■Setting items
●“Vehicle Settings” and “Meter Settings” setting items are not s electable
during driving and cannot be operated.
Also, the settings screen is temporarily canceled in the follow ing situations.
• A warning message is displayed.
• The vehicle starts off.
● Settings for functions not equipped to the vehicle are not disp layed.
● When a function is turned off, the related settings for that fu nction are not
selectable.
■ Pop-up display
In some situations, such as when a switch operation is performe d, a pop-up
display will be temporarily displayed on the multi-information display.
■ When disconnecting and reco nnecting battery terminals
The drive information will be reset.
■ Trip Summary display
When the engine switch is turned off, each of the following wil l be displayed
on the multi-information display, and will extinguish after approximately
30 seconds.
● Distance traveled
● Average fuel economy
● Driving range
■ Tire inflation pressure
●It may take a few minutes to display the tire inflation pressur e after the
engine switch is turned to the “ON” position. It may also take a few minutes
to display the tire inflation pressure after inflation pressure has been
adjusted.
● “---” may be displayed if the tire position information cannot be determined
due to unfavorable radio wave conditions.
● Tire inflation pressure changes with temperature. The displayed values may
also be different from the values measured using a tire pressur e gauge.
■ Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phen omenon is
characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and there is no prob lem continuing to
use the display.

Interior features
SEQUOIA_OM_USA_OM0C013U_19MY
■Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperatur e setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow
immediately after is pressed.
■ 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.
■ Outside/recirculated air mode
●When driving on dusty roads, in tunnels, or in heavy traffic, s et the outside/
recirculated air mode to the recirculated air mode. This is eff ective in pre-
venting outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling opera-
tion, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehi cle interior
effectively.
● Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch dependin g on the
temperature setting, outside temperature, pressure, engine cool ant tem-
perature or inside temperature.
■ When the outside temperature exceeds 75 °F (24 °C) and the air condi-
tioning 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 en gine switch
is turned to the “ON” position.
● It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pre ssing
.
■When the outside temperature f alls to nearly 32 °F (0 °C)
The dehumidification function may not operate even when is pre ssed.

High pressure car washes
●Do not allow the nozzles of the car wash to come within close p roximity of
the windows.
● Before using the car wash, check that the fuel filler door on your vehicle is
closed properly.
■ Aluminum wheels
●Remove any dirt immediately by using a neutral detergent.
● Wash detergent off with water immediately after use.
● To protect the paint from damage, make sure to observe the following pre-
cautions.
• Do not use acidic, alkaline or abrasive detergent
• Do not use hard brushes
• Do not use detergent on the wheels when they are hot, such as after driv-
ing or parking in hot weather
■ Bumpers and side moldings
Do not scrub with abrasive cleaners.
WARNING
■When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of the engine compartment. Doing so may
cause the electrical components, etc., to catch fire.
■ Precautions regarding the exhaust pipe
Exhaust gases cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be careful not to touch the pipe unti l it has
cooled sufficiently, as touching hot exhaust pipe can cause burns.
■ Precaution regarding the Blind Spot Monitor
If the paint of the rear bumper is chipped or scratched, the system may mal-
function. If this occurs, consult your Toyota dealer.

Tire valve
Tire pressure gauge
Remove the tire valve cap.
Press the tip of the tire pressure gauge onto the tire valve.
Read the pressure using the gauge gradations.
If the tire inflation pressure is not at the recommended level, adjust
the pressure.
If you add too much air, press the center of the valve to defla te.
After completing the tire inflation pressure measurement and
adjustment, apply soapy water to the valve and check for leakage.
Put the tire valve cap back on.
■Tire inflation pressure check interval
You should check tire inflation p ressure every two weeks, or at least once
a month.
Do not forget to check the spare.
■Effects of incorrect tire inflation pressure
Driving with incorrec t tire inflation pressure may result in th e following:
●Reduced fuel economy
●Reduced driving comfort and poor handling
●Reduced tire life due to wear
●Reduced safety
●Damage to the drive train
If a tire needs frequent inflating , have it checked by your Toyota dealer.
