Interior features WARNINGObserve the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause the driver's floor mat to slip, possibly interfering
with the pedals while driving. An unexpectedly high speed may result or it may
become difficult to stop the vehicle. This could lead to an accident, resulting in
death or serious injury.
■ When installing a floor mat
● Do not use floor mats designed for other models or different model year
vehicles, even if they are Toyota Genuine floor mats.
● Driver’s seat floor mat: Only use floor mats designed for the driver's seat.
● Front: Always install the floor mat securely using the retaining hooks (clips)
provided.
● Do not use two or more floor mats on top of each other.
● Do not place the floor mat bottom-side up or upside-down.
■ Before driving
● Front: Check that the floor mat is
securely fixed in the correct place with
all the provided retaining hooks (clips).
Be especially careful to perform this
check after cleaning the floor.
● Driver’s seat: With the engine stopped
and the shift lever in P (automatic trans-
mission) or N (manual transmission),
fully depress each pedal to the floor to
make sure it does not interfere with the
floor mat.

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 the light bulbs and any parts used to secure them. Failure to
do so may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering a light unit. This
may damage the light or cause condensation to build up on the inner side
of the lens.
■ When changing the back-up lights
Stop the engine and wait until the exhaust pipes have cooled down suffi-
ciently. The lights are located near the exhaust pipe and touching a hot
exhaust pipe can cause burns.
■ To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and locked.

When trouble arises
3075-1. Essential information
If your vehicle needs to be towed
Before towing
The following may indicate a problem with your transmission. Contact
your Toyota dealer before towing.
● The engine is running, but the vehicle will not move.
● The vehicle makes an abnormal sound.
Emergency towing
If a tow truck is not available in an emergency, your vehicle may be
temporarily towed using a cable or chain secured to the emergency
towing eyelet. This should only be attempted on hard surfaced roads
for short distances at low speeds.
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 an automatic transmission, only the front towing
eyelet may be used. If towing is necessary, we recommen d having your vehicle towed by
your Toyota dealer or a commerci al towing service, using a lift-type
truck or a flat bed truck.
Use a safety chain system for all to wing, and abide by all state/pro-
vincial and local laws.
If towing from the rear, the vehic le's front wheels and axles must be
in good condition. ( → P. 313)
If they are damaged, use a towing dolly or flat bed truck.
