4-1. Maintenance and care
■
Cleaning the inside of the rear window or left-side rear quarter window
Do not use glass cleaner to clean the rear window or left-side rear quarter
window, as this may cause damage to the rear window defogger heater
wires or print type antenna (if equipped). Use a cloth dampened with luke-
warm water to gently wipe the windows clean. Wipe the windows in strokes
running parallel to the heater wires or print type antenna (if equipped).
■
Caring for leather areas
Toyota recommends cleaning the interior of the vehicle at least twice a year
to maintain the quality of the vehicle's interior.
■
Shampooing the carpets
There are several commercial foaming-type cleaners available. Use a
sponge or brush to apply the foam. Rub in overlapping circles. Do not apply
water. Excellent results are obtained by keeping the carpet as dry as possi-
ble.
■
Seat belts
Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water using a cloth or sponge. Also
check the belts periodically for excessive wear, fraying or cuts.
CAUTION
■
Water in the vehicle
●
Do not splash or spill liquid in the vehicle.
Doing so may cause electrical components etc. to malfunction or catch
fire.
●
Do not get any of the SRS components or wiring in the vehicle interior wet.

Electrical malfunction may cause the airbags to deploy or not function
