●The standard battery life is 1 to 2 
years.
●If the battery becomes low, an 
alarm will sound in the cabin and a 
message will be shown on the 
multi-information  display when the 
engine is stopped.
●To reduce key battery depletion 
when the electronic key is to not 
be used for long periods of time, 
set the electronic key to the bat-
tery-saving mode. ( P.121)
●As the electronic key always 
receives radio waves, the battery 
will become depleted even if the 
electronic key is not used. The fol-
lowing symptoms indicate that the 
electronic key battery may be 
depleted. Replace the battery 
when necessary. ( P.333)

• Personal computers
• Cellular phones, cordless phones  and battery chargers
• Recharging cellular phones or 
cordless phones
• Table lamps
• Induction cookers
●If the electronic key is near the 
vehicle for longer than necessary, 
even if the smart key system is not 
operated, the key battery may 
become depleted faster than nor-
mal.

properly if it comes into contact 
with ice, snow, mud, etc. Clean 
the lock sensor and attempt to 
operate it again.
●A sudden handle operation or a 
handle operation immediately 
after entering the effective range 
may prevent the doors from being 
unlocked. Touch the door unlock 
sensor and check that the doors 
are unlocked befo re pulling the 
door handle again.
●If there is another electronic key in 
the detection area, it may take 
slightly longer to unlock the doors 
after the door handle is gripped.
■When the vehicle is not driven 
for extended periods
●To prevent theft of  the vehicle, do 
not leave the electronic key within 
6 ft. (2 m) of the vehicle.
●The smart key system can be 
deactivated in advance. ( P.412)
●Setting the electronic key to bat-
tery-saving mode helps to reduce 
key battery depletion. ( P.121)
■To operate the system properly
●Make sure to carry the electronic 
key when operating the system. 
Do not get the electronic key too 
close to the vehicle when operat-
ing the system from the outside of 
the vehicle.
Depending on the position and hold-

1444-1. Before driving
■Engine speed while driving
In the following  conditions, the 
engine speed may become high 
while driving. This is due to auto-
matic up-shifting control or 
down-shifting implementation to 
meet driving conditions. It does not 
indicate sudden acceleration.
●The vehicle is judged to be driving 
uphill or downhill
●When the accelerator pedal is 
released
●When the brake pedal is 
depressed while sport mode is 
selected (if equipped)
■Restraining the engine output 
(Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake 
pedals are depressed at the same 
time, the engine output may be 
restrained.
●A warning messag e is displayed 
on the multi-information display 
while the system is operating.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, 
observing the following precautions 
is recommended:
●For the first 186  miles (300 km):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 621  miles (1000 km):
• Do not drive at extremely high 
speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low  gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed  for extended periods.
■Operating your vehicle in a for-
eign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle 
registration laws and confirm the 
availability of the correct fuel. 
(  P.393)
WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
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 engine running. This prevents 
the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if  you are unfamil-
iar with the location of the brake 
and accelerator pedals to avoid 
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the  accelerator pedal instead of the 
brake pedal will result in sudden 
acceleration that may lead to an 
accident.
• When backing up, you may twist  your body around, leading to a 
difficulty in operating the pedals. 
Make sure to operate the pedals 
properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct  driving posture even when mov-
ing the vehicle only slightly. This 
allows you to depress the brake 
and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using  your right foot. Depressing the 
brake pedal using your left foot 
may delay response in an emer-
gency, resulting in an accident.
●Do not drive the vehicle over or 
stop the vehicle near flammable 
materials.
The exhaust system and 
exhaust gases can be 
extremely hot. These hot parts 
may cause a fire i f there is any 
flammable material nearby.

Cargo capacity depends on the 
total weight of the occupants.
(Cargo capacity) = (Total load 
capacity) — (Total weight of 
occupants)
Steps for Determining Correct 
Load Limit —
(1) Locate the statement “The 
combined weight of occupants 
and cargo should never exceed 
XXX kg or XXX lbs.” on your 
vehicle’s placard.
(2) Determine the combined 
weight of the driver and passen-
gers that will be riding in your 
vehicle.
(3) Subtract the combined 
weight of the driver and passen-
gers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
(4) The resulting figure equals 
the available amount of cargo 
and luggage load capacity.
For example, if the “XXX” 
amount equals 1400 lbs. and 
there will be five 150 lb passen-
gers in your vehicle, the amount 
of available cargo and luggage 
load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400 −
