Winter driving tips
●Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside tempera-
tures.
• Engine oil
• Engine/power control unit coolant
• Washer fluid
● Have a service technician inspect the condition of the 12-volt bat-
tery.
● Have the vehicle fitted with four snow tires or purchase a set of tire
chains for the front tires*.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and brand, and that cha ins match
the size of the tires.
*: Tire chains cannot be mounted on 18-inch tires or 19-inch tir es.
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
● Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a wiper that is frozen.
Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
● To ensure proper operation of the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
● Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accu-
mulated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis, around the
tires or on the brakes.
● Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before
driving the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a ma n-
ner appropriate to the prevailing weather conditions.
Preparation for winter
Before driving the vehicle

5565-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger
C-HR_HV_OM_Europe_OM10720E
WARNING
■To prevent the windshield from fogging up
● Do not use during cool air operation in extremely humid weather.
The difference between the temperature of the outside air and t hat of the
windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, block-
ing your vision.
■ To prevent burns
● Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.
● Vehicles with windshield wiper de-icer: Do not touch the glass at the lower
part of the windshield or to the side of the front pillars when the windshield
wiper de-icer is on.
■ nanoe™ generator (if equipped)
Do not disassemble or repair the generator because it contains high voltage
parts.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized rep airer, or any
reliable repairer if the generator needs repair.
NOTICE
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessa ry when the
hybrid system is off.
■ To prevent damage to the nanoe™ (if equipped)
Do not insert anything into the passenger’s side vent, attach a nything to it,
or use sprays around the passenger’s side vent. These things ma y cause
the generator not to work properly.
● Do not place anything on the instrument
panel which may cover the air outlets.
Otherwise, air flow may be obstructed,
preventing the windshield defoggers
from defogging.
