■If “Exhaust Filter Full See Owner’s Manual” is shown on the multi-
information display
●The message may be displayed while
high load driving with particulate mat- ter accumulating.
●Engine output (engine speed) is restricted when a certain amount of particulate matter accumulates, how-
ever, it is possible to drive the vehicle unless the malfunction indicator lamp comes on.
●Particulate matter can accumulate more quickly if the vehicle is fre-
quently driven short trips or at low speeds, or if the engine is regularly started in an extremely cold environ-
ment. Excessive accumulation of par- ticulate matter can be prevented by periodically driving long distances
continuously with intermittent releas- ing of the accelerator pedal, such as when driving on highways and free-
ways.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on or “Engine Maintenance Required Visit Your Dealer” is
shown on the multi-information display
The amount of accumulated particulate
matter has exceeded a certain level. Have the vehicle inspected by any
GPF (Gasoline Particu-
late Filter) system*
The GPF system collects par-
ticulate matter in the exhaust
gas by using an exhaust gas
filter.
The system will operate to
regenerate the filter automati-
cally, depending on the vehicle
conditions.

■Sounds and vibrations caused by the ABS, brake assist, VSC, TRC
and hill-start assist control sys- tems
●A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the brake pedal is depressed repeatedly, when
the engine is started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indicate that a malfunction
has occurred in any of these systems.
●Any of the following conditions may
occur when the above systems are operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.• A motor sound may be heard also
after the vehicle comes to a stop. • The brake pedal may pulsate slightly after the ABS is activated.
• The brake pedal may move down slightly after the ABS is activated.
■Active Cornering Assist operation sounds and vibrations
When the Active Cornering Assist is operated, operation sounds and vibra-tions may be generated from the brake
system, but this is not a malfunction.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is operated, a motor sound (whirring sound) may be
heard. This does not indicate a malfunc- tion.
■Automatic reactivation of TRC and VSC systems
After turning the TRC and VSC systems off, the systems will be automatically re-enabled in the following situations:
●When the engine switch is turned off
●If only the TRC system is turned off, the TRC will turn on when vehicle speed increases.

nering Assist
The system operates when the following occurs.
●TRC/VSC can operate
●The driver is attempting to accelerate while turning
●The system detects that the vehicle is drifting to the outer side
●The brake pedal is released
■Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is
reduced to prevent the system from overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period
of time. The steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur, refrain from excessive steering input or
stop the vehicle and turn the engine off. The EPS system should return to nor-mal within 10 minutes.
■Operating conditions of emergency
brake signal
When the following conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will oper-
ates:
●The emergency flashers are off
●Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph)
●The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that it is a sudden brak-
ing operation.
■Automatic system cancelation of emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will be can-
celed in any of the following situations:
●The emergency flashers are turned
on.
●The system judges from the vehicle
deceleration that is not a sudden brak- ing operation.
■Secondary Collision Brake operat-
ing conditions
The system operates when the SRS air- bag sensor detects a collision while the
vehicle is in motion. However, the system does not operate when components are damaged.
■Secondary Collision Brake auto-
matic cancelation
The system is automatically canceled in any of the following situations.
●The vehicle speed drops to approxi-mately 0 km/h (0 mph)
●A certain amount of time elapses during operation

●The limits of tire gripping perfor-
mance have been exceeded (such as excessively worn tires on a snow covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while driv-ing at high speed on wet or slick
roads.
■Stopping distance when the ABS
is operating may exceed that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten
the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially
in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or
snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road

WARNING
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec- tively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-pery road surfaces, even if the
TRC/VSC system is operating. Drive the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be
lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does not
operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active Corner- ing Assist. Active Cornering Assist
may not operate effectively when accelerating down slopes or driving on slippery road surfaces.
●When Active Cornering Assist fre-quently operates, Active Cornering
Assist may temporarily stop operat- ing to ensure proper operation of the brakes, TRC and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start assist control may not operate effectively on steep
inclines and roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-start
assist control is not intended to hold the vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not
attempt to use hill-start assist con- trol to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.
■When the TRC/VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular
care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a
speed appropriate to the road condi- tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driv-
ing force, do not turn the TRC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern
and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the recommended tire inflation pres-
sure level. The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspen-sion
Using tires with any kind of problem
or modifying the suspension will affect the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not rely solely upon the Secondary
Collision Brake. This system is designed to help reduce the possibil-ity of further damage due to a second-
ary collision, however, that effect changes according to various condi-tions. Overly relying on the system
may result in death or serious injury.

4-6. Driving tips
Driving
Perform the following according to
the driving conditions:
 Do not try to forcibly open a win-
dow or move a wiper that is fro-
zen. Pour warm water over the
frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe
away the water immediately to
prevent it from freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accu-
mulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
 Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the exte-
rior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis,
around the tires or on the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud from
the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep
a safe distance between you and
the vehicle ahead, and drive at a
reduced speed suitable to road
conditions.
 Park the vehicle and shift the
shift lever to P (Multidrive), or 1
or R (manual transmission) with-
out setting the parking brake.
The parking brake may freeze
up, preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is parked
without setting the parking brake,
make sure to block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be danger-
ous because it may cause the
vehicle to move unexpectedly,
possibly leading to an accident.
 Vehicles with Multidrive: If the
vehicle is parked without setting
the parking brake, confirm that
the shift lever cannot be moved
out of P*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is
attempted to be shifted from P to any
other position without depressing the
brake pedal. If the shift lever can be
shifted from P, there may be a prob-
lem with the shift lock system. Have
the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer
or legitimate tire retailers immedi-
ately.
