For safety and security
WARNING
●If the Pop Up Hood has oper-
ated, have it replaced by your
Toyota dealer. If the Pop Up
Hood has operated, stop the
vehicle in a safe place and con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
●Do not touch the lifters immedi-
ately after the Pop Up Hood has
operated, as the lifters may be
hot and burn you.
NOTICE
■Pop Up Hood precautions
●Make sure to close the hood
before driving, as the system
may not operate properly if the
hood is not fully closed.
●Make sure that all 4 tires are of
the specified size and inflated to
the specified tire pressure. If
tires of a different size are used,
the system may not operate
properly.
●If something has hit the area
around the front bumper, the
sensors may be damaged even
if the Pop Up Hood has not
operated. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
●Do not remove or repair the
parts or wiring of the Pop Up
Hood, as doing so may cause
accidental operation or prevent
the system from operating prop-
erly. If repair or replacement is
necessary, contact your Toyota
dealer.
●Do not remove such compo-
nents as the front bumper, hood
or suspension, or replace them
with non-genuine parts, as
doing so may prevent the sys-
tem from operating properly.
●Do not install anything to the
front bumper or hood, as doing
so may prevent the sensors
from detecting an impact cor-
rectly and prevent the system
from operating properly.
●Do not close the hood with force
or apply load to the lifters, as
doing so may damage the lifters
and prevent the system from
operating properly.
●Do not modify the suspension,
as changes made to the vehicle
height may prevent the system
from operating properly.

Owners Manual_USA_M62084_en
Remove dirt and dust using a
vacuum cleaner. Wipe dirty
surfaces with a cloth damp-
ened with lukewarm water.
If dirt cannot be removed,
wipe it off with a soft cloth
dampened with neutral deter-
gent diluted to approximately
1%.
Wring out any excess water
from the cloth and thoroughly
wipe off remaining traces of
detergent and water.
■Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foam-
ing-type cleaners available. Use a
sponge or brush to apply the foam.
Rub in overlapping circles. Do not
use water. Wipe dirty surfaces and
let them dry. Excellent results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as
dry as possible.
■Handling the seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm
water using a cloth or sponge. Also
check the belts periodically for
excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
■When cleaning the carpeted
portions of the glove box, con-
sole box, etc.
If a strong adhesive tape is used, there is a possibility that the surface
of the carpet could be damaged.
Cleaning and protect-
ing the vehicle interior

WARNING
■Water in the vehicle
●Do not splash or spill liquid in
the vehicle, such as on the floor,
in the traction ba
ttery air vents,
and in the trunk. ( P. 8 8 )
