Washer/wiper dual opera-

tion

Pulling the lever operates the wipers and
washer.
The wipers will automatically operate a
couple of times after the washer squirts.
(After operating several times, the wipers
operate once more time after a short delay
to prevent dripping. However, the dripping
prevention does not operate while the
vehicle is moving.)
When the engine switch <power switch> is
in IGNITION ON mode <ON mode> and
the headlights are on, if the lever is pulled,
the headlight cleaners will operate once.
After this, the headlight cleaners will oper-
ate every 5th time the lever is pulled.

The windshield wiper and washer can be

operated when

The engine switch <power switch> is in

IGNITION ON mode <ON mode>.

Raindrop sensor

The raindrop sensor judges the amount

of raindrops.

An optical sensor is adopted. It may not

operate properly when sunlight from the

rising or setting of the sun intermittently

strikes the windshield, or if bugs etc. are

present on the windshield.

If the wiper is turned to AUTO position

while the engine switch <power switch> is

in IGNITION ON mode <ON mode>,

the wipers will operate once to show that

AUTO mode is activated.

If the temperature of the raindrop sensor

is 85°C (185°F) or higher, or -30°C (-

22°F) or lower, automatic operation may

not occur. In this case, operate the wipers

in any mode other than AUTO.

If no windshield washer fluid sprays

Check that the washer nozzles are not

blocked if there is washer fluid in the wind-

shield washer fluid reservoir.

Door opening linked windshield wiper

stop function

When AUTO is selected and the wind-

shield wipers are operating, if a door is

opened, the operation of the windshield

wipers will be stopped to prevent anyone

near the vehicle from being sprayed by

water from the wipers, provided the vehicle

is stopped. When the door is closed, wiper

operation will resume.

To protect the windshield wipers

If movement of the windshield wipers is

largely restricted by a foreign object such as

snow, the operation of the windshield wip-

ers may be stopped automatically to pro-

tect the windshield wipers. In this case, turn

the windshield wiper switch off and remove

244

the foreign object, and then use the wind-

shield wipers.

When stopping the engine <hybrid sys-

tem> in an emergency while driving

If the windshield wipers are operating when

the engine <hybrid system> is stopped, the

windshield wipers will operate in high speed

operation. After the vehicle is stopped,

operation will return to normal when the

engine switch <power switch> is turned to

IGNITION ON mode <ON mode>, or

operation will stop when the driver’s door is

opened.

Before refueling the vehicle

WARNING

When refueling the vehicle

Observe the following precautions while

refueling the vehicle. Failure to do so may

result in death or serious injury.

After exiting the vehicle and before

opening the fuel door, touch an

unpainted metal surface to discharge

any static electricity. It is important to

discharge static electricity before refu-

eling because sparks resulting from

static electricity can cause fuel vapors

to ignite while refueling.

Always hold the grips on the fuel tank

cap and turn it slowly to remove it.

A whooshing sound may be heard

when the fuel tank cap is loosened.

Wait until the sound cannot be heard

before fully removing the cap. In hot

weather, pressurized fuel may spray

out the filler neck and cause injury.

Do not allow anyone that has not dis-

charged static electricity from their

body to come close to an open fuel

tank.

Do not inhale vaporized fuel.

Fuel contains substances that are

harmful if inhaled.

Do not smoke while refueling the vehi-

cle.

Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite

and cause a fire.

Do not return to the vehicle or touch

any person or object that is statically

charged.

This may cause static electricity to

build up, resulting in a possible ignition

hazard.

When refueling

Observe the following precautions to

prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel

tank:

Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the

fuel filler neck.

Stop filling the tank after the fuel noz-

zle automatically clicks off.

Do not top off the fuel tank.

NOTICE

Refueling

Do not spill fuel during refueling.

Doing so may damage the vehicle, such

as causing the emission control system to

operate abnormally or damaging fuel

system components or the vehicle’s

painted surface.

When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational range,
such as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an
extremely cold environment

If the front camera is hot, such as after the
vehicle had been parked in the sun, use the
air conditioning system to decrease the tem-
perature around the front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle was
parked, depending on its type, the sunlight
reflected from the surface of the sunshade
may cause the temperature of the front cam-
era to become excessively high.

If the front camera is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold envi-
ronment, use the air conditioning system to
increase the temperature around the front
camera.

Pre-collision warning

When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high, a

buzzer will sound and a warning mes-
sage will be displayed on the multi-
information display to urge the driver
to take evasive action.

PCS (Pre-Collision System)

The pre-collision system uses a radar sensor and front camera to detect vehi-
cles and pedestrians

in front of your vehicle. When the system determines

that the possibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is high, a
warning operates to urge the driver to take evasive action and the potential
brake pressure is increased to help the driver avoid the collision. If the system
determines that the possibility of a frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian
is extremely high, the brakes are automatically applied to help avoid the colli-
sion or help reduce the impact of the collision.

The pre-collision system can be disabled/enabled and the warning timing can be
changed. (

Pre-collision brake assist

When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the system applies greater braking
force in relation to how strongly the
brake pedal is depressed.

Pre-collision braking

When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the system warns the driver. If the sys-
tem determines that the possibility of a
frontal collision is extremely high, the
brakes are automatically applied to
help avoid the collision or reduce the
collision speed.

Suspension control

When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high,
the Adaptive Variable Suspension Sys-
tem (



P.324) will control the damp-

ing force of the shock absorbers to
help maintain an appropriate vehicle
posture.

Steering control (if equipped)

When the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is high
and the driver is operating the steering
wheel, the LDH system (



P.325) will

control the turning angle of the front
and rear wheels and effort necessary
to turn the steering wheel to help
enhance steering responsiveness.

WARNING

Limitations of the pre-collision system

The driver is solely responsible for safe

driving. Always drive safely, taking

care to observe your surroundings.

Do not use the pre-collision system

instead of normal braking operations

under any circumstances. This system

will not prevent collisions or lessen col-

lision damage or injury in every situa-

tion. Do not overly rely on this system.

Failure to do so may lead to an acci-

dent, resulting in death or serious

injury.

Although this system is designed to

help avoid a collision or help reduce

the impact of the collision, its effective-

ness may change according to various

conditions, therefore the system may

not always be able to achieve the same

level of performance.

Read the following conditions care-

fully. Do not overly rely on this system

and always drive carefully.

• Conditions under which the system

may operate even if there is no possi-

bility of a collision:



P.263

• Conditions under which the system

may not operate properly:



P.265

Do not attempt to test the operation of

the pre-collision system yourself.

Depending on the objects used for

testing (dummies, cardboard objects

imitating detectable objects, etc.), the

system may not operate properly, pos-

sibly leading to an accident.

Pre-collision braking

When the pre-collision braking func-

tion is operating, a large amount of

braking force will be applied.

Enabling/disabling the pre-colli-
sion system

The pre-collision system can be
enabled/disabled on

(



P.106) of

the multi-information display.

WARNING

If the vehicle is stopped by the opera-

tion of the pre-collision braking func-

tion, the pre-collision braking function

operation will be canceled after

approximately 2seconds. Depress the

brake pedal as necessary.

The pre-collision braking function may

not operate if certain operations are

performed by the driver. If the acceler-

ator pedal is being depressed strongly

or the steering wheel is being turned,

the system may determine that the

driver is taking evasive action and pos-

sibly prevent the pre-collision braking

function from operating.

In some situations, while the pre-colli-

sion braking function is operating,

operation of the function may be can-

celed if the accelerator pedal is

depressed strongly or the steering

wheel is turned and the system deter-

mines that the driver is taking evasive

action.

If the brake pedal is being depressed,

the system may determine that the

driver is taking evasive action and pos-

sibly delay the operation timing of the

pre-collision braking function.

When to disable the pre-collision sys-

tem

In the following situations, disable the

system, as it may not operate properly,

possibly leading to an accident resulting

in death or serious injury:

When the vehicle is being towed

When your vehicle is towing another

vehicle

When transporting the vehicle via

truck, boat, train or similar means of

transportation

When the vehicle is raised on a lift with

the engine running <hybrid system on>

and the tires are allowed to rotate

freely

When inspecting the vehicle using a

drum tester such as a chassis
