RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
⬛Fuel tank opening for unleaded gasoline
To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that
only accommodates the special nozzle on unleaded fuel pumps.
WARNING
⬛When refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while re fueling the vehicle. Failure to do so
may result in death or serious injury.
⚫After exiting the vehicle and before opening the fuel door, touch an
unpainted metal surface to discharge any static electricity. It is important to
discharge static electricity before re fueling because sparks resulting from
static electricity can cause fuel va pors to ignite while refueling.
⚫Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot
weather, pressurized fuel may spray ou t the filler neck and cause injury.
⚫Do not allow anyone that has not dischar ged static electricity from their body
to come close to an open fuel tank.
⚫Do not inhale vaporized fuel.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.
⚫Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
⚫Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically
charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition
hazard.
⬛When refueling
Observe the following prec autions to prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel
tank:
⚫Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.
⚫Stop filling the tank after the fu el nozzle automatically clicks off.
⚫Do not top off the fuel tank.
⬛When replacing the fuel tank cap
Do not use anything but a genuine Toyota fuel tank cap designed for your
vehicle. Doing so may cause a fire or other incident which may result in death
or serious injury.

RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
dBuzzer
BSM buzzer: When you have moved the turn signal lever to the side where the vehi-
cle is detected, the buzzer will sound.
RCTA Buzzer: When a vehicle approaching from the right or left rear end of your
vehicle is detected, the buzzer will sound.
WARNING
⬛To use the BSM function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The BSM function is an auxilia ry system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that has entere d or is rapidly approaching toward the
blind spot area of the outside rear view mirrors. Since this system alone is not
sufficient for determining the feasibility of changing lanes, overly relying on the
system could lead to an unforeseen accid ent, resulting in serious injury or
death.
This system does not work effectively depending on the circumstances. The
driver is responsible for checking the safety around the vehicle by using his/
her own eyes and the mirrors.
⬛To use the RCTA function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The RCTA function is an auxiliary system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that is approaching from the right or left rear of the vehi-
cle.
Even with the RCTA function enabled, this system does not work effectively
depending on the circumstances. The dr iver is responsible for checking the
safety around the vehicle by using his/her own eyes.
Overly relying on the system could lead to an unforeseen accident, resulting in
serious injury or death.

For the system to work properly,
observe the precautions listed
below.
⚫Keep the rear bumper near the sensors clean at all times.

not be able to detect vehicles correctly, or the devices may not work as
intended.
⚫In the following case, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
⦁ The sensors and the areas near the sensors received a strong impact
⦁ There is a scratch or dent on the rear bumper near the sensors, or some
of the bumper parts are missing
⚫Do not disassemble the sensors.
⚫Do not paste stickers or install accessories on the sensors or on the rear
bumper near the sensors.
⚫Do not alter the sensors or the rear bumper near the sensors.
⚫Do not paint the rear bumper any color other than an official Toyota color.
