WARNING
■Front camera installation area
on the windshield
If the system determines that the
windshield may be fogged up, it
will automatically operate the
heater to defog the part of the
windshield around the front cam-
era. When cleaning, etc., be care-
ful not to touch the area around
the front camera until the wind-
shield has cooled sufficiently, as
touching it may cause burns.

3066-1. Maintenance and care
Remove dirt using a
water-dampened soft cloth or
synthetic chamois.
 Wipe the surface with a dry,
soft cloth to remove any
remaining moisture.
■Cleaning the areas with
satin-finish metal accents
The metal areas use a layer of real
metal for the surface. It is necessary
to clean them regularly. If dirty areas
are left uncleaned for long periods
of time, they may be difficult to
clean.
 Remove dirt and dust using a
vacuum cleaner.
 Wipe off any excess dirt and
dust with a soft cloth damp-
ened with diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of
approximately 5% neutral wool
NOTICE
• Seats: Alkaline or acidic solu-
tions, such as thinner, benzene,
and alcohol
• Steering wheel: Organic sub- stances, such as thinner, and
cleaner that contains alcohol
●Do not use polish wax or polish
cleaner. The instrument panel’s
or other interior part’s painted
surface may be damaged.
■Preventing damage to leather
surfaces
Observe the following precautions
to avoid damage to and deteriora-
tion of leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from
leather surfaces immediately.
●Do not expose the vehicle to
direct sunlight for extended peri-
ods of time. Park the vehicle in
the shade, especially during
summer.
●Do not place items made of
vinyl, plastic, or containing wax
on the upholstery, as they may
stick to the leather surface if the
vehicle interior heats up signifi-
cantly.
■Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with
water.
Vehicle systems such as the
audio system may be damaged if
water comes into contact with
electrical components such as the
audio system above or under the
floor of the vehicle. Water may
also cause the body to rust.
■When cleaning the inside of
the windshield
Do not allow glass cleaner to con-
tact the lens. Also, do not touch
the lens. (
P.202)
■Cleaning the inside of the rear
window
●Do not use glass cleaner to
clean the rear window, as this
may cause damage to the rear
window defogger heater wires
or antenna. Use a cloth damp-
ened with lukewarm water to
gently wipe the window clean.
Wipe the window in strokes run-
ning parallel to the heater wires
or antenna.
●Be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires or
antenna.

Maintenance and care
■Bulbs that need to be
replaced by your Toyota
dealer
 Headlights/daytime running
lights
 Parking lights
 Front turn signal lights
 Front side marker lights
 LED accent lights (if
equipped)
 Side turn signal lights (if
equipped)
 Tail lights
 Stop lights
 Rear side marker lights (LED
type)
 High mounted stoplight
 License plate lights
■LED light bulbs
The lights other than the rear turn
signal lights, rear side marker lights
(bulb type) and back-up lights con-
sist of a number of LEDs. If any of
the LEDs burn out, take your vehicle
to your Toyota dealer to have the
light replaced.
■Condensation build-up on the
inside of the lens
In certain situatio ns, such as when
driving in the rain or when washing
the vehicle, condensation may form
on the inner side of the headlight
lens and other li ghts. As each light
has a ventilation hole, moist air may
enter. If the ambient temperature is
low, condensation may form tempo-
rarily, but it will di ssipate as the
inside of the light i s warmed up. As
the condensation is due to a phe-
nomenon similar to windows fogging
in the rain, it doe s not indicate a malfunction.
Contact your Toyota dealer for more
information in t
he following situa-
tions:
●Large drops of water have built up
on the inside of the lens.
●Water has built up inside the
headlight.
■When replacing light bulbs
 P.355
■Rear turn signal lights and
rear side marker lights
(vehicles with blub type
rear side marker lights)
1 Open the trunk lid.
2 Insert a flathead screwdriver
between the cover and the
light assembly and pry up the
cover to disengage the claws
(indicated by a dotted line).
To prevent scratching the vehicle,
wrap the tip of th e flathead screw-
driver with a cloth, etc.

after the vehicle is parked in the
sun, use the air conditioning sys-
tem 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
