RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
⬛When the high-pitch short beeps sound 3 times repeatedly and the front
corner sensor or reverse sensor ON indicator appears at 2 front locations
or 2 rear locations (or all 4 locations) simultaneously
⚫The front corner sensor or reverse se nsor functionality has been degraded.
When the front corner sensor or re verse sensor functionality temporarily
turns off, check if the sonar is not cove red with rain, snow, ice, or dirt. Remove
those attached to it, then wait for the f unctionality to be restored to normal.
⚫If the master warning light turns on at this time, it may indicate a malfunc-
tion of the system. Have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer.
⚫Vehicles with TFT color multi-informati on display: Depending on the condi-
tions, the warning messages as “Son ar Sensor Function Stop” and “Sonar
Sensor Malfunction Visit Your Dealer” will be displayed.
⬛Front corner sensors and reverse sensors
In the following cases, the system ma y become activated even when there is
no obstacle within the operating range.
⚫When driving an area where the road slopes suddenly change
⚫When passing through plastic curtains or driving under flags
⚫When water splashes or drifting snow whirls up
⚫When passing an obstacle at close range
⚫When using an elevator for automobiles or using a mechanical parking lot
⚫When driving over a bump with an obstacle near the vehicle
⚫When there is an obstacle near the side of the vehicle
⚫When the road surface has large bumps, curbstones or protrusions, or when
the ground surface has tire tracks and holes
⚫When entering into a tight space
⚫During pouring rain or when water splashes over the vehicle
⚫Bad weather (heavy rain, snowstorm, fog, etc.)
⚫When the following is present near the vehicle: the sound of other vehicles’
horns, motorcycle engines, and air brakes of large vehicles, the devices emitting
ultrasonic waves, such as vehicle detect ors, or sonar systems of other vehicles

minated number plate, radio antenna) are installed near the sonar sensors
⚫When the vehicle body has been considerably tilted
⚫When the vehicle height has significantly changed by the load conditions, etc.

Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before driving
the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a manner appropri-
ate to the prevailing weather conditions.Preparation for winter
⚫Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside temperatures.
⦁ Engine oil
⦁ Coolant
⦁ Washer fluid
⚫Have a service technician inspec t the condition of the battery.
Before driving
Perform the following according to the driving conditions:
⚫Do not try to forcibly open a window or move a windshield wiper that is
frozen. Pour warm water over the frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe away
the water immediately to prevent it from freezing.
⚫To ensure proper operation of the air conditioning system fan, remove
any snow that has accumulated on the air inlet vents in front of the
windshield.
⚫Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accumu-
lated on the exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, around the tires or on the
brakes.
⚫Look under the vehicle and check that there are no ice blocks around
the ground. Remove any attached ice blocks with great care to avoid
damaging vehicle components. Also check that the pedals and steering
wheel move smoothly.
⚫Remove any snow or mud from the bottom of your shoes before getting
in the vehicle.

2424-6. Driving tips
RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
◆Performing idling stops
⚫Avoid unnecessary idling. Stop the engine when parking the vehicle to
reduce excessive fuel consumption, even it is only for a short period of
time.
⚫Except in severe environment, such as when the outside temperature is
extremely low, warming up the engine before driving is unnecessary.
Rather than idling, it is more efficient to drive the vehicle gently to warm
up each part while avoiding increasing the engine revolutions unneces-
sarily and accelerating or decelerating suddenly.
◆Luggage
Carrying heavy luggage will lead to poor fuel economy. Avoid carrying
unnecessary luggage. Installing a large roof rack will also cause poor fuel
economy.
◆Regular maintenance
⚫Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Improper tire
inflation pressure can cause poor fu el economy. Also, as snow tires can
cause large amounts of friction, thei r use on dry roads can lead to poor
fuel economy. Use tires that are appropriate for the season and road
conditions.
⚫Use oil and fluid of the recommended quality, which affect fuel con-
sumption and the life of the vehicle. Also, check oil and fluid periodically.

Check that the lids are closed.
⚫If charging stops temporarily when th e engine restarts, the battery may be
deteriorated. In that case, contact your Toyota dealer.
⚫Depending on the devices connected, charging may occasionally be sus-
pended and then start again. This is not a malfunction.
⬛Operating conditions

⬛Situations where the USB ports may not work properly
⚫If a device requiring more than the maximum rating is connected
⦁ Charging may not be possible due to protection features.
⦁ Even if charging starts, it may ta ke long time to be completed.
⚫If the temperature inside the vehicle is high, such as immediately after the
vehicle has been parked in the hot sun
⦁ By using the air conditioning system or other means, ventilate the vehicle
and decrease the temperature inside it. After a while, start charging.
⦁ If charging is performed in a high temperature environment, it may be
automatically stopped by the temperature sensor.
WARNING
⚫Inserting fingers or foreign matter such as metals and liquid into the USB
ports may cause damage, a short circuit, or electric shock.
⚫Be careful not to trip over the cables co nnected. This may cause damage to the
device or injury due to falling.
NOTICE

Do-it-yourself maintenance
⚫What about do-it-yourself maintenance?
Many of the maintenance items are easy to do yourself if you have a little mechanical
ability and a few basic automotive tools. Simple instructions for how to perform them
are presented in this section.
Note, however, that some maintenance task s require special tools and skills. These
are best performed by qualified technician s. Even if you are an experienced do-it-
yourself mechanic, we recommend that repairs and maintenance be conducted by
your Toyota dealer who will keep a record of maintenance on your vehicle. This
record could be helpful should you ever require Warranty Service.
⬛Does your vehicle need repairs?
Be on the alert for changes in performance and sounds, and visual tip-offs that
indicate service is needed. Some important clues are:
⚫Engine misses, stumbling or pinging
⚫Appreciable loss of power
⚫Strange engine noises
⚫A fluid leak under the vehicle (However , water dripping from the air condi-
tioning system after use is normal.)
⚫Change in exhaust sound (This may indica te a dangerous carbon monoxide leak.
Drive with the windows open and have th e exhaust system checked immediately.)
⚫Flat-looking tires, excessive tire squeal when cornering, uneven tire wear
⚫Vehicle pulls to one side when driven straight on a level road
⚫Strange noises related to suspension movement
⚫Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal or clutch pedal (vehi-
cles with a manual transmission), pe dal almost touches the floor, vehicle
pulls to one side when braking
⚫Engine coolant temperature continually higher than normal
If you notice any of these clues, take yo ur vehicle to your Toyota dealer as soon
as possible. Your vehicle may need adjustment or repair.
WARNING
⬛If your vehicle is not properly maintained
Improper maintenance could result in serious damage to the vehicle and pos-
sible death or serious injury.
⬛Handling of the battery
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead com-
pounds which are known to cause brain damage. Wash your hands after han-
dling. ( ➞P. 321)
