securely fixed in the correct 
place with all the provided 
retaining hooks (clips). Be espe-
cially careful to perform this 
check after cleaning the floor.
●With the engine stopped and 
the shift lever in  P, fully depress 
each pedal to the floor to make

For safety and security
Exhaust gas precau-
tions
Harmful substance to the 
human body is included in 
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful 
carbon monoxide (CO), which is 
colorless and odorless. Observe 
the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause 
exhaust gases enter the vehicle 
and may lead to an accident 
caused by light-headedness, or 
may lead to death or a serious 
health hazard.
■Important points while driving
●Keep the back door closed.
●If you smell exhaust gases in 
the vehicle even when the back 
door is closed, open the win-
dows and have the vehicle 
inspected at your Toyota dealer 
as soon as possible.
■When parking
●If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-
lated area or a closed area, 
such as a garage, stop the 
engine.
●Do not leave the vehicle with 
the engine on for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be 
avoided, park the vehicle in an 
open space and  ensure that 
exhaust fumes do not enter the 
vehicle interior.
●Do not leave the engine running 
in an area with snow build-up, 
or where it is snowing. If snow-
banks build up around the vehi-
cle while the engine is running, 
exhaust gases may collect and 
enter the vehicle.
■Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be 
checked periodically. If there is a 
hole or crack caused by corro-
sion, damage to a joint or abnor-
mal exhaust noise, be sure to 
have the vehicle inspected and 
repaired by your Toyota dealer.

Before driving
■Note for the entry function
●Even when the electronic key is 
within the effective range (detec-
tion areas), the system may not 
operate properly in the following 
cases:
• The electronic key is too close to  the window or outside door han-
dle, near the ground, or in a high 
place when the doors are locked 
or unlocked.
• The electronic key is on the instru- ment panel, luggage cover or 
floor, or in the door pockets or 
glove box when the engine is 
started or engine switch modes 
are changed.
●Do not leave the electronic key on 
top of the instrument panel or near 
the door pockets when exiting the 
vehicle. Depending on the radio 
wave reception conditions, it may 
be detected by the antenna out-
side the cabin and the door will 
become lockable from the outside, 
possibly trapping the electronic 
key inside the vehicle.
●As long as the electronic key is 
within the effective range, the 
doors may be locked or unlocked 
by anyone. However, only the 
doors detecting the electronic key 
can be used to unl ock the vehicle.
●Even if the electronic key is not 
inside the vehicle, it may be possi-
ble to start the engine if the elec-
tronic key is near the window.
●The doors may unlock or lock if a 
large amount of water splashes on 
the door handle, such as in the 
rain or in a car wash when the 
electronic key is w ithin the effec-
tive range. (The  doors will auto-
matically be locked after 
approximately 60 seconds if the 
doors are not opened and closed.)
●If the wireless remote control is 
used to lock the doors when the 
electronic key is  near the vehicle, 
there is a possib ility that the door 
may not be unlocke d by the entry 
function. (Use the wireless remote  control to unlock the doors.)
●Touching the door lock or unlock 
sensor while wearing gloves may 
prevent lock or unlock operation.
●When the lock operation is per-
formed using the lock sensor, rec-
ognition signals will be shown up 
to two consecutive times. After 
this, no recognition signals will be 
given.
●If the door handle becomes wet 
while the electronic key is within 
the effective range, the door may 
lock and unlock repeatedly. In that 
case, follow the 
following correc-
tion procedures to wash the vehi-
cle:
• Place the electronic key in a loca-
tion 6 ft. (2 m) or more away from 
the vehicle. (Take care to ensure 
that the key is not stolen.)
• Set the electronic key to bat- tery-saving mode to disable the 
smart key system. ( P.104)
●If the electronic key is inside the 
vehicle and a door handle 
becomes wet during a car wash, a 
message may be shown on the 
multi-information display and a 
buzzer will sound outside the vehi-
cle. To turn off the alarm, lock all 
the doors.
●The lock sensor may not work 
properly if it comes into contact 
with ice, snow, m ud, 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.

1244-1. Before driving
WARNING
●During normal driving, do not 
turn off the engine. Turning the 
engine off while driving will not 
cause loss of steering or brak-
ing control, but the power assist 
to these systems will be lost. 
This will make it more difficult to 
steer and brake, so you should 
pull over and stop the vehicle as 
soon as it is safe to do so.
However, in the event of an 
emergency, such as if it 
becomes impossible to stop the 
vehicle in the normal way: 
P. 3 1 2
●Use engine braking (downshift) 
to maintain a safe speed when 
driving down a steep hill.
Using the brakes continuously 
may cause the brakes to over-
heat and lose effectiveness. 
(
P.137)
●Do not adjust the positions of 
the steering wheel, the seat, or 
the inside or outside rear view 
mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of 
vehicle control.
●Always check that all passen-
gers’ arms, heads or other parts 
of their body are not outside the 
vehicle.
●Do not drive in excess of the 
speed limit. Even if the legal 
speed limit permits it, do not 
drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) 
unless your vehicle has 
high-speed capabilit y tires. Driv-
ing over 85 mp h (140 km/h) 
may result in tire failure, loss of 
control and possible injury. Be 
sure to consult a tire dealer to 
determine whether the tires on 
your vehicle are high-speed 
capability tires or not before 
driving at such speeds.
■When driving on slippery 
road surfaces
●Sudden braking, acceleration 
and steering may cause tire 
slippage and reduce your ability 
to control the vehicle.
●Sudden acceleration, engine 
braking due to shifting, or 
changes in engine speed could 
cause the vehicle to skid.
●After driving through a puddle, 
lightly depress the brake pedal 
to make sure that the brakes 
are functioning properly. Wet 
brake pads may prevent the 
brakes from functioning prop-
erly. If the brakes on only one 
side are wet and not functioning 
properly, steering control may 
be affected.
■When shifting the shift lever
●Do not let the vehicle roll back-
ward while a fo rward driving 
position is selected, or roll for-
ward while the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine 
to stall or lead to poor brake and 
steering performance, resulting 
in an accident or damage to the 
vehicle.
●Do not shift the sh ift lever to P 
while the vehicle is moving.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss 
of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the sh ift lever to R 
while the vehicle is moving for-
ward.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss 
of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to a 
driving position while the vehicle 
is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the trans-
mission and may result in a loss 
of vehicle control.
