WARNING

Replacing light bulbs

Turn  off  the  lights.  Do  not  attempt  to  replace  the  bulb  immediately  after
turning off the lights. 
The bulbs become very hot and may cause burns.

Do not touch the glass portion of the light bulb with bare hands. When it is
unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a clean dry cloth
to avoid getting moisture and oils on the bulb.
Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped, it may blow out or crack.

Fully install light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to do so
may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the headlight unit. This
may damage the lights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.

Do not attempt to repair or disassemble the bulb, bulb base, electrical wir-
ing, or subcomponents. 
Doing so could result in electric shock and serious injury.

To prevent damage or fire

Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.

Check the wattage of the bulb before installing to prevent heat damage.

If your vehicle has to be stopped in an 

emergency

Steadily step on the brake pedal with both feet and firmly depress it.

Do  not  pump  the  brake  pedal  repeatedly  as  this  will  increase  the  effort
required to slow the vehicle.

Shift the shift lever to N.

If the shift lever is shifted to N
After slowing down, stop the vehicle in a safe place by the road.
Stop the engine.

If the shift lever cannot be shifted to N
Keep depressing the brake pedal with both feet to reduce vehicle
speed as much as possible.

WARNING

If the engine has to be turned off while driving

Power  assist  for  the  brakes  and  steering  wheel  will  be  lost,  making  the
brake  pedal  harder  to  depress  and  the  steering  wheel  heavier  to  turn.
Decelerate as much as possible before turning off the engine.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency

 If your vehicle needs to be towed

The following may indicate a problem with your transmission. Contact
your Toyota dealer or commercial towing service before towing.
● The engine is running but the vehicle does not move.
● The vehicle makes an abnormal sound.

Do not tow with a sling-type truck
to prevent body damage.

If  towing  is  necessary,  we  recommend  having  your  vehicle
towed  by  your  Toyota  dealer  or  commercial  towing  service,
using a wheel-lift type truck or flatbed truck.
Use a safety chain system for all towing, and abide by all state/
provincial and local laws.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency

If a tow truck is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using cables or chains secured to the emergency
towing hooks. This should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads
for at most 50 miles (80 km) at under 18 mph (30km/h). 
A driver must be in the vehicle to steer and operate the brakes. The
vehicle’s  wheels,  drive  train,  axles,  steering  and  brakes  must  be  in
good condition.

Securely attach cables or chains to the towing hooks.
Take care not to damage the vehicle body.

Enter the vehicle being towed and start the engine.
If the engine does not start, turn the engine switch to the “ON” posi-
tion.
4WD models: Put the front-wheel drive control switch in “2WD”.

WARNING

Observe the following precautions. 
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.

When towing the vehicle

While towing

When towing using cables or chains, avoid sudden starts, etc. which place
excessive stress on the towing hooks, cables or chains. The towing hooks,
cables  or  chains  may  become  damaged,  broken  debris  may  hit  people,
and cause serious damage.

Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position.
There is a possibility that the steering wheel is locked and cannot be oper-
ated.

2WD  models:  Be  sure  to  transport  the
vehicle with all four wheels raised off the
ground.  If  the  vehicle  is  towed  with  the
tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain
and related parts may be damaged or an
accident  may  occur  due  to  a  change  in
direction of the vehicle.
4WD  models:  Be  sure  to  transport  the
vehicle with all four wheels raised off the
ground.  If  the  vehicle  is  towed  with  the
tires contacting the ground, the drivetrain
or  related  parts  may  be  damaged,  the
vehicle may fly off the truck.

8-2. Steps to take in an emergency

NOTICE

To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing using a wheel-lift type
truck

Do  not  tow  the  vehicle  from  the  rear  when  the  engine  switch  is  in  the
“LOCK” position or the key is removed.
The steering lock mechanism is not strong enough to hold the front wheels
straight.

When raising the vehicle, ensure adequate ground clearance for towing at
the  opposite  end  of  the  raised  vehicle.  Without  adequate  clearance,  the
vehicle could be damaged while being towed.

To prevent damage to the vehicle when towing with a sling-type truck
Do not tow with a sling-type truck, either from the front or rear.

To prevent damage to the vehicle during emergency towing
Do not secure cables or chains to the suspension components.
