After a fuse is replaced

●

When installing the lid, make sure

that the tab is installed securely.

●

If the lights do not turn on even

after the fuse has been replaced,

a bulb may need replacement.

●

If the replaced fuse blows again,

have the vehicle inspected by

your Toyota dealer.

■

If there is an overload in a cir-

cuit

The fuses are designed to blow, pro-

tecting the wiring harness from

damage.

■

When replacing light bulbs

Toyota recommends that you use

genuine Toyota products designed

for this vehicle.

Because certain bulbs are con-

nected to circuits designed to pre-

vent overload, non-genuine parts or

parts not designed for this vehicle

may be unusable.

WARNING

■

To prevent system break-

downs and vehicle fire

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may cause dam-

age to the vehicle, and possibly a

fire or injury.

●

Never use a fuse of a higher

amperage rating than that indi-

cated, or use any other object in

place of a fuse.

●

Always use a genuine Toyota

fuse or equivalent.

Never replace a fuse with a

wire, even as a temporary fix.

●

Do not modify the fuses or fuse

boxes.

NOTICE

■

Before replacing fuses

Have the cause of electrical over-

load determined and repaired by

your Toyota dealer as soon as

possible.

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. Fail-

ure to do so may result in heat

damage, fire, or water entering

the light unit. This may damage

the lights or cause condensa-

tion to build up on the lens.

■

To prevent damage or fire

Make sure bulbs are fully seated

and locked.

to be able to drive on roads
that are deeply flooded with
water. Do not drive on roads
where the roads may be
submerged or the water
may be rising. It is danger-
ous to remain in the vehicle,
if it anticipated that the vehi-
cle will be flooded or set a
drift. Remain calm and fol-

If your vehicle needs

to be towed

If towing is necessary, we
recommend having your
vehicle towed by your Toy-
ota dealer or commercial
towing service, using a
wheel-lift type truck or flat-
bed truck.

Use a safety chain system
for all towing, and abide by
all state/provincial and local
laws.

WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

■

When towing the vehicle

Be sure to transport the vehicle

with the front wheels raised or

with all four wheels raised off the

ground. If the vehicle is towed

with the front wheels contacting

the ground, the drivetrain and

related parts may be damaged.

■

While towing

●

When towing using cables or

chains, avoid sudden starts, etc.

which place excessive stress on

the towing eyelets, cables or

chains. The towing eyelets,

cables or chains may become

damaged, broken debris may hit

people, and cause serious dam-

age.

●

Do not turn the engine switch

off.

There is a possibility that the

steering wheel is locked and

cannot be operated.

■

Installing towing eyelets to

the vehicle

Make sure that towing eyelets are

installed securely.

If not securely installed, towing

eyelets may come loose during

towing.

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

off. The steering lock mecha-

nism is not strong enough to

hold the front wheels straight.

●

When raising the vehicle,

ensure adequate ground clear-

ance for towing at the opposite

end of the raised vehicle. With-

out 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.

When using a flat-bed truck to
transport the vehicle, use tire
strapping belts. Refer to the
owner's manual of the flat-bed
truck for the tire strapping
method.
In order to suppress vehicle
movement during transporta-
tion, set the parking brake and
turn the engine switch off.

an emergency, your vehicle may
be temporarily towed using
cables or chains secured to the
emergency towing eyelets. This
should only be attempted on
hard surfaced roads for at most
50 miles (80 km) at under 18
mph (30 km/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.
For vehicles with a continuously
variable transmission, only the
front towing eyelets may be
used.

To have your vehicle towed by
another vehicle, the towing eye-
let must be installed to your
vehicle. Install the towing eyelet
using the following procedure.

Take out the wheel nut
wrench, flathead screwdriver
and towing eyelet. (

Insert the towing eyelet into
the hole and tighten partially
by hand.

Tighten down the towing eye-
let securely using a wheel nut
wrench or hard metal bar.
