Driving
5Increases the rain-sensing wind-
shield wiper sensitivity
6 Decreases the rain-sensing
windshield wiper sensitivity
7 Washer/wiper dual oper-
ation
Pulling the lever operates the wipers
and washer.
Wipers will automatically operate a cou-
ple of times after the washer squirts.
■The windshield wiper and washer can be operated when
The engine switch is in ON.
■Effects of vehicle speed on wiper operation (vehicles with rain-sens-ing windshield wipers)
Vehicle speed affects the Intermittent wiper interval.
■Raindrop sensor (vehicles with rain-sensing windshield wipers)
●The raindrop sensor judges the amount of raindrops.
An optical sensor is adopted. It may
not operate properly when sunlight from the rising or setting of the sun intermittently strikes the windshield, or
if bugs etc. are present on the wind- shield.
●If the wiper is turned to AUTO mode while the engine switch is in ON, the wipers will operate once to show that
AUTO mode is activated.
●If the temperature of the raindrop sen-
sor is 85°C (185°F) or higher, or -15°C (5°F) or lower, automatic operation may not occur. In this case, operate
the wipers in any mode other than AUTO mode.
■If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the windshield washer fluid reservoir.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of windshield wipers in AUTO mode (vehicles with rain-sensing wind-
shield wipers)
The windshield wipers may operate unexpectedly if the sensor is touched
or the windshield is subject to vibra- tion in AUTO mode. Take care that your fingers or anything else do not
become caught in the windshield wip- ers.

Operating the switch oper-
ates the rear wiper as follows:
1 Intermittent window wiper
operation
2 Normal window wiper oper-
ation
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer fluid until the windshield becomes warm. The fluid may freeze on the
windshield and cause low visibility. This may lead to an accident, result-ing in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When there is no washer fluid spray from the nozzle
Damage to the washer fluid pump
may be caused if the lever is pulled toward you and held continually.
■When a nozzle becomes blocked
In this case, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer. Do not try to clear it with a pin or other object. The nozzle will be damaged.
Rear window wiper and
washer*
Operating the lever can use the
rear window wiper or the
washer.
NOTICE
■When the rear window is dry
Do not use the wiper, as it may dam- age the rear window.

●In the following situations, perform the actions specified in the table. When the nor-
mal operating conditions are detected, the message will disappear and the system

When the area around a camera is cov-
ered with dirt, moisture (fogged up, cov-
ered with condensation, ice, etc.), or
other foreign matterUsing the wiper and A/C function,
remove the dirt and other attached mat-
ter. (→P.280, 285).
When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational
range, such as when the vehicle is in the
sun or in an extremely cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as after
the vehicle had been parked in the sun,
use the air conditioning system to
decrease the temperature around the
front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle
was parked, depending on its type, the
sunlight reflected from the surface of the
sunshade may cause the temperature of
the front camera to become excessively
high.
If the front camera is cold, such after the
vehicle is parked in an extremely cold
environment, use the air conditioning
system to increase the temperature
around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera is
obstructed, such as when the hood is
open or a sticker is attached to the part of
the windshield in front of the front cam-
era.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc.,
to clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collision System Radar In
Self Calibration Unavailable See
Owner’s Manual” is displayed.Check whether there is attached materi-
als on the radar and radar cover, and if
there is, remove it.
