1524-2. Driving procedures
COROLLA_Uhour with the shift
lever in P, the
engine switch will automatically turn
off. However, this function cannot
entirely prevent battery discharge.
Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine switch in ACC or ON for long
periods of time when the engine is
not running.
Manual transmission: If the vehicle
is left in ACC for more than 20 min-
utes or ON (the engine is not run-
ning) for more than an hour, the
engine switch will automatically turn
off. However, this function cannot
entirely prevent battery discharge.
Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine switch in ACC or ON for long
periods of time when the engine is
not running.
If the engine is stopped with the
shift lever in a position other
than P, the engine switch will not
be turned off but instead be
turned to ACC. Perform the fol-
lowing procedure to turn the
switch off: 1
Check that the parking brake
is set.
2 Shift the shift lever to P.
3 Check that “ACCESSORY” is
displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display and press the
engine switch shortly and
firmly.
4 Check that “ACCESSORY”
or “IGNITION ON” on the
multi-information display are
off.
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
●Do not leave the engine switch
in ACC or ON for long periods of
time without the engine running.
●If “ACCESSORY” or “IGNITION
ON” is displayed on the
multi-information display, the
engine switch is not off. Exit the
vehicle after turning the engine
switch off.
When stopping the engine
with the shift lever in a
position other than P
(vehicles with a continu-
ously variable transmis-
sion)
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not stop the engine when the
shift lever is in a position other
than P. If the engine is stopped in
another shift lever position, the
engine switch will not be turned
off but instead be turned to ACC
mode. If the vehicle is left in ACC,
battery discharge may occur.

*: If equipped
*: To improve fuel efficiency and reduce noise, shift the shift lever
to D for normal driving.
■When driving with the dynamic
radar cruise control or dynamic
radar cruise control with
full-speed range activated
Even when switching the driving
mode to sport mode with the intent
of enabling engine braking, engine
braking will not occur because
dynamic radar cruise control or
dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range will not be can-
celed. (

■G AI-SHIFT
G AI-SHIFT automatically selects a
suitable gear for sporty driving
according to driver’s input and driv-
ing conditions. G AI-SHIFT operates
automatically when the shift lever is
in D and sport mode is selected for
the driving mode. (Selecting normal
mode or shifting the shift lever to the
B position cancels this function.)
■After recharging/reconnecting
the battery

■Continuously variable transmis-
sion fail-safe control
The system detects malfunctioning
parts targeted (all of the solenoids
that perform the shifting function) by
the On-Board Diagnostics, and per-
forms fail-safe me chanisms, such
as restricting the shifting function or
transmission ratio control.
In this event, the malfunction indica-
tor lamp turns on.

*: If equipped
Each time the switch is pressed, the
system changes between sport
mode and normal mode.
1 Normal mode
Provides an optimal balance of fuel
economy, quietness, and dynamic
performance. Suitable for normal
driving.
2Sport mode
Controls the transmission and
engine to provide quick, powerful
acceleration. This mode also
changes the steering feel, making it
suitable for when agile driving
response is desired, such as when
driving on roads with many curves.
When the sport mode is selected,
sport mode indicator comes on.
■Automatic deactivation of sport
mode
If the engine switch is turned off
after driving in sport mode, the drive
NOTICE
• When cleaning the camera lens, flush the camera with a large
quantity of water and wipe it
with a soft and wet cloth.
Strongly rubbing the camera
lens may cause the camera lens
to be scratched and unable to
transmit a clear image.
• Do not allow organic solvent, car wax, window cleaner or
glass coating to adhere to the
camera. If this happens, wipe it
off as soon as possible.
• If the temperature changes rap- idly, such as when hot water is
poured on the vehicle in cold
weather, the system may not
operate normally.
• When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of
water to the camera or camera
area. Doing so may result in the
camera malfunctioning.
●Do not expose the camera to
strong impact as this could
cause a malfunction. If this hap-
pens, have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
as soon as possible.
