WARNING
⬛Caution while driving
For safety reasons, do not operate the display change button or the clock
adjustment switch while driving. Doing so is dangerous and may lead to an
accident such as incorrect op eration of the steering wheel.
Stop the vehicle to operate it. While drivin g, keep the time that you look at the
display to the minimum necessary.
⬛When changing settings
As the engine needs to be running duri ng setting up the display, ensure that
the vehicle is parked in a place with adeq uate ventilation. In a closed area such
as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may col-
lect and enter the vehicle. This may cau se death or a serious health hazard.
NOTICE
⬛Screen display at low temperatures
When the display screen temperature is extremely low, the display changes
may be delayed. Allow the interior of th e vehicle to warm up before using it.
⬛When changing display settings
Make sure that the engine is running, as otherwise the battery may discharge.
⬛About cruising distance
Even if the value indicated for cruising distance seems sufficient, try to fill the
fuel tank when the fuel gauge nears “E”, or the low fuel level warning light
turns on.

4-6. Driving tips
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.

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.

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.

⬛Using the air conditioning system for cooling
In rare cases, it may appear that fog is blowing out of the air outlet, but this is
normal when moist air is suddenly cooled.
⬛Fogging up of the windows
⚫The windows will easily fog up when th e humidity in the vehicle is high.
Turning on will flow the dehumi dified air from the outlets and
defog the windshield effectively.
⚫If you turn off, the windows may fog up more easily.
⚫The windows may fog up if the re circulated air mode is used.
⬛When the air outlets are set to
In order to deliver cool air to the f ace and warm air to the feet, depending on
the position of the temperature control lever, the air sent to the feet will be
warmer than the air sent to the upper body.
⬛When the outside air temperature drops to around 0°C
Even if you press , the air conditioning system may not work.
⬛When driving on dusty roads
Close all windows. If dust thrown up by the vehicle is still drawn into the vehicle
after closing the windows, it is recomme nded that the air intake mode be set
to outside air mode and the fan speed to any setting except off.
⬛Outside/recirculated air mode
Setting to the recirculated air mode temporarily is recommended in prevent-
ing dirty air from entering the vehicle interior and helping to cool the vehicle
when the outside air temperature is high.

tion.
b Inside air temperature sensor
Detects the temperature of inside
air.
If an object is placed on the solar radiation sensor, or the inside air tempera-
ture sensor is covered up with stickers or the like, these sensors may not work
properly.
