■When the brake hold sys-
tem is operating
 When the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system, if
the brake pedal is released
the engine will remain
stopped.
 If the accelerator pedal is
depressed while the engine is
stopped by the Stop & Start
system, the engine will
restart.
 While the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system, if
the engine is restarted, the
brake hold system will con-
tinue to apply the brakes,
unless the operation condi-
tions of the brake hold system
are no longer met. ( P.175)
■When the dynamic radar
cruise control with
full-speed range is operat-
ing
 When the vehicle is stopped
by the dynamic radar cruise
control with full-speed range,
the engine will stop automati-
cally even though the brake
pedal is not depressed.
 When the preceding vehicle
starts off, the engine will
restart automatically.
 If the engine is restarted by
the Stop & Start system while
the vehicle is stopped by the
dynamic radar cruise control
with full-speed range, the vehicle will remain stopped.
Press the Stop & Start cancel
switch to disable the Stop &
Start system.
The Stop & Start cancel indicator
will illuminate.
Pressing the s witch again will
enable the Stop & Start system and
the Stop & Start cancel indicator will
turn off.
■Automatic enabling of the Stop
& Start system
If the Stop & Start system is dis-
abled using the Stop & Start cancel
switch, it will be a utomatically
re-enabled once the engine switch
is turned off and then the engine is
started.
When the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system when
the vehicle is on an incline,
when the brake pedal is
released, brake force is tempo-
rarily maintained to prevent the
vehicle from rolling backwards

and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated,
the maintained brake force is
automatically canceled.
This function operates on flat
surfaces as well as steep
inclines.
 Sound may be generated
from the brake system, but
this does not indicate a mal-
function.
 Brake pedal response may
change and vibration may
occur, but this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
■Points for use
●If the engine switch is pressed
when the engine is stopped by the
Stop & Start system, the engine
will not be able to b e restarted by
the automatic engine start func-
tion. In this case, restart the
engine using the normal engine
starting procedure. ( P.162, 163)
●When the engine is being
restarted by the Stop & Start sys-
tem, the power outlets may be
temporarily unusable, but this
does not indicate a malfunction.
●Installation and re moval of electri-
cal components and wireless
devices may affect the Stop &
Start system. Contact your Toyota
dealer for details.
●When stopping the vehicle for a
longer period of time, turn the
engine switch off to stop the
engine completely.
■Operating conditions
●The Stop & Start system is opera-
tional when all of the following
conditions are met:
• The vehicle has been driven a cer- tain amount of time. • The brake pedal is being
depressed firmly. (Except when
the vehicle is stopped by the
dynamic radar cruis e control with
full-speed range when in vehi-
cle-to-vehicle d istance control
mode)
• The D or P shift position is selected.
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• The windshield de fogger is off.
(vehicles without a manual air
conditioning system)
• The accelerator pedal is not being
depressed.
• The engine is adequately warmed up.
• The hood is closed. ( P.240)
●In the following situations the
engine may not be stopped by the
Stop & Start system. This is not a
malfunction of the Stop & Start
system.
• When the air conditioning system is being used.
• When the battery is undergoing a
periodic recharge.
• When the battery is not sufficiently
charged, such as if the vehicle
has been parked for a long time
and the battery charge has
decreased, the electric load is
large, the battery fluid tempera-
ture is excessively low or the bat-
tery has deteriorated.
*
• When the brake booster vacuum is low.
• When the elapsed time since the engine was restarted is short.
• When the vehicle is stopped fre- quently, such as when in a traffic
jam.
• When the engine coolant tem- perature or transm ission fluid tem-
perature is extremely low or high.
• When the vehicle is stopped on a
steep incline.
• When the vehicle is being driven
in a high altitude area.
• When the battery fluid tempera- ture is extremely low or high.
• For a while after the battery termi-

2404-5. Using the driving support systems
nals have been disconnected and
reconnected.
*: The state that the engine is not stopped may continue.
●When the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system, the
engine will be res tarted automati-
cally if any of the following condi-
tions are met: (To enable the
engine to be stopped by the Stop
& Start system again, drive the
vehicle.)
• The air conditioning system is being used. (vehicles without a
manual air conditioning system)
• The windshield defogger is turned on. (vehicles without a manual air
conditioning system)
• The shift lever is shifted from D or P.
• The shift lever is shifted from P.
(When the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system when the
shift lever is in P.)
• The driver’s seat belt is unfas- tened.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The Stop & Start cancel switch is
pressed.
• The accelerator pedal is
depressed.
• The vehicle starts to roll on an incline.
●When the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system, the
engine may restart automatically
in the following situations: (To
enable the engine to be stopped
by the Stop & Start system again,
drive the vehicle.)
• When the brake pedal is pumped
or strongly depressed.
• When the air conditioning system is being used.
• When a switch of the air condition- ing system is operated (windshield
defogger switch, etc.).
• If the battery charge becomes low.
■When the hood is opened
●If the hood is opened while the
engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the engine will stall
and will not be able to be restarted
by the automatic engine start
function. In this c
ase, restart the
engine using the normal engine
starting procedure. ( P.162, 163)
●If the hood is closed after the
engine is started with the hood
open, the Stop & Start system will
not operate. Close the hood, turn
the engine switch off, wait 30 sec-
onds or more, and then start the
engine.
■Air conditioning system opera-
tion while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system
Vehicles with an automatic air con-
ditioning system: When the air con-
ditioning is in automatic mode and
the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system, the fan may operate at
a low speed in order to prevent the
temperature in the cabin from
increasing or decreasing or may be
stopped.
To prioritize air conditioning system
performance when the vehicle is
stopped, disable the Stop & Start
system by pressing the Stop & Start
cancel switch.

WARNING
■When the Stop & Start system
is operating
Make sure to disable the Stop &
Start system while the vehicle is in
a poorly ventilated area. If not dis-
abled, the engine may be auto-
matically restarted unexpectedly,
causing exhaust gases to collect
and enter the vehicle, possibly
resulting in dea th or a serious
health hazard.
●Do not leave the vehicle while
the engine is stopped by the
Stop & Start system (while the
Stop & Start indicator is on). An
accident may occur due to the
automatic engine start function.
●Depress the brake pedal and
apply the parking brake when

■Objects that can be detected while driving
The Blind Spot Monitor uses rear side radar sensors to detect the fol-
lowing vehicles traveling in adjacent lanes and advises the driver of
the presence of such vehicles via the indicators on the outside rear
view mirrors.
WARNING
●Do not subject a sensor or its
surrounding area on the rear
bumper to a strong impact.
If a sensor is moved even
slightly off position, the system
may malfunction and vehicles
may not be detected correctly.
In the following si tuations, have
your vehicle inspected by your
Toyota dealer.
• A sensor or its surrounding area is subject to a strong impact.
• If the surrounding area of a sen- sor is scratched or dented, or
part of them has become dis-
connected.
●Do not disassemble the sensor.
●Do not modify the sensor or sur-
rounding area on the rear
bumper.
●If a sensor or th e rear bumper
needs to be removed/installed
or replaced, contact your Toyota
dealer.
●Do not paint the rear bumper
any color other t han an official
Toyota color.
