When driving
■
Daytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the headlights turn on
automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the hybrid system is started
and the parking brake is released. Da ytime running lights are not designed
for use at night.
For U.S.A.: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the switch.
■ Headlight control sensor
■ Automatic light off system
●When the headlights are on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 sec-
onds after all doors are closed with the “POWER” switch OFF. (The lights
turn off immediately if the button on the key is pressed after all
doors are locked.)
● When only the tail lights are on: The tail lights turn off automatically if the
“POWER” switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned OFF and the
driver’s door is opened.
● If any of the doors or trunk lid is left open, the lights automatically turn off
after 20 minutes.
To turn the lights on again, turn the “POWER” switch to ON mode, or turn the
headlight switch off and then back to the or position.
■ Customization that can be co nfigured at Toyota dealer
Settings of light sensor sensitivity can be changed. (Customizable features
→P. 421)
The sensor may not function properly if
an object is placed on the sensor, or any-
thing that blocks the sensor is affixed to
the windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.

Do not touch the radiators or condenser, as they may be hot and may be
burned.

Maintenance and care
Washer fluid
Add washer fluid in the following
situations.
●Any washer does not work.
● The warning message
appears on the multi-informa-
tion display.
NOTICE
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.
If the reservoir needs frequent refilling, it may indicate a serious problem.
CAUTION
■When refilling the washer fluid
Do not refill the washer fluid when the hybrid system is hot or operating, as
the washer fluid contains alcohol and may catch fire if spilled on the hybrid
system etc.
NOTICE
■Do not use any fluid other than washer fluid
Do not use soapy water or engine antifreeze instead of washer fluid.
Doing so may cause streaking on the vehicle’s painted surfaces.
■ Diluting washer fluid
Dilute washer fluid with water as necessary.
Refer to the freezing temperatures listed on the washer fluid tank.
