WARNING

Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.

Use tires of the size specified.

Maintain the recommended level of air pressure.

Do not drive in excess of 75 mph (120 km/h), regardless of the type of
snow tires being used.

Use snow tires on all, not just some wheels.

Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely,
and may cause death or serious injury.

Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being
used, or 30 mph (50 km/h), whichever is lower.

Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.

Avoid sudden acceleration, abrupt steering, sudden braking and shifting
operations that cause sudden engine braking.

Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.

NOTICE

Repairing or replacing snow tires
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 opera-
tion of the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.

Fitting tire chains
The tire pressure warning valves and transmitters may not function correctly
when tire chains are fitted

flow and temperature up.

To return to the previous mode, press

again when the windshield

is defogged.

Defogging the rear window and outside rear view mirrors

Using automatic mode
Fan speed is adjusted automatically according to the temperature setting and
the ambient conditions.
Therefore, the fan may stop for a while until warm or cool air is ready to flow

immediately after

is pressed.

Fogging up of the windows

The windows will easily fog up when the humidity in the vehicle is high.

Turning

on will dehumidify the 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 recirculated air mode is used.

Outside/recirculated air mode

When driving on dusty roads, in tunnels, or in heavy traffic set the outside/
recirculated air mode button to the recirculated air mode. This is effective in
preventing outside air from entering the vehicle interior. During cooling oper-
ation, setting the recirculated air mode will also cool the vehicle interior
effectively.

Outside/recirculated air mode may automatically switch depending on the
temperature setting or the inside temperature.

Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode

In Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to pri-
oritize fuel efficiency:
• Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict heating/

cooling capacity

• Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected

To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations:
• Adjust the fan speed
• Adjust the temperature setting
• Turn off Eco drive mode

Even when the drive mode is set to Eco drive mode, the air conditioning eco

mode can be turned off by pressing

.

5-1. Using the air conditioning system and defogger

When the outside temperature exceeds 75°F (24°C) and the air condition-
ing system is on

In order to reduce the air conditioning power consumption, the air condition-
ing system may switch to recirculated air mode automatically. This may also
reduce fuel consumption.

Recirculated air mode is selected as a default mode when the engine switch
is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without a smart key system) or
IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with a smart key system).

It is possible to switch to outside air mode at any time by pressing

.

When the outside temperature falls to nearly 32

F (0C)

The dehumidification function may not operate even when

is pressed.

Ventilation and air conditioning odors

To let fresh air in, set the air conditioning system to the outside air mode.

During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause odor to
be emitted from the vents.

To reduce potential odors from occurring:
• It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air

mode prior to turning the vehicle off.

• The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short period of time

immediately after the air conditioning system is started in automatic
mode.

WARNING

To prevent the windshield from fogging up

Do not use

during cool air operation in extremely humid weather.

The difference between the temperature of the outside air and that of the
windshield can cause the outer surface of the windshield to fog up, block-
ing your vision.

To prevent burns

Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces when the outside rear view mir-
ror defoggers are on.

Do not touch the glass at the lower part of the windshield or to the side of
the front pillars when the windshield wiper de-icer is on.

NOTICE

To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the air conditioning system on longer than necessary when the
engine is stopped.

Do not place anything on the instrument
panel which may cover the air outlets.
Otherwise, air flow may be obstructed,
preventing the windshield defoggers
from defogging.
