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.

Eco-friendly driving tips
For improved fuel economy and reduced CO2 emissions, pay atten-
tion to the following points:
◆Accelerator pedal/brake pedal operation
Drive your vehicle smoothly. Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration.
Gradual acceleration and deceleration will help reduce excessive fuel con-
sumption.
◆When braking
Observe conditions in front of and around the vehicle, and estimate your
stopping position. Release the accele rator pedal early and continue coast-
ing. Use the brake pedal to adjust your stopping position.
Make sure to operate the brake pedal gently.
◆Delays
Repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as long waits at traffic
lights, will lead to bad fuel economy. Check traffic reports before leaving
and avoid delays as much as possible.
◆Highway driving
Control and maintain the vehicle at a constant speed. Before stopping at a
toll booth or similar, allow plenty of time to release the accelerator pedal
and gently apply the brakes.
◆Air conditioning
Use the air conditioning only when necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive fuel consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temper ature is high, use the recirculated
air mode. Doing so will help to redu ce the burden on the air conditioning
system and reduce fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Turn the A/C switch on on ly when both heating and dehumidify-
ing are needed, and if only heating is needed, turn the A/C switch off.
Turning the A/C switch on when unnece ssary leads to excessive fuel con-
sumption.

2424-6. Driving tips
RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
◆Performing idling stops
⚫Avoid unnecessary idling. Stop the engine when parking the vehicle to
reduce excessive fuel consumption, even it is only for a short period of
time.
⚫Except in severe environment, such as when the outside temperature is
extremely low, warming up the engine before driving is unnecessary.
Rather than idling, it is more efficient to drive the vehicle gently to warm
up each part while avoiding increasing the engine revolutions unneces-
sarily and accelerating or decelerating suddenly.
◆Luggage
Carrying heavy luggage will lead to poor fuel economy. Avoid carrying
unnecessary luggage. Installing a large roof rack will also cause poor fuel
economy.
◆Regular maintenance
⚫Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Improper tire
inflation pressure can cause poor fu el economy. Also, as snow tires can
cause large amounts of friction, thei r use on dry roads can lead to poor
fuel economy. Use tires that are appropriate for the season and road
conditions.
⚫Use oil and fluid of the recommended quality, which affect fuel con-
sumption and the life of the vehicle. Also, check oil and fluid periodically.

⬛Cleaning the exterior lights
⚫Wash carefully. Do not use any organic solvent or scrub with a hard brush.
This may damage the su rfaces 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 outside rear view mirrors
When using an automatic car wash, fo ld the outside rear view mirrors.
⬛Handling of the pole antenna✽
When handling the antenna, do not use ex cessive force. It may lead to defor-
mation of the body or damage to the antenna.
⬛To prevent damage to the pole antenna✽
⚫Retract the antenna if it touches the garage ceiling, etc.
⚫Remove the antenna in the following cases
⦁ When covering the vehicle with a car cover
⦁ When using an automatic car wash
⦁ When parking the vehicle for a long time during snowfall
⬛Removing the pole antenna✽
⚫Make sure that the antenna is insta lled to the vehicle when driving normally.
⚫Be careful not to misplace the antenna when removing it for using an auto-
matic car wash, etc. Replace the ante nna on your vehicle before resuming
driving.
⬛Precautions when wa shing the vehicle
⚫When washing the vehicle, do not pre ss hard, such as by applying weight.
The vehicle body may be dented.
⚫Check that the fuel filler door is cl osed. High water pressure can cause the
fuel filler door to open vigorously and damage the vehicle body and fuel filler
door.
⚫Washing the vehicle with hot water may damage plastic parts.
⚫When you wash the car with a machine using steam, keep the steam away
from the sonar area. The steam may cause the system to malfunction.
⚫Do not use detergents or waxes containing abrasives (compounds).
⬛When using an automatic car wash
Set the air conditioning system to “recirculated air mode”. Water may get
inside the vehicle and cause a malfunction.

6-2. Maintenance
Maintenance requirements
To ensure safe and economical driving, day-to-day care and regular
maintenance are essential. Toyota recommends the following main-
tenance:
General maintenance
General maintenance should be performed on a daily basis. This can be
done by yourself or by a Toyota dealer. Scheduled maintenance
⚫Scheduled maintenance should be performed at specified intervals
according to the maintenance schedule.
The interval for scheduled maintenance is determined by the odometer reading or
the time interval, whichever comes first, shown in the schedule.
Maintenance beyond the last period should be performed at the same intervals.
⚫Where to go for maintenance service?
It makes good sense to take your vehicle to your local Toyota dealer for maintenance
service as well as other inspections and repairs.
Toyota technicians are well-trained specialist s receiving the latest service information
through technical bulletins, service tips and in-dealership training programs. They
learn to work on Toyota before they work on your vehicle, rather than while they are
working on it. Doesn’t that seem like the best way?
Your Toyota dealer has invested a lot of money in special Toyota tools and service
equipment. It helps them to do the job better and at less cost.
Your Toyota dealer’s service department will perform all of the scheduled mainte-
nance on your vehicle re liably and economically.
Rubber hoses (for cooling and heater system, brake system and fuel system) should
be inspected by a qualified technician according to the Toyota maintenance sched-
ule.
Rubber hoses are particularly important maintenance items. Have any deteriorated
or damaged hoses replaced immediately. Note that rubber hoses will deteriorate
with age, resulting in swe lling, chafing or cracking.
