■When using the rear view 
monitor system 
The rear view monitor system is a 
supplemental device intended to 
assist the driver when backing up. 
When backing up, be sure to visu-
ally check all around the vehicle 
both directly and using the mirrors 
before proceeding. Observe the 
following precautions to avoid an 
accident that could result in death 
or serious injuries.
●Never depend on t he rear view 
monitor system entirely when 
backing up. The image and the 
position of the guide lines dis-
played on the screen may differ 
from the actual state. Use cau-
tion, just as you would when 
backing up any vehicle.
●Be sure to back up slowly, 
depressing the brake pedal to 
control vehicle speed.
●The instructions given are only 
guide lines. When and how 
much to turn the steering wheel 
will vary according to traffic con-
ditions, road surface condi-
tions, vehicle condition, etc. 
when parking. It is necessary to 
be fully aware o f this before 
using the rear view monitor sys-
tem. 
●When parking, be sure to check 
that the par king space will 
accommodate your vehicle 
before maneuveri ng into it.
●Do not use the rear view moni-
tor system in the following 
cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or  in snow
• When using tire chains or emer- gency tires
• When the trunk is not closed  completely
• On roads that are not flat or  straight, such as curves or 
slopes
●In low temperatures, the screen 
may darken or the image may 
become faint. The image could 
distort when the vehicle is mov-
ing, or you may become unable 
to see the image on the screen. 
Be sure to visually check all 
around the vehicle both directly 
and using the mirrors before 
proceeding.
●If the tire sizes are changed, the 
position of the fixed guide lines 
displayed on the screen may 
change.
●The camera uses a special lens. 
The distances between objects 
and pedestrians that appear in 
the image displayed on the 
screen will differ from the actual 
distances. ( P.213)
NOTICE
■How to use the camera
●The rear view monitor system 
may not operate  properly in the 
following cases.
• If the back of the vehicle is hit,  the position and mounting angle 
of the camera may change.
• As the camera has a water  proof construction, do not 
detach, disassemble or modify 
it. This may cause incorrect 
operation.

■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 maintain a safe dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of 
you, especially in  the following sit-
uations:
●When driving on d irt, 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 st ability 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 o perate 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.
■When the TRAC/ABS/VSC is 
activated
The slip indicator  light flashes. 
Always drive carefully. Reckless 
driving may cause an accident. 
Exercise particula r care when the 
indicator light flashes.
■W h e n  t h e  T R A C / V S C  s y s t e m s  
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 p ressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC sys-
tems will not functi on correctly if 
different tires are installed on the 
vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for fur-
ther information when replacing 
tires or wheels.

ner appropriate to the pre-
vailing weather conditions.
Pre-winter preparations
WA R N I N G
■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.
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.

Driving
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 
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 sh ifted 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.
Use the correct tire chain size 
when mounting the tire chains.
Chain size is regulated for each 
tire size.

low tire inflation pressure before 
serious problems arise.
If the tire pressure drops below 
a predetermined level, the driver 
is warned by a warning light. 
(P.454)
■Routine tire inflation pressure 
checks
The tire pressure warning system 
does not replace routine tire inflation 
pressure checks. Make sure to 
check tire inflation pressure as part 
of your routine of daily vehicle 
checks.
■Situations in which the tire 
pressure warning system may 
not operate properly
●In the following  cases, the tire 
pressure warning system may not 
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are  used.
• A tire has been replaced with a  tire that is not an OE (Original 
Equipment) tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a  tire that is not of the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. are equipped.
• An auxiliary-supported run-flat tire 
is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the  radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on  the vehicle, particularly around the 
wheels or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is  extremely higher  than the speci-
fied level.
• If tires not equipped with tire pres- sure warning valves and transmit-
ters are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure  warning valves and transmitters is 
not registered in the tire pressure 
warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in 
the following situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power  plant, gas station, radio station, 
large display, airpo
rt or other facil-
ity that generates strong radio 
waves or electrical noise.
• When carrying a portable radio,  cellular phone, cordless phone or 
other wireless communication 
device.
●When the vehicle is parked, the 
time taken for the warning to start 
or go off could be extended.
●When tire inflation pressure 
declines rapidly for example when 
a tire has burst, the warning may 
not function.
■Warning performance of the tire 
pressure warning system
The warning of the tire pressure 
warning system w ill change in 
accordance with driving conditions. 
For this reason, the system may 
give a warning even if the tire pres-
sure does not reach a low enough 
level, or if the p ressure is higher 
than the pressure that was adjusted 
to when the system w as initialized.

pact spare tire on another vehi-
cle.
●Do not use more than one com-
pact spare tires simultaneously.
●Replace the compact spare tire 
with a standard tire as soon as 
possible.
●Avoid sudden acceleration, 
abrupt steering, sudden brak-
ing and shifting operations that 
cause sudden engine braking.
■When the compact spare tire 
is attached
The vehicle speed may not be 
correctly detected, and the follow-
ing systems may not operate cor-
rectly:
• ABS & Brake assist
• VSC
•TRAC
