WARNING
■The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the display monitor may
respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and exce ssive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in death or injury.
■ Cautions during setting up the display
As the engine needs to be running during setting up the display, ensure that
the vehicle is parked in a place with adequate ventilation. In a closed area
such as a garage, exhaust gases including harmful carbon monoxide (CO)
may collect and enter the vehicle. This may lead to death or a serious
health hazard.

Operation of each component
AVENSIS_OM_OM20C79E_(EE)■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is within the effective range (detection areas),
the system may not operate properly in the following cases.
• The electronic key is too close to the window or outside door handle, near
the ground, or in a high place when the doors are locked or unlocked.
• The electronic key is near the ground or in a high place, or too close to
the rear bumper center when the trunk or back door is locked/unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instrument panel, package tray (sedan), lug-
gage cover (wagon), floor or in the glove box when the engine is started
or engine switch modes are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on top of the instrument panel or near the
door pockets when exiting the vehicle. Depending on the radio wave recep-
tion conditions, it may be detected by the antenna outside the cabin and the
door will become lockable from the outside, possibly trapping the electronic
key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is within the effective range, the doors may be
locked or unlocked by anyone.
●Even if the electronic key is not inside the vehicle, it may be possible to start
the engine if the electronic key is near the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a large amount of water splashes on the
door handle, such as in the rain or in a car wash when the electronic key is
within the effective range. (The doors will automatically be locked after
approximately 30 seconds if the doors are not opened and closed.)
●If the key is kept near the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied to a
door handle may cause the door to lock and unlock repeatedly. In this event,
place the key in a location 2 m (6 ft.) or more from the vehicle, taking care
not to lose the key.
●If the key is inside the vehicle while it is being washed, water applied to a
door handle may cause a buzzer to sound and a message to be displayed.
In this event, locking all doors will cause the message to extinguish and the
buzzer to stop sounding.
●It may not be possible to lock the doors if the sensor area is covered by
mud, ice, snow etc. In this event, try locking again after cleaning the area, or
lock by touching the sensor area on the underside of the door handle.
●Gripping the door handle when wearing a glove may not unlock or lock the
door.
●If the wireless remote control is used to lock the doors when the electronic
key is near the vehicle, there is a possibility that the door may not be
unlocked by the smart entry & start system. (Use the wireless remote control
to unlock the doors.)
●A sudden approach to the effective range or door handle operation may pre-
vent the doors from being unlocked. In this case, return the door handle to
the original position and check that the doors unlock before pulling the door
handle again.

Driving
AVENSIS_OM_OM20C79E_(EE)
■ When the steering lock cannot be released
■ Steering lock motor overheating prevention
To prevent the steering lock motor from overheating, the motor may be sus-
pended if the engine is turned on and off repeatedly in a short period of time.
In this case, refrain from running the engine. After about 10 seconds, the
steering lock motor will resume functioning.
■ When the engine switch indicator flashes in amber
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota author ized repairer, or any reliable repairer,
immediately.
■ When the electronic key battery is depleted
 P. 592
The green indicator light on the engine
switch will flash and a message will be
shown on the multi-information display.
Press the engine switch again while turn-
ing the steering wheel left and right.
WARNING
■ When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
■ Caution while driving
If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the
doors until the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop. Activation of the
steering lock in this circumstance may lead to 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 switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly
3 times or more in succession. ( P. 519)
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emer-
gency. 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.

information display.
To return to normal D position
driving, the “+” paddle shift
switch must be held down for a
period of time.
■
Gear steps and their functions
●You can choose from 7 levels of engine braking force.

information display.
However, even when in the M position, the gear steps will be automat-
ically changed if the engine speed is too high, or too low.
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 7 levels of accelerating force and engine
braking force.
●A lower gear step will provide greater accelerating force and
engine braking force than a higher gear step, and the engine rev-
olutions will also increase.

2244-2. Driving procedures
AVENSIS_OM_OM20C79E_(EE)■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed.
For vehicles with Multidrive: If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot
on the brake pedal, there may be a problem with the shift lock system. Have
the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer, immediately.
The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to ensure that
the shift lever can be shifted.
Releasing the shift lock:
Set the parking brake.
Turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without smart entry
& start system) or off (vehicles with smart entry & start system).
Depress the brake pedal.
■If the M indicator is not displayed after shifting the shift lever to the M
position
This may indicate a malfunction in the transmission system. Have your vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer immediately.
■G AI-SHIFT
The G AI-SHIFT is automatically changed to a suitable gear step while run-
ning in sport mode according to the driving operations and running condi-
tions.
The G AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the driving mode is set to sport
mode with the shift lever in the D position. (The function will be canceled, if
the driving mode is set to normal mode or shift lever is put in the M position.) Press the “SHIFT LOCK” button.
The shift lever can be shifted while the
button is pressed.
