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.

tective coating. T o prevent any dam-
age to the IR prote ctive coating,
observe the following:
●If the windows are dirty, gently
wipe them with a cloth soaked in
