If following another vehicle on a dusty
road, or driving in windy and dusty
conditions, it is recommended that the
air intake selector be temporarily set to
RECIRCULATE, which will close off the
outside passage and prevent outside
air and dust from entering the vehicle
interior.Heating
For best results, set controls to:
Fan speed— Any setting except “OFF”
Temperature— To w a r d s WARM (red
zone)
Air intake—FRESH (outside air)
Air flow—FLOOR
Air conditioning—OFF
For quick heating, select recirculated
air for a few minutes. To keep the
windows from fogging, select fresh af-
ter the vehicle interior has been
warmed.
Press the “A/C” button on for dehumidi-
fied heating.
Choose floor/windshield air flow to heat
the vehicle interior while defrosting or
defogging the windshield.

The air conditioning filter may clog af-
ter long use. The filter may need to be
replaced if the air flow of the air condi-
tioning and heater experiences extreme
reductions in operating efficiency, or if
the windows begin to fog up easily.
To maintain the air conditioning efficiency,
inspect and replace the air conditioning
filter according to the maintenance sched-
ule. In dusty areas or areas with heavy
traffic flow, such as inner city or desert
areas, early replacement may be required.
(For scheduled maintenance information,
please refer to the “Scheduled Mainte-
nance Guide” or “Owner ’s Manual Supple-
ment”.)

CALIBRATING THE COMPASS (circling
calibration)
Sometimes the direction display on the
compass may not change after a turn. To
rectify this, stop the vehicle and do as
follows.1. Push and hold the “SET” button for about 2 seconds. The zone number ap-
pears on the outside temperature dis-
play.
2. Push the “SET” button. “ −−” will start
moving.
TS10010
3. Drive the vehicle in a circle at 8 km/h (5 mph). If there is not enough space
to drive in a circle, drive around the
block.
When the compass display returns to the
outside temperature display, calibration is
complete.
When circling calibration fails, “Er” is dis-
played for 2 seconds and then “COM-
PASS” flashes. It also flashes when cir-
cling calibration is not completed.
If you want to cancel the calibration be-
fore it is complete, push the “SET” button
for about 2 seconds. Perform circling calibration just after
you have purchased your Toyota. And
then always perform circling calibration
after the battery has been removed, re-
placed or disconnected.
Do not perform circling calibration of
the compass in a place where the
earth’s magnetic field is subject to in-
terference by artificial magnetic fields
(underground parking, under a steel
tower, between buildings, roof parking,
near a crossing, near a large vehicle,
etc.).
During calibration, do not operate elec-
tric systems (power windows, etc.) as
they may interfere with the calibration.

The protection circuit may be activated to
cut the power supply if any of the follow-
ing conditions apply:
The engine is started with the power
outlet switch on.
Use of electrical appliances exceeding
the maximum capacity is attempted.
A sound may be heard when the
protection circuit is activated. This is
normal and does not indicate a mal-
function.
Electrical appliances, which consume
power exceeding 100W, have been
used continuously for a long time per-
iod.
The total power usage by all electrical
features (headlights, air conditioning,
etc.) has exceeded the total vehicle
maximum for an extended period of
time.
If the protection circuit is activated and
the power supply is cut, conduct the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe area, and then securely apply the parking brake.
2. Check and ensure the following condi- tions: Automatic transmission models: The
selector lever is in the “P” or “N” posi-
tion.
Manual transmission models: The shift
lever is in the neutral position and the
clutch pedal is not depressed.
3. Make sure that the power consumption of the electric appliance is within the
maximum capacity of the power outlet
and the appliance is not broken.
4. Push the power outlet main switch again.
When the cabin temperature is high, open
the windows to cool the temperature
down. Once it reaches the normal temper-
ature, turn the power outlet main switch
on again.
If the power supply is not resumed even
after performing the above procedure,
have the vehicle inspected by a Toyota
dealer.

The power supply starts a few seconds
after the main switch is pressed.
If the main switch is pressed repeatedly
at short intervals, the indicator light may
remain unchanged, but this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
When the power outlet is in operation, the
sound of the cooling fan may be heard
from the right side of the luggage
compartment. This is normal and does not
indicate a malfunction.
After removing a plug from the power out-
let, ensure that the power outlet lid is
properly closed.
CAUTION
Use of the power outlet when it is
wet with drinking water or snow
may result in electrical shocks and
is extremely dangerous. The power
outlet must be thoroughly dried be-
fore use.
Do not allow children to use or
play with the power outlet.
Be careful not to get any part of
your body caught in the power out-
let lid.
When using electrical appliances,
strictly follow any cautions and no-
tices written on their labels and in
the manufacturers’ instruction man-
uals.
Do not modify, disassemble or
repair the power outlet or its
inverter, in any way. Doing so may
result in unexpected malfunctions
or accidents, which could cause
serious damage or injuries. Contact
a Toyota dealer for any necessary
repairs.
To prevent injuries and accidents, se-
curely fix all electric appliances be-
fore use and do not use any ap-
pliances that may do any of the fol-
lowing:
Distract the driver while driving, or
hamper safe driving.
Result in a fire or burn injuries due
to the appliance rolling, falling or
overheating while driving.
Emit steam, while the windows of
the cabin are closed.
Do not perform any of the following.
Doing so is very dangerous and may
cause unexpected accidents, such as
electric shocks.
Using the power outlet for electric
heaters while sleeping.
Contaminating the power outlet with
liquid substances or mud.
Handling electrical appliance plugs
at the power outlet with wet hands
or feet.
Inserting foreign objects into the
power outlet.
Using malfunctioning electric ap-
pliances.
Inserting inappropriate or badly fit-
ting plugs into the power outlet.

CAUTION
Avoid inhaling the engine exhaust.
It contains carbon monoxide, which
is a colorless and odorless gas. It
can cause unconsciousness or even
death.
Make sure the exhaust system has
no holes or loose connections. The
system should be checked from
time to time. If you hit something,
or notice a change in the sound of
the exhaust, have the system
checked immediately.
Do not run the engine in a garage
or enclosed area except for the
time needed to drive the vehicle in
or out. The exhaust gases cannot
escape, making this a particularly
dangerous situation.
Do not remain for a long time in a
parked vehicle with the engine run-
ning. If it is unavoidable, however,
do so only in an unconfined area
and adjust the heating or cooling
system to force outside air into the
vehicle.
Keep the back door and back win-
dow closed while driving. An open
or unsealed back door and back
window, may cause exhaust gases
to be drawn into the vehicle.
To allow proper operation of your
vehicle’s ventilation system, keep
the inlet grilles in front of the wind-
shield clear of snow, leaves, or oth-
er obstructions.
If you smell exhaust fumes in the
vehicle, open the windows and
close the back door and back win-
dow to ensure plenty of fresh air
enters the vehicle. If you can smell
exhaust fumes even though there
are no other vehicles in the sur-
rounding area, have your vehicle
checked by your Toyota dealer.
Continued inhalation of exhaust
fumes can lead to death by gas poi-
soning.
FUNCTIONS OF ENGINE OIL
Engine oil has the primary functions of
lubricating and cooling the inside of the
engine, and plays a major role in main-
taining the engine in proper working order.
ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION
It is normal that an engine should con-
sume some engine oil during normal
engine operation. The causes of oil
consumption in a normal engine are as
follows.
Oil is used to lubricate pistons, piston
rings and cylinders. A thin film of oil
is left on the cylinder wall when a pis-
ton moves downwards in the cylinder.
High negative pressure generated when
the vehicle is decelerating sucks some
of this oil into the combustion chamber.
This oil as well as some part of the oil
film left on the cylinder wall is burned
by the high temperature combustion
gases during the combustion process.
Oil is also used to lubricate the stems
of the intake valves. Some of this oil
is sucked into the combustion chamber
together with the intake air and is
burned along with the fuel. High tem-
perature exhaust gases also burn the
oil used to lubricate the exhaust valve
stems.

NOTICE
Do not use engine antifreeze or any
other substitute because it may dam-
age your vehicle’s paint.
Do not use your parking brake when
there is a possibility it could freeze.
When parking, put the transmission into
“P” (automatic) or into first or reverse
(manual) and block the front wheels. Do
not use the parking brake, or snow or
water accumulated in and around the
parking brake mechanism may freeze,
making it hard to release.
Keep ice and snow from accumulating
under the fenders.
Ice and snow built up under your fenders
can make steering difficult. During bad
winter driving, stop and check under the
fenders occasionally.
Depending on where you are driving,
we recommend you carry some emer-
gency equipment.
Some of the things you might put in the
vehicle are tire chains, window scraper,
bag of sand or salt, flares, small shovel,
jumper cables, etc.TS30001
Your vehicle is not designed to be
dinghy towed (with four wheels on the
ground) behind a motorhome.
NOTICE
Do not tow your vehicle with four
wheels on the ground. This may
cause serious damage to your vehicle.
Your vehicle is designed primarily as a
passenger−and− load− carrying vehicle. Tow-
ing a trailer will have an adverse effect on
handling, performance, braking, durability
and driving economy (fuel consumption,
etc.). Your safety and satisfaction depend
on the proper use of correct equipment
and cautious driving habits. For your safe-
ty and the safety of others, you must not
overload your vehicle or trailer. Ask your
local Toyota dealer for further details be-
fore towing.
WEIGHT LIMITS
Before towing, make sure the total trail-
er weight, gross combination weight,
gross vehicle weight, gross axle weight
and trailer tongue load are all within
the limits.
The total trailer weight and tongue load
can be measured with platform scales
found at a highway weighing station, build-
ing supply company, trucking company,
junk yard, etc.
