WARNING
■ Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer fluid until the windshield becomes
warm. The fluid may freeze on the windshield and cause low visibility. This
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ When the windshield is dry
Do not use the wipers, as they may damage the windshield.
■ When the washer fluid tank is empty
Do not operate the switch continually as the washer fluid pump may over-
heat.
■ When a nozzle becomes blocked
In this case, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.

Driving
HILUX_OM_OM0K375E_(EE)
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 cap, touch an
unpainted metal surface to discharge any stat ic electricity. It is important to
discharge static electricity before re fueling because sparks resulting from
static electricity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.
● Type A (P. 306) only: 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.
● Do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their
body to come close to an open fuel tank.
● Do not inhale vaporized fuel.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.
● Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
● Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically
charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition
hazard.
■ When refueling
Observe the following precautions to pr event fuel overflowing from the fuel
tank:
● Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.
● Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off.
● Do not top off the fuel tank.

● The sign is only visible to the camera sensor for a short amount of time.
● The driving scene (turning, lane change, etc.) is judged incorrectly.
● Even if it is a sign not appropriate for the currently traveled lane, such a sign
exists directly after a freeway branches, or in an adjacent lane just before
merging.
● Stickers are attached to the rear of the preceding vehicle.
● A sign resembling a system compatible sign is recognized.
● The vehicle is driven in a country with a different direction of traffic.
● Side road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if positioned in sight
of the camera sensor) while the vehicle is traveling on the main road.
● Roundabout exit road speed signs may be detected and displayed (if posi-
tioned in sight of the camera sensor) while traveling on a roundabout.
● The speed information displayed on the meter and that displayed on the
navigation system (if equipped) may be different due to the multimedia sys-
tem using map data.
■ When driving vehicle in country with different speed unit
Since RSA recognizes signs based on the set unit of the meter, it is neces-
sary to change the set unit of the meter. Adjust the set unit of the meter to the
speed unit of signs in the current location. ( P. 684)
■ Turning the system on/off
Use the meter control switches to select while the vehicle is stopped and
press , and select and press . ( P. 141)
■ Speed limit sign display
If the engine switch was last turned to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without
smart entry & start system) or off (vehicles with smart entry & start system)
while a speed limit sign was displayed on the multi-information display, the
same sign displays again when the engine switch is turned to the “ON” posi-
tion (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON mode
(vehicles with smart entry & start system).
■ Customization
Setting (e.g. speeding warning threshold) can be changed.
