WARNING
⬛To use the BSM function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The BSM function is an auxilia ry system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that has entere d or is rapidly approaching toward the
blind spot area of the outside rear view mirrors. Since this system alone is not
sufficient for determining the feasibility of changing lanes, overly relying on the
system could lead to an unforeseen accid ent, resulting in serious injury or
death.
This system does not work effectively depending on the circumstances. The
driver is responsible for checking the safety around the vehicle by using his/
her own eyes and the mirrors.
⬛To use the RCTA function safely
The driver is responsible for driving the vehicle safely. It is th e driver’s responsi-
bility to be aware of the situations around the vehicle and drive safely.
The RCTA function is an auxiliary system designed to let the driver know of the
presence of a vehicle that is approaching from the right or left rear of the vehi-
cle.
Even with the RCTA function enabled, this system does not work effectively
depending on the circumstances. The dr iver is responsible for checking the
safety around the vehicle by using his/her own eyes.
Overly relying on the system could lead to an unforeseen accident, resulting in
serious injury or death.

WARNING
⬛Rear-view camera
Failure to observe the following may cause death or serious injury.
⚫Do not overly rely on the rear-view camera. Just as when you drive a vehicle
without the rear-view camera, make su re to check the safety around and
behind your vehicle and drive carefully. Be particularly careful not to collide
with the parked vehicles nearby, obstacles, or people.
⚫When you back up, make sure to check the safety around and behind your
vehicle and drive carefully.
⚫Never drive the vehicle while looking at the screen only.
The image displayed on the screen ma y be different from the actual situa-
tion. Note that the projection range of the camera is limited. Never back up
while looking at the screen only. Doing so could get your vehicle hit or lead
to an unforeseen accident. Be sure to confirm the safety around by visually
checking the surroundings with your ey es or using the inside rear view mir-
ror and the outside rear view mirrors before driving.
⚫Never use it in the situations listed below.
⦁ Frozen, slippery or snowy roads
⦁ When tire chains or spare tires are used
⦁ When the back door is not closed fully
⦁ On a non-flat road surface such as slopes
⚫If the outside temperature is low, the screen may be come dark and the
image may become blurry. Especially since the moving objects may appear
blurred or disappear from the screen, always check the safety around you
directly with your eyes while driving.

2404-6. Driving tips
RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
WARNING
⬛When the brakes freeze
If normal braking is not restored, have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer immediately.
⬛Caution when parking
When parking without applying the parking brake, be sure to use wheel
chocks. Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehicle to
move unexpectedly, possibly leading to an unforeseen accident.
NOTICE
⬛When removing ice from the windshield and windows
Do not hit and break the ice.
The glass may crack.
⬛When the doors, windshield wipers, windshield, or windows freeze
⚫Thaw the ice by applying lukewarm water.
Hot water may damage or deform components.
⚫If the windshield wipers, outside rear view mirrors, or windows are forcibly
activated while frozen or when snow is strongly attached, the wiper rubber
may be damaged or the motor may break.
⬛Repairing or replacing snow tires (veh icles with the tire pressure warning
system)
Request repairs or replacement of snow tires from Toyota dealers or legiti-
mate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the operation
of the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
⬛Fitting tire chains (vehicles with the tire pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly
when tire chains are fitted.

harm your vehicle’s paint.
⚫Depending on the car wash, the vehic le gets scratched or damaged, or it
may not be possible to wash the car, as the rear spoiler gets stuck.
⬛High pressure car washes
