WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of the function
The driver is solely responsible for safe driving. Always drive safely, taking
care to observe your surroundings.
The RCTA function is only a supplement ary function which alerts the driver
that a vehicle is approaching from the right or left at the rear of the vehicle.
As the RCTA function may not functi on correctly under certain conditions,
the driver’s own visual confirmation of safety is necessary. Over reliance on
this function may lead to an accident resulting death or serious injury.

WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
● Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather.
The difference between the temperature of the outside air and that of the
windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, block-
ing your vision.
■ To prevent burns
● Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.
● Vehicles with windshield wiper de-icer: Do not touch the glass at the lower
part of the windshield or to the side of the front pillars when the windshield
wiper de-icer is on.
■ nanoe™ generator (if equipped)
Do not disassemble or repair the generator because it contains high voltage
parts.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer if the generator needs repair.
● Do not place anything on the instrument
panel which may cover the air outlets.
Otherwise, air flow may be obstructed,
preventing the windshield defoggers
from defogging.
