Driving
■The windshield wiper and washer can be operated when
The engine switch is in ON.
■If no windshield washer fluid
sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not
blocked if there is washer fluid in the
windshield washer fluid reservoir.
WA R N I N G
■Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer
fluid until the windshield becomes warm. The fluid may freeze on the
windshield and cause low visibility.
This may lead to an accident, result- ing in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When the washer fluid tank is
empty
Do not operate the switch continually
as the washer fluid pump may over-
heat.
■When a nozzle becomes blocked
In this case, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.
1684-5. EyeSight
NOTICE
●Under the conditions listed below, it
will become more difficult for the
system to detect the vehicle in front, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians
and obstacles on the road, and lane
markers. Also, EyeSight may tem- porarily stop operating. However,
the temporary stop will be canceled
once these conditions have
improved and the vehicle is driven for a short period of time.
• Bad weather (for example heavy
rain, a blizzard or thick fog). In par- ticular, the system is more likely to
temporarily stop operating when
there is an oil film adhering to the windshield, a glass coating has
been applied, or poorly performing
wipers are used.
• Strong light is coming from the front
(sunlight or headlight beams of oncoming traffic, etc.).
• The windshield washer is in use.
• Raindrops, water drops, or dirt on
the windshield are not wiped off suf- ficiently.
• The windshield has become fogged, scratched or smeared, or
snow, dirt ,dust or frost has adhered
to it, or it is otherwise affected. These will reduce the stereo cam-
era’s field of view. Also, light is
reflecting off the dirt, etc.
• The vehicle is tilted at an extreme
angle due to loaded cargo or other factors.
• Visibility is poor due to sand, smoke or water vapor blowing in the wind,
or the front vision is obscured due
to water splashes, snow, dirt or dust stir up generated by the vehicle in
front or oncoming traffic.
• The stereo camera’s field of view is
obstructed.
• Through the entrance or exit of a tunnel
• The rear aspect of the vehicle in front is low, small or irregular (for
example a low bed trailer, etc.).
• The obstacle is a fence, a wall or a
shutter, etc. with a uniform pattern
(a striped pattern, brick, etc.) or with no pattern in front.
• The obstacle is a wall or door made of glass or a mirror in front.
• Driving at night or in a tunnel when there is a vehicle in front that does
not have its taillights on
• Driving through a banner or flag,
low branches on a tree or thick/tall
vegetation
• On steep uphill or downhill grades
• The stereo camera is obstructed by
a hand, etc. (If even one of the
lenses is obstructed, the system does not operate properly.)
• It is completely dark and no objects are detected.
• The area around the vehicle has a uniform color (such as when com-
pletely covered in snow, etc.).
• Accurate detection is not possible
due to reflections in the windshield.
●Under the conditions listed below,
EyeSight may temporarily stop
operating. If this occurs, EyeSight will resume operating when the
conditions improve.
• The temperature inside the vehicle
is high, such as after the vehicle was left in bright sunshine, or the
temperature inside the vehicle is
low, such as after the vehicle was left in an extremely cold environ-
ment.
• Immediately after the engine starts
2846-1. Maintenance and care
NOTICE
■Protective film for side sill plates
(if equipped)
Make sure to remove the protective film. Failure to do so may cause rust,
depending on conditions.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic
substances or scrub with a hard
brush. This may damage the sur- faces of the lights.
●Do not apply wax to the surfaces of the lights.
Wax may cause damage to the
lenses.
■To prevent damage to the wind-
shield wiper arms
When lifting the wiper arms away
from the windshield, pull the driver
side wiper arm upward first, and repeat for the passenger side. When
returning the wipers to their original
position, do so from the passenger side first.
■When using a high pressure car wash
●When washing the vehicle, do not
spray the camera or its surrounding area directly with a high pressure
washer. Shock applied from high
pressure water may cause the device to not operate normally.
●Do not bring the nozzle tip close to boots (rubber or resin manufac-
tured cover), connectors or the fol-
lowing parts. The parts may be damaged if they come into contact
with high-pressure water.
• Traction related parts
• Suspension parts
• Steering parts
• Brake parts
●Keep the cleaning nozzle at least 30 cm (11.9 in.) away from the vehi-
cle body. Otherwise resin section,
such as moldings and bumpers, may be deformed and damaged.
Also, do not continuously hold the
nozzle in the same place.
●Do not spray the lower part of the
windshield continuously.
If water enters the air conditioning
system intake located near the lower
part of the windshield, the air condi- tioning system may not operate cor-
rectly.
●Do not wash the underside of the
vehicle using a high pressure car
washer.

Hood
Opening the hood
WA R N I N G
■Pre-driving check
Check that the hood is fully closed
and locked.
If the hood is not locked properly, it
may open while the vehicle is in
motion and cause an accident, which may result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When opening the hood
●Do not lift up or operate the wipers. Doing so may cause the hood and
wipers to contact, scratching the
hood.
●Use caution when opening the
hood in windy weather as it may close suddenly in strong wind.
●Do not attach any accessories other than genuine Toyota products
to the hood. Such additional weight
on the hood may cause it to be too heavy to be supported by the sup-
porting rod when opened.
■When closing the hood
Do not apply exce ssive weight or
force when closing the hood as doing
so may result in damage.
