WARNING
■To prevent malfunction of the
radar sensors
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may lead to
a radar sensor not operating prop-
erly, possibly leading to an acci-
dent resulting in death or serious
injury.
●Keep the radar sensors and
radar sensor covers clean at all
times.
Clean the front of a radar sensor
or the front or back of a radar sen-
sor cover if it is dirty or covered
with water drople ts, snow, etc.
When cleaning the radar sensor

●Do not attach accessories,
stickers (including transparent
stickers), aluminum tape, etc. to
a radar sensor or radar sensor
cover and their surrounding
area.
●Do not subject a radar sensor or
its surrounding area to impact. If
a radar sensor, the front grille,
or front bumper has been sub-
jected to a impact, have the
vehicle inspected by your Toy-
ota dealer.
●Do not disassemble the radar
sensors.
●Do not modify or paint the radar
sensors or radar sensor cover,
or replace them with anything
other than Toyota genuine parts.
●In the following situations, recal-
ibration of the radar sensors will
be necessary. For details, con-
tact by your Toyota dealer.
• When a radar sensor is removed and installed, or
replaced
• When the front bumper or the front grille has been replaced
■Radar sensor cover with a
heater
When the system determines that
snow may pile up over the radar
sensor cover, the heater will oper-
ate automatically. If the area
around the radar sensor cover is
to be touched, such as during
cleaning, make sure that the radar
sensor cover is cool enough to
prevent burns.
■To prevent malfunction of the
front camera
Observe the following precau-
tions. Failure to do so may lead to
the front camera not operating
properly, possibly leading to an
accident resulting in death or seri-
ous injury.

●When driving near a TV tower,
broadcasting station, electric
power plant, radar equipped vehi-
cles, etc., or other location where
strong radio waves or electrical
noise may be present
●When a wiper blade is blocking
the front camera
●When in a location or near objects
which strongly reflect radio waves,
such as the following:
• Tunnels
• Truss bridges
• Gravel roads
• Rutted, snow-covered roads
• Walls
• Large trucks
• Manhole covers
• Guardrail
• Metal plates
●When near a step or protrusion
●When a detectable vehicle is nar-
row, such as a small mobility vehi-
cle
●When a detectable vehicle has a
small front or rear end, such as an
unloaded truck
●When a detectable vehicle has a
low front or rear end, such as a
low bed trailer
●When a detectable vehicle has
extremely high ground clearance
WARNING
●Do not modify or change the
headlights and other lights.
■Front camera installation area
on the windshield
If the system determines that the
windshield may be fogged up, it
will automatically operate the
heater to defog the part of the
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as
touching it may cause burns.

Pre-winter preparations
WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so m ay result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Use tires of the specified size.
●Maintain the recommended
level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75
mph (120 km/h), regardless of
the type of snow tires being
used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just
some wheels.
■Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the
vehicle being unable to be driven
safely, and may cause death or
serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the
speed limit specifi ed for the tire
chains being used, or 30 mph
(50 km/h), whichever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road
surfaces or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden acceleration,
abrupt steering, sudden brak-
ing and shifting operations that
cause sudden regenerative
braking.
●Slow down sufficiently before
entering a curve to ensure that
vehicle control is maintained.
●Do not use LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist).
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow
tires
Request repairs or replacement of
snow tires from your Toyota
