should be observed to
ensure safe driving:

Driving procedure

172

4-1. Before driving

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 automatic up-shifting

control or down-shifting implementa-

tion to meet driving conditions. It

does not indicate sudden accelera-

tion.

●

The vehicle is judged to be driving

uphill or downhill

●

When the accelerator pedal is

released

●

When the brake pedal is

depressed while “TOW HAUL”

mode or “TOW+” mode is selected

■

Restraining the hybrid system

output (Brake Override System)

●

When the accelerator and brake

pedals are depressed at the same

time, the hybrid system 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 200 miles (300 km):

Avoid sudden stops.

●

For the first 500 miles (800 km):

Do not tow a trailer.

●

For the first 1000 miles (1600 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.542)

WARNING

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

■

When starting the vehicle

Always keep your foot on the

brake pedal while stopped with

the “READY” indicator is illumi-

nated. 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 dif-

ficulty 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.

173

4-1. Before driving

ing

WARNING

• 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.

●

The driver should pay extra

attention to pedestrians when

the vehicle is powered only by

the electric motor (traction

motor). As there is no engine

noise, the pedestrians may mis-

judge the vehicle’s movement.

Even though the vehicle is

equipped with the acoustic vehi-

cle alerting system, drive with

care as pedestrians in the vicin-

ity may still not notice the vehi-

cle if the surrounding area is

noisy.

●

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 hybrid system. Turn-

ing the hybrid system off while

driving will not cause loss of

steering or braking control, how-

ever, power assist to the steer-

ing will be lost. This will make it

more difficult to steer smoothly,

so you should pull over and stop

the vehicle as soon as it is safe

to do so.

In the event of an emergency,

such as if it becomes impossible

to stop the vehicle in the normal

way:



P.494

●

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.200)

●

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. Driving

over 85 mph (140 km/h) may

result in tire failure, loss of con-

trol and possible injury. Be sure

to consult a tire dealer to deter-

mine whether the tires on your

vehicle are high-speed capabil-

ity tires or not before driving at

such speeds.

●

On vehicles with electronically

modulated air suspension, if

you drive through deep water

over about 20 in. (500 mm) in

depth, put the vehicle height in

the “HI” mode using the height

control switch and then change

to manual mode by pushing the

height control mode select

switch. Drive your vehicle at 18

mph (30 km/h) or less. Do not

stop in the water to prevent

water from entering within the

vehicle. Do not drive through

water deeper than about 28 in.

(700 mm) even if the vehicle

height is in “HI” mode. (



P.355)

174

4-1. Before driving

WARNING

■

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

●

Do not let the vehicle roll back-

ward while a forward driving

position is selected, or roll for-

ward while the shift lever is in R.

Doing so may result in an acci-

dent or damage to the vehicle.

●

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 hybrid system. Engine

braking is not available with the

hybrid system disengaged.

●

Be careful 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, or

any reliable repairer 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 depress the accelerator

pedal unnecessarily.

If the shift lever is any position

other than P or N, the vehicle

may accelerate suddenly and

unexpectedly, causing an acci-

dent.

●

In order to prevent accidents

due to the vehicle rolling away,

always keep depressing the

brake pedal while stopped with

the “READY” indicator is illumi-

nated, and apply the parking

4-1. Before driving

ing

WARNING

●

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.

• 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, stop the

hybrid system and lock the vehi-

cle. Do not leave the vehicle

unattended while the hybrid

system is operating.

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 “READY” indicator is

illuminated or immediately after

turning the hybrid system off.

Doing so may cause burns.

●

4WD models: If the shift lever is

moved before the “4L” indicator

turns on/off, the transfer mode

may not be shifted completely.

The transfer mode disengages

both the front and rear drivesh-

afts from the powertrain and

allows the vehicle to move

regardless of the shift position.

(At this time, the indicator blinks

and the buzzer sounds.)

Therefore, the vehicle is free to

roll even if the automatic trans-

mission is in P. You or someone

else could be seriously injured.

You must complete the shifting

of the transfer mode. (
