Maintenance and Care
■Vinyl
Remove dust and loose dirt from vinyl with a whisk broom or vac-
uum cleaner. Clean vinyl with a leather-and-vinyl cleaner.
■Leather (if equipped)
Remove dust and sand first using a vacuum cleaner or other
means, then wipe dirt off using a soft cloth with a leather cle aner or
a soft cloth soaked in mild soap. Wipe off the remaining cleane r or
soap using a cloth s oaked in clean water and wrung out well.
Remove moisture with a dry, soft cloth and allow the leather to fur-
ther dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area. If the leather gets wet
such as from rain, also remove moisture and dry it as soon as p os-
sible.
■Fabric
Remove dust and loose dirt from fabric with a whisk broom or va c-
uum cleaner. Clean it with a mild soap solution good for uphols tery
and carpets. Remove fresh spots immediately with a fabric spot
cleaner.
To keep the fabric looking clean and fresh, take care of it. Ot her-
wise its color will be affected , it can be stained easily, and its fire-
resistance may be reduced.
■Panel
When the interior panels need to be cleaned, use soft material such
as a soft cloth soaked in clean water and wrung out well and li ghtly
wipe off dirt from the surface. If a panel requires further cle aning,
use the following procedure.
Wipe dirt off using a soft cloth soaked in mild detergent (abou t
5% solution).
Wipe off any remaining detergent using a cloth soaked in clean
water and wrung out well.

■Leather
●Because genuine leather is a natural material, its surface is n ot uniform and
it may have natural scars, scratches, and wrinkles.
● To maintain the quality for as long as possible, periodical maintenance,
about twice a year, is recommended.
NOTICE
■Leather
● Sand and dust on the seat surface may damage the overcoat of the genu-
ine leather surfaces and accelerate wear.
● Greasy soiling on genuine leather may cause molding and stains.
● Rubbing hard with a stiff brush or cloth may cause damage.
● Do not wipe the leather using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or orga nic solvents
such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause discolor-
ation or stains.
● If the seats get wet, promptly remove moisture with a dry cloth. Remaining
moisture on the surface may cause deterioration such as hardeni ng and
shrinkage.
● Exposure to direct sunlight for long periods may cause deterior ation and
shrinkage. When parking the car under direct sunlight for long periods,
shade the interior using sunshades.
● Do not leave vinyl products on the seats for long periods as they may
affect the leather quality and coloring. If the cabin temperatu re becomes
hot, the vinyl may deteriorate and adhere to the genuine leathe r.
■ Fabric
Use only recommended cleaners and procedures. Others may affect
appearance and fire-resistance.
■ Panel
● Do not wipe leather parts using alcohol, chlorine bleach, or or ganic sol-
vents such as thinner, benzene, or gasoline. Otherwise, it may cause dis-
coloration or stains.
● Scratches or nicks on the panels and metallic trim resulting from the use of
a hard brush or cloth may not be repairable.
● Be particularly careful when cleaning high lustre panels and me tallic trim
as they can be easily scratched.

recommend that you NOT take your Toyota outside the United Stat es/
Canada.

Tire Maintenance
Improper or inadequate vehicle maintenance can cause tires to w ear
abnormally. Here are some important maintenance points:
Inspect all tire pressure monthly (including the spare) when th e tires
are cold. Maintain recommended pressures for the best ride, top han-
dling, and minimum tire wear. Use the pressures specified on th e
vehicle tire information placard or tire label for optimum service.
To equalize tire wear and extend
tire life, Toyota recommends that
tire rotation is carried out at the
same interval as tire inspection.
Inspect the tires for uneven w ear and damage. Abnormal wear is usu-
ally caused by one or a combination of the following: • Incorrect tire pressure
• Improper wheel alignment
• Out-of-balance wheel
• Severe braking
After rotation, inflate all tire pressures to specification ( P. 553) and
inspect the lug nu ts for tightness.

Do not include

NOTICE
Rotate unidirectional tires and radial tires that have an asymm etrical
tread pattern or studs only from front to rear, not from side t o side. Tire
performance will be weak ened if rotated from side to side.
