WARNING

To prevent the windshield from fogging up

Do  not  use 

  during  cool  air  operation  in  extremely  humid

weather. The  difference  between  the  temperature  of  the  outside  air  and
that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog
up, blocking your vision.

To prevent burns

Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.

Do not touch the glass at lower part of the windshield or to the side of the
front pillars when the windshield wiper de-icer is on. (vehicles with wind-
shield wiper de-icer)

NOTICE

To prevent battery discharge

Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the
engine is not running.

Do not place anything on the instrument
panel  which  may  cover  the  air  outlets.
Otherwise,  air  flow  may  be  obstructed,
preventing  the  windshield  defoggers
from defogging.

The wireless charger can be operated when

The engine switch is in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode.

Usable portable devices

Qi standard wireless charge standard can be used on compatible devices. 
However, not all Qi standard devices and compatibility are guaranteed. 
Starting with mobile phones and smart phones, it is aimed for low power elec-
trically supplied portable devices of no more than 5W.

When covers and accessories are attached to portable devices

Do not charge in situations where cover and accessories not able to handle
Qi are attached to the portable device. Depending on the type of cover and
accessory, it may not be possible to charge. When charging is not performed
even with the portable device placed on the charge area, remove the cover
and accessories.

While charging, noise enters the AM radio

Turn off the wireless charger and confirm that the noise has decreased. If the
noise decreases, continuously pushing the power supply switch of the wire-
less charger for 2 seconds, the frequency of the charger can be changed and
the noise can be reduced. 
Also, on that occasion, the operation indicator light will flash orange 2 times.

Important points of the wireless charger

If the electronic key cannot be detected within the vehicle interior, charging
cannot  be  done.  When  the  door  is  opened  and  closed,  charging  may  be
temporarily suspended.

When  charging,  the  wireless  charging  device  and  portable  device  will  get
warmer, however this is not a malfunction. 
When a portable device gets warm while charging, charging may stop due
to the protection function on the portable device side. In this case, when the
temperature of the portable device drops significantly, charge again.

Operation sounds

When the power supply is turned on, while searching for the portable device a
sound will be produced, however this is not a malfunction.

Cleaning and protecting the vehicle exterior

Working  from  top  to  bottom,  liberally  apply  water  to  the  vehicle
body, wheel wells and underside of the vehicle to remove any dirt
and dust.

Wash  the  vehicle  body  using  a  sponge  or  soft  cloth,  such  as  a
chamois.

For hard-to-remove marks, use car wash soap and rinse thoroughly
with water.

Wipe away any water.

Wax the vehicle when the waterproof coating deteriorates.

If  water  does  not  bead  on  a  clean  surface,  apply  wax  when  the  vehicle
body is cool.

Automatic car washes

Fold  the  mirrors  back  before  washing  the  vehicle.  Start  washing  from  the
front of the vehicle. Make sure to extend the mirrors before driving.

Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and
harm your vehicle’s paint.

Rear  spoiler  (if  equipped)  may  not  be  washable  in  some  automatic  car
washes. There may also be an increased risk of damage to vehicle.

High pressure car washes

As  water  may  enter  the  cabin,  do  not  bring  the  nozzle  tip  near  the  gaps
around the doors or perimeter of the windows, or spray these areas continu-
ously.

Wheels (Including surrounding parts)

Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent.

Wash detergent off with water immediately after use.

To protect the paint from damage, make sure to observe the following pre-
cautions.
• Do not use acidic, alkaline or abrasive detergent
• Do not use hard brushes
• Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, such as after driv-

ing or parking in hot weather

Bumpers and side moldings

Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.

Perform  the  following  to  protect  the  vehicle  and  maintain  it  in

If dirt cannot be removed, clean the parts as follows:

Use  a  soft  cloth  dampened  with  an  approximately  5%  solution  of  neutral
detergent and water to clean the dirt off.

Wipe the surface with a dry, soft cloth to remove any remaining moisture.

To remove oily deposits, use alcohol wet wipes or a similar product.

Notes for a smart key system

If the door handle becomes wet while the electronic key is within the effec-
tive range, the door may lock and unlock repeatedly. Place the key in a posi-
tion 6 ft. (2 m) or more separate from the vehicle while the vehicle is being
washed. (Take care to ensure that the key is not stolen.)

If the electronic key is inside the vehicle and a door handle becomes wet
during a car wash, a message may be shown on the multi-information dis-
play and a buzzer will sound outside the vehicle. To turn off the alarm, lock

cause the electrical components etc. to catch fire.

When  cleaning  the  windshield  (vehicles  with  rain-sensing  windshield
wiper)

When  the  upper  part  of  the  windshield  where  the  raindrop  sensor  is
located is touched by hand

When a wet rag or similar is held close to the raindrop sensor

If something bumps against the windshield

If you directly touch the raindrop sensor body or if something bumps into
the raindrop sensor

Precautions regarding the exhaust pipe

Exhaust gasses cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.
When  washing  the  vehicle,  be  careful  not  to  touch  the  pipe  until  it  has
cooled sufficiently, as touching a hot exhaust pipe can cause burns.

Precautions regarding the Blind Spot Monitor (if equipped)

If the paint of the rear bumper is chipped or scratched, the system may mal-
function.
If this occurs, consult your Toyota dealer.

Set the wiper switch to off.
If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wip-
ers may operate unexpectedly in the fol-
lowing  situations,  and  may  result  in
hands being caught or other serious inju-
ries  and  cause  damage  to  the  wiper
blades.
