Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WA R N I N G
Exhaust gases include harmful car-
bon monoxide (CO), which is color-
less and odorless. Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust
gases enter the vehicle and may lead to an accident caused by
light-headedness, or may lead to
death or a serious health hazard.
■Important points while driving
●Keep the trunk lid closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in the
vehicle even when the trunk lid is closed, open the windows and have
the vehicle inspected at any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer as soon as possible.
■When parking
●If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-
lated area or a closed area, such as a garage, stop the engine.
●Do not leave the vehicle with the engine on for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be
avoided, park the vehicle in an open space and ensure that
exhaust fumes do not enter the
vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running in
an area with snow build-up, or where it is snowing. If snowbanks
build up around the vehicle while
the engine is running, exhaust gases may collect and enter the
vehicle.

■Cautions during setting up the display
As the engine needs to be running
during setting up the display, ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place
with adequate ventilation. In a closed
area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon mon-
oxide (CO) may colle ct and enter the
vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
■While setting up the display
To prevent battery discharge, ensure that the engine is running while set-
ting up the display features.
1063-2. Opening, closing and locking the doors and trunk
Trunk
The trunk can be opened using
the trunk opener switch, entry
function or wireless remote
control.
WA R N I N G
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■Before driving
●Make sure that the trunk lid is closed before driving. If not fully
closed, while driving, it may open
unexpectedly, hit near-by objects, or luggage may fall out, possibly
leading to an accident.
Also, exhaust gasses may enter the vehicle, possibly leading to death or
a serious health hazard.
●Do not allow children to play in the
trunk.
If a child is accidentally locked in the trunk, they could suffer from
heat exhaustion, suffocation or
other injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open or
close the trunk lid. Doing so may cause the trunk lid to
open unexpectedly, or cause the
child’s hands, head, or neck to be caught by the closing trunk lid.
■Important points while driving
Never let anyone sit in the trunk. In
the event of sudden braking or a colli-
sion, they are susceptible to death or serious injury.
■Using the trunk
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of
the body to be caught, resulting in serious injury.
●Remove any heavy loads, such as snow and ice, from the trunk lid
before opening it. Failure to do so
may cause the trunk lid to suddenly shut again after it is opened.
●Be careful not to come into contact with the exhaust gasses when
opening or closing the trunk. If the
engine is running, there is a risk of being burned by the exhaust
gasses.
●When opening or closing the trunk
lid, thoroughly check to make sure
the surrounding area is safe.
●If anyone is in the vicinity, make
sure they are safe and let them know that the trunk is about to open
or close.
●Use caution when opening or clos-
ing the trunk lid in windy weather as
it may move abruptly in strong wind.
●The trunk lid may suddenly shut if it
is not opened fully. It is more diffi- cult to open or close the trunk lid on
an incline than on a level surface,
so beware of the trunk lid unexpect- edly opening or closing by itself.
Make sure that the trunk lid is fully
open and secure before using the trunk.

WA R N I N G
●Do not leave a door or window
open if the curved glass is coated
with a metallized film such as a sil- ver-colored one. Reflected sunlight
may cause the glass to act as a
lens, causing a fire.
●Always apply the parking brake,
shift the shift lever to P (vehicles
with an automatic transmission), stop the engine and lock the vehi-
cle.
Do not leave the vehicle unat- tended while the engine is running.
If the vehicle is parked with the shift
lever in P but the parking brake is not set, the vehicl e may start to
move, possibly leading to an acci-
dent.
●Do not touch the exhaust pipes
while the engine is running or immediately after turning the engine
off.
Doing so may cause burns.
■When taking a nap in the vehicle
Always turn the engine off. Otherwise, if you accidentally move the shift lever
or depress the accelerator pedal, this
could cause an accident or fire due to engine overheating. Additionally, if the
vehicle is parked in a poorly ventilated
area, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle, leading to death or
a serious health hazard.
■When braking
●When the brakes are wet, drive
more cautiously. Braking distance increases when
the brakes are wet, and this may
cause one side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other
side. Also, the parking brake may
not securely hold the vehicle.
●If the brake booster device does not operate, do not follow other vehi-
cles closely and avoid hills or sharp
turns that require braking. In this case, braking is still possible,
but the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual. Also, the braking distance will
increase. Have your brakes fixed
immediately.
●Do not pump the brake pedal if the
engine stalls. Each push on the brake pedal uses
up the reserve for the
power-assisted brakes.
●The brake system consists of 2 indi-
vidual hydraulic systems; if one of the systems fails, the other will still
operate. In this case, the brake
pedal should be depressed more firmly than usual and the braking
distance will increase. Have your
brakes fixed immediately.
■If the vehicle becomes stuck
Do not spin the wheels excessively when any of the tires is up in the air,
or the vehicle is stuck in sand, mud,
etc. This may damage the driveline components or propel the vehicle for-
ward or backward, causing an acci-
dent.
NOTICE
■Pre-driving check
Trapping small animals in the cooling
fan and belts of the engine may result
in a malfunction. Check that no small animal enters the engine compart-
ment and under the vehicle before
starting the engine.

■When refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions
while refueling the vehicle. Failure to
do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not handle fuel indoors.
●After exiting the vehicle and before
opening the fuel door, touch an unpainted metal surface to dis-
charge any static electricity. It is
important to discharge static elec- tricity before refueling because
sparks resulting from static electric-
ity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.
●Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to
remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be
heard before fully removing the cap. In hot weather, pressurized
fuel may spray out the filler neck
and cause injury.
●Do not allow anyone that has not
discharged static electricity from their body to come close to an open
fuel tank.
●Do not allow anyone to approach
the area of the vehicle near the fuel
filler pipe while refueling is in pro- gress.
●Do not inhale vaporized fuel.Fuel contains substances that are
harmful if inhaled.
●Do not smoke while refueling the
vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
●Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is stati-
cally charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible igni-
tion hazard.
■When refueling
Observe the following precautions to
prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel tank:
●Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.
●Stop filling the tank after the fuel
nozzle automatically clicks off.
●Do not top off the fuel tank.

●Turn the cap to the right until it
clicks to ensure that it is fully tight-
ened. If the cap is not securely tightened, fuel spillage could occur
in the event of an accident, creating
a fire hazard.
NOTICE
■Refueling
●Do not spill fuel during refueling.
Doing so may damage the vehicle,
such as causing the emission con- trol system to ope rate abnormally
or damaging fuel system compo-
nents or the vehicle’s painted sur- face.
●Never add any cleaning agents to the fuel tank. The addition of a
cleaning agent may cause damage
to the fuel system.
●Immediately put fuel in the tank
whenever the low fuel warning light
illuminates. Engine misfires as a result of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.

3026-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Replace the tires if the treadwear indi-
cators are showing on a tire.
■When to replace your vehicle’s
tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●The treadwear indicators are showing on a tire.
●You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to expose
the fabric, and bulges indicating inter-
nal damage
●A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot
be properly repaired due to the size or location of a cut or other damage
If you are not sure, consult with any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped pro-
fessional.
■Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if
it has seldom or never been used or
damage is not obvious.
■Low profile tires
Generally, low profile tires will wear
more rapidly and tire grip performance
will be reduced on snowy and/or icy roads when compared to standard tires.
Be sure to use snow tires or tire chains
on snowy and/or icy roads and drive
carefully at a speed appropriate for road and weather conditions.
■If the tread on snow tires wears
down below 4 mm (0.16 in.)
The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.
WA R N I N G
■When inspecting or replacing
tires
Observe the following precautions to prevent accidents.
Failure to do so may cause damage
to parts of the drive train as well as dangerous handling characteristics,
which may lead to an accident result-
ing in death or serious injury.
●Make sure to insta ll 4 tires that are
of the specified size, and that all 4
tires are the same size, same maker, same brand and tread pat-
tern.
●Do not use tire sizes other than
those recommended by Toyota.
●Only use radial tires.
●Do not mix summer, all season and snow tires.
●Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.
Do not use tires if you do not know
how they were used previously.
NOTICE
■Low profile tires
Low profile tires may cause greater
damage than usual to the tire wheel when sustaining impact from the road
surface. Therefore, pay attention to
the following:
●Be sure to use proper tire inflation
pressure. If tires are under-inflated, they may be damaged more
severely.
●Avoid potholes, uneven pavement,
curbs and other road hazards. Fail-
ure to do so may lead to severe tire and wheel damage.
