■ Camera sensor
Observe the following to ensure that the LDA system functions correctly.
● Keep the windshield clean at all times.
Performance could be affected if the windshield is dirty, or if raindrops,
condensation or ice are adhering to the windshield.
● Do not spill liquid onto the camera sensor.
● Do not attach window tinting to the windshield.
● Do not install an antenna in front of the camera lens.
● If the windshield area in front of the camera sensor is fogged up, use the
windshield defogger to remove the fog from that area. ( →P. 261)
When it is cold, using the heater with air blowing to the feet may allow the
upper part of the windshield to fog up. This will have a negative effect on
the images.
● Do not scratch the camera lens, or let it get dirty.
When cleaning the inside of the windshield, be careful not to get any glass
cleaner, etc., on the lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
For lens repair, contact your Toyota dealer.

● Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen.
Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
● To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
● Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accu-
mulated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.

Fogging up of the windows
●The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will dehumidify the air from the outlets and defog the wind-
shield effectively.
● If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
● The windows may fog up if the recirculated air mode is used.
■ Windshield fog detection function
When automatic mode is set, the humidity sensor ( →P. 266) detects fog on
the windshield and controls the air conditioning system to prevent fog.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads such as tunnels or in heavy traffic, set the out-
side/recirculated air mode button to recirculated air mode. This is effective in
preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling oper-
ation, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior
effectively.
● Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the
temperature setting or the inside temperature.
■ Operation of the air conditioni ng system in ECO HEAT/COOL mode
● In ECO HEAT/COOL mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as fol-
lows to prioritize fuel efficiency:
• Fluid (heating) heater and compressor operation controlled to restrict
heating/cooling capacity
• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
● To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations:
• Adjust the temperature settings and fan speed
• Touch while in , and is set
• Touch while in , and ECO HEAT/COOL mode is canceled
■ Operation of the air conditio ning system in Eco drive mode
When ECO MODE switch is pressed, oper ations switch over to ECO HEAT/
COOL mode. ( →P. 183)
■ When the outside temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air condition-
ing system is on
● In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condition-
ing system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This may also
reduce fuel consumption.
● Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the power switch
is turned to ON mode.
● It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing .

● Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, for example after
driving for long distance in the hot weather.
● Wash detergent from the wheels immediately after use.
■ Bumpers
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
■ Front side windows water-repellent coating
●The following precautions can extend the effectiveness of the water-repel-
lent coating.
• Remove any dirt, etc., from the front side windows regularly.
• Do not allow dirt and dust to accumulate on the windows for a long
period.
Clean the windows with a soft, damp cloth as soon as possible.

• Do not use any metallic objects to remove condensation build up.
● When the water-repellent performance has become insufficient, the coating
can be repaired. Contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Restoration work for rain clearing effect of the rain clearing mirror
The rain clearing effect on the mirror surface will gradually recover after expo-
sure to sunlight ( →P. 152). However, if you want to restore the effect immedi-
ately, conduct the following procedures:
Apply water to the mirror surface to wash the dirt away from it.
