4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
Driving
An optical sensor is adopted. It may
not operate properly when sunlight from the rising or setting of the sun intermittently strikes the windshield, or
if bugs etc. are present on the wind- shield.
●If the wiper is turned to AUTO mode while the engine switch is in ON, the wipers will operate once to show that
AUTO mode is activated.
●If the temperature of the raindrop sen-
sor is 85°C (185°F) or higher, or -15°C (5°F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case, operate
the wipers in any mode other than AUTO mode.
■If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the windshield washer fluid reservoir.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of windshield wipers in AUTO mode (vehicles with rain-sensing wind-
shield wipers)
The windshield wipers may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched
or the windshield is subject to vibra- tion in AUTO mode. Take care that your fingers or anything else do not
become caught in the windshield wip- ers.
■Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer
fluid until the windshield becomes warm. The fluid may freeze on the windshield and cause low visibility.
This may lead to an accident, result- ing in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When there is no washer fluid
spray from the nozzle
Damage to the washer fluid pump may be caused if the lever is pulled
toward you and held continually.
■When a nozzle becomes blocked
In this case, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.

WARNING
●Assisting the driver to judge proper following distance
The dynamic radar cruise control
determines whether the following dis-
tance between the driver’s own vehi-
cle and a designated vehicle traveling
ahead is within a set range. It is not
capable of making any other type of
judgement. Therefore, it is absolutely
necessary for the driver to remain vig-
ilant and to determine whether or not
there is a possibility of danger in any
given situation.
●Assisting the driver to operate the
vehicle
The dynamic radar cruise control
does not include functions which will
prevent or avoid collisions with vehi-
cles ahead of your vehicle. Therefore,
if there is ever any possibility of dan-
ger, the driver must take immediate
and direct control of the vehicle and
act appropriately in order to ensure
the safety of all involved.
■Situations unsuitable for dynamic radar cruise control
Do not use dynamic radar cruise con-
trol in any of the following situations. Doing so may result in inappropriate speed control and could cause an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
●Roads where there are pedestrians, cyclists, etc.
●In heavy traffic
●On roads with sharp bends
●On winding roads
●On slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow
●On steep downhills, or where there are sudden changes between sharp up and down gradients
Vehicle speed may exceed the set speed when driving down a steep hill.
●At entrances to freeways and high-ways
●When weather conditions are bad enough that they may prevent the sensors from detecting correctly
(fog, snow, sandstorm, heavy rain, etc.)
●When there is rain, snow, etc., on the front surface of the radar or front camera
●In traffic conditions that require fre-quent repeated acceleration and
deceleration
●During emergency towing
●When an approach warning buzzer is heard often

■Objects which the system may not
be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay particular
attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections pro-
jecting outwards in the direction of your vehicle
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the sur- rounding environment may affect the ability of a sensor to correctly detect
objects. Particular instances where this may occur are listed below.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen the sensor display may be displayed abnormally, or objects, such
as a wall, may not be detected.
●When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on an
incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●When vehicle horns, vehicle detec-
tors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of large vehicles, the clearance sonar of other vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the
vehicle
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●If objects draw too close to the sensor.
●Pedestrians wearing clothes which only partially reflect ultrasonic waves
(ex. skirts with gathers or frills).
●When objects that are not perpendicu-
lar to the ground, not perpendicular to the vehicle traveling direction, uneven, or waving are in the detection
range.
●Strong wind is blowing
●When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm
●When an object that cannot be detected is between the vehicle and a
detected object
●If an object such as a vehicle, motor-
cycle, bicycle or pedestrian cuts in front of the vehicle or runs out from the side of the vehicle
●If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact
●When equipment that may obstruct a
sensor is installed, such as a towing eyelet, bumper protector (an addi-tional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier,
or snow plow
●If the front of the vehicle is raised or
lowered due to the carried load
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a
stable manner, such as when the vehicle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●When a tire chains, compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair
kit is used
■Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-ity of a collision
In some situations, such as the follow- ing, the system may operate even though there is no possibility of a colli-
sion.
