1-2. Child safety
WARNING
■When installing a child restraint system
For safety reasons, always install a child restraint system in a rear seat. In the event that the rear seat cannot be
used, the front seat can be used as long as the airbag manual on-off sys-tem is set to “OFF”.
If the airbag manual on-off system is left on, the strong impact of the airbag deployment (inflation) may cause
serious injury or even death.
■When a child restraint system is
not installed on the front passen- ger seat
Ensure that the airbag manual on-off
system is set to “ON”. If it is left off, the airbag may not deploy in the event of an accident,
which may result in serious injury or even death.
Riding with children
Observe the following precau-
tions when children are in the
vehicle.
Use a child restraint system
appropriate for the child, until
the child becomes large
enough to properly wear the
vehicle’s seat belt.
 It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to
avoid accidental contact with
the steering wheel, wiper
switch, etc.
 Use the rear door child-protec-
tor lock or the window lock
switch to avoid children open-
ing the door while driving or
operating the power window
accidentally. ( P.188, 221)
Do not let small children oper-
ate equipment which may
catch or pinch body parts,
such as the power window,
hood, back door, seats, etc.
WARNING
■When children are in the vehicle
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle, and never allow children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi- cle or shift the vehicle into neutral. There is also a danger that children
may injure themselves by playing with the windows or other features of the vehicle. In addition, heat build-up or
extremely cold temperatures inside the vehicle can be fatal to children.

4-4. Adjusting the steering wheel and mirrors
1Fold
2 Extend
Putting the outside rear view mirror
folding switch in the neutral position
sets the mirrors to automatic mode.
Automatic mode allows the folding
or extending of the mirrors to be
linked to locking/unlocking of the
doors.
■Using automatic mode in cold
weather
When automatic mode is used in cold weather, the door mirror could freeze up
and automatic stowing and return may not be possible. In this event, after removing any ice and snow from the
door mirror, operate the mirror using manual mode or move it by hand.
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.
(Customizable features: P.566)
When the mirror select switch is in
the “L” or “R” position, the outside
rear view mirrors will automatically
angle downwards when the vehicle
is reversing in order to give a better
view of the ground.
To disable this function, move the
mirror select switch to the neutral
position (between “L” or “R”)
■Adjusting the mirror angle
when the vehicle is reversing
With the shift position in R, adjust
the mirror angle at a desired posi-
tion.
The adjusted angle will be memo-
rized and the mirror will automati-
cally tilt to the memorized angle
whenever the shift position is
shifted to R from next time.
The memorized downward tilt position
of the mirror is linked to the normal
position (angle adjusted with the shift
position in other than R). Therefore, if
the normal position is changed after
adjustment, the tilt position will also
change.
When the normal position is changed,
readjust the angle in reversing.
Folding and extending the
mirrors
WARNING
■When a mirror is moving
To avoid personal injury and mirror malfunction, be careful not to get your hand caught by the moving mirror.

■Seat positions that can be memo-rized ( P.208)
The adjusted positions other than the position adjusted by lumbar support switch can be recorded.
■Operating the driving position
memory after turning the power switch to OFF
Recorded seat positions can be acti-
vated up to 180 seconds after the driver’s door is opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again.
■In order to correctly use the driving
position memory function
If a seat position is already in the fur- thest possible position and the seat is
operated in the same direction, the recorded position may be slightly differ-ent when it is recalled.
■When recalling the driving position
Take care so that a head restraint does not contact the ceiling or a sun visor.
■If the 12-volt battery is discon-nected
The memorized positions are erased.
■When the recorded seat position cannot be recalled
The seat position may not be recalled in
some situations when the seat position is recorded in a certain range. For details, contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■Jam protection function
While the driving position is recalled or
the power easy access system is oper- ating, if an object is stuck behind the front seat, the front seat will stop and
then slightly move forward. When the jam protection function operates, the seat stops at a position other than the
set seat position. Check the seat posi- tion.
■Registering procedure
Record your driving position to but-
ton “1” or “2” before performing the
following:
Carry only the key you want to reg-
ister, and then close the driver’s
door.
If 2 or more keys are in the vehicle,
the driving position cannot be
recorded properly.
1 Check that the shift position is in
P.
2 Turn the power switch to ON.
3 Recall the driving position that
you want to record.
4 While pressing the recalled but-
ton, press and hold the door
lock switch (either lock or
unlock) until the buzzer sounds.

5-1. Before driving
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain,
because the road surface will be especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driv-ing 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.
■Restraining the EV system output
(Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake ped-
als are depressed at the same time, the EV system output may be restrained.
●A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the
system is operating.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ- ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
●For the first 1000 km (621 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the
“READY” indicator is illuminated. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and
accelerator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel- erator pedal instead of the brake pedal will result in sudden accelera-
tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to diffi- culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the
vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera-tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake
pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-ing in an accident.
●The driver should pay extra atten-tion to pedestrians. As there is no
engine noise, the pedestrians may misjudge the vehicle’s movement. Even though the vehicle is
equipped with the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System, drive with care as pedestrians in the vicinity may still
not notice the vehicle if the sur- rounding area is noisy.
●During normal driving, do not turn off the EV system. Turning the EV system off while driving will not
cause loss of steering or braking control, however, power assist to the steering will be lost. This will
make it more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is
safe to do so. In the event of an emergency, such as if it becomes impossible to stop the vehicle in the
normal way: P. 5 0 6
