Approximately five hours after
the hybrid system is turned off, you may hear sound coming
from under the vehicle for sev-
eral minutes. This is the sound
of a fuel evaporation leakage
check and it does not indicate a
malfunction.
A wide variety of non-genuine
spare parts and accessories for
Toyota vehicles are currently
available in the market. You
should know that Toyota does
not warrant these products and
is not responsible for their per-
formance, repair, or replace-
ment, or for any damage they
may cause to, or adverse effect
they may have on, your Toyota
vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modi-
fied with non-genuine Toyota
products. Modification with non-
genuine Toyota products could
affect its performance, safety or
durability, and may even violate
governmental regulations. In
addition, damage or perfor-
mance problems resulting from
the modification may not be cov-
ered under warranty.
Also, remodeling like this will
have an effect on advanced
safety equipment such as Toy-
ota Safety Sense 2.5 and there
is a danger that it will not work

WARNING
●Do not make jerk y, abrupt or
sharp turns.
●Do not apply the brakes sud-
denly as you may skid, resulting
in jackknifing and loss of vehicle
control. This is especially true
on wet or slippery surfaces.
●Do not exceed th e trailer hitch
assembly weight, gross vehicle
weight, gross axle weight and
trailer tongue weight capacities.
●Do not use the following sys-
tems when your vehicles is tow-
ing a trailer or a nother vehicle.
• PCS (Pre-Collision System)
• Dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range
Except when the following condi-
tions are all met,
• When the other vehicle is a trailer properly attached and
connected to Toyota’s official
TBC ECU.
• When the vehicle is not being driven on a slippery surface
such as an icy road or a very
wet road.
●Do not use the following sys-
tems when your vehicles is tow-
ing a trailer or a nother vehicle.
• Cruise control (if equipped)
• LTA (Lane Tracing Assist)
If the vehicle detects that a trailer
is being towed, the lane centering
function of LTA is automatically
turned off.
●Slow down and downshift
before descending steep or long
downhill grades. Do not make
sudden downshifts while
descending steep or long down-
hill grades.
●Vehicle-trailer instability is more
likely on steep long downhills.
Before descending steep or
long downhill grades, slow
down and downshift. Do not
make sudden downshifts when
descending steep or long down-
hill grades. Avoid holding the
brake pedal down too long or
applying the brakes too fre-
quently. This could cause the
brakes to overheat and result in
reduced braking efficiency.
●Do not tow a trailer when the
temporary spare tire is installed
on your vehicle.
■When towing a trailer
Toyota recommends trailers with
brakes that conform to any appli-
cable federal and s tate/provincial
regulations.
●If the gross tr ailer weight
exceeds unbraked TWR, trailer
brakes are required. Toyota rec-
ommends trailers with brakes
that conform to all applicable
federal and state/provincial reg-
ulations.
●Never tap into your vehicle’s
hydraulic system, as this will
lower the vehicle’s braking
effectiveness.
●Never tow a traile r without using
a safety chain securely attached
to both the trailer and the vehi-
cle. If damage occurs to the
coupling unit or hitch ball, there
is danger of the trailer wander-
ing into another lane.

WARNING
●Emergency steering assist may
not operate or may be cancel in
the following cases as the sys-
tem may determine the driver is
taking actions.
• If the accelerato r pedal is being
depressed strongly, the steering
wheel is being operated sharply,
the brake pedal is being
depressed or the turn signal
lever is being ope rated. In this
case, the system may deter-
mine that the driver is taking
evasive action and the emer-
gency steering assist may not
operate.
• The emergency steering assist will be disabled automatically
when the system judges that a
trailer is connected.
• In some situations, while the emergency steering assist is
operating, operation of the func-
tion may be canceled if the
accelerator peda l is depressed
strongly, the st eering wheel is
operated sharply or the brake
pedal is being depressed and
the system determines that the
driver is taking evasive action.
• When the emergency steering assist is operating, if the steer-
ing wheel is held firmly or is
operated in the opposite direc-
tion to that which the system is
generating torque, the function
may be canceled.
■When to disable the pre-colli-
sion system
In the following situations, disable
the system, as it may not operate

●Do not use the lane centering
system and steering assist func-
tion when the vehicle is lifted
unless using a Toyota official lift
up kit up to 4 in. (101 mm),
including tire height. Aftermar-
ket lift kits may degrade system
performance.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
Do not overly rely on the system,
as doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.
Always drive while checking the
safety of the surroundings of the
vehicle.
Depending on the vehicle and
road conditions, weather, etc., the
system may not operate.
The detection capa bilities of sen-
sors and radars are limited.
Always drive while checking the
safety of the surroundings of the
vehicle.
●The driver is solely responsible
for safe driving. Always drive
carefully, taking care to observe
your surroundings. The Parking
Support Brake system is
designed to provide support to
lessen the severity of collisions.
However, it may not operate in
some situations.
●The Parking Support Brake sys-
tem is not designed to stop the
vehicle completely. Additionally,
even if the system has stopped
the vehicle, it is necessary to
depress the brake pedal imme-
diately as brake control will be
canceled after approximately 2
seconds.
●It is extremely dangerous to
check the system operations by
intentionally driving the vehicle
into the direction of a wall, etc.
Never attempt such actions.
■When to disable the Parking
Support Brake
In the following situations, disable
the Parking Support Brake as the
system may operate even though
there is no poss ibility of a colli-
sion.
●When inspecting the vehicle
using a chassis roller, chassis
dynamo or free roller
●When loading the vehicle onto a
boat, truck or other transport
vessel
●If the suspension has been
modified or tires of a size other
than specified are installed
●If the front of the vehicle is
raised or lowered due to the
carried load
●When equipment that may
obstruct a sensor is installed,
such as a towing eyelet, bumper
protector (an additional trim
strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When using automatic car
washing devices
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in
a stable manner, such as when
the vehicle has been in an acci-
dent or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a
sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly
inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When a tire chains, compact
spare tire or an emergency tire
puncture repair kit is used
