WARNI NG
Prolonged use of heated seats is not recommended for those with sensitive skin.There is a risk of burns for people whose perception of heat is impaired (illness, taking medication, etc.).To keep the heated pad intact and to prevent a short circuit:
– Do not place heavy or sharp objects on the seat.– Do not kneel or stand on the seat.– Do not spill liquids onto the seat.– Never use the heating function if the seat is wet.
EC O
Do not use the function when the seat is not occupied.Reduce the heating intensity as soon as possible.When the seat and passenger compartment have reached a satisfactory temperature, switch the function off; reducing electricity consumption in turn decreases fuel consumption.

WARNI NG
When stowing the table tops, never place your hand inside the slide area - risk of trapping your fingers! Use the handle provided.
Heating and Ventilation
Advice
NOTIC E
Using the ventilation and air conditioning system► To ensure that air is distributed evenly, keep the external air intake grilles at the base of the windscreen, the nozzles, the vents, the air outlets and the air extractor in the boot free from obstructions.► Do not cover the sunshine sensor located on the dashboard; this sensor is used to regulate the automatic air conditioning system.► Operate the air conditioning system for at least 5 to 10 minutes once or twice a month to keep it in perfect working order.► If the system does not produce cold air, switch it off and contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.When towing the maximum load on a steep gradient in high temperatures, switching off the air conditioning increases the available engine power, enhancing the towing capacity.
WARNI NG
Avoid driving for too long with the ventilation off or with prolonged operation of interior air recirculation. Risk of misting and deterioration of the air quality!
If the interior temperature is very high after the vehicle has stood for a long time in the sunshine, air 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.
NOTIC E
Condensation created by the air conditioning results in a discharge of water underneath the vehicle. This is perfectly normal.

NOTIC E
Servicing the ventilation and air conditioning system► Ensure that the passenger compartment filter is in good condition and have the filter elements replaced regularly.We recommend using a composite passenger compartment filter. Its specific active additive
helps protect against polluting gases and bad smells.► To ensure correct operation of the air conditioning system, have it checked according to the recommendations in the Manufacturer's service schedule.


Contains R134A fluorinated greenhouse gasesDepending on version and country of sale, the air conditioning system may contain R134A fluorinated greenhouse gases.Gas capacity 0.5 kg (+/- 0.025 kg), GWP index 1430 (CO2 equivalent: 0.715 t).
NOTIC E
Stop & StartThe heating and air conditioning systems only operate when the engine is running.Temporarily deactivate the Stop & Start system to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment.For more information on the Stop & Start,
refer to the corresponding section.
NOTIC E

If you set the air flow control to the minimum position (off), the temperature in the vehicle will no longer be controlled. A slight air flow can still be felt however, resulting from the forward movement of the vehicle.
Temperature
► Turn the thumbwheel 1 from "LO" (cold) to "HI" (hot) to adjust the temperature to your requirements.
Air distribution
► Pressing button 3 successively directs the air flow towards:– windscreen, side windows and footwells, – footwells,– central vents, side vents and footwells,– windscreen, side windows, central vents, side vents and footwells,– central and side vents, – windscreen and side windows (demisting or defrosting).
Air conditioning
With the engine running, the air conditioning is designed to operate effectively in all seasons, with the windows closed.It enables you to:– lower the temperature in summer,– enhance the effectiveness of the demisting function in winter, above 3°C.
On/Off
► Press button 5 to activate/deactivate the air conditioning system.When the air conditioning is in operation, to cool the air more quickly, you can use interior air recirculation for a few moments by pressing button 4. Then restore the intake of exterior air.
NOTIC E
The air conditioning does not operate when the air flow adjustment is set to off.

NOTIC E
When the engine is cold, the air flow will only increase to its optimum level gradually, to avoid distributing too much cold air.In cold weather, it prioritises the distribution of warm air to the windscreen, the side windows and the footwells only.
Manual mode
It is possible to make a different choice from that offered by the system by changing a setting. The other functions will still be managed automatically.As soon as a setting is changed, the "AUTO" symbol disappears.
Deactivating the system
► Press button 2 "-" until the fan symbol disappears.This disables all functions of the dual-zone automatic air conditioning system.The temperature is no longer regulated. A slight flow of air can still be felt, due to the forward movement of the vehicle.► Press button 2 "+" to switch the system on again.
Temperature
The driver and front passenger can each set the temperature to suit their preferences.The value shown on the display is a level of comfort, not a temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.► Push button 1 down to decrease the value or up to increase it.
NOTIC E
A setting of around 21 provides optimum comfort. Depending on your requirements, a setting between 18 and 24 is normal.In addition, we recommend avoiding left/right setting differences of more than 3.
NOTIC E
On entering the vehicle, if the interior temperature is significantly colder or warmer than the comfort value setting, there is no need to alter the value displayed in order to reach the required level of comfort. The system compensates automatically and corrects the temperature difference as quickly as possible.
NOTIC E
For maximum cooling or heating of the passenger compartment, it is possible to exceed the minimum value 14 or the maximum value 28.► Push button 1 down until "LO" is displayed or up until "HI" is displayed.
"Mono" function
The comfort setting for the passenger side can be indexed to the driver's comfort setting (mono-zone).
► Press the corresponding button 8 to activate/deactivate the function.The indicator lamp in the button comes on when the function is activated.The function is deactivated automatically if a passenger uses the temperature control.

Air flow
► Press the buttons 2 to increase/decrease the air flow.The air flow symbol (a fan) appears. It is filled in or emptied gradually, according to the value set.
Interior air recirculation
The intake of exterior air prevents the formation
of mist on the windscreen and side windows.Recirculating the interior air isolates the passenger compartment from outside odours and fumes and allows the desired passenger compartment temperature to be achieved more rapidly.► Press this button to activate/deactivate the function (confirmed by the illumination/extinction of the indicator lamp).
