■Before using LDA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LDA
system. The LDA system does
not automatically drive the vehi-
cle or reduce the amount of
attention that must be paid to
the area in front of the vehicle.
The driver must always assume
full responsibility for driving
safely by paying careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions and operating the steering
wheel to correct the path of the
vehicle. Also, the driver must
take adequate breaks when
fatigued, such as from driving
for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate
driving operations and pay care-
ful attention may lead to an
accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●When not using the LDA sys-
tem, use the LDA switch to turn
the system off.
■Situations unsuitable for LDA
system
In the following situations, use the
LDA switch to turn the system off.
Failure to do so may lead to an
accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road sur-
face which is slippery due to
rainy weather, fallen snow,
freezing, etc.
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-cov-
ered road.
●White (yellow) lin es are difficult
to see due to rain, snow, fog,
dust, etc.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc. are
equipped.
●When the tires have been
excessively worn, or when the
tire inflation p ressure is low.
●When tires of a size other than
specified are installed.
●Vehicle is driven in traffic lanes
other than that highways and
freeways.
●During emergency towing.
■Preventing LDA system mal-
functions and operations per-
formed by mistake
●Do not modify the headlights or
place stickers, etc. on the sur-
face of the lights.
●Do not modify the suspension
etc. If the suspension etc. needs
to be replaced, contact your
Toyota dealer.
●Do not install or place anything
on the hood or grille. Also, do
not install a gr ille guard (bull
bars, kangaroo bar, etc.).
●If your windshield needs
repairs, contact your Toyota
dealer.
■Conditions in which functions
may not operate properly
In the following situations, the
functions may not operate prop-
erly and the vehicle may depart
from its lane. Drive safely by
always paying careful attention to
your surroundings and operate
the steering whee l to correct the
path of the vehicle without relying
solely on the functions.
●Vehicle is being driven around a
sharp curve.

■When the electric power
steering system warning light
comes on
When the light comes on yellow,
the assist to the power steering is
restricted. When the light comes
on red, the assist to the power
steering is lost and handling oper-
ations of the steering wheel
become extremely heavy.
When steering wheel operations
are heavier than usual, grip the
steering wheel firmly and operate
it using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning
light comes on (vehicles with
a tire pressure warning sys-
tem)
Be sure to observe the following
precautions.
Failure to do so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result
in death or serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place
as soon as possible. Adjust the
tire inflation pressure immedi-
ately.
●Vehicles with a compact spare
tire: If the tire pr essure warning
light comes on ev en after tire
inflation pressure adjustment, it
is probable that you have a flat
tire. Check the ti res. If a tire is
flat, change it with the spare tire
and have the flat tire repaired by
the nearest Toy ota dealer.
●Vehicles with emergency tire
puncture repair kit: If the tire
pressure warning light comes
on even after tire inflation pres-
sure adjustment, it is probable
that you have a flat tire. Check
the tires. If a tire is flat, repair
the flat tire by using emergency
tire puncture repair kit.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and
braking.
If the vehicle tires deteriorate,
you could lose control of the
steering wheel or the brakes.
■If a blowout or sudden air
leakage should occur (vehi-
cles with a tire pressure warn-
ing system)
The tire pressure warning system
may not activate immediately.
■Maintenance of the tires
Each tire, includi ng the spare (if
provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to
the inflation pressure recom-
mended by the vehicle manufac-
turer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label (tire and
load information label). (If your
vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size in dicated on the
vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label [tire and load infor-
mation label], you should deter-
mine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your
vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS-tire pressure warning sys-
tem) that illuminates a low tire
pressure telltale (tire pressure
warning light) w hen one or more
of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when
the low tire pressure telltale (tire
pressure warning light) illumi-
nates, you should stop and check
your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a signifi-
cantly under-inflat ed tire causes
the tire to overhea t and can lead
to tire failure. Under-inflation also
reduces fuel efficiency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehi-
cle’s handling and stopping ability.

NOTICE
■If “High Power Consumption
Partial Limit on AC/Heater
Operation” is displayed fre-
quently
There is a possible malfunction
relating to the ch arging system or
the battery may be deteriorating.
Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
If you have a flat tire
(vehicles without
spare tire)
Your vehicle is not equipped
with a spare tire, but instead
is equipped with an emer-
gency tire puncture repair
kit.
A puncture caused by a nail
or screw passing through
the tire tread can be
repaired temporarily using
the emergency tire puncture
repair kit. (The kit contains a
bottle of sealant. The seal-
ant can be used only once
to temporarily repair one
tire without removing the
nail or screw from the tire.)
After temporarily repairing
the tire with the kit, have the
tire repaired or replaced by
your Toyota dealer.
WA R N I N G
■If you have a flat tire
Do not continue driving with a flat
tire.
Driving even a sho rt distance with
a flat tire can damage the tire and
the wheel beyond repair, which
could result in an accident.
Before repairing the tire

1Remove any dirt or foreign
matter from the wheel con-
tact surface.
If foreign matter is on the wheel
contact surface, the wheel nuts
may loosen while the vehicle is in
motion, causing the tire to come off.
2 Install the tire and loosely
tighten each wheel nut by
hand by approximately the
same amount.
When replacing a steel wheel with
a steel wheel (including a compact
spare tire), tighte n the wheel nuts
until the tapered portion comes
into loose contact with the disc wheel seat .
When replacing an aluminum wheel
with a steel wheel (including a com-
pact spare tire), tighten the wheel
nuts until the tapered portion
comes into loose c
ontact with the
disc wheel seat .

Stow the flat tire, tire jack and
all tools.
■The compact spare tire
●The compact spare tire is identi-
fied by the label “TEMPORARY
USE ONLY” on the tire sidewall.
Use the compact spare tire tempo-
rarily, and only in an emergency.
●Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure of the compact
spare tire. ( P.564)
■When the compact spare tire is
equipped
The vehicle becomes lower when
driving with the compact spare tire
compared to when driving with stan-
dard tires.
■After completing the tire
change (vehicles with a tire
pressure warning system)
The tire pressure warning system
must be reset. ( P.481)
■When using the compact spare
tire (vehicles with a tire pres-
sure warning system)
As the compact sp are tire is not
equipped with a tire pressure warn-
ing valve and transmitter, low infla-
tion pressur e of the spar e tire will
not be indicated by the tire pressure
warning system. Also, if you replace
the compact spare tire after the tire
pressure warning light comes on,
the light remains on.
■If you have a flat front tire on a
road covered with snow or ice
Install the compact spare tire on one
of the rear wheels of the vehicle.
Perform the following steps and fit
tire chains to the front tires:
1 Replace a rear tire with the com-
pact spare tire.
2 Replace the flat front tire with the
tire removed from the rear of the
vehicle.
3 Fit tire chains to the front tires.
■When reinstalling the wheel
ornament (steel wheels except
compact spare tire)
Align the cutout of the wheel orna-
ment with the valve stem as shown
in the illustration.
WA R N I N G
■When using the compact
spare tire
●Remember that the compact
spare tire provided is specifi-
cally designed for use with your
vehicle. Do not use your com-
pact spare tire on another vehi-
cle.
●Do not use more than one com-
pact spare tires simultaneously.
●Replace the comp act spare tire
with a standard tire as soon as
possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration,
abrupt steering, sudden brak-
ing and shifting operations that
cause sudden engine braking.
