NOTICE
⬛Camera handling
⚫Be careful with the following since they could cause the rear-view camera to
malfunction.
⦁Do not install any item around the camera, which could interfere with the
camera’s field of view (such as an item blocking the view or light-emitting
objects, items made of shiny materials).
⦁ Do not apply strong impact to the ca mera unit, such as hitting it hard or
bumping it against another object. Doing so could cause the camera posi-
tion or mounting angle to be deviated.
⦁ The camera unit has a waterproof structure. Do not remove, disassemble
or alter it.
⦁ When you wash the camera lens, use water to wash the dirt off from the
camera and wipe it off with a so ft cloth dampened with water.
If you rub the camera lens too hard, it could scratch the camera lens, and
you will not be able to see clear images.
⦁ The camera’s cover is made of resin. Do not allow organic solvents, body
wax, oil film remover, and glass coating agent to get attached to it. If they
get attached, wipe it off immediately.
⦁ Do not expose it to rapid temperature changes, such as by pouring hot
water over it in cold weather.
⦁ Do not splash water directly to the camera or areas around the camera
using a high-pressure washer during a car wash. The high water pressure
adds stress and may prevent the system from working properly.
⚫Applying shock to the camera unit may cause the camera to malfunction.
Have the vehicle inspected at your Toyo ta dealer in your earliest conveni-
ence.

Driving assist systems
The following devices automatically operate according to the driving
conditions to improve driving safety and performance. However,
these systems are supplementary and you should be careful not to
over-rely on them while driving.
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if
the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface.
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force when the system detects a
panic stop situation.
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning on
slippery road surfaces.
◆TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and pr event the drive wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.
◆Hill-start assist control
Prevents the vehicle from moving backwards when starting on an uphill.
◆EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Uses an electric motor to assist steering operation.
◆Emergency brake signal
Emergency flashers automatically fl ash when braking suddenly, alerting
the following vehicle and reducing the possibility of a collision.

4-6. Driving tips
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before driving
the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a manner appropri-
ate to the prevailing weather conditions.Preparation for winter
⚫Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside temperatures.
⦁ Engine oil
⦁ Coolant
⦁ Washer fluid
⚫Have a service technician inspec t the condition of the battery.
Before driving
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
⚫Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a windshield wiper that is
frozen. Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
⚫To ensure proper operation of the air conditioning system fan, remove
any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in front of the
windshield.
⚫Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accumu-
lated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, around the tires or on the
brakes.
⚫Look under the vehicle and check that there are no ice blocks around
the ground. Remove any attached ice blocks with great care to avoid
damaging vehicle components. Also check that the pedals and steering
wheel move smoothly.
⚫Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before getting
in the vehicle.

When driving the vehicle
⚫Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you and the
vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road conditions.
⚫During snowfall or cold weather, water adhering to the brake system
may freeze, and the brakes may become less effective. If brake perfor-
mance is poor, paying close attention to the surrounding safety, lightly
depress the brake pedal several times to confirm that the brakes work
properly until their effectiveness is restored.
⚫When driving on snowy roads, snow attached to the back of the wheel
wells freezes and may grad ually accumulate, making it difficult to steer.
Check that there is no abnormal build-up of snow from time to time. The
lights may become dark due to snow during driving, so make sure that
there is no abnormal build-up of snow from time to time.
When parking the vehicle
⚫The parking brake may freeze up, preventing it from being released. For
continuously variable transmission vehicles, set the shift lever to P. For
the manual transmission vehicles, set the shift lever to R on a downhill,
and set it to the gear 1 on an uphill to park. Do not apply the parking
brake at this time, and make sure to use wheel chocks.
Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehicle to
move unexpectedly, possibly leading to an unforeseen accident.
⚫When you park the continuously variable transmission vehicle without
applying the parking brake, confirm that the shift lever will not move*
with the shift lever being placed in P.
*The shift lever will be locked if it is attempted to be shifted from P to any other
position without depressing the brake pe dal. If the shift lever can be shifted,
there may be a problem with the shift lo ck system. Have the vehicle inspected at
your Toyota dealer immediately.
