Adjust the mirror so that you can just
see the side of your vehicle in the mir-
ror.
Be careful when judging the size or dis-
tance of any object seen in the outside
rear view mirror on the passenger ’s side
because it is a convex mirror. Any object
seen in a convex mirror will look smaller
and farther away than when seen in a flat
mirror.Vehicles with the auto anti
−glare inside
rear view mirror—
When the inside rear view mirror surface
darkens in automatic mode, the driver ’s
side and front passenger ’s side (on some
models) outside rear view mirror surface
also darkens to reduce the reflection of
the headlights of the vehicle behind you.
(For details, see “Auto anti −glare inside
rear view mirror” on page 121 in this Sec-
tion.)
When you push the rear window defogger
switch, the heater panels in the outside
rear view mirrors will quickly clear the
surface. (See “Rear window and outside
rear view mirror defoggers” on page 140
in Section 1− 5.)
CAUTION
Do not adjust the mirror while the
vehicle is moving. Doing so may
cause the driver to mishandle the
vehicle and an accident may occur
resulting in death or serious inju-
ries.
On some models, since the mirror
surfaces can get hot, do not touch
them when the defogger switch is
on.
NOTICE
The outside rear view mirrors are
fixed in place. Do not try to fold the
mirrors. It may damage the mirrors.

To adjust the brightness of the instru-
ment panel lights, turn the knob.
With the knob turned fully clockwise, the
intensity of the instrument panel lights will
not be reduced even when the tail lights/
headlights are turned on.To turn on the front fog lights, twist
the band of the headlight switch lever
to the fog light mark. They will come
on only when the headlights are on low
beam.To turn on the interior light, push the
switch.
The interior light switch has the following
positions:
“ON”—Keeps the light on all the time.
“OFF”—Turns the light off.
“DOOR”—Turns the light on when any
door is opened. The light goes off when
all the doors are closed. For details, see
“Illuminated entry system” on page 135 in
this Section.
Interior light and rear personal
lights—The rear personal lights can be
turned on or off by the interior light
switch.

To defog or defrost the rear window,
push the switch.
The ignition switch must be set at ON.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window will quickly clear the surface.
An indicator light will illuminate to indicate
the defogger is operating.
Type B only—The heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will also quickly
clear the surfaces. Keep your hands off
the mirror faces when the switch is on.
Push the switch once again to turn the
defoggers off.
The system will automatically shut off af-
ter the defogger has operated about 15
minutes.
CAUTION
Type B only—Since the mirror sur-
faces can get hot, do not touch them
when the defogger switch is on.
Make sure you turn the defoggers off
when the surfaces are clear. Leaving the
defoggers on for a long time could cause
the battery to discharge, especially during
stop−and− go driving. The defoggers are
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
Type B only—If the outside rear view mir-
rors are heavily coated with ice, use a
spray de −icer before operating the switch.
NOTICE
When cleaning the inside of the rear
window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires or connec-
tors.

This system operates by detecting pri-
marily the reflectors of the vehicle
ahead. The distance may not be accu-
rately or absolutely detected in the fol-
lowing cases:
The vehicle ahead has higher ground
clearance, which means that the
placement of the reflectors is in a
higher position.
The rear section of the vehicle ahead
is extremely dirty.
The vehicle ahead or other vehicles
around you are flinging up water or
snow.
Excessive exhaust gas (black smoke)
is coming from the vehicle ahead or
other vehicles around you, obscuring
your front view.
There is an obstruction (protective
film, sticker, etc.) on the reflectors
on the vehicle ahead, or reflectors
are not installed on the vehicle
ahead or are damaged.
Heavy luggage in the luggage
compartment or rear seats is caus-
ing the nose of your vehicle to tilt
up.
CAUTION
To avoid accidents, always keep the
laser radar sensor glass clean and
never allow it to be covered with
icicle or any substance, so it can de-
tect the vehicle in front. (See “LASER
RADAR SENSOR” on page 189.)
CAUTION
Do not rely excessively on dynamic
laser cruise control. Observe the fol-
lowing precautions in order to avoid
serious injury or death:
Under certain conditions where the
vehicle in front slows drastically, or
is stopped, the dynamic laser cruise
control will neither warn you nor
decelerate. You must depress the
brake pedal to slow down, ensuring
collision avoidance or that suffi-
cient vehicletovehicle distance is
maintained.
Do not use dynamic laser cruise
control in the following conditions:
In bad weather (such as rain, fog,
snow, sandstorms or direct sun-
light, or when raindrops or snow-
flakes get on the laser radar sensor
glass), the vehicletovehicle dis-
tance will not be measured accura-
tely.
When using the windshield wipers
at high or low speeds the dynamic
laser radar cruise control turns off.

VEHICLETOVEHICLE DISTANCE
CONTROL MODE FAILURE WARNING
If there is trouble somewhere in the dy-
namic laser cruise control while the ve-
hicle−to −vehicle distance control mode is
on, the master warning light comes on
and the alarm sounds, and one of the
warning codes “C1”, “C2” or “E3” will ap-
pear on the display. Dynamic laser cruise
control is automatically cancelled.
If “E3” appears on the display, the
“CRUISE” indicator light in the instrument
cluster also flashes. If “C1” appears on the display,
the sys-
tem cannot easily measure the vehicle −to −
vehicle distance because of a dirty laser
radar sensor glass while the dynamic la-
ser cruise control is on.
If this code appears, clean the sensor
glass with a soft cloth and try setting the
preset speed again. If the dirt is removed
without cleaning, the system will automati-
cally enter the ready mode.
If the system does not enter the ready
mode even after cleaning or the code re-
mains on the display, the system might be
malfunctioning. Although there is no prob-
lem to continue driving, please contact
your Toyota dealer.
CAUTION
Always keep the sensor glass and
never allow it to be covered with
icicle or any substance, so it can de-
tect the vehicle in front.
If “C2” appears on the display, the sys-
tem cannot easily measure the vehicle −to −
vehicle distance because of the following
conditions:
The wipers are operating at high or low
speeds
Direct sunlight from the front
It is difficult to make a measurement
because of bad weather (such as rainy,
foggy, or snowy weather)
In the following cases, dynamic laser
cruise control switches to the ready mode:
The wipers are stopped or are
switched to intermittent operation.
No direct sunlight from the front
In the above conditions, push the lever up
in the “+ RES” direction and release it.
Dynamic laser cruise control will be re-
stored. If the setting operation cannot be
performed or if the warning code still ap-
pears even after the weather clears, the
system might have malfuncti oned. Al-
though there is no problem to continue
driving, please contact your Toyota dealer.

Vehicles with discharge headlights—
Do not touch the highintensity dis-
charge headlight’s high voltage
socket when the headlights are
turned on. An extremely high volt-
age of 20000 V will be discharged
and could result in serious injury or
death by electric shock.
Do not attempt to take apart or re-
pair the low beam headlight bulbs,
connectors, power supply circuits,
or related components. Doing so
could result in electric shock and
serious injury or death. Call your
Toyota dealer for headlight repair or
servicing, including replacement of
bulbs and bulb disposal.
NOTICE
Only use a bulb of the listed type.
The inside of the lens of exterior lights
such as headlights may temporarily fog up
when the lens becomes wet in the rain or
in a car wash. This is not a problem
because the fogging is caused by the
temperature difference between the outside
and inside of the lens, just like the
windshield fogs up in the rain. However, if
there is a large drop of water on the
inside of the lens, or if there is water
pooled inside the light, contact your
Toyota dealer.Light bulbsBulb
