position/mode, the parking brake
indicator light will turn on and stay
on as described below:
ON: Comes on until the parking
brake is released.
Not in ON: Stays on for approxi-
mately 15 seconds.
●When the engine switch is turned
off with the parking brake set, the
parking brake indicator light will
stay on for about 15 seconds. This
does not indicate a malfunction.
■When the parking brake switch
malfunctions
Automatic mode (automatic brake
setting and releas ing) will be turned
on automatically.
■Parking the vehicle
 P. 1 4 3
■Parking brake engaged warning
buzzer
A buzzer will sound if the vehicle is
driven with the parking brake
engaged. “Parking Brake ON” is dis-
played on the multi-information dis-
play (with the vehicle reaching a
speed of 3 mph [5 km/h]).

WARNING
■When parking the vehicle
Do not leave a child in the vehicle
alone. The parking brake may be
released unintentionally by a child
and there is the danger of the
vehicle moving that may lead to
an accident resulting in death or
serious injury.
■Parking brake switch
Do not set any objects near the
parking brake switch.
Objects may inte rfere with the
switch and may lead the parking
brake to unexpectedly operate.
■Parking brake automatic lock
function
Never use the automatic parking
brake engagement function in
place of normal parking brake
operation. This function is
designed to reduce the risk of a
collision due to the driver forget-
ting to engage the parking brake.
Over-reliance on this function to
park the vehicle safely may lead
to an accident resulting in death
or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When parking the vehicle
Before you leave the vehicle, shift
the shift lever to P, set the parking
brake and make s ure that the
vehicle does not move.
■When the system malfunc-
tions
Stop the vehicle in a safe place
and check the warning messages.
■When the vehicle battery is
discharged
The parking brake system cannot
be activated. ( P.383)
■When the parking brake can-
not be released due to a mal-
function
Driving the vehicle with the park-
ing brake set will lead to brake
components overheating, which
may affect braking performance
and increase brake wear.
Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer immediately if
this occurs.

Driving
4-6.Driving tips
Use fluids that are appropriate
to the prevailing outside tem-
peratures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Washer fluid
Have a service technician
inspect the condition of the
battery.
 Have the vehicle fitted with
four snow tires or purchase a
set of tire chains for the front
tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same
size and brand, and that chains
match the size of the tires.
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary
preparations and inspec-
tions before driving the
vehicle in winter. Always
drive the vehicle in a man-
ner appropriate to the pre-
vailing weather conditions.
Pre-winter preparations
WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so m ay result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Use tires of the size specified.
●Maintain the recommended
level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75
mph (120 km/h), regardless of
the type of snow tires being
used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just
some wheels.
■Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so may result in the
vehicle being unable to be driven
safely, and may cause death or
serious injury.
●Do not drive in excess of the
speed limit specifi ed for the tire
chains being used, or 30 mph
(50 km/h), whichever is lower.
●Avoid driving on bumpy road
surfaces or over potholes.
●Avoid sudden acceleration,
abrupt steering, sudden brak-
ing and shifting operations that
cause sudden engine braking.
●Slow down sufficiently before
entering a curve to ensure that
vehicle control is maintained.
●Do not use LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist) system.
●Do not use LDA (Lane Depar-
ture Alert) system.
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow
tires (vehicles with a tire pres-
sure warning system)
Request repairs or replacement of
snow tires from Toyota dealers or
legitimate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and
attachment of snow tires affects
the operation of the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters.

many mechanisms and fluids that
may move suddenly, become hot,
or become electrically energized.
To avoid death or serious injury,
observe the following precautions.
■When working on the engine
compartment
●Keep hands, clothing and tools
away from the moving fan and
engine drive belt.
●Be careful not to touch the
engine, radiator , exhaust mani-
fold, etc. right a fter driving as
they may be hot . Oil and other
fluids may also be hot.
●Do not leave anything that may
burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the engine compart-
ment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or
expose an open flame to fuel or
the battery. Fuel and battery
fumes are flammable.
ItemsParts and tools●Be extremely cautious when
working on the battery. It con-
tains poisonous and corrosive
sulfuric acid.
■When working near the elec-
tric cooling fan or radiator
grille
Be sure the engine switch is OFF.
With the engine switch in ON, the
electric cooling fa n may automati-
cally start to run if the air condi-
tioning is on and/or the coolant
temperature is high. ( P.307)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent
flying or falling material, fluid
spray, etc. from getting in your
eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner
filter
Driving with the air cleaner filter
removed may cause excessive
engine wear due to dirt in the air.

Maintenance and care
■When registering ID codes
●Normally, ID codes registration
can be completed within approxi-
mately 30 minutes.
●ID code registration is performed
while driving at a vehicle speed of
approximately 25 mph (40 km/h)
or more.
■If ID codes are not registered
easily
●In the following situations, ID code
registration may take longer than
usual to be completed or may not
be possible.
• When the vehicle has not been
parked for appro ximately 20 min-
utes or more bef ore being driven
• Vehicle is not driven at approxi-
mately 25 mph ( 40 km/h) or more
• Vehicle is driven on unpaved roads
• Vehicle is driven near other vehi- cles and system cannot recog-
nize tire pressure warning valve
and transmitters of your vehicle
over those of other vehicles
• Wheel with tire p ressure warning
valve and transmitter installed is
inside or near the vehicle
●If the vehicle is reversed during
registration, all da ta collected until
then will be cleared. Perform driv-
ing again.
●If the tire pressure warning light
does not blink 3 times when start-
ing ID code registration proce-
dure to step 8, the procedure may
not have started. Perform the pro-
cedure again from the beginning.
●If registration doe s not complete
after driving for 1 hour or more,
perform the ID c ode registration
procedure again from the begin-
ning.
●If the ID codes cannot be regis-
tered even when performing the
above procedure, contact your
Toyota dealer.
■Canceling ID code registration
To cancel ID code registration after
it has been started , select “Register
Valve / ID” again on the multi-infor-
mation display.
If ID code registration has been can-
celed, the tire pressure warning light
will turn off.
If the warning light does not turn off,
ID code registration may not have
been cancelled correctly. To cancel
registration, select “Register Valve /
ID” on the multi-in formation display.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
tire pressure warning system
with a function to register two
sets of ID codes. This allows for
registration of a second wheel
set, for example a winter set.
The wheel set can be changed
only if a second wheel set has
been registered to the system. If
a second wheel set has not
been registered, it will not be
possible to change to the
selected wheel set.
ID codes can be registered by
yourself.
Only a change between both
registered wheel set is possi-
ble, mixing between these
wheel sets is not supported.
 While registering ID codes, it
may not be possible to
change between wheel sets
normally. Cancel registration
