To defog or defrost the rear window,
push the switch.
The ignition switch must be set at ON.
The thin heater wires on the inside of the
rear window will quickly clear the sur-
faces. An indicator light will illuminate to
indicate the defogger is operating.
On some models, heater panels in the
outside rear view mirrors will also quickly
clear the surfaces.
Push the switch once again to turn the
defogger off.
The system will automatically shut off
when the operation time has been com-
pleted. The operation time is between 15
minutes and 1 hour depending on the am-
bient temperature and vehicle speed.
CAUTION
Since the mirror surfaces can get hot
do not touch them when the defogger
switch is on.
Make sure you turn the defoggers off
when the surfaces are clear. Leaving the
defoggers on for a long time could cause
the battery to discharge, especially during
stop−and−go driving. The defoggers are
not designed for drying rain water or for
melting snow.
If the outside rear view mirrors are heavi-
ly coated with ice, use a spray de−icer
before operating the switch.

window, be careful not to scratch or
damage the heater wires or connec-
tors.

change reaches 8000 km (5000 miles), the
message appears with the master warning
light and a warning tone sounds. The
message stays on with the ignition switch
on.
The engine oil maintenance data must be
reset after the engine oil change. See

When the key is in the vehicle, press-
ing the “ENGINE START STOP” switch
(engine switch) allows you to start and
stop the engine or choose at the ACC,
ON, or ignition switch off.
When the brake pedal is not depressed,
pressing the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch changes the ignition switch mode
as follows. Press the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch slowly and firmly.First time—ACC (accessory) mode (illu-
minate amber)
Accessories such as the radio operate.
Second time—ON mode (illuminate am-
ber)
All accessories on.
Third time—Power off (indicator light
off)
Pressing the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch again returns the ignition switch to
ACC.If a buzzer sounds and the master
warning light comes on for 5 seconds
when pressing the “ENGINE START
STOP” switch, this indicates that the key
is not in the vehicle. The “KEY IS NOT
DETECTED” message will also appear on
the multi−information display.
If the brake pedal is depressed, the in-
dicator light will turn green, regardless
of which mode is selected. When the
indicator light is green, pressing the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch once

When the engine switch is changed from
ON (with the engine off) to off and then
changed to ACC, “DEPRESS THE BRAKE
PEDAL” is appeared on the multi−informa-
tion display.
If the amber indicator light on the
“ENGINE START STOP” switch blinks, this
indicates a malfunction of the push start
system. Turn off the engine immediately
and contact your Toyota dealer.
It is not a malfunction if the needle on all
meters and gauges move slightly when the
ignition switch is set at ACC, ON or when
the engine starts.
NOTICE
Do not leave the ignition switch at
ON if the engine is not running. The
battery will discharge and the ignition
could be damaged.
When the battery is disconnected or
run down, the push button start function
memorizes the current mode. After you
reconnect, replace, or recharge the bat-
tery, the memorized mode is selected au-
tomatically. In any of these cases, turn off
the engine if the engine comes on.

(b) Normal driving
1. Start the engine as instructed in “How
to start the engine” on page 316 in
Section 3. The transmission must be in
“P” or “N”.
2. With your foot holding down the brake
pedal, shift the selector lever to “D”.
When the lever is in the “D” position, the
automatic transmission system will select
the most suitable gear for running condi-
tions such as normal cruising, hill climb-
ing, hard towing, etc.
Always use the “D” position for better fuel
economy and quieter driving. In this posi-
tion, shifting into the overdrive gear is
possible. If the engine coolant temperature
is low, the transmission will not shift into
the overdrive gear even in the “D” posi-
tion.
CAUTION
Never put your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal while shifting.
3. Release the parking brake and brake
pedal. Depress the accelerator pedal
slowly for smooth starting.AI (Artificial Intelligence) shifting con-
trol—
AI shifting control selects the most
suitable shift range automatically ac-
cording to the driver’s operation and
driving condition.
AI shifting control operates automatical-
ly with the selector lever in the “D”
position. When the lever is moved to
the “S” position, this function will be
cancelled.
Shifting control on the slope:
On inclines, you can drive smoothly
with reduced shifting quantity. On de-
clines, the vehicle will shift down auto-
matically to obtain optimum engine
braking and reduce the driver ’s foot
braking load.
Automatic shifting point change con-
trol:
The most suitable shift range is se-
lected depending on the driver ’s accel-
erator pedal operation and vehicle con-
dition.(c) Driving in “S” mode
You can change the shift range position
in the “S” mode. The shift range posi-
tion can be switched between “6” (sixth
range) and “1” (first range) by moving
the selector lever up to the “+” side or
down to the “–” side. When the selec-
tor lever is shifted to the “S” position,
the initial shift range position is “4”
(fourth range) or “5” (fifth range) de-
pending on the vehicle speed.
However, if the selector lever is shifted
to the “S” position when AI shifting
control is being performed, the initial
shift range position may be “3” (third
range). This is because the suitable
shift range is selected depending on
the driving condition.
The “S” mode indicator light and the cur-
rent shift range position are shown on the
instrument cluster.

Maximum allowable speeds
To get on a highway or to pass slower
traffic, maximum acceleration may be nec-
essary. Make sure you observe the follow-
ing maximum allowable speeds in each
range:
range km/h (mph)
1 60 (37)
2 104 (65)
3 139 (86)
4 198 (123)
NOTICE
Do not downshift if you are going
faster than the maximum allowable
speed for the next lower range.
When the “S” mode indicator light does
not come on even with the selector lever
moved to the sequential position, there
may be a problem somewhere in the
system. Have your vehicle checked/re-
paired by your Toyota dealer as soon as
possible. In this case, you can drive in
the same condition as in the “D” position.(d) Using engine braking
To use engine braking, you can downshift
the transmission as follows:
When driving in the “D” position—
Shift the selector lever to the “S”
position.
When driving in the “6” range within
the “S” position—
Move the selector lever down to the
“–” side to select the “5” range.
The transmission will downshift to fifth
range and engine braking will be en-
abled.
Vehicles with cruise control—when the
cruise control is being used, even if
you downshift the transmission, engine
braking will not be enabled because
the cruise control is not cancelled.
For ways to decrease the vehicle
speed, see “Cruise control” on page
181 in this Section.
Move the selector lever down to the
“−” side to select the “4” range. The
transmission will downshift to fourth
range when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than 169 km/h (105
mph), and stronger engine braking will
be enabled.
Vehicles with cruise control—when the
cruise control is being used, even if
you downshift the transmission, engine
braking will not be enabled because
the cruise control is not cancelled.
Move the selector lever down to the
“−” side to select the “3” range. The
transmission will downshift to third
range when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than 121 km/h (75
mph), and more powerful engine brak-
ing than that of the “4” range position
will be enabled.
Move the selector lever down to the
“−” side to select the “2” range. The
transmission will downshift to second
range when the vehicle speed drops
down to or lower than 87 km/h (54
mph), and more powerful engine brak-
ing will be enabled.
