General information
Safety information
WA R N I N G
A damaged regular tire with low or
missing tire inflation pressure
impacts handling, such as steer-
ing and braking response. Do not
continue driving if the vehicle is
equipped with normal tires.
If a tire inflation pressure
check is required
SymbolPossible cause
Inflation was not carried
out according to specifi-
cations, e.g., the tire
has not been suffi-
ciently inflated.
The system has
detected a wheel
change, but no reset
was done.
The tire inflation pres-
sure has fallen below
the level of the last
reset.
No reset was per-
formed for the system.
The system issues a
warning based on the
tire inflation pressures
stored during the last
reset.
If the tire inflation pressure
is too low
A yellow warning light is
illuminated in the instru-
ment cluster.

pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If
your vehicle has tires of a dif-
ferent size than the size indi-
cated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label,
you should determine the
proper tire inflation pressure
for those tires.) As an added
safety feature, your vehicle
has been equipped with a tire
pressure monitoring system
(TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale when one
or more of your tires is signifi-
cantly under-inflated. Accord-
ingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates,
you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possi-
ble, and inflate them to the
proper pressure. Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat
and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehi-
cle's handling and stopping
ability. Please note that the
TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and
it is the driver's responsibility
to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation
has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the
TPMS low tire pressure tell-tale. Your vehicle has also
been equipped with a TPMS
malfunction indicator to indi-
cate when the system is not
operating properly. The TPMS
malfunction indicator is com-
bined with the low tire pres-
sure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the tell-
tale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then
remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will
continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as
the malfunction exists. When
the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal
low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may
occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of
replacement or alternate tires
or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from func-
tioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires
and wheels allow the TPMS
to continue to function prop-
erly.

This chapter describes all stan-
dard, country-specific and
optional features offered with
the series. It also describes fea-
tures and functions that are not
necessarily available in your
vehicle, e.g., due to the selected
options or country versions. This
also applies to safety-related
functions and systems. When
using these functions and sys-
tems, the applicable laws and
regulations must be observed.
The maintenance system pro-
vides service notifications and
thereby provides support in
maintaining road safety and the
operational reliability of the vehi-
cle.
In some cases, scopes and
intervals of the maintenance
system may vary according to
the country version. Replace-
ment work, spare parts, fuels
and lubricants, and wear materi-
als are calculated separately.
Further information is available
from a Toyota dealer. Sensors and special algorithms
take into account the driving
conditions of the vehicle. CBS
uses these to calculate the need
for maintenance.
The system makes it possible to
adapt the amount of mainte-
nance corresponding to your
user profile.
Information on service notifica-
tions, refer to page 145, can be
displayed on the Control Dis-
play.
Storage periods during which
the vehicle battery was discon-
nected are not taken into
account.
If this occurs, have a Toyota
dealer update the time-depen-
dent maintenance procedures,
such as checking brake fluid
and, if necessary, changing the
engine oil and the microfil-
ter/activated-charcoal filter.

Condensation can form on the
inside of the headlight glass in
cool or humid weather. When
driving with the lights switched
on, the condensation evapo-
rates after a short time. The
headlight glass does not need to
be changed.
If despite driving with the head-
lights switched on, increasing
humidity forms, for instance
water droplets in the light, have
the headlights checked. The battery is maintenance-free.
More information regarding the
battery can be requested from
your Toyota dealer.
The manufacturer of your vehi-
cle recommends that you have
your Toyota dealer register the
vehicle battery to the vehicle
after the battery has been
replaced. Once the battery has
been registered again, all com-
fort features will be available
without restriction and any vehi-
cle messages displayed which
relate to comfort features will
disappear.
The installed battery is designed
specifically for this vehicle. If an
inappropriate battery is used,
operation of the Auto Start Stop
function may be restricted in
order to protect the battery.
Also, the battery may deterio-
rate faster than normal and the
engine may not be able to be
restarted. Contact your Toyota
dealer for details.

When cleaning the vehicle, use
only neutral wheel cleaners hav-
ing a pH value from 5 to 9. Do
not use abrasive cleaning
agents or steam jets above 140
°F/60 °C. Follow the manufac-
turer's instructions.
Aggressive, acidic or alkaline
cleaning agents can destroy the
protective layer of adjacent
components, such as the brake
disc.
After cleaning, apply the brakes
briefly to dry them. The heat
generated during braking dries
brake discs and brake pads and
protects them against corrosion.
Carefully clean components
such as the radiator grille or
door handles with plenty of
water, possibly with shampoo
added, particularly when they have been exposed to road salt.
Environmental i
nfluences can
cause surface soiling of rubber
parts and a loss of gloss. Use
only water and suitable cleaning
agents for cleaning.
Treat especially worn rubber
parts with rubber care agents at
regular intervals. When cleaning
rubber seals, do not use any sili-
con-containing vehicle care
products in order to avoid dam-
age or noises.
Clean with a microfiber cloth.
Dampen cloth lightly with water.
Do not soak the roofliner.
