●Use Wi-Fi® devices only when
safe and legal to do so.
●Your audio unit is fitted with
Wi-Fi® antennas. People with
implantable cardiac pacemak-
ers, cardiac resynchronization
therapy-pacemakers or implant-
able cardioverter defibrillators
should maintain a reasonable
distance between themselves
and the Wi-Fi
® antennas. The
radio waves may affect the
operation of such devices.
●Before using Wi-Fi® devices,
users of any electrical medical
device other than implantable
cardiac pacemakers, cardiac
resynchronization ther-
apy-pacemakers or implantable
cardioverter defib rillators should
consult the manufacturer of the
device for information about its
operation under the influence of
radio waves. Radio waves could
have unexpected e ffects on the
operation of such medical
devices.

●Exposure to radio frequency sig-
nals:
The Toyota audio multimedia sys-
tem installed in your vehicle
includes a low power radio trans-
mitter and receiver. The system
receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals.
●In August 1996, the Federal Com-
munications Commission (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for mobile wire-
less phones. Those guidelines are
consistent with the safety stan-
dards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bod-
ies.
• ANSI (American National Stan-
dards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
• NCRP (National Council on Radi- ation Protection and Measure-
ment) Report 86 [1986]
• ICNIRP (Intern ational Commis-
sion on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection) [1996]
●These standards are based on
comprehensive and periodic eval-
uations of the relevant scientific lit-
erature. Over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from
universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed
the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard
(C95.1).
●The design of Toyota audio multi-
media system co
mplies with the
FCC guidelines in addition to
those standards.
●Contact with the Toyota response
center is dependent upon the
telematics device being in opera-
tive condition, cellular connection
availability, navigation map data,
and GPS satellite signal recep-
tion, which can lim it the ability to
reach the Toyota response center
or receive support. Enrollment and
Telematics Subscription Service
Agreement required. A variety of
subscription terms are available;
charges vary by subscription term
selected.
●The Toyota response center offers
support in multiple languages.

scribed vehicles are capable of

tion. Please see the terms and
