● Do not use devices such as the
following when driving:
• Devices which cannot be prop-
erly secured within the vehicle.
• Devices which may distract the
driver and be a hindrance to
safe driving, such as a TV, DVD
player, etc.
• Unsecured devices which gen-
erate heat, such as a toaster,
microwave, electric heater, elec-
tric kettle, coffee maker, etc., as
they may cause burns or a fire
in the case of sudden braking or
an accident.
• Devices which may fall under
the pedals and prevent the
brake pedal from being
depressed.
● Do not use devices which pro-
duce steam while the windows
are closed. Doing so may cause
the windows to fog up, reducing
visibility and making it difficult to
drive safely. Also, the steam
may damage or negatively
affect other devices.
● Do not connect a malfunctioning
device to a power outlet, as
doing so may cause the power
outlets to become inoperable.
● Do not disconnect the plug of a
device while your hands are wet
or insert a pin or other object
into the power outlet. Also, if a
liquid or snow is on the power
outlet, dry the outlet before
using it.
● Do not attempt to modify, disas-
semble or repair a power outlet.
Also, do not replace the 120
VAC inverter with a commer-
cially available one. For infor-
mation on repairs, contact your
Toyota dealer.
