will operate:
●The shift lever is in a position 
other than P or N (when starting 
off forward/backward on an 
upward incline)
●The vehicle is stopped
●The accelerator pedal is not 
depressed
●The parking brake is not engaged
■Automatic system cancelation 
of hill-start assist control
The hill-start assist control will turn 
off in any of the following situations:
●The shift lever is shifted to P or N.
●The accelerator pedal is 
depressed
●The parking brake is engaged
●2 seconds at maximum elapsed 
after the brake pedal is released
■Sounds and vibrations caused 
by the ABS, brake assist, VSC, 
TRAC and hill-start assist con-
trol systems
●A sound may be heard from the 
engine compartment when the 
brake pedal is depressed repeat-
edly, when the engine is started or 
just after the vehicle begins to 
move. This sound does not indi-
cate that a malfunction has 
occurred in any of these systems.
●Any of the following conditions 
may occur when the above sys-
tems are operating.
None of these indicates that a 
malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the  vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard also 
after the vehicle comes to a stop.
• The brake pedal may pulsate  slightly after th e ABS  is  activated.
• The brake pedal may move down 
slightly after th e ABS  is  activated.
■Active Cornering Assist opera-
tion sounds and vibrations
When the Active Cornering Assist is 
operated, operation sounds and  vibrations may be generated from 
the brake system, but this is not a 
malfunction.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is oper-
ated, a motor sound (whirring 
sound) may be heard. This does not 
indicate a malfunction.
■Automatic reactivation of TRAC 
and VSC systems
After turning the TRAC and VSC 
systems off, the systems will be 
automatically re-enabled in the fol-
lowing situations:
●When the engine switch is turned 
off
●If only the TRAC system is turned 
off, the TRAC will  turn on when 
vehicle speed increases
If both the TRAC and VSC sys-
tems are turned off, automatic 
re-enabling will not occur when 
vehicle speed increases.
■Operating conditions of Active 
Cornering Assist
The system operates when the fol-
lowing occurs.
●TRAC/VSC can operate
●The driver is attempting to accel-
erate while turning
●The system detects that the vehi-
cle is drifting to the outer side
●The brake pedal is released
■Reduced effectiveness of the 
EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS sys-
tem is reduced to prevent the sys-
tem from overheating when there is 
frequent steering input over an 
extended period of time. The steer-
ing wheel may feel heavy as a 
result. Should this occur, refrain 
from excessive steering input or 
stop the vehicle and turn the engine 
off. The EPS syste m should return 
to normal within 10 minutes.

2724-5. Using the driving support systems
■Secondary Collision Brake 
operating conditions
The system operates when the SRS 
airbag sensor detects a collision 
while the vehicle is in motion.
However, the system does not oper-
ate in any of the following situations.
●The vehicle speed is below 6 mph 
(10 km/h)
●Components are damaged
■Secondary Collision Brake 
automatic cancellation
The system is automatically can-
celed in any of the following situa-
tions.
●The vehicle speed drops below 
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h)
●A certain amount of time elapses 
during operation
●The accelerator pedal is 
depressed a large amount
WARNING
■The ABS does not operate 
effectively when
●The limits of tire gripping perfor-
mance have been exceeded 
(such as excessively worn tires 
on a snow covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while 
driving at high speed on wet or 
slick roads.
■Stopping distance when the 
ABS is operating may exceed 
that of normal conditions
The ABS  is  not  designed to 
shorten the vehicle’s stopping dis-
tance. Always  main tain a safe dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of 
you, especially in  the following sit-
uations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or 
snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the 
road
●When driving over roads with 
potholes or uneven surfaces
■TRAC/VSC may not operate 
effectively when
Directional control and power may 
not be achievable while driving on 
slippery road surfaces, even if the 
TRAC/VSC system is operating. 
Drive the vehicle carefully in con-
ditions where stability and power 
may be lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does 
not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active 
Cornering Assist. Active  Corner-
ing Assist may not operate 
effectively when accelerating 
down slopes or driving on slip-
pery road surfaces.
●When Active  Cornering Assist 
frequently operates, Active Cor-
nering Assist may temporarily 
stop operating to ensure proper 
operation of the brakes, TRAC 
and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does 
not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start 
assist control. Hill-start assist 
control may not operate effec-
tively on steep inclines and 
roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, 
hill-start assist control is not 
intended to hold the vehicle sta-
tionary for an extended period 
of time. Do not attempt to use 
hill-start assist control to hold 
the vehicle on an incline, as 
doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.

Driving
WARNING
■When the TRAC/VSC is acti-
vated
The slip indicator light flashes. 
Always drive carefully. Reckless 
driving may cause an accident. 
Exercise particular care when the 
indicator light flashes.
■When the TRAC/VSC systems 
are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at 
a speed appropriate to the road 
conditions. As these are the sys-
tems to help ensure vehicle stabil-
ity and driving force, do not turn 
the TRAC/VSC systems off 
unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the 
specified size, brand, tread pat-
tern and total load capacity. In 
addition, make sure  that the tires 
are inflated to the recommended 
tire inflation  pressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC sys-
tems will not function correctly if 
different tires are installed on the 
vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for fur-
ther information when replacing 
tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the sus-
pension
Using tires with any kind of prob-
lem or modifying the suspension 
will affect the driving assist sys-
tems, and may cause a system to 
malfunction.
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not rely solely upon the Sec-
ondary Collision Brake. This sys-
tem is designed to help reduce 
the possibility of further damage 
due to a secondary collision, how-
ever, that effect  changes accord-
ing to various conditions. Overly 
relying on the system may result 
in death or serious injury.

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.
Ensure that all tires are the same 
size and brand.
Perform the following according 
to the driving conditions:
Do not try to forcibly open a 
window or move a wiper that 
is frozen. Pour warm water 
over the frozen area to melt 
the ice. Wipe away the water 
immediately to prevent it from 
freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of 
the climate control system 
fan, remove any snow that 
has accumulated on the air 
inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
 Check for and remove any 
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 may 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.
NOTICE
■Driving with tire chains
Do not fit tire chains. Tire chains 
may damage the vehicle body 
and suspension, and adversely 
affect driving performance.
■Repairing or replacing snow 
tires
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.

excess ice or snow that may 
have accumulated on the 
exterior lights, vehicle’s roof, 
chassis, around the tires or on 
the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud 
from the bottom of your shoes 
before getting in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, 
keep a safe distance between 
you and the vehicle ahead, and 
drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.
 Park the vehicle and shift the 
shift lever to P without setting 
the parking brake. The park-
ing brake may freeze up, pre-
venting it from being released. 
If the vehicle is parked without 
setting the parking brake, 
make sure to block the 
wheels.
Failure to do so may be dan-
gerous because it may cause 
the vehicle to move unexpect-
edly, possibly leading to an 
accident.
 If the vehicle is parked without 
setting the parking brake, 
confirm that the shift lever 
cannot be moved out of P
*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is 
attempted to be shifted from P to  any other position without 
depressing the brake pedal. If the 
shift lever can be shifted from P, 
there may be a problem with the 
shift lock system. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota 
dealer immediately.
Tire chains cannot be mounted.
Snow tires should be used 
instead.When driving the vehicle

2764-6. Driving tips
Specific design characteris-
tics give it a higher center of 
gravity than ordinary passen-
ger cars. This vehicle design 
feature causes this type of 
vehicle to be more likely to 
rollover. And, utility vehicles 
have a significantly higher 
rollover rate than other types 
of vehicles.
 An advantage of the higher 
ground clearance is a better 
view of the road allowing you 
to anticipate problems.
 It is not designed for corner-
ing at the same speeds as 
ordinary passenger cars any 
more than low-slung sports 
cars are designed to perform 
satisfactorily under off-road 
conditions. Therefore, sharp 
turns at excessive speeds 
may cause the vehicle to roll-
over.
Utility vehicle precau-
tions
This vehicle belongs to the 
utility vehicle class, which 
has higher ground clear-
ance and narrower tread in 
relation to the height of its 
center of gravity.
Utility vehicle feature
WARNING
■Utility vehicle precautions
Always observe the following pre-
cautions to minimize the risk of 
death, serious injury or damage to 
your vehicle:
●In a rollover crash, an unbelted 
person is significantly more 
likely to die than a person wear-
ing a seat belt. Therefore, the 
driver and all passengers 
should always fasten their seat 
belts.
●Avoid sharp turns or abrupt 
maneuvers, if at all possible.
Failure to operate this vehicle 
correctly may resu lt in loss of 
control or vehicle rollover caus-
ing death or serious injury.
●Loading cargo on the roof lug-
gage carrier (if equipped) will 
make the center of the vehicle 
gravity higher. Avoid high 
speeds, sudden starts, sharp 
turns, sudden braking or abrupt 
maneuvers, otherwise it may 
result in loss of control or vehi-
cle rollover due to failure to 
operate this vehicle correctly.
●Always slow down in gusty 
crosswinds. Because of its pro-
file and higher center of gravity, 
your vehicle is more sensitive to 
side winds than an ordinary 
passenger car. Slowing down 
will allow you to have better 
control.
●Do not drive horizontally across 
steep slopes. Driving straight up 
or straight down is preferred. 
Your vehicle (or any similar 
off-road vehicle) can tip over 
sideways much more easily 
than forward or backward.

Driving
When driving your vehicle 
off-road, please observe the fol-
lowing precautions to ensure 
your driving enjoyment and to 
help prevent the closure of 
areas to off-road vehicles:
Drive your vehicle only in 
areas where off-road vehicles 
are permitted to travel.
 Respect private property. Get 
owner’s permission before 
entering private property.
 Do not enter areas that are 
closed. Honor gates, barriers 
and signs that restrict travel.
 Stay on established roads. 
When conditions are wet, 
driving techniques should be 
changed or travel delayed to 
prevent damage to roads.
■Additional information for 
off-road driving
For owners in U.S. mainland, 
Hawaii and Puerto Rico:
To obtain additional information per-
taining to driving your vehicle 
off-road, consult the following orga-
nizations.
●State and Local Parks and Recre-
ation Departments
●State Motor Vehicle Bureau
●Recreational Vehicle Clubs
●U.S. Forest Service and Bureau of 
Land Management
Off-road drivingWARNING
■Off-road driving precautions
Always observe the following pre-
cautions to minimize the risk of 
death, serious injury or damage to 
your vehicle:
●Drive carefully when off the 
road. Do not take unnecessary 
risks by driving in dangerous 
places.
●Do not grip the steering wheel 
spokes when driving off-road. A 
bad bump could jerk the wheel 
and injure your hands. Keep 
both hands and especially your 
thumbs on the outside of the 
rim.
●Always check your brakes for 
effectiveness immediately after 
driving in sand, mud, water or 
snow.
●After driving through tall grass, 
mud, rock, sand, rivers, etc., 
check that there is no grass, 
bush, paper, rags, stone, sand, 
etc. adhering or trapped on the 
underbody. Clear off any such 
matter from the underbody. If 
the vehicle is used with these 
materials trapped or adhering to 
the underbody, a breakdown or 
fire could occur.
●When driving off-road or in rug-
ged terrain, do not drive at 
excessive speeds, jump, make 
sharp turns, strike objects, etc. 
This may cause loss of control 
or vehicle rollover causing 
death or serious injury. You are 
also risking expensive damage 
to your vehicle’s suspension 
and chassis.

2784-6. Driving tips
NOTICE
■To prevent water damage
Take all necessary safety mea-
sures to ensure that water dam-
age to the engine or other 
components does not occur.
●Water entering the engine air 
intake will cause severe engine 
damage.
●Water entering the continuously 
variable transmission will cause 
deterioration in shift quality, 
locking up of your transmission 
accompanied by vibration, and 
ultimately damage.
●Water can wash the grease 
from wheel bearings, causing 
rusting and premature failure, 
and may also enter the differen-
tials, transmission and transfer 
(AWD models) case, reducing 
the gear oil’s lubricating quali-
ties.
■When you drive through 
water
If driving through water, such as 
when crossing shallow streams, 
first check the depth of the water 
and the bottom of the riverbed for 
firmness. Drive slowly and avoid 
deep water.
■Inspection after off-road driv-
ing
●Sand and mud that has accu-
mulated around brake discs 
may affect braking efficiency 
and may damage brake system 
components.
●Always perform a maintenance 
inspection after each day of 
off-road driving that has taken 
you through rough terrain, sand, 
mud, or water. For scheduled 
maintenance information, refer 
to the “Scheduled Maintenance 
Guide” or “Owner’s Manual 
Supplement”.
