WARNING

  • Caution for use while driving
    • When operating the multi-information display while driving, pay extra attention to the safety of the area around the vehicle.
    • Do not look continuously at the multi-information display while driving as you may fail to see pedestrians, objects on the road, etc. ahead of the vehicle.
  • The information displayed at low temperatures
    Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed. For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or injury.
  • Cautions during setting up the display
    As the engine needs to be running while setting up the display, ensure that the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO) may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious health hazard.

    2. Release the parking brake.
      If the parking brake is in automatic mode, the parking brake will be released automatically.
    3. Gradually release the brake pedal and gently depress the accelerator pedal to accelerate the vehicle.
  • Stopping
    1. With the shift lever in D, depress the brake pedal.
    2. If necessary, set the parking brake.
    3. If the vehicle is to be stopped for an extended period, shift the shift lever to P.
  • Parking the vehicle
    1. With the shift lever in D, depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle completely.
    2. Set the parking brake, and shift the shift lever to P.
    3. Make sure the parking brake indi-cator light is on.
    4. Do not press the shift release button after shifting the shift lever to P.
      1. Vehicles without a smart key system: Turn the engine switch to OFF to stop the engine.
      2. Vehicles with a smart key system: Press the engine switch to stop the engine.
    5. Slowly release the brake pedal.
    6. Lock the door, making sure that you have the key on your person. If parking on a hill, block the wheels as needed.
  • Starting off on a steep uphill
    1. Make sure that the parking brake is set and shift the shift lever to D.
    2. Gently depress the accelerator pedal.
    3. Release the parking brake.
  • Driving in the rain
    • Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the windows may become fogged up, and the road will be slippery.
    • Drive carefully when it starts to rain because the road surface will be especially slippery.
    • Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain, because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road surface, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.

Engine speed while driving
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving. This is due to auto-matic up-shifting control or down-shifting implementation to meet driving conditions. It does not indicate sudden acceleration.

  • The vehicle is judged to be driving uphill or downhill
  • When the accelerator pedal is released
  • When the brake pedal is depressed while sport mode is selected (if equipped)

Restraining the engine output (Brake Override System)

  • When the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed at the same time, the engine output may be restrained.
  • A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the system is operating.

Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observing the following precautions is recommended:

  • For the first 186 miles (300 km): Avoid sudden stops.
  • For the first 621 miles (1000 km):
    • Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
