Fold the mirrors 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, parts (wheel, etc.) and

harm your vehicle’s paint.

■

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 continuously.

■

When using a car wash

If the door handle becomes wet

while the electronic key is within the

effective range, the door may lock

and unlock repeatedly. In that case,

To remove oily deposits, use alco-

hol wet wipes or a similar product.

WARNING

■

When washing the vehicle

Do not apply water to the inside of

the engine compartment. Doing

so may cause the electrical com-

ponents, etc. to catch fire.

■

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 touch-

ing a hot exhaust pipe can cause

burns.

■

Precaution regarding the rear

bumper with Blind Spot Moni-

tor (if equipped)

If the paint of the rear bumper is

chipped or scratched, the system

may malfunction. If this occurs,

consult your Toyota dealer.

NOTICE

■

To prevent paint deteriora-

tion and corrosion on the

body and components (alumi-

num wheels, etc.)

●

Wash the vehicle immediately in

the following cases:

• After driving near the sea coast

• After driving on salted roads

• If coal tar or tree sap is present

on the paint surface

• If dead insects, insect droppings

or bird droppings are present on

the paint surface

• After driving in an area contami-

nated with soot, oily smoke,

mine dust, iron powder or chem-

ical substances

• If the vehicle becomes heavily

soiled with dust or mud

• If liquids such as benzene and

gasoline are spilled on the paint

surface

●

If the paint is chipped or

scratched, have it repaired

immediately.

●

To prevent the wheels from cor-

roding, remove any dirt and

store in a place with low humid-

ity when storing the wheels.

■

Cleaning the exterior lights

●

Wash carefully. Do not use

organic substances or scrub

with a hard brush.

This may damage the surfaces

of the lights.

●

Do not apply wax to the sur-

faces of the lights.

Wax may cause damage to the

lenses.
