■

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

(vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission)

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

■

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

130

4-1. Before driving

while the system is operating.

■

Restraining sudden start

(Drive-Start Control [vehicles

with a continuously variable

transmission])

●

When the following unusual oper-

ation is performed, the engine out-

put may be restrained.

• When the shift lever is shifted from

R to D, D to R, N to R, P to D, or P

to R (D includes M) with the accel-

erator pedal depressed, a warning

message appears on the

multi-information display. If a

warning message is shown on the

multi-information display, read the

message and follow the instruc-

tion.

• When the accelerator pedal is

depressed too much while the

vehicle is in reverse.

●

While Drive-Start Control is being

activated, your vehicle may have

trouble escaping from the mud or

fresh snow. In such case, deacti-

vate TRAC (



P.245) to cancel

Drive-Start Control so that the

vehicle may become able to

escape from the mud or fresh

snow.

■

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.

• Avoid sudden acceleration.

• Do not drive continuously in low

gears.

• Do not drive at a constant speed

for extended periods.

■

Operating your vehicle in a for-

eign country

Comply with the relevant vehicle

registration laws and confirm the

availability of the correct fuel.

(



P.515)

WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

■

When starting the vehicle

(vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission)

Always keep your foot on the

brake pedal while stopped with

the engine running. This prevents

the vehicle from creeping.

■

When driving the vehicle

●

Do not drive if you are unfamil-

iar with the location of the brake

and accelerator pedals to avoid

depressing the wrong pedal.

• Accidentally depressing the

accelerator pedal instead of the

brake pedal will result in sudden

acceleration that may lead to an

accident.

• When backing up, you may twist

your body around, leading to a

difficulty in operating the pedals.

Make sure to operate the pedals

properly.

• Make sure to keep a correct

driving posture even when mov-

ing the vehicle only slightly. This

allows you to depress the brake

and accelerator pedals properly.

• Depress the brake pedal using

your right foot. Depressing the

brake pedal using your left foot

may delay response in an emer-

gency, resulting in an accident.

131

4-1. Before driving

ing

WARNING

●

Do not drive the vehicle over or

stop the vehicle near flammable

materials.

The exhaust system and

exhaust gases can be

extremely hot. These hot parts

may cause a fire if there is any

flammable material nearby.

●

During normal driving, do not

turn off the engine. Turning the

engine off while driving will not

cause loss of steering or brak-

ing control, but the power assist

to these systems will be lost.

This will make it more difficult to

steer and brake, so you should

pull over and stop the vehicle as

soon as it is safe to do so.

However, in the event of an

emergency, such as if it

becomes impossible to stop the

vehicle in the normal way:



P.462

●

Use engine braking (downshift)

to maintain a safe speed when

driving down a steep hill.

Using the brakes continuously

may cause the brakes to over-

heat and lose effectiveness.

(



P.145, 149)

●

Do not adjust the positions of

the steering wheel, the seat, or

the inside or outside rear view

mirrors while driving.

Doing so may result in a loss of

vehicle control.

●

Always check that all passen-

gers’ arms, heads or other parts

of their body are not outside the

vehicle.

●

Do not drive in excess of the

speed limit. Even if the legal

speed limit permits it, do not

drive over 85 mph (140 km/h)

unless your vehicle has

high-speed capability tires. Driv-

ing over 85 mph (140 km/h)

may result in tire failure, loss of

control and possible injury. Be

sure to consult a tire dealer to

determine whether the tires on

your vehicle are high-speed

capability tires or not before

driving at such speeds.

■

When driving on slippery

road surfaces

●

Sudden braking, acceleration

and steering may cause tire

slippage and reduce your ability

to control the vehicle.

●

Sudden acceleration, engine

braking due to shifting, or

changes in engine speed could

cause the vehicle to skid.

●

After driving through a puddle,

lightly depress the brake pedal

to make sure that the brakes

are functioning properly. Wet

brake pads may prevent the

brakes from functioning prop-

erly. If the brakes on only one

side are wet and not functioning

properly, steering control may

be affected.

■

When shifting the shift lever

●

Vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission: Do not let

the vehicle roll backward while a

forward driving position is

selected, or roll forward while

the shift lever is in R.

Doing so may cause the engine

to stall or lead to poor brake and

steering performance, resulting

in an accident or damage to the

vehicle.

132

4-1. Before driving

WARNING

●

Vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission: Do not

shift the shift lever to P while the

vehicle is moving.

Doing so can damage the trans-

mission and may result in a loss

of vehicle control.

●

Do not shift the shift lever to R

while the vehicle is moving for-

ward.

Doing so can damage the trans-

mission and may result in a loss

of vehicle control.

●

Do not shift the shift lever to a

driving position while the vehicle

is moving backward.

Doing so can damage the trans-

mission and may result in a loss

of vehicle control.

●

Moving the shift lever to N while

the vehicle is moving will disen-

gage the engine from the trans-

mission. Engine braking is not

available when N is selected.

●

Vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission: Be care-

ful not to shift the shift lever with

the accelerator pedal

depressed. Shifting the shift

lever to any positions other than

P or N may lead to unexpected

rapid acceleration of the vehicle

that may cause an accident and

result in death or serious injury.

■

If you hear a squealing or

scraping noise (brake pad

wear indicators)

Have the brake pads checked and

replaced by your Toyota dealer as

soon as possible.

Rotor damage may result if the

pads are not replaced when

needed.

It is dangerous to drive the vehicle

when the wear limits of the brake

pads and/or those of the brake

discs are exceeded.

■

When the vehicle is stopped

●

Do not race the engine.

If the vehicle is in any gear other

than P (continuously variable

transmission) or N, the vehicle

may accelerate suddenly and

unexpectedly, causing an acci-

dent.

●

Vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission: In order

to prevent accidents due to the

vehicle rolling away, always

keep depressing the brake

pedal while the engine is run-

ning, and apply the parking

brake as necessary.

●

If the vehicle is stopped on an

incline, in order to prevent acci-

dents caused by the vehicle roll-

ing forward or backward, always

depress the brake pedal and

securely apply the parking

brake as needed.

●

Avoid revving or racing the

engine.

Running the engine at high

speed while the vehicle is

stopped may cause the exhaust

system to overheat, which could

result in a fire if combustible

material is nearby.

■

When the vehicle is parked

●

Do not leave glasses, cigarette

lighters, spray cans, or soft

drink cans in the vehicle when it

is in the sun.

Doing so may result in the fol-

lowing:

• Gas may leak from a cigarette

lighter or spray can, and may

lead to a fire.

133

4-1. Before driving

ing

WARNING

• The temperature inside the

vehicle may cause the plastic

lenses and plastic material of

glasses to deform or crack.

• Soft drink cans may fracture,

causing the contents to spray

over the interior of the vehicle,

and may also cause a short cir-

cuit in the vehicle’s electrical

components.

●

Do not leave cigarette lighters in

the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter

is in a place such as the glove

box or on the floor, it may be lit

accidentally when luggage is

loaded or the seat is adjusted,

causing a fire.

●

Do not attach adhesive discs to

the windshield or windows. Do

not place containers such as air

fresheners on the instrument

panel or dashboard. Adhesive

discs or containers may act as

lenses, causing a fire in the

vehicle.

●

Do not leave a door or window

open if the curved glass is

coated with a metallized film

such as a silver-colored one.

Reflected sunlight may cause

the glass to act as a lens, caus-

ing a fire.

●

Always apply the parking brake,

shift the shift lever to P (vehicles

with a continuously variable

transmission), stop the engine

and lock the vehicle.

Do not leave the vehicle unat-

tended while the engine is run-

ning.

If the vehicle is parked with the

shift lever in P but the parking

brake is not set, the vehicle may

start to move, possibly leading

to an accident.

●

Do not touch the exhaust pipes

while the engine is running or

immediately after turning the

engine off.

Doing so may cause burns.

■

When taking a nap in the vehi-

cle

Always turn the engine off. Other-

wise, if you accidentally move the

shift lever or depress the acceler-

ator pedal, this could cause an

accident or fire due to engine

overheating. Additionally, if the

vehicle is parked in a poorly venti-

lated area, exhaust gases may

collect and enter the vehicle, lead-

ing to death or a serious health

hazard.

■

When braking

●

When the brakes are wet, drive

more cautiously.

Braking distance increases

when the brakes are wet, and

this may cause one side of the

vehicle to brake differently than

the other side. Also, the parking

brake may not securely hold the

vehicle.

●

If the brake booster device does

not operate, do not follow other

vehicles closely and avoid hills

or sharp turns that require brak-

ing.

In this case, braking is still pos-

sible, but the brake pedal

should be depressed more

firmly than usual. Also, the brak-

ing distance will increase. Have

your brakes fixed immediately.

●

Do not pump the brake pedal if

the engine stalls.

Each push on the brake pedal

uses up the reserve for the

power-assisted brakes.

134

4-1. Before driving

WARNING

●

The brake system consists of 2

individual hydraulic systems; if

one of the systems fails, the

other will still operate. In this

case, the brake pedal should be

depressed more firmly than

usual and the braking distance

will increase. Have your brakes

fixed immediately.

■

If the vehicle becomes stuck

Do not spin the wheels exces-

sively when a driven wheel is up

in the air, or the vehicle is stuck in

sand, mud, etc. This may damage

the driveline components or pro-

pel the vehicle forward or back-

ward, causing an accident.

NOTICE

■

When driving the vehicle

(vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission)

●

may damage the clutch, trans-

mission and gears.

●

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may cause

excessive premature wear or

damage to the clutch, eventu-

ally making it difficult to acceler-

ate and start off from a stop.

Have the vehicle inspected by

your Toyota dealer.

• Do not rest your foot on the

clutch pedal or depress it any

time other than when shifting.

Doing so may cause clutch trou-

ble.

• Do not use any gear other than

the 1st gear when starting off

and moving forward.

Doing so may damage the

clutch.

• Do not use the clutch pedal to

adjust vehicle speed.

Doing so may damage the

clutch.

the shift lever in a position other

than N, make sure to fully

depress the clutch pedal and

stop the vehicle using the

brakes.

●

Do not shift the shift lever to R

without the vehicle completely

stopped.

Doing so may damage the

clutch, transmission and gears.

■

When parking the vehicle

(vehicles with a continuously

variable transmission)

Always set the parking brake and

shift the shift lever to P. Failure to

do so may cause the vehicle to

move or the vehicle may acceler-

ate suddenly if the accelerator

pedal is accidentally depressed.

ing

NOTICE

■

Avoiding damage to vehicle

parts

●

Do not turn the steering wheel

fully in either direction and hold

it there for an extended period

of time.

Doing so may damage the

power steering motor.

●

When driving over bumps in the

road, drive as slowly as possible

to avoid damaging the wheels,

underside of the vehicle, etc.

■

If you get a flat tire while driv-

ing

A flat or damaged tire may cause

the following situations. Hold the

steering wheel firmly and gradu-

ally depress the brake pedal to

slow down the vehicle.

●

It may be difficult to control your

vehicle.

●

The vehicle will make abnormal

When encountering flooded

roads

Do not drive on a road that has

flooded after heavy rain etc.

Doing so may cause the following

serious damage to the vehicle:

●

Engine stalling

●

Short in electrical components

●

Engine damage caused by

water immersion

In the event that you drive on a

flooded road and the vehicle

becomes flooded or stuck in mud

or sand, be sure to have your Toy-

ota dealer check the following:

●

Brake function

●

Changes in the quantity and

quality of the engine oil, tran-

saxle fluid, clutch fluid, differen-

tial oil, etc.

●

Lubricant condition for the bear-

ings and suspension joints

(where possible), and the func-

tion of all joints, bearings, etc.

136

4-1. Before driving

Cargo capacity depends on the
total weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Total load
capacity) — (Total weight of
occupants)
Steps for Determining Correct
Load Limit —
(1) Locate the statement “The
combined weight of occupants
and cargo should never exceed
XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your
vehicle’s placard.
(2) Determine the combined
weight of the driver and passen-
gers that will be riding in your
vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined
weight of the driver and passen-
gers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals
the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity.
For example, if the “XXX”
amount equals 1400 lbs. and
there will be five 150 lb passen-
gers in your vehicle, the amount
of available cargo and luggage
load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 −

750 (5



150) = 650 lbs.)

(5) Determine the combined
weight of luggage and cargo
being loaded on the vehicle.
That weight may not safely
exceed the available cargo and
luggage load capacity calcu-
lated in Step 4.
(6) If your vehicle will be towing
a trailer, load from your trailer
will be transferred to your vehi-
cle. Consult this manual to
determine how this reduces the
available cargo and luggage
load capacity of your vehicle.
(



P.514)

Toyota does not recommend towing
a trailer with your vehicle. Your
vehicle is not designed for trailer
towing.

ing

total load capacity (vehicle
capacity weight) of B lb. (kg),
the available amount of cargo
and luggage load capacity will
be C lb. (kg) as follows:

lb. (kg) - A

lb. (kg) = C

lb.

(kg)

:A =Weight of people

:B =Total load capacity

:C =Available cargo and luggage

load

In this condition, if 3 more passen-
gers with the combined weight of D
lb. (kg) get on, the available cargo
and luggage load will be reduced E
lb. (kg) as follows:

C lb. (kg) - D

lb. (kg) = E

lb.

(kg)

:D =Additional weight of people

:E =Available cargo and luggage

load

As shown in the example above,
if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and lug-
gage load will be reduced by an
amount that equals the
increased weight due to the
additional occupants. In other
words, if an increase in the num-
ber of occupants causes an
excess of the total load capacity
(combined weight of occupants
plus cargo and luggage load),
you must reduce the cargo and
luggage on your vehicle.

WARNING

■

Things that must not be car-

ried in the luggage compart-

ment

The following things may cause a

fire if loaded in the luggage com-

partment:

●

Receptacles containing gaso-

line

●

Aerosol cans

■

Storage precautions

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may prevent the

pedals from being depressed

properly, may block the driver’s

vision, or may result in items hit-

ting the driver or passengers, pos-

sibly causing an accident.

●

Stow cargo and luggage in the

luggage compartment when-

ever possible.

●

Do not place cargo or luggage

in or on the following locations.

• At the feet of the driver

• On the front passenger or rear

seats (when stacking items)

• On the luggage cover

• On the instrument panel

• On the dashboard

●

Automatic engine shut off fea-

ture

●

The vehicle is equipped with a

feature that automatically shuts off

the engine when the shift lever is

in P (continuously variable trans-

mission) or the parking brake is

set (manual transmission) with the

engine running for an extended

period.

●

The engine will automatically shut

off after approximately 1 hour if it

has been left running while the

shift lever is in P (continuously

variable transmission) or the park-

ing brake is set (manual transmis-

sion).

●

The timer for the automatic engine

shut off feature will reset if the

brake pedal (continuously variable

transmission) or the clutch pedal

(manual transmission) is

depressed, or if the shift lever is in

a position other than P (continu-

ously variable transmission) or the

parking brake is released (man-

ual transmission).

●

After the vehicle is parked, if the

door is locked with the door lock

switch (



P.103) from the inside or

the mechanical key (



P.503) from

the outside, the automatic engine

shut off feature will be disabled.

The timer for the automatic engine

shut off feature will be re-enabled

if the driver’s door is opened.

WARNING

■

Stopping the engine in an

emergency

●

If you want to stop the engine in

an emergency while driving the

vehicle, press and hold the

engine switch for more than 2

seconds, or press it briefly 3

times or more in succession.

(



P.462)

However, do not touch the

engine switch while driving

except in an emergency. Turn-

ing the engine off while driving

will not cause loss of steering or

braking control, but the power

assist to these systems will be

lost. This will make it more diffi-

cult to steer and brake, so you

should pull over and stop the

vehicle as soon as it is safe to

do so.

When parking

Exhaust gases include harmful

carbon monoxide (CO), which is

colorless and odorless. Observe

the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause

exhaust gases to enter the vehicle

and may lead to an accident

caused by light-headedness, or

may lead to death or a serious

health hazard.

●

If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-

lated area or a closed area,

such as a garage, stop the

engine.

●

Do not leave the vehicle with

the engine running for a long

time. If such a situation cannot

be avoided, park the vehicle in

an open space and ensure that

exhaust fumes do not enter the

vehicle interior.

●

Do not leave the engine running

in an area with snow build-up,

or where it is snowing. If snow-

banks build up around the vehi-

cle while the engine is running,

exhaust gases may collect and

enter the vehicle.
