Lights and bulbs are an important
aspect of driving safety.
All headlights and other lights use
LED or laser technology.
Some equipment versions have
light-emitting diodes behind a cover
as a light source. These light-emit-
ting diodes are similar to conven-
tional lasers and are classified by
legislation as Class 1 light-emitting
diodes.
In the case of a defect, the manu-
facturer of the vehicle recom-
mends having respective work
carried out by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.During cool or humid weather, the
headlight glass can mist over on
the inside. When driving with the
lights switched on, the condensa-
tion disappears after a short time.
There is no need to replace the
headlight glass.
If moisture increasingly forms, for
example if there are water droplets
in the lamp despite the headlights
being switched on, have the head-
lights checked.
The battery is maintenance-free.

Safety notes
WARNING
Concentrated laser light can cause
irritation or lasting damage to the ret-
ina of the eye. There is a danger of
injury. The manufacturer of your vehi-
cle recommends having work on the
lighting system, including bulb
replacement, performed by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
WARNING
Intense brightness can irritate or harm
the retina of the eye. There is a dan-
ger of injury. Do not look directly into
the headlights or other light sources.
Do not remove covers from LEDs.

■Safety note
■General
In a car wash, the vehicle must be
able to roll freely.
Roll or push the vehicle, see page
145.
Some car washes require you to
get out of the vehicle. It is not possi-
ble to lock the vehicle from the out-
side in selector lever position N. If an attempt is made to lock the vehi-
cle, a signal sounds.
Ensure that the remote control is
located in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state, see
page 45.
Do not rub wet headlights dry and
do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents.
Soak impurities such as insect resi-
dues with shampoo and wash off
with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do
not use an ice scraper.
After the vehicle has been washed,
briefly apply the brakes to dry them
otherwise braking effectiveness
may be temporarily reduced. The
heat generated by braking dries the
brake discs and brake pads and
protects them against corrosion.
Completely remove residues on the
windscreens to avoid affecting visi-
bility due to smearing, and to
reduce wiping noise and wiper
blade wear.
NOTICE
The vehicle can be damaged if auto-
matic washing bays or car washes
are used incorrectly. There is a dan-
ger of damage to property. Observe
the following notes:
●Textile car washes or systems
using soft brushes are preferable,
to avoid damage to the paintwork.
●Avoid washing bays or car washes
with guide rails higher than 10 cm,
4 in, to avoid damage to the body.
●Note the maximum tyre width of the
guide rail to avoid damage to tyres
and rims.
●Fold in the exterior mirrors to avoid
damaging them.
●Deactivate the wipers and the rain
sensor (if fitted) to avoid damage to
the wiper system.

matic transmission

cally engaged when standby state is
