This chapter describes all stan-

dard, country-specific and

optional features offered with

the series. It also describes fea-

tures and functions that are not

necessarily available in your

vehicle, e.g., due to the selected

options or country versions. This

also applies to safety-related

functions and systems. When

using these functions and sys-

tems, the applicable laws and

regulations must be observed.

Vehicle features and

options

If a malfunction occurs

while driving

WARNING

If a malfunction occurs while driv-

ing, immediately stop the vehicle

in a safe place.

If a warning light illuminates or

flashes, or a warning message is

displayed, immediately stop the

vehicle in a safe place. Do not

open the hood to inspect the

engine, as doing so may lead to

serious injury, such as steam

burns. If a warning message is

displayed, perform the necessary

procedures according to the dis-

played message or explanation in

the owner’s manual.
These warning messages indicate

that a malfunction has occurred in

a system or function of the vehi-

cle. If you continue to drive the

vehicle, the engine may stop sud-

denly, possibly leading to an acci-

dent. Also, even if no warning

lights are illuminated or messages

are displayed, if any abnormal

sounds, smells or vibrations are

detected, or of the engine stops

suddenly, refrain from opening the

hood to inspect the engine and

consult an authorized Toyota

retailer or Toyota authorized

repairer, or any reliable repairer.

WARNING

If you hear a loud noise or feel

something impact the underside

of the vehicle while driving, imme-

diately stop the vehicle in a safe

place.

5-1. MOBILITY

If you have been involved in a

collision, perform the following:

Immediately leave the vehi-

cle and move to a safe place

in order to avoid secondary

collisions. Make sure to turn

the engine switch off to help

prevent the vehicle from

catching fire. If the airbags

have deployed (inflated), the

WARNING

After stopping the vehicle in a

safe place, check the underside of

the vehicle for any leaking brake

fluid, oil or fuel. If any fluid is leak-

ing, stop driving immediately and

have the vehicle inspected by an

authorized Toyota retailer or Toy-

ota authorized repairer, or any

reliable repairer.
Brake and fuel lines run under the

floor of the vehicle. If any of these

lines are damaged, the brakes

may fail or leaking fuel may ignite

and cause a fire.

WARNING

During normal driving, do not turn

off the engine. Turning the engine

off while driving will not cause loss

of steering or braking control, but

the power assist to these systems

will be lost. This will make it more

difficult to steer and brake, so you

should pull over and stop the

vehicle as soon as it is safe to do

so.

WARNING

While driving, if a tire has been

punctured or has ruptured, firmly

grip the steering wheel, gradually

reduce the vehicle speed and

stop the vehicle in a safe place.

Avoid sudden braking and steer-

ing operations as doing so may

cause you to lose control of the

vehicle. Gradually reduce the

vehicle speed and stop the vehi-

cle in a safe place.

the parts with your hands or
any part of your body.

If someone has been injured,
contact emergency services
and request assistance. If
someone has no obvious
external injuries, but they
may have a head injury, keep
their airway open while mov-
ing them as little as possible.
If there is danger of the vehi-
cle being involved in a sec-
ondary collision, move the
injured person to a safe place
while keeping them as hori-
zontal as possible.

The LED flashes green when

a connection to the Toyota

Emergency Call Center has

The Toyota Emergency Call Center

then makes contact with the occu-

pants of the vehicle and initiates

further steps to help.
Even if you are unable to respond,

the Toyota Emergency Call Center

can take further steps to help you

under certain circumstances.
For this, data is transmitted to the

Toyota Emergency Call Center

which serves to determine the nec-

essary rescue measures. E.g., the

current position of the vehicle, if it

can be established.
Even if the Toyota Emergency Call

Center is no longer heard through

the loudspeakers, the Toyota Emer-

gency Call Center may still be able

to hear the occupants of the vehi-

cle.

The Toyota Emergency Call

Center ends the Emergency

call.

engine can be started using the

battery of another vehicle and

two jumper cables. Only use

jumper cables with fully insu-

lated clamp handles.

General information

In a vehicle wash, the vehicle

must be able to roll freely.

To roll or push the vehicle, refer

to page 128.
Some vehicle washes do not

permit persons in the vehicle.

The vehicle cannot be locked

from the outside when in selec-

tor lever position N. A signal

sounds when an attempt is

made to lock the vehicle.

Make sure that the remote con-

trol is in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state,

refer to page 44.

Do not rub wet headlights dry

and do not use abrasive or

acidic cleaning agents.
Soak areas that have been dirt-

ied, for instance from insects,

with shampoo and wash off with

water.
Thaw ice with de-icing spray; do

not use an ice scraper.

After washing the vehicle, apply

the brakes briefly to dry them;

otherwise, braking action can be

reduced. The heat generated

during braking dries brake discs

and brake pads and protects

them against corrosion.
Completely remove all residues

NOTICE

Improper use of automatic vehicle

washes can cause damage to the

vehicle. There is a risk of damage

to property. Follow the following

instructions:

●

Give preference to cloth vehicle

washes or those that use soft

brushes in order to avoid paint

damage.

●

Avoid vehicle washes with

guide rails higher than 4 in/10

cm to avoid damage to the

chassis.

●

Observe the tire width of the

guide rail to avoid damage to

tires and rims.

●

Fold in exterior mirrors to avoid

damage to the exterior mirrors.

●

Deactivate the wiper and, if nec-

essary, rain sensor to avoid

damage to the wiper system.

●

Do not treat the convertible top

with wax. Ensure that a cycle

without wax or a special cycle

for convertibles is available to

avoid damage to the convertible

top.

Regular care contributes to driv-

ing safety and value retention.

Environmental influences in

areas with elevated air pollution

or natural contaminants, such as

tree resin or pollen can affect

the vehicle's paintwork. Tailor

the frequency and extent of your

vehicle care to these influences.
Aggressive substances such as

spilled fuel, oil, grease or bird

droppings, must be removed

immediately to prevent the finish

from being altered or discolored.

Perform the following to protect

the vehicle.



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 a neutral detergent and

rinse thoroughly with water.



Wipe away any water.
