Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that drives on the other side of the road, the headlamps must be adjusted to avoid dazzling on-coming drivers.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
In good or rainy weather, by both day and night, use of the front foglamps and the rear foglamps are prohibited. In these situations, the power of their beams may dazzle other drivers. They should only be used in fog or falling snow.In these weather conditions, it is your responsibility to switch on the foglamps and dipped headlamps manually as the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light.Switch off the front and rear foglamps when they are no longer necessary.
WARNI NG
Never look too closely at the luminous beam of LED headlamps: risk of serious eye injury.
Direction indicators

Three flashes
► Press briefly upwards or downwards, without going beyond the point of resistance; the direction indicators will flash 3 times.
Automatic headlamp
illumination
When a low level of ambient light is detected by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are switched on automatically, without any action on the part of the driver. They can also come on if rain is detected, at the same time as the automatic rain sensitive wipers.As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers are switched off, the lamps are switched off automatically.

Automatic headlamp
dipping
This system automatically changes between dipped and main beam headlamps according to the brightness and driving conditions, using a camera located at the top of the windscreen.
WARNI NG
This system is a driving aid.The driver remains responsible for the vehicle's lighting, its correct use for the prevailing conditions of light, visibility and traffic, and for observation of driving and vehicle regulations.
NOTIC E
The system will be operational as soon as you exceed 25 km/h (16 mph).If the speed drops below 15 km/h (9 mph), the system no longer operates.


Activation/Deactivation
Activation and deactivation are done via the vehicle configuration menu.When deactivated, the lighting system changes to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode.The state of the system stays in the memory when switching off the ignition.
Operation
If the ambient light level is sufficient and/or the traffic conditions do not allow the main beam headlamps to be lit:– The dipped beam headlamps remain lit. These indicator lamps come on on the instrument panel.If the ambient light level is very low and traffic conditions permit:– The main beam headlamps come on automatically. These

70
indicator lamps come on on the instrument panel.The function is deactivated if the fog lamps are switched on or the system detects dense fog.When the fog lamps are switched off or the vehicle leaves the area of dense fog, the function is automatically reactivated.This indicator lamp goes out when the function is deactivated.
Pause
If the situation requires a change of headlamp beam, the driver can take over at any time.► A "headlamp flash" pauses the function and the system changes to "automatic illumination of headlamps" mode:– if the "AUTO" and "Dipped beam" indicator lamps were on, the system changes to main beam,– if the "AUTO" and "Main beam" indicator lamps were on, the system changes to dipped beam.To reactivate the system, flash the headlamps
again.
NOTIC E
The system may suffer interference or not work correctly:– under conditions of poor visibility (snow, heavy rain, etc.),
– if the windscreen in front of the camera is dirty, misted or obscured (for example, by a sticker, etc.),– if the vehicle is facing highly reflective signs.When the system detects thick fog, it temporarily deactivates the function.The system is not able to detect:– road users that do not have their own lighting, such as pedestrians,– vehicles whose lighting is obscured (for example: vehicles running behind a safety barrier on a motorway),– vehicles at the top or bottom of a steep slope, on winding roads, on crossroads.
WARNI NG
Clean the windscreen regularly, particularly the area in front of the camera.The internal surface of the windscreen can also become misted around the camera. In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.Do not allow snow to accumulate on the bonnet or roof of the vehicle as this could obstruct the detection camera.

Wiper control lever
Programming
Your vehicle may also include some functions that can be activated/deactivated:– automatic windscreen wipers,– rear wiping on engaging reverse gear.
NOTIC E
In wintry conditions, remove snow, ice or frost present on the windscreen, around the wiper arms and blades and the windscreen seal, before operating the wipers.
WARNI NG
Do not operate the wipers on a dry windscreen. Under extremely hot or cold conditions, ensure that the wiper blades are not stuck to the windscreen before operating the wipers.
Manual controls
The wipers are controlled directly by the driver.
With manual wiping (intermittent)


With AUTO wiping

Windscreen wipers
► To select the wiping speed: raise or lower the lever to the desired position.Fast wiping (heavy rain)
Normal wiping (moderate rain)
Intermittent wiping (proportional to the vehicle’s speed)Off
or
Automatic wiping (press down, then release).Single wipe (pull the lever briefly towards you).
Windscreen wash
► Pull the wiper control lever towards you and hold.The screenwash and windscreen wipers operate for as long as the control lever is pulled.A final wiping cycle is performed when screenwashing ends.
NOTIC E
On vehicles fitted with automatic air conditioning, any action on the screenwash control temporarily closes the air intake, to avoid odours inside the passenger compartment.
NOTIC E
The windscreen wash jets are incorporated into the tip of each wiper arm.Screenwash fluid is sprayed along the length of the wiper blade. This improves visibility and reduces screenwash fluid consumption.In some cases, depending on the contents or colour of the fluid and on the exterior
brightness, the liquid spray may be barely noticeable.

72
WARNI NG
To avoid damaging the wiper blades, do not operate the windscreen washer if the windscreen washer reservoir is empty.Only operate the windscreen washer if there is no risk of the fluid freezing on the windscreen and hindering visibility. Always use windscreen washer fluid suitable for low temperatures during the winter period.Never top up with water.

WARNI NG
If a significant accumulation of snow or ice is present, or when using a bicycle carrier on the boot, deactivate the automatic rear wiper.
Special position of the
windscreen wipers
This maintenance position is used while cleaning or replacing the wiper blades. It can also be useful, in winter (ice, snow), to release the wiper blades from the windscreen.
NOTIC E
