2504-5. Using the driving support systems
■If a warning message is displayed on the multi-information display
A system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be a malfunction in
the system.
●In the following situations, perform the actions specified in the table. When
the normal operating conditions are detected, the message will disappear
and the system will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact your Toyota dealer.
SituationActions
When the area around a camera is
covered with dirt, moisture (fogged
up, covered with condensation, ice,
etc.), or other foreign matterUsing the wiper and A/C function,
remove the dirt and other attached
matter. (P. 370)
When the temperature around the
front camera is outside of the opera-
tional range, such as when the vehi-
cle is in the sun or in an extremely
cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as
after the vehicle had been parked in
the sun, use the air conditioning sys-
tem to decrease the temperature
around the front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the
vehicle was parked, depending on
its type, the sunlight reflected from
the surface of the sunshade may
cause the temperature of the front
camera to become excessively high.
If the front camera is cold, such after
the vehicle is parked in an extremely
cold environment, use the air condi-
tioning system to increase the tem-
perature around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera
is obstructed, such as when the
hood is open or a sticker is attached
to the part of the windshield in front
of the front camera.Close the hood, remove the sticker,
etc. to clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collision System Radar
In Self Calibration Unavailable See
Owner’s Manual” is displayedCheck whether there is attached
materials on the radar sensor and
radar sensor cover, and if there is,
remove it.

Driving
■The system can be operated when
●The power switch is in ON mode.
●Intuitive parking assist function is on.
●The vehicle speed is less than about 6 mph (10 km/h).
●The shift lever is in other than P.
■If “Parking Assist Unavailable Clean Parking Assist Sensor” is displayed
on the multi-information display
A sensor may be dirty or covered with snow or ice. In such cases, if it is
removed from the sensor, the system should return to normal.
Also, due to the sensor being frozen at low temperatures, a malfunction dis-
play may appear or an object may not be detected. If the sensor thaws out,
the system should return to normal.
■If “Parking Assist Unavailable” is displayed on the multi-information dis-
play
Water may be continuously flowing over the sensor surface, such as in a
heavy rain. When the system determines that it is normal, the system will
return to normal.
■Sensor detection information
●The sensor’s detection areas are limited to the areas around the vehicle’s
front and rear bumpers.
●The following situations may occur during use.
• Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
• Detection may be impossible if static objects draw too close to the sen-
sor.
• There will be a short delay between static object detection and display
(warning buzzer sounds). Even at low speeds, there is a possibility that
the object will come within 1.0 ft. (30 cm) before the display is shown and
the warning buzzer sounds.
• It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio sys-
tem or air flow noise of the air conditioning system.
• It may be difficult to hear the sound of this system due to the buzzers of
other systems.
■Objects which the system may not be properly detected
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay partic-
ular attention to the following objects:
●Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
●Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
●Sharply-angled objects
●Low objects
●Tall objects with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your
vehicle

■Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision
Instances of the RCTA function unnecessary detecting a vehicle and/or object
may increase in the following situations:
●When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow
●When there are spinning objects near your vehicle such as the fan of an air
conditioning unit
●When water is splashed or sprayed a sprinkler
●Moving objects (flags, exhaust fumes, large rain droplets or snowflakes, rain
water on the road surface, etc.) ●When the parking space faces a street
and vehicles are being driven on the
street
●When the distance between your vehicle
and metal objects, such as a guardrail,
wall, sigh, or parked vehicle, which may
reflect electrical waves toward the rear
of the vehicle, is short
●When a vehicle passes by the side of
your vehicle
●When a detected vehicle turns while
approaching the vehicle

3384-5. Using the driving support systems
• When water droplets are flowing on the camera lens
• When the vehicle height is extremely changed (nose up, nose down)
• When tire chains is used
■Situations in which the system may operate unexpectedly
●Even though there are no pedestrians in the detection area, some objects,
such as the following, may be detected, possibly causing the rear camera
detection function to operate.
• Three dimensional objects, such as a pole, traffic cone, fence, or parked
vehicle
• Moving objects, such as a car or motorcycle
• Objects moving toward your vehicle when backing up, such as flags or
puddles (or airborne matter, such as smoke, steam, rain, or snow)
• Cobblestone or gravel roads, tram rails, road repairs, white lines, pedes-
trian crossings or fallen leaves on the road
• Metal covers (gratings), such as those used for drainage ditches
• Objects reflected in a puddle or on a wet road surface
• Shadows on the road

scratched
• When water is flowing over the rear camera lens
• If there is a flashing light in the detection area, such as the emergency
flashers of another vehicle
• When a tire chains is used
●Situations in which the rear camera detection function may be difficult to
notice
• If buzzer may be difficult to hear if the surrounding area is noisy, the vol-
ume of the audio system volume is high, the air conditioning system is
being used, etc.
• If the temperature in the cabin is extremely high or low, the audio system
screen may not operate correctly.

3564-5. Using the driving support systems
■Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode controls the heating/cooling operations and fan speed of the
air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency (P. 366). To improve air
conditioning performance, adjust the fan speed or turn off Eco drive mode.
■Auto Glide Control
When Auto Glide Control operates, the AGC indicator light will illuminate.
●Auto Glide Control may not operate in the following situations:
• When the brake pedal is depressed
• When a shift position other than D is selected
• When the vehicle speed is approximately 10 mph (15 km/h) or lower
• When the vehicle is accelerating on a downward slope
• When the PCS (Pre-Collision System) is operating
• When the dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range is operating
• When the Parking Support Brake system is operating
• When the TRAC or VSC system is operating
• When the TRAC or VSC system is disabled by pressing the VSC OFF
switch
■Sport mode automatic deactivation
Sport mode is automatically deactivated if the power switch is turned off after
driving in sport mode. ●While driving in Eco drive mode with D
selected, releasing the accelerator
pedal will activate Auto Glide Control
under certain conditions. (Auto Glide
Control may activate before the acceler-
ator pedal is fully released.)
When Auto Glide Control operates, the
electric motor (traction motor) will be
controlled, reducing the deceleration
force and allowing the vehicle to coast,
enhancing fuel economy.

4-6. Driving tips
◆Using Eco drive mode
When using Eco drive mode, the torque corresponding to the accel-
erator pedal depression amount can be generated more smoothly
than it is in normal conditions. In addition, the operation of the air
conditioning system (heating/cooling) will be minimized, improving
the fuel economy. (P. 355)
◆Use of Hybrid System Indicator
The Eco-friendly driving is possible by keeping the needle of Hybrid
System Indicator within Eco area. (P. 102)
◆Shift lever operation
Shift the shift lever to D when stopped at a traffic light, or driving in
heavy traffic etc. Shift the shift lever to P when parking. When using
the N, there is no positive effect on fuel consumption. In the N, the
gasoline engine operates but electricity cannot be generated. Also,
when using the air conditioning system, etc., the hybrid battery
(traction battery) power is consumed.
◆Accelerator pedal/brake pedal operation
●Drive your vehicle smoothly. Avoid abrupt acceleration and
deceleration. Gradual acceleration and deceleration will make
more effective use of the electric motor (traction motor) without
having to use gasoline engine power.
●Avoid repeated acceleration. Repeated acceleration consumes
hybrid battery (traction battery) power, resulting in poor fuel con-
sumption. Battery power can be restored by driving with the
accelerator pedal slightly released.
Hybrid vehicle driving tips
For economical and ecological driving, pay attention to the fol-
lowing points:

3584-6. Driving tips
◆When braking
Make sure to operate the brakes gently and in a timely manner. A
greater amount of electrical energy can be regenerated when slow-
ing down.
◆Delays
Repeated acceleration and deceleration, as well as long waits at
traffic lights, will lead to bad fuel economy. Check traffic reports
before leaving and avoid delays as much as possible. When driving
in a traffic jam, gently release the brake pedal to allow the vehicle to
move forward slightly while avoiding overuse of the accelerator
pedal. Doing so can help control excessive gasoline consumption.
◆Highway driving
Control and maintain the vehicle at a constant speed. Before stop-
ping at a toll booth or similar, allow plenty of time to release the
accelerator and gently apply the brakes. A greater amount of elec-
trical energy can be regenerated when slowing down.
◆Air conditioning
Use the air conditioning only when necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive gasoline consumption.
In summer: When the ambient temperature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to reduce the burden on the air
conditioning system and reduce fuel consumption as well.
In winter: Because the gasoline engine will not automatically cut out
until it and the interior of the vehicle are warm, it will consume fuel.
Also, fuel consumption can be improved by avoiding overuse of the
heater.
◆Checking tire inflation pressure
Make sure to check the tire inflation pressure frequently. Improper
tire inflation pressure can cause poor fuel economy.
Also, as snow tires can cause large amounts of friction, their use on
dry roads can lead to poor fuel economy. Use tires that are appro-
priate for the season.
