FEATURES/OPERATIONS
Hybrid transmission

* The engine brake is the equivalent of downshifting. Shift to “B” when engine
braking is desired (i.e. downhill driving, coasting to a stop, etc.).
Starting your vehicle
The Hybrid Synergy Drive System utilizes a computer-controlled gasoline engine
and electric motor to provide the most efficient combination of power for the
vehicle. To conserve energy, when the brakes are applied the braking force
generates electricity which is then sent to the traction battery. In addition,
the engine shuts off when the vehicle is stopped. The benefits are better fuel
economy, reduced vehicle emissions and improved performance.
NOTE: Fuel consumption and energy information of the hybrid system are shown on the Multi-Information Displays.
Tips for improved fuel economy
-(nsure tire pressures are maintained at levels specified in the Owner’s Manual.
-When possible, link trips to reduce engine cold starts.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of the Air Conditioning.
Hybrid Synergy Drive System
Auto lock/unlock
Automatic door locks can be programmed to operate in two different modes, or
turned OFF.
-Doors lock when shifting from Park.
-Doors lock when the vehicle speed is approximately 12 mph or higher.
-Doors unlock when shifting into Park.
-Doors unlock when the driver’s door is opened within 10 seconds after turning the
“POWER” switch OFF.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details. (1) Depress the brake pedal, and

SAFETY AND EMERGENCY FEATURES
Star Safety SystemTM
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control provides cooperative control of the ABS, TRAC,
VSC and EPS.
Enhanced VSC helps to maintain directional stability when loss of traction occurs
during a turn.
Enhanced Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
ABS helps prevent brakes from locking up by “pulsing” brake pressure to each
wheel. This limits brake lockup and helps provide directional control for the
current road conditions.
Toyota’s ABS sensors detect which wheels are locking up and limits wheel lockup
by “pulsing” each wheel’s brakes independently. Pulsing releases brake pressure
repeatedly for fractions of a second. This helps the tires attain the traction that
current road conditions will allow, helping you to stay in directional control. VSC helps prevent loss of traction during cornering by reducing Hybrid System
output, and Traction Control helps maintain traction on loose gravel and wet, icy,
or uneven surfaces by applying brake force to the spinning wheel(s).
Toyota’s TRAC sensors are activated when one of the drive wheels starts to slip.
TRAC limits Hybrid System output and applies the brakes to the spinning wheel.
This transfers power to the wheels that still have traction to help keep you on
track.
Traction Control (TRAC)
All new Toyota vehicles come standard with the Star Safety SystemTM, which
combines Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA)
and Smart Stop Technology (SST).
