⬛Operation of the automatic mode
The fan speed is adjusted automatically in accordance with the temperature
setting and ambient conditions. Th erefore, immediately after is
pressed, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow.
⬛Temperature control sensors
The automatic air conditioning system has sensors so that it can control tem-
perature automatically.
a Solar radiation sensor
Detects the amount of solar radia-
tion.
b Inside air temperature sensor
Detects the temperature of inside
air.
If an object is placed on the solar radiation sensor, or the inside air tempera-
ture sensor is covered up with stickers or the like, these sensors may not work
properly.
⬛Using the air conditioni ng system for cooling
In rare cases, it may appear that fog is blowing out of the air outlet, but this is
normal when moist air is suddenly cooled.
⬛Fogging up of the windows
⚫The windows will easily fog up when th e humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will flow the dehumi dified air from the outlets and
defog the windshield effectively.
⚫If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
⚫The windows may fog up if the re circulated air mode is used.

⬛When the outside air temperature drops to around 0°C (32℉)
Even if you press , the air conditioning system may not work.
⬛When the air outlets are set to (vehicles with heaters)
In order to deliver cool air to the driver and passe ngers’ faces and warm air to
their feet, depending on the set temperature, the air sent to the driver and
passengers’ feet will be warmer than the air sent to the upper body.
⬛When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle
after closing the windows, it is recomme nded that the air intake mode be set
to outside air mode and the fan speed to any setting except off.
⬛Outside/recirculated air mode
Setting to the recirculated air mode temporarily is recommended in prevent-
ing dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the vehicle
when the outside air temperature is high.
⬛Ventilation and air conditioning odors
⚫To let fresh air in, set the air conditio ning system to the outside air introduc-
tion mode.
⚫During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odors to
be emitted from the vents.
⚫When the automatic mode is used, the fan may stop for a while immediately
after the air conditioning system starts to reduce potential odors generated
during startup. In addition, it is re commended that the air conditioning sys-
tem be set to outside air introduction mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

WARNING
⬛To prevent the windshield from fogging up (vehicles with heaters)
⚫Do not press when setting the temperature of the air condition-
ing system low in extremely humid weather. Also, do not switch the air out-
lets to . The difference between the temperature of the outside air and
that of the windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog
up, blocking your vision.
⚫Do not place anything on the
instrument panel which may cover
the air outlets. Otherwise, air flow
may be obstructed, preventing the
windshield defoggers from defog-
ging.
NOTICE
⬛To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the
engine is stopped.
⬛Air outlets (vehicles with heaters)
Be careful when adjusting the air outlets while using the air conditioning sys-
tem for heating, for the outlets will become hot.

6-1. Maintenance and care
Cleaning and protecting the vehicle exterior
Perform the following to clean and protect the vehicle:
⚫Working from top to bottom, liberally apply water to the vehicle body,
wheel wells and underside of the vehicle to remove any dirt and dust
⚫Wash the vehicle body using a sponge or soft cloth, such as a chamois
⚫When heavily soiled, use car wash so ap and rinse thoroughly with water
⚫Wipe away any water
⚫Wax the vehicle when the water repellency deteriorates
If water does not bead on a clean surface even after removing the dirt on body sur-
face, apply wax when the vehicle body is cooled down (when it becomes approxi-
mately below the body temperature)
Handling of the pole antenna✽
The antenna can be removed or retracted when washing the vehicle.
a Remove
b Attach
c Fold
To listen to the radio, pull out the
antenna as is appropriate.
⬛Automatic car washes
⚫Fold the outside rear view mirrors before a car wash.
Start washing from the front of the vehi cle. Make sure to extend the outside
rear view mirrors before driving.
⚫Brushes used in automatic car washes may scratch the vehicle surface and
harm your vehicle’s paint.
⚫Depending on the car wash, the vehic le gets scratched or damaged, or it
may not be possible to wash the car, as the rear spoiler gets stuck.
⬛High pressure car washes
As water may enter the cabin, do not bring the nozzle tip near the gaps around
the doors or perimeter of the windows, or spray these areas continuously.

Do-it-yourself maintenance
⚫What about do-it-yourself maintenance?
Many of the maintenance items are easy to do yourself if you have a little mechanical
ability and a few basic automotive tools. Simple instructions for how to perform them
are presented in this section.
Note, however, that some maintenance task s require special tools and skills. These
are best performed by qualified technician s. Even if you are an experienced do-it-
yourself mechanic, we recommend that repairs and maintenance be conducted by
your Toyota dealer who will keep a record of maintenance on your vehicle. This
record could be helpful should you ever require Warranty Service.
⬛Does your vehicle need repairs?
Be on the alert for changes in performance and sounds, and visual tip-offs that
indicate service is needed. Some important clues are:
⚫Engine misses, stumbling or pinging
⚫Appreciable loss of power
⚫Strange engine noises
⚫A fluid leak under the vehicle (However , water dripping from the air condi-
tioning system after use is normal.)
⚫Change in exhaust sound (This may indica te a dangerous carbon monoxide leak.
Drive with the windows open and have th e exhaust system checked immediately.)
⚫Flat-looking tires, excessive tire squeal when cornering, uneven tire wear
⚫Vehicle pulls to one side when driven straight on a level road
⚫Strange noises related to suspension movement
⚫Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal or clutch pedal (vehi-
cles with a manual transmission), pe dal almost touches the floor, vehicle
pulls to one side when braking
⚫Engine coolant temperature continually higher than normal
If you notice any of these clues, take yo ur vehicle to your Toyota dealer as soon
as possible. Your vehicle may need adjustment or repair.
WARNING
⬛If your vehicle is not properly maintained
Improper maintenance could result in serious damage to the vehicle and pos-
sible death or serious injury.
⬛Handling of the battery
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds which are known to cause brain damage. Wash your hands after han-
dling. ( ➞P. 321)

be serviced more frequently in order to keep your vehicle in good condi-
tion. (See “Additional maintenance schedule”.)
⬛Road Condition
⚫Operating on rough or muddy roads, or roads with melted snow
⚫Operating on dusty roads (Roads in areas where their pavement rate is
low, or a cloud of dust often arises and the air is dry.)
⬛Driving Condition
