may not actually be parallel
with the dividing lines of the
parking space, even when
they appear to be so. Be sure
to check visually.
The distances between the
vehicle width guide lines and
the left and right dividing lines
of the parking space may not
be equal, even when they
appear to be so. Be sure to
check visually.
The distance guide lines give
a distance guide for flat road
surfaces. In any of the follow-
ing situations, there is a mar-
gin of error between the guide
lines on the screen and the
actual distance/course on the
road.
The distance guide lines will
appear to be closer to the vehi-
cle than the actual distance.
Because of this , objects will
appear to be farther away than
they actually are. In the same
way, there will be a margin of
error between the guidelines
and the actual distance/course
on the road. The distance guide lines will
appear to be farther from the
vehicle than the actual distance.
Because of this, objects will
appear to be closer than they
actually are. In the same way,
there will be a margin of error
between the guidelines and the
actual distance/course on the
road.

When any part of the vehicle
sags due to the number of pas-
sengers or the distribution of the
load, there is a margin of error
between the guide lines on the
screen and the actual dis-
tance/course on the road.A margin of error
When there are three-dimensional objects (such as vehicle bum-
pers, etc.) nearby in positions higher than the surface of the road,
take extra care when using the following.
Since the panoramic view processes and displays images based on
flat road surfaces, it cannot depict the position of three-dime nsion
objects (such as vehicle bumpers , etc.) that are in positions higher
than the surface of the road. For example, even though it appea rs
that there is space between the bumpers of the two vehicles in the
illustration below and they are not likely to collide, in reali ty, a colli-
sion is about to occur.

The estimated course lines target flat surfaced objects (such as the
road). It is not possible to determine the position of three-dimen-
sional objects (such as vehicles) using the estimated course li nes
and distance guide lines. When approaching a three-dimensional
object that extends outward (such as the flatbed of a truck), b e care-
ful of the following.
Since the estimated course line
is displayed for a flat road sur-
face, it cannot depict the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects
(such as vehicle bumpers, etc.)
that are in positions higher than the surface of the road. Even if
the bumpers of the vehicle is on
the outside of the estimated
course line in the image, in real-
ity, the vehicles are on a colli-
sion course.
WARNING
●When a sensor indicator on the in
tuitive parking assist display illumi-
nates in red or a buzzer sounds continuously, be sure to check the area
around the vehicle immediately a nd do not proceed any further until
safety has been ensured, otherwise an unexpected accident may o ccur.

Three-dimensional objects
(such as the overhang of a wall
or loading platform of a truck) in
high positions may not be pro-
jected on the screen. Check the
safety of the surroundings
directly. Visually check the surroundings
and the area behind the vehicle.
In the case shown below, the
truck appears to be outside of
the estimated course lines and
the vehicle does not look as if it
hits the truck. However, the rear
body of the truck may actually
cross over the estimated course
lines. In reality if you back up as
guided by the estimated course
lines, the vehicle may hit the
truck.A

1Eco drive mode
Suitable for driving to improve fuel
economy by more smoothly gener-
ating torque in response to acceler-
ator pedal operations compared to
normal mode and restraining air
conditioning system operations
(heating/cooling).
When the switch is turned to the left
while not in Eco drive mode, the
system switches to Eco drive mode
and the Eco drive mode indicator
illuminates on the mu lti-information
display.
2 Normal mode
Suitable for n ormal driving.
The driving mode returns to normal
mode if the switch i s pressed while
in Eco drive mode or sport mode.
3 Sport mode
Controls the steering feeling and
hybrid system to create an acceler-
ation response tha t is suitable for
sporty driving. Suitable for when
crisp handling is desired, such as
when driving on mountainous
roads.
When the switch is turned to the
right while not in sport mode, the
system switches to sport mode and
the sport mode indicator illuminates
on the multi-information display.
■When changing to a driving
mode other than normal mode
●The background color of the multi-
information display changes
according to the selected driving
mode.
●When the speedometer is set to
analog display, the speedometer
display color also changes. (For
vehicles with the 7-inch multi-
information di splay only)
●The color of the switch changes
according to the selected driving
mode. (For vehicles with the 7-
inch multi-information display
only)
■Air conditioning system opera-
tion in Eco drive mode
In Eco drive mode, heating/cooling
operations and the fan speed is con-
trolled to improve fuel efficiency.
Perform the following procedures to
increase the air conditioning perfor-
mance.
●Turn eco air conditioning mode off
( P.515)
●Adjust the fan speed ( P.515)
●Cancel Eco drive mode

■Canceling a driving mode
●Sport mode is automatically can-
celed and the driving mode
returns to normal mode when the
power switch is turned off.
●Normal mode and Eco drive mode
are not canceled until another
driving mode is selected. (Even if
the power switch is turned off, nor-
mal mode and Eco drive mode will
not be automatically canceled).
Press the Trail Mode switch.
Press the Trail Mode switch, to
turn the Trail Mode on.
The Trail Mode indicator light will
come on the multi- information dis-
play.
To turn the system off, press the
Trail Mode switch again.
Trail Mode (AWD vehi-
cles)
Trail Mode is designed to
control the spinning of the
drive wheels by integratedly
controlling AWD, brake and
drive force control sys-
tems. Use the Trail Mode
when driving bumpy roads,
etc.
WARNING
■Before using Trail Mode
Make sure to observe the follow-
ing precautions. Failure to
observe these precautions may
result in an unexp ected accident.
●Trail mode is intended for use
when driving on rough roads.
●Check that the Trail Mode indi-
cator is illuminated before driv-
ing.
●Trail Mode is not intended to
expand the limits of the vehicle.
Thoroughly check the road con-
ditions and drive with caution.
Enabling the system
Page 360 of 752
3604-5. Using the driving support systems
If the tires are spinning, the slip
indicator flashes to indicate that
the Trail Mode is controlling the
spinning of the tires.
■Trail Mode
●Trail Mode controls the vehicle so
that it can use the maximum
amount of drive force when driving
on rough roads.
As a result, fuel efficiency may
diminish when compared to driv-
ing with Trail Mode off.
●If Trail Mode is continuously used
for a long period of time, depend-
ing on the driving conditions, the
load on related parts increases
and the system may not function
correctly.
In this case, “Traction Control
Turned OFF” will be shown on the
multi-information display but the
vehicle can be driven normally.
The “Traction Control Turned OFF” on the multi-
information dis-
play will turn off after a short while
and the system will operate prop-
erly.
■When Trail Mode is canceled
In the following situations, Trail
Mode is automatically canceled
even if it is selected:
●When the driving mode is
changed. ( P.358)
●When the hybrid system is
restarted.
■Sounds and vibrations when
driving in Trail Mode
Any of the following conditions may
occur when Trail Mode is operating.
None of these indicates that a mal-
function has occurred:
●Vibrations may be felt throughout
the vehicle or steering
●Sounds may be heard from the
engine compartment
■When the Trail Mode indicator
does not illuminate
When the Trail Mode indicator does
not illuminate even though the Trail
Mode switch is pressed, the system
may be malfunctioning. Have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer immediately.
When the Trail Mode is
operating
NOTICE
■In order to ensure that Trail
Mode operates properly
Do not continuously use the Trail
Mode for a long period of time.
Depending on the driving condi-
tions, the load on related parts
increases and the system may not
operate properly.
