BASIC FUNCTIONS

When your vehicle is receiving signals from
the satellites, the GPSº mark appears at the
top left of the screen.
The GPS signal may be physically ob-
structed, leading to inaccurate vehicle posi-
tion on the map display. Tunnels, tall build-
ings, trucks, or even the placement of objects
on the instrument panel may obstruct the
GPS signals.
The installation of window tinting may also ob-
struct the GPS signals. Most window tinting
contains some metallic content that will inter-
fere with the GPS signal reception. We ad-
vice against the use of window tinting on ve-
hicles equipped with navigation systems.
The GPS satellites may not send signals due
to repairs or improvements being made to
them.Even when the navigation system is receiving
clear GPS signals, the vehicle position may
not be shown accurately or inappropriate
route guidance may occur in some cases.
(a) Accurate current vehicle
position may not be shown in
the following cases:

When driving on a small angled Y-shaped
road.

When driving on a winding road.

When driving on a slippery road such as
in sand, gravel, snow, etc.

When driving on a long straight road.

When freeway and surface streets run in
parallel.

After moving by ferry or vehicle carrier.

When a long route is searched during high
speed driving.

When driving without setting the current
position calibration correctly.

After repeating a change of direction by
going forward and backward, or turning on
a turntable in the parking lot.

When leaving a covered parking lot or
parking garage.

When a roof carrier is installed.

When driving with tire chains installed.

When the tires are worn.

After replacing a tire or tires.

When using tires that are smaller or larger
than the factory specifications.

The brake pad wear limit indicators on
your disc brakes give a warning noise
when the brake pads are worn to where
replacement is required.
If you hear a squealing or scraping noise
while driving, have the brake pads
checked and replaced by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. Expensive ro-
tor damage can result if the pads are not
replaced when necessary.The vehicle identification number (VIN)
is the legal identifier for your vehicle.
This number is on the left top of the
instrument panel, and can be seen
through the windshield from outside.
This is the primary identification number
for your Toyota. It is used in registering
the ownership of your vehicle.The vehicle identification number (VIN) is
also on the Certification Regulation Label.

When stowing cargo and luggage in
the vehicle, observe the following:

Put cargo and luggage in the lug-
gage compartment when at all
possible. Be sure all items are se-
cured in place.

Be careful to keep the vehicle bal-
anced. Locating the weight as far
forward as possible helps maintain
balance.

For better fuel economy, do not
carry unneeded weight.CAUTION

To prevent cargo and luggage
from sliding forward during
braking, do not stack anything
in the luggage compartment
higher than the seatbacks.
Keep cargo and luggage low,
as close to the floor as pos-
sible.

Never allow anyone to ride in
the luggage compartment. It is
not designed for passengers.
They should ride in their seats
with their seat belts properly
fastened. Otherwise, they are
much more likely suffer seri-
ous bodily injury, in the event
of sudden braking or a colli-
sion.

Do not place anything on the
f l at t en ed seat , or it may sl i d e
forward during braking.

Do not place anything on the
luggage cover. Such items may
be thrown about and possibly
injure people in the vehicle
during sudden braking or an
accident. Secure all items in a
safe place.

Do not drive with objects left
on top of the instrument panel.
They may interfere with the
driver's field of view. Or they
may move during sharp vehicle
acceleration or turning, and im-
pair the driver's control of the
vehicle. In an accident they
may injure the vehicle occu-
pants.

Do not put objects in the con-
tainer which can shift, roll out
or be thrown out in the event
of sudden stops or accidents.
Objects which come out of the
container can create a safety
hazard due to interference with
pedal operation or driver dis-
traction.

Carpets
Use a good foam- type shampoo to
clean the carpets.
Begin by vacuuming thoroughly to remove
as much dirt as possible. Several types of
foam cleaners are available; some are in
aerosol cans and others are powders or
liquids which you mix with water to pro-
duce a foam. To shampoo the carpets,
use a sponge or brush to apply the foam.
Rub in overlapping circles.
Do not apply waterÐthe best results are
obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as
possible. Read the shampoo instructions
and follow them closely.
Seat belts
The seat belts may be cleaned with
mild soap and water or with lukewarm
water.
Use a cloth or sponge. As you are clean-
ing, check the belts for excessive wear,
fraying, or cuts.

belts
Ðit may weaken them.

Do not use the belts until they be-
come dry.

window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires or connec-
tors.
Air conditioning control panel, audio
