2344-1. Before driving
UK_AURIS/AURIS_HV_EE (OM12G88E)
Multi-mode manual transmission
With the brake pedal depressed, firmly set the parking brake and
shift the shift lever to E or M.
When shifting the shift lever to E: Make sure that the display of the gear
position indicator shows E.
When shifting the shift lever to M: Make sure that the display of the gear
position indicator shows 1.
Gently depress the accelerator pedal.
Release the parking brake.
Manual transmission
With the parking brake firmly set and the clutch pedal fully
depressed, shift the shift lever to 1.
Lightly depress the accelerator pedal at the same time as gradually
releasing the clutch pedal.
Release the parking brake.
When starting off on an uphill (vehicles with a hill-start assist control)
The hill-start assist control is available. (P. 380)
Driving in the rain
Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-
dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-
cially 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 sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
Engine speed while driving (vehicles with a Multidrive)
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving.
This is due to automatic up-shifting control or down-shifting implementation 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
When the brake pedal is depressed while sport mode is selected

2364-1. Before driving
UK_AURIS/AURIS_HV_EE (OM12G88E)For efficient use (hybrid model)
Select the D position when driving.
In the N position, the gasoline engine operates but electricity cannot be gen-
erated.
The hybrid battery (traction battery) will be discharged requiring unneces-
sary engine power to recharge.
Drive your vehicle smoothly.
Avoid abrupt acceleration and deceleration. Gradual acceleration and decel-
eration will make more effective use of the traction motor without having to
use gasoline engine power.
Avoid repeated acceleration.
Repeated acceleration consumes hybrid battery (traction battery) power,
resulting in poor acceleration. Battery power can be restored by driving with
the accelerator pedal slightly released.
Push the P position switch when parking.
In the N position, the hybrid battery (traction battery) does not recharge.
Leaving the N position selected for an extended period of the time may dis-
charge the hybrid battery. The vehicle cannot run if the hybrid battery is dis-
charged.
Brake actuator (hybrid model)
The brake actuator uses brake fluid pressurized by the pump to power-assist
the brakes. If the brake actuator fails during driving, the brake system warn-
ing light comes on and the buzzer sounds intermittently. In this case, the
brakes may not work properly. If they do not work well, depress the brake
pedal firmly. If the brake system warning light comes on, immediately stop
your vehicle and contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional.
In the following conditions, you may hear a sound in the engine compartment.
This is not a malfunction.
The driver’s door is opened with the hybrid system turned off.
The brake pedal is depressed with the hybrid system turned off.
After the hybrid system is turned on.
The brake pedal is depressed repeatedly with the hybrid system turned on.
After the hybrid system is turned off.
The brake pedal may be hard to depress or the brake pedal stroke may be
short before turning the hybrid system on. This is not a malfunction.

Types of sensors
Toyota parking assist-sensor switch
Turns Toyota parking assist-
sensor on/off
When on, the indicator light
comes on to inform the driver
that the system is operational.
Toyota parking assist-sensor
: If equipped
The distance from your vehicle to nearby obstacles when paral-
lel parking or maneuvering into a garage is measured by the
sensors and communicated via the multi-information display
and a buzzer. Always check the surrounding area when using
this system.

Sensor detection information
Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect the
ability of the sensor to correctly detect obstacles. Particular instances where
this may occur are listed below.
• There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor.
• A sensor is frozen.
• A sensor is covered in any way.
• The vehicle is leaning considerably to one side.
• On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
• The vicinity of the vehicle is noisy due to vehicle horns, motorcycle
engines, air brakes of large vehicles, or other loud noises producing ultra-
sonic waves.
• There is another vehicle equipped with parking assist sensors in the
vicinity.
• A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
• The vehicle is equipped with a fender pole or wireless antenna.
• Towing eyelet is installed.
• A bumper or sensor receives a strong impact.
• The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.
• In harsh sunlight or intense cold weather.
• A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension etc.) is installed.
In addition to the examples above, there are instances in which, because of
their shapes, signs and other objects may be judged by the sensor to be
closer than they are.
The shape of the obstacle may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay
particular attention to the following obstacles:
• Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
• Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
• Sharply-angled objects
• Low obstacles
• Tall obstacles with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of
your vehicle

CAUTION
Caution when using the Toyota parking assist-sensor
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely
and possibly cause an accident.
Do not use the sensor at speeds in excess of 10 km/h (6 mph).
Do not attach any accessories within the sensor range.
NOTICE
Notes on the Toyota parking assist-sensor
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor malfunctioning.
If your vehicle is involved in an accident, it will affect the sensors and may
result in a system failure.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.

Simple-IPA (Simple-Intelligent Parking
Assist)

: If equipped
Simple-IPA is a system that assists parallel parking operations.
When parking between two parked vehicles or in the space
behind one parked vehicle, the sensors installed on the sides of
the front bumper are utilized and a space which the vehicle can
be parked in is detected. Parking operations are then assisted
by automatic operation of the steering wheel.
