Driving
WARNING
●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, water
spray from road sprinklers or
snow clearing sprinklers on the
road, or dust stir up generated
by the vehicle in front or oncom-
ing traffic.
• Detection of the vehicle in front may be lost, or water or other
substances may be incorrectly
detected instead, making cor-
rect control impossible.
●In adverse weather, such as
heavy snow or snowstorms
●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 camera’s field of view.
Also, light is reflecting off the
dirt, etc.
●Water droplets from rain or the
window washer, or dirt has not
been fully wiped off the wind-
shield.
• It may not be possible to detect the vehicle in front, making cor-
rect control impossible.
●The stereo camer a’s field of
view is obstructed.
The stereo camera may have diffi-
culty detecting the following
objects or conditions. Operate the
brake pedal and take other
actions as necessary.
●Vehicles at significantly different
speeds (vehicles driving slowly,
stopped or oncoming vehicles,
etc.)
●Vehicles cutting into your lane
●Motorcycles, bicycles, pedestri-
ans and animals, etc.
●Light is poor in the evening or
early morning.
●At night or in a tunnel without
the headlights on
●At night or in a tunnel when
there is a vehicle in front that
does not have its tail lights on
●Strong light is coming from the
front (sunlight or headlight high
beams, etc.).

tem is turned off, Pre-Collision
Throttle Management is also
turned off. ( P.219)
WARNING
Do not rely excessively on
Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment. Pre-Collisi on Throttle Man-
agement is not designed to help
you avoid collisions in all situa-
tions. Always check the shift lever
and pedal positions as well as the
surrounding environment before
starting and operating the vehicle.
Relying only on Pre-Collision
Throttle Management could result
in an accident.
●Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment is not designed to main-
tain the vehicle in a stopped
condition.
●Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment will not reduce accelera-
tion under all conditions. It is
also not designed to prevent
collisions.
●Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment will operate when an
obstacle is detected in front.
However, this function will not
reduce accelera tion in cases
where no obstacle is detected
(for example when approaching
a cliff, etc.).
●Do not intentionally depress the
accelerator pedal excessively
when there are obstacles
nearby. If the driv er relies only
on Pre-Collision Throttle Man-
agement to control acceleration,
collisions may occur.
●If your vehicle is trapped on a
railroad crossing and you are
trying to escape by driving
through the crossing gate, the
stereo camera may recognize
the crossing gate as an obstacle
and Pre-Collision Throttle Man-
agement system may activate.
In this case, rem ain calm and
either continue to depress the
accelerator pedal or turn off the
Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment system. (
P.219)
Pre-Collision Throttle Manage-
ment may not activate depending
on the following conditions:
●The distance between your
vehicle and the obstacle, speed
difference, and horizontal offset
●Recognition status of the stereo
camera
In particular, the function may not
activate in the following cases:
• Bad weather (for example heavy rain, a blizzard or thick
fog)
• Visibility is poor due to sand or
smoke in the air.
• Light is poor in the evening, early morning, or at night.
• In a dark area (indoor parking area, etc.)
• There is an obstacle outside the area illuminated by the head-
lights.
• Strong light is coming from the front (for example sunlight at
sunrise or sunset headlight
beams, etc.).

improved. If the sys-
tem does not restart,
even after the condi-
tions have improved
and a period of time
has elapsed, contact
your Toyota dealer for
an inspection.

with lower body height such as a
trailer with no cargo and sports
cars)
• Vehicles that are not approaching
your vehicle even though they are
in the detection area (either on a
neighboring lane to the rear or
beside your vehicle when revers-
ing) (The system determines the
presence of approaching vehicles
based on data detected by the
radar sensors.)
• Vehicles traveling at significantly
different speeds
• Vehicles driving in parallel at almost the same speed as your
vehicle for a prolonged time
• Oncoming vehicles
• Vehicles in a lane beyond the neighboring lane

2926-1. Maintenance and care
Remove dirt and dust using a
vacuum cleaner.
Wipe off any excess dirt and
dust with a soft cloth damp-
ened with diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of
approximately 5% neutral wool
detergent.
Wring out any excess water
from the cloth and thoroughly
wipe off all remaining traces
NOTICE
●Do not use a chemical agent
containing silicone
(highly-polymerized silicon com-
pound) when cleaning any of
the electrical appliances such
as the air conditioning, all
switches and their surrounding
areas.
If silicon (highly-polymerized sil-
icon compound) contacts these
components, it may cause the
electrical appliances to malfunc-
tion.
■Preventing damage to leather
surfaces
Observe the following precautions
to avoid damage to and deteriora-
tion of leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from
leather surfaces immediately.
●Do not expose the vehicle to
direct sunlight for extended peri-
ods of time. Park the vehicle in
the shade, especially during
summer.
●Do not place items made of
vinyl, plastic, or containing wax
on the upholstery, as they may
stick to the leather surface if the
vehicle interior heats up signifi-
cantly.
■Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with
water.
Vehicle systems such as the
audio system may be damaged if
water comes into contact with
electrical components such as the
audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may
also cause the body to rust.
■When cleaning the inside of
the windshield
Do not allow glass cleaner to con-
tact the lens. Also, do not touch
the lens. (
P.174)
■Cleaning the inside of the rear
window
●Do not use glass cleaner to
clean the rear window, as this
may cause damage to the rear
window defogger heater wires.
Use a cloth dampened with
lukewarm water to gently wipe
the window clean. Wipe the win-
dow in strokes running parallel
to the heater wires.
●Be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires.
■When cleaning the instrument
panel
When small grains of sand and so
forth have gotten into instrument
panel’s surface and cannot be
wiped away using a cloth, use a
clay bar without adding water.
Forcibly trying to wipe the surface
clean with a brush or sponge may
scratch the surface or fragments
of the cloth may be left in the sur-
face.
