■

When washing the vehicle

Do not apply water to the inside of

the engine compartment. Doing

so may cause the electrical com-

ponents, etc. to catch fire.

■

Precautions regarding the

exhaust pipe

Exhaust gasses cause the

exhaust pipe to become quite hot.

When washing the vehicle, be

careful not to touch the pipe until it

has cooled sufficiently, as touch-

ing a hot exhaust pipe can cause

burns.

■

Precaution regarding the rear

bumper with Blind Spot Moni-

tor (if equipped)

If the paint of the rear bumper is

chipped or scratched, the system

may malfunction. If this occurs,

consult your Toyota dealer.

• After driving on salted roads

• If coal tar or tree sap is present

on the paint surface

• If dead insects, insect droppings

or bird droppings are present on

the paint surface

• After driving in an area contami-

nated with soot, oily smoke,

mine dust, iron powder or chem-

ical substances

• If the vehicle becomes heavily

soiled with dust or mud

• If liquids such as benzene and

gasoline are spilled on the paint

surface

●

If the paint is chipped or

scratched, have it repaired

immediately.

●
