centre in order to decide what rescue
measures are required. The data may include, for example, the current posi-
tion of the vehicle, if this can be deter-
mined.
Even if you can no longer hear the res-
cue coordination centre through the
loudspeakers, the rescue coordination
centre may still be able to hear you

This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
Regularly remove foreign bodies,
for example leaves, from the area
below the windscreen with the bon-
net raised.
Wash the vehicle frequently espe-
cially in winter. Very high levels of
dirt and road salt can cause dam-
age to the vehicle.Maximum temperature:
60°C/140°F.
Minimum distance to sensors,
cameras, seals: 30 cm, approxi-
mately 12 in.

■Safety note
■General
In a car wash, the vehicle must be
able to roll freely.
Roll or push the vehicle, see page
145.
Some car washes require you to
get out of the vehicle. It is not possi-
ble to lock the vehicle from the out-
side in selector lever position N. If an attempt is made to lock the vehi-
cle, a signal sounds.
Ensure that the remote control is
located in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state, see
page 45.
Do not rub wet headlights dry and
do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents.
Soak impurities such as insect resi-
dues with shampoo and wash off
with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do
not use an ice scraper.
After the vehicle has been washed,
briefly apply the brakes to dry them
otherwise braking effectiveness
may be temporarily reduced. The
heat generated by braking dries the
brake discs and brake pads and
protects them against corrosion.
Completely remove residues on the
windscreens to avoid affecting visi-
bility due to smearing, and to
reduce wiping noise and wiper
blade wear.
NOTICE
The vehicle can be damaged if auto-
matic washing bays or car washes
are used incorrectly. There is a dan-
ger of damage to property. Observe
the following notes:
●Textile car washes or systems
using soft brushes are preferable,
to avoid damage to the paintwork.
●Avoid washing bays or car washes
with guide rails higher than 10 cm,
4 in, to avoid damage to the body.
●Note the maximum tyre width of the
guide rail to avoid damage to tyres
and rims.
●Fold in the exterior mirrors to avoid
damaging them.
●Deactivate the wipers and the rain
sensor (if fitted) to avoid damage to
the wiper system.

Regular care promotes driving
safety and preserves your vehicle's
value. Environmental effects in
areas with high air pollution or natu-
ral contaminants, for example tree
resin or pollen, may have an effect
on the vehicle paintwork. Base the
frequency and extent of vehicle
care on such factors.
Immediately remove aggressive
substances, for example spilled
fuel, oil, grease or bird droppings so
as to prevent damage and discol-
ouration of the paintwork.

bumpers carried out by any author-
ized Toyota retailer or Toyota author-
