WARNING
■ When refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle. Failure to do
so may result in death or serious injury.
● After exiting the vehicle and before opening the fuel door, touch an
unpainted metal surface to discharge any static electricity. It is important to
discharge static electricity before refueling because sparks resulting from
static electricity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.
● Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot
weather, pressurized fuel may spray out the filler neck and cause injury.

WARNING
■Before using the LDA system
Do not rely solely on the LDA system. The LDA system does not drive the
vehicle automatically, nor does it reduce the amount of care you need to
take. As such, the driver must always assume full responsibility for under-
standing his/her surroundings, for operat ing the steering wheel to correct
the driving line, and for driving safely.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an accident.
■ To avoid operating the LDA by mistake
Switch the LDA system off using the LDA switch when not in use.
NOTICE
■ To prevent damage to or incorrect operation of the LDA system
● Do not modify the headlights or attach stickers to the surface of the lights.
● Do not modify the suspension. If your suspension needs repairs, contact
any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.
● Do not install or place anything on the hood or the grille. Also, do not install
a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar etc.).

● High beam may be turned on or off when unexpected by the driver.
● In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the surrounding brightness levels, and may flash or expose nearby pedestrians to the high beam. Therefore, you shoul d consider turning the high beams on or off manually rather than relying on the Automatic High Beam system.
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.) • The windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.• The windshield is cracked or damaged.• The front sensor is deformed or dirty. • The front sensor temperature is extremely high. • Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lightsor fog lights.• Vehicles ahead have headlights or tail lights that are either switched off,dirty, are changing color, or are not aimed properly.• When driving through an area of intermittently changing brightness anddarkness. • When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-pavedroads, gravel tracks, etc.).• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a windingroad.• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mirror. • The back of a vehicle ahead is highly reflective, such as a container on atruck.• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.• The vehicle is listing or titling, due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed, etc.• The driver believes that the high beam may be causing problems or dis- tress to other drivers or pedestrians nearby.
■ If the Automatic High Beam indicator comes on in yellow
It may indicate a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
WARNING
■ Limitations of the Automatic High Beam
Do not rely on the Automatic High Beam. Always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings and turning high beam on or off manually if nec-
essary.
NOTICE
■ Notes when using the Automatic High Beam system
Observe the following to ensure that the Automatic High Beam functions
correctly.
