In order for these systems to be fully effective, follow the operation and maintenance guidelines below:F To obtain an even air distribution, take care not to obstruct the exterior air intake grilles located at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents and the air outlets, as well as the air extractor located at the rear.F Do not cover the sunshine sensor, located at the top of the windscreen; this is used for regulation of the air conditioning system.F Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes, once or twice a month to keep it in per fect working order.F Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly. We recommend the use of a combined passenger compartment filter. Thanks to its special active additive, it contributes to the purification of the air breathed by the occupants and the cleanliness of the passenger compartment (reduction of allergic symptoms, bad odours and greasy deposits).F To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, you are also advised to have it checked regularly as recommended in the maintenance and warranty guide.F If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Recommendations for heating, ventilation and air conditioning
If after an extended stop in sunshine, the interior temperature is very high, first ventilate the passenger compartment for a few moments.Put the air flow control at a setting high enough to quickly change the air in the passenger compartment.
The air conditioning system does not contain chlorine and does not present any danger to the ozone layer.
The condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water under the vehicle which is per fectly normal.
When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power and so improves the towing ability.
Stop & Start
The heating and air conditioning systems only work when the engine is running.To maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment, you can temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system.
For more information on Stop & Star t, refer to the corresponding section.
Air vents
To close a vent, move the control towards the outside of the vehicle. Slight resistance may be felt.

In good or rainy weather, both day and night, the front foglamps and the rear foglamps are prohibited. In these situations, the power of their beams may dazzle other drivers. They should only be used in fog or snow.In these weather conditions, it is your responsibility to switch on the foglamps and dipped headlamps manually as the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light.Do not forget to switch off the front foglamps and the rear foglamps when they are no longer needed.
Lighting left on audible signal
An audible signal when a front door is opened warns the driver that the vehicle's exterior lighting is on, with the ignition off and in manual lighting mode.In this case, switching off the lighting stops the audible signal.
Travelling abroad
If using your vehicle in a country that drives on the other side of the road, the headlamps must be adjusted to avoid dazzling on-coming drivers.Contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Dynamic stability control (DSC) and anti-slip regulation (ASR)
Activation
These systems are activated automatically each time the vehicle is started.As soon as they detect a problem of grip or trajectory, these systems act on the operation of the engine and brakes.
This is indicated by flashing of this warning lamp in the instrument panel.
Deactivation
In exceptional conditions (starting a vehicle which is bogged down, stuck in snow, on soft ground...), it may be advisable to deactivate the DSC system, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.But it is recommended that the system be reactivated as soon as possible.
Operating fault
Reactivation
F Press this button.
F Turn the knob to this position.
Or
The indicator lamp in the button or the knob
comes on: the DSC system no longer acts on the operation of the engine.
The system is reactivated automatically each time the ignition is switched back on or from 30 mph (50 km/h).However, below 30 mph (50 km/h) you can manually reactivate the system.
F Press this button.
Or
F Turn the knob to this position.
The indicator lamp in the button or the knob goes off.
The DSC system offers exceptional safety in normal driving, but this should not encourage the driver to take extra risks or drive at high speed.The correct operation of the system depends on observation of the manufacturer's recommendations regarding the wheels (tyres and rims), the braking components, the electronic components and the Toyota assembly and repair procedures.After an impact, have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
If this warning lamp comes on, accompanied by an audible signal and a message in the screen, this indicates a fault with the system.Contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to have the system checked.

Airbags
System designed to contribute towards improving the safety of the occupants (with the exception of the centre seat in rows 2 and 3, if so equipped) in the event of violent collisions. The airbags supplement the action of the seat belts fitted with force limiters.If a collision occurs, the electronic detectors record and analyse the front and side impacts sustained in the impact detection zones:- in the case of a serious impact, the airbags are deployed instantly and contribute towards better protection of the occupants of the vehicle (with the exception of the centre seat in rows 2 and 3, if so equipped); immediately after the impact, the airbags deflate rapidly so that they do not hinder visibility or the exit of the occupants,- in the case of a minor or rear impact or in certain roll-over conditions, the airbags may not be deployed; the seat belt alone contributes towards ensuring your protection in these situations.
The airbags do not operate when the ignition is switched off.
This equipment will only deploy once. If a second impact occurs (during the same or a subsequent accident), the airbag will not be deployed again.
Deployment of one or more of the airbags is accompanied by a slight emission of smoke and a noise, due to the activation of the pyrotechnic cartridge incorporated in the system.This smoke is not harmful, but sensitive individuals may experience slight irritation.The noise of detonation related to the
deployment of one or more airbags may result in a slight loss of hearing for a short time.
