Alarms and warning indicators
A combination of exterior and interior alarms as well as warnings displayed
on the multi-information display are used to prevent theft of the vehicle and
unforeseeable accidents resulting from erroneous operation. Take appropri-
ate measures in response to any warning indications on the multi-informa-
tion display. (P. 492)
The following table describes circumstances and correction procedures
when only alarms are sounded.
Note for vehicle battery disconnection and reconnection
When the doors are attempted to be unlocked by means of the smart
entry & start system just after the vehicle battery has been reconnected,
it may fail. In this case, use the wireless remote control or mechanical
key to unlock and lock the doors.
The first engine start since the last time the vehicle battery was recon-
nected may fail. The engine will start from the second attempt, so it is not
a malfunction.

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

CAUTION
Caution while driving
If the vehicle is coasting without engine power, for example if the engine
stalls, do not open a door or operate the locks until the vehicle is completely
stopped in a safe condition. Driving with the steering locked may cause an
accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
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 START STOP” switch for more than 2 seconds,
or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. (P. 563)
However, do not touch the “ENGINE START STOP” switch while driving
except in an emergency. Turning 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 difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull
over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCESSORY or IGNI-
TION ON mode for long periods without the engine running.
When starting the engine
Do not race a cold engine.
If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehi-
cle checked by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional immediately.
“ENGINE START STOP” switch operation
If you feel something catching or sense irregular resistance when operating
the “ENGINE START STOP” switch, then there may be a malfunction. Imme-
diately contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
