the bottom lip of the filler plug opening. (If the hybrid transaxle fluid level is low, repeat this procedure from step [#].)
   NOTE:

   After adding hybrid transaxle fluid, make sure to check the hybrid transaxle fluid level.

4. Temporarily install the filler plug and gasket to the hybrid vehicle transaxle assembly.

   HINT: 

   Reuse the old gasket as the filler plug will be removed again.

See step  2

1. Check that hybrid transaxle fluid is not leaking from the joints or connected areas.
