2084-3. Operating the lights and wipers
■Effects of vehicle speed on wiper
operation (vehicles with rain-sens- ing windshield wipers)
Vehicle speed affects the Intermittent
wiper interval.
■Raindrop sensor (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
●The raindrop sensor judges the amount of raindrops.
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.
■When stopping the engine in an
emergency while driving
If the windshield wipers are operating when the engine is stopped, the wind-
shield wipers will operate in high speed
operation. After the vehicle is stopped, operation will return to normal when the
engine switch is turned to ON, or opera-
tion will stop when the driver’s door is opened.
WA R N I N G
■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.

●In the following situations, if the situation has changed (or the vehicle has been
driven for some time) and the normal operating conditions are detected, the mes- sage will disappear and the system will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
• When the temperature around t he radar sensor is outside of the operational range,
such as when the vehicle is in the sun or in an extremely cold environment
• When the front camera cannot detect objects in front of the vehicle, such as when driving in the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright lights are shining into the front
camera
SituationActions
When the area around a sensor is cov-
ered with dirt, moisture (fogged up, cov-
ered with condensation, ice, etc.), or
other foreign matter
To clean the part of the windshield in
front of the front camera, use the wind-
shield wipers or the windshield defogger
of the air conditioning system ( P.424,
429).
When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational
range, such as when the vehicle is in the
sun or in an extremely cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as after
the vehicle had been parked in the sun,
use the air conditi oning system to
decrease the temperature around the
front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle
was parked, depending on its type, the
sunlight reflected from the surface of the
sunshade may cause the temperature of
the front camera to become excessively
high.
If the front camera is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold
environment, use the air conditioning
system to increase the temperature
around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera is
obstructed, such as when the hood is
open or a sticker is attached to the part of
the windshield in front of the front cam-
era.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc.
to clear the obstruction.

■When washing the vehicle
Do not apply water to the inside of the
engine compartment. Doing so may cause the electrical components, etc.
to catch fire.
■When cleaning the windshield
(vehicles with rain-sensing wind-
shield wipers)
Set the wiper switch to off. If the wiper
switch is in “AUTO”, the wipers may
operate unexpectedly in the following situations, and may result in hands
being caught or other serious injuries
and cause damage to the wiper blades.
Off
AUTO
●When the upper part of the wind-
shield where the raindrop sensor is
located is touched by hand
●When a wet rag or similar is held close to the raindrop sensor
●If something bumps against the windshield
●If you directly touch the raindrop sensor body or if something bumps
into the raindrop sensor
■Precautions regarding the
exhaust pipe
Exhaust gasses cause the exhaust pipe to become quite hot.
When washing the vehicle, be careful
not to touch the pipe until it has cooled sufficiently, as touching a hot
exhaust pipe can cause burns.
■Precaution regarding the rear
bumper with Blind Spot Monitor
(if equipped)
If the paint of the rear bumper is
chipped or scratche d, the system may
malfunction. If this occurs, consult with any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reli-
able repairer.
NOTICE
■To prevent paint deterioration and corrosion on the body and
components (aluminum wheels,
etc.)
●Wash the vehicle immediately in the
following cases:
• After driving near the sea coast
• After driving on salted roads
• If coal tar or tree sap is present on
the paint surface
• If dead insects, in sect droppings or
bird droppings are present on the
paint surface
• After driving in an area contami-
nated with soot, oily smoke, mine dust, iron powder or chemical sub-
stances

4627-1. Maintenance and care
NOTICE
• If the vehicle becomes heavily
soiled with dust or mud
• If liquids such as benzene and gas-
oline are spilled on the paint sur-
face
●If the paint is chipped or scratched,
have it repaired immediately.
●To prevent the wheels from corrod-
ing, remove any dirt and store in a
place with low humidity when stor- ing the wheels.
■Cleaning the exterior lights
●Wash carefully. Do not use organic
substances or scrub with a hard
brush. This may damage the surfaces 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 wind-shield wiper arms
When lifting the wiper arms away
from the windshield, pull the driver side wiper arm upward first, and
repeat for the passenger side. When
returning the wipers to their original position, do so from the passenger
side first.
■When using an automatic car
wash (vehicles with rain-sensing
windshield wipers)
Set the wiper switch to the off posi-
tion. If the wiper switch is in “AUTO”,
the wipers may operate and the wiper blades may be damaged.
■When using a high pressure car wash
●Vehicles with rear view monitor sys-
tem: When washing the vehicle, do not spray the camera or its sur-
rounding area directly with a high
pressure washer. Shock applied from high pressure water may
cause the device to not operate
normally.
●Do not bring the nozzle tip close to
boots (rubber or resin manufac- tured cover), connectors or the fol-
lowing parts. The parts may be
damaged if they come into contact with high-pressure water.
• Traction related parts
• Steering parts
• Suspension parts
•Brake parts
●Keep the cleaning nozzle at least
30 cm (11.9 in.) away from the vehi-
cles body. Otherwise resin section, such as moldings and bumpers,
may be deformed and damaged.
Also, do not continuously hold the nozzle in the same place.
●Do not spray the lower part of the windshield continuously. If water
enters the air c onditioning system
intake located near the lower part of the windshield, the air conditioning
system may not operate correctly.
