6-1. Maintenance and care
WARNING
●If something bumps against the windshield
●If you directly touch the raindrop sensor body or if something bumps
into the raindrop sensor
■Precautions regarding the
exhaust pipe
Exhaust gasses cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be careful not to touch the pipe until it has cooled sufficiently, as touching a hot
exhaust pipe can cause burns.
■Precaution regarding the rear
bumper with Blind Spot Monitor (if equipped)
If the paint of the rear bumper is
chipped or scratched, the system may malfunction. If this occurs, consult with any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli- able repairer.
NOTICE
■To prevent paint deterioration and corrosion on the body and components (aluminum wheels,
etc.)
●Wash the vehicle immediately in the following cases:
• After driving near the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar or tree sap is present on
the paint surface
• If dead insects, insect droppings or
bird droppings are present on the paint surface
• After driving in an area contami- nated with soot, oily smoke, mine dust, iron powder or chemical sub-
stances
• If the vehicle becomes heavily soiled with dust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gas- oline are spilled on the paint sur-face
●If the paint is chipped or scratched, have it repaired immediately.
●To prevent the wheels from corrod-ing, remove any dirt and store in a
place with low humidity when stor- ing the wheels.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic substances or scrub with a hard
brush. This may damage the surfaces 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 an automatic car wash
Set the wiper switch to the off posi- tion. If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”, the wipers may operate and the wiper
blades may be damaged.

6-2. Matte paint care guide (if equipped)
Dirt
Due to the slight unevenness, matte
clear coat surfaces are more likely to
trap dirt and other foreign matter com-
pared to normal clear coat surfaces.
If dirt or foreign matter is left on the
vehicle, it may settle into the textured
surface of the matte clear coat, making
it more difficult to remove. Additionally,
as the surface of the matte clear coat
will become more flat when dirty, the
vehicle body will start to look glossy,
ruining the textured finish.
Therefore, make sure to clean the vehi-
cle regularly and not allow dirt to remain
on the vehicle for extended periods of
time.
If dirt or foreign matter is allowed to set-
tle and cannot be cleaned off with nor-
mal washing, it will be necessary to
remove the dirt with the upper layer of
the textured finish and then to repaint
the entire part.
Ask your any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer for details.
■Materials that may become difficult to remove
The following are likely to settle into the
vehicle body and should be cleaned off immediately.
●Rain water, sea water, and other liq-uids that may cause water stains
●Sand, pollen, volcanic ash, and other particulate matter
●Dead insects, bird droppings, etc.
●Sap, leaves, flowers, etc.
●Mud, snow, anti-freezing agents, and other road debris
●Gasoline, engine oil, asphalt, and other oily materials
■Do not wax or apply a coating to
the vehicle
Do not wax the vehicle or apply a coat-
ing to the vehicle body, as they will form a film over the painted surfaces, filling the matte clear coat surface, making it
more flat. As a result, it will become more glossy, possibly permanently los-ing its matte properties.

Maintenance and care
Wipe the vehicle body from top to bot-
tom.
If dirt persists ( P.257)
3Using another soft chamois
cloth, dry the vehicle while tak-
ing care to not rub the vehicle
body.
Make sure to remove any standing water before it evaporates.
Do not use the same chamois cloth that
was used to wash the vehicle (step 2).
■If dirt cannot be washed off with water alone
●Water stains
If liquid, such as rain water or tap water,
evaporates on a painted surface, dirt or
minerals in the liquid may be left behind.
If not cleaned off, the contaminants may
settle into the textured surface of the
matte clear coat, making it difficult to
clean off with water alone.
Contaminant
Citric acid
●In this case, to remove the contami- nants, use dilute citric acid.
Dissolve citric acid powder in distilled
water at the following ratio:
Citric acid powder: 5 to 10 g (0.01 to
0.02 lb.) (1 to 2 teaspoons)
Distilled water: 0.2L (0.2 qt., 0.2 Imp. qt.)
Thoroughly soak a soft chamois cloth in
the citric acid and place the chamois
cloth over the dirty area. Wait for the
contaminants to be dissolved by the
acid. Then, gently wipe the area several
times with the chamois cloth, taking care
to not rub the vehicle body. After that,
apply plenty of water to the area to wash
off the contaminants and acid.
●Dead insects, bird droppings, and oil stains
If these materials are not cleaned off,
contaminants, such as proteins and oil,
may settle into the textured surface of
the matte clear coat, making it difficult to
clean off with water alone.

■If the vehicle body is dirty (P.253)
Question: What should I do if any of the following have attache d to the vehi-
cle?
ItemAnswer
Leaves, flowers, branches,
etc.
Remove immediately.
They may scratch the matte clear coat and if they are
allowed to remain on the vehicle, dirt may settle into
the matte clear coat, making it more flat. As a result, it
will become more glossy, possibly permanently losing
its matte properties.
Dead insects, bird drop-
pings, etc.
Remove immediately.
They may scratch the matte clear coat and if they are
allowed to remain on the vehicle, dirt may settle into
the matte clear coat, making it more flat. As a result, it
will become more glossy, possibly permanently losing
its matte properties.
Sand, pollen, and other
particulate matter
Wash off with water immediately.
If the contaminants cannot be removed with water
alone, use a neutral detergent solution. If the contami-
nants are allowed to remain on the vehicle, they may
settle into the matte clear coat, making it more flat. As
a result, it will become more glossy, possibly perma-
nently losing its matte properties.
Oil stains
Asphalt (tar)
Wa t e r s t ai n sUse dilute citric acid (citric acid powder dissolved in
distilled water) to remove the water stains.
Water repellent glass coat-
ing
Remove immediately.
Even if removed, depending on the contaminant, the
matte clear coat may be damaged, possibly perma-
nently losing its matte properties.

Maintenance and care
■Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of engine oil will be
consumed while driving. In the following situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be
refilled in between oil maintenance inter- vals.
●When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or after replacing the engine
●If low quality oil or oil of an inappropri-ate viscosity is used
●When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing
(vehicles with towing packages), or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently
●When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently
through heavy trafficThe coolant level is satisfactory if it
is between the “MAX” and “MIN”
lines on the reservoir when the
engine is cold.
Reservoir cap
“MAX” line
“MIN” line
If the level is on or below the “MIN” line,
add coolant up to the “MAX” line.
