NOTICE
Always use the brake pedal or the
parking brake to hold the vehicle on
an upgrade. Do not attempt to hold
the vehicle using the accelerator ped-
al, as this can cause the transmission
to overheat.
(h) If you cannot shift the selector le-ver out of “P” position
If you cannot shift the selector lever from
the “P” position even though the brake
pedal is depressed, use the shift lock
override button. For instructions, see “If
you cannot shift automatic transmission
selector lever” on page 268 in Section 4.
TS17003a
The shift pattern is conventional as
shown above.
In case of driving your vehicle, the buzzer
will sound when you shift the gear into
“R” (reverse).
Press the clutch pedal down fully while
shifting, and then release it slowly. Do not
rest your foot on the pedal while driving,
because it will cause clutch trouble. Do
not use the clutch to hold the vehicle
when stopped on an uphill grade–use the
parking brake. Upshifting too soon or downshifting too
late will cause lugging, and possibly ping-
ing. Regularly revving the engine to maxi-
mum speed in each gear will cause ex-
cessive engine wear and high fuel
consumption.
Recommended shifting speeds
The transmission is fully synchronized and
upshifting or downshifting is easy.
For the best compromise between fuel
economy and vehicle performance, you
should upshift at the following speeds:
Acceleration
gear km/h (mph)
1 to 2 21 (13)
2 to 3 39 (24)
3 to 4 53 (33)
4 to 5 66 (41)
5 to 6 76 (47)
Cruise
gear km/h (mph)
1 to 2 13 (8)
2 to 3 23 (14)
3 to 4 40 (25)
4 to 5 55 (34)
5 to 6 66 (41)
Manual transmission

1202007 FJ CRUISER from Oct. ’06Prod. (OM35873U)
Maximum allowable speeds
To get on a highway or to pass slower
traffic, maximum acceleration may be nec-
essary. Make sure you observe the follow-
ing maximum allowable speeds in each
gear:gear km/h (mph) “H” or “HL” “LL”
1 48 (30) 18 (11)
2 93 (58) 35 (22)
3 138 (86) 53 (33)
4 172 (107) 66 (41)
5 175 (109) 80 (50)
NOTICE
Do not downshift if you are going
faster than the maximum allowable
speed for the next lower gear.
Good driving practice
If it is difficult to shift into reverse, put
the transmission in neutral, release the
clutch pedal momentarily, and then try
again.
When towing a trailer, in order to main-
tain engine braking efficiency, do not
use sixth gear.
CAUTION
Be careful when downshifting on a
slippery surface. Abrupt shifting
could cause the vehicle to skid or
spin.
NOTICE
 Make sure the vehicle is completely
stopped before shifting into reverse.
 Do not use any gears other than
first gear when starting off and
moving forward. Doing so may dam-
age the clutch.
TS17005
Use the fourwheel drive control lever
to select the following transfer modes.
“H” (high speed position): Lever at “H”
Use this for normal driving on dry hard −
surfaced roads. This position gives greater
economy, quietest ride and least wear.
“HL” (high speed position, center differ-
ential locked): Lever at “HL”
Use this for normal driving on wet, icy or
snow −covered roads.
“N” (neutral position): Lever at “N”
No power is delivered to the wheels. The
vehicle must be stopped.
Fourwheel drive system
(fulltime fourwheel drive
models)—
(a) Fourwheel drive control

1212007 FJ CRUISER from Oct. ’06Prod. (OM35873U)
“LL” (low speed position, center differ-
ential locked): Lever at “LL”
Use this for maximum power and traction.
Use “LL” for climbing or descending steep
hills, off −road driving, and hard pulling in
sand, mud or deep snow.
The center differential lock indicator light
comes on when the “LL” or “HL” mode is
selected.
See “(b) Shifting procedure” for further in-
structions. SHIFTING BETWEEN “H” AND “HL”
To shift from “H” to “HL”,
move the
four −wheel drive control lever.
This can be done at any vehicle speed.
You need not depress the clutch pedal. If
the indicator light does not come on when
you shift the transfer into “HL”, drive
straight ahead while accelerating or decel-
erating.
CAUTION
Never move the fourwheel drive con-
trol lever if wheels are slipping. Stop
the slipping or spinning before shift-
ing.
To shift from “HL” to “H”, simply move
the four −wheel drive control lever.
This can be done at any vehicle speed.
You need not depress the clutch pedal.
If the indicator light does not go off when
you shift the transfer into “H”, drive
straight ahead while accelerating or decel-
erating, or drive in reverse. SHIFTING BETWEEN “HL” AND “LL”
To shift from “HL” to “LL”,
stop the
vehicle or reduce your speed to less than
8 km/h (5 mph). With your foot off the
accelerator pedal, depress the clutch ped-
al and move the four −wheel drive control
lever.
To shift from “LL” to “HL”, depress the
clutch pedal and move the four −wheel
drive control lever.
This can be done at any vehicle speed.
(b) Shifting procedure

1332007 FJ CRUISER from Oct. ’06Prod. (OM35873U)
Part−time four −wheel drive models—
Before using the rear differential lock sys-
tem, first shift the four −wheel drive control
lever into “L4” to see if this is sufficient.
If this has no effect, additionally use the
rear differential lock system.
CAUTION
Do not use the rear differential lock
in the conditions other than above.
Large steering effort and careful cor-
nering control will be required.
TS17016
To lock the rear differential, push the
switch.
Be sure to stop the wheels before locking
the differential.
For easy locking on vehicle with manual
transmission, depress the clutch pedal,
push the lock switch and slowly release
the clutch pedal. On vehicle with automat-
ic transmission, push the lock switch and
gently depress the accelerator pedal.
The indicator light will blink when the
switch is turned on. Wait a few seconds
for the system to complete operation. Af-
ter the differential is locked, the light will
stop blinking and remain on. The following systems do not operate
when the rear differential is locked. It is
normal operation for the “ABS” warning
light, “VSC OFF” indicator light and slip
indicator light to be on at this time.
Anti
−lock brake system
Brake assist system
Vehicle stability control system
Traction control system
CAUTION
Do not lock the differential until the
wheels have stopped spinning.
Otherwise, the vehicle may move in
an unexpected direction when the
differential lock is engaged, result-
ing in an accident. This may also
lead to possible damage to differen-
tial lock component parts.
Do not drive over 8 km/h (5 mph)
when the differential is locked.

TS17014
SETTING THE CRUISING SPEED
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
the transmission must be in “D” or “4”
before you set the cruising speed.
Bring your vehicle to the desired speed,
push the lever down in the “− SET” direc-
tion and release it. This sets the vehicle
at that speed. If the speed is not satisfac-
tory, tap the lever up for a faster speed,
or tap it down for a slower speed. Each
tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h
(1.0 mph). You can now take your foot off
the accelerator pedal. If you need acceleration—for example,
when passing—depress the accelerator
pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed
the set speed. When you release it, the
vehicle will return to the speed set prior
to the acceleration.
CAUTION
For manual transmission:
While driving with the cruise control
on, do not shift to neutral without
depressing the clutch pedal, as this
may cause engine racing or overrev-
ving.
CANCELLING THE CRUISE CONTROL
The cruise control may be temporarily
cancelled by the driver or by the system
itself under certain circumstances. Tempo-
rary cancellation allows the set cruising
speed to remain in memory.
The cruise control can be temporarily can-
celled by doing the following:
Pulling the lever in the “CANCEL” di-
rection and releasing it
Depressing the brake pedal
Depressing the clutch pedalUnder certain circumstances, the cruise
control is temporarily cancelled:
When vehicle speed falls below 40
km/h (25 mph)
When vehicle stability control is acti-
vated
When vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the set speed, the cruise con-
trol is cancelled and the set speed is
erased from memory.
The “CRUISE” indicator light remains on
to indicate that the system is still in op-
eration.
To turn the cruise control off, press the
“ON −OFF” button. Make sure the
“CRUISE” indicator light is off.
If the cruise control automatically cancels
out other than for the above cases, have
your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal-
er at the earliest opportunity.
RESUMING THE CRUISE CONTROL
If the cruise control is temporarily can-
celled, the cruising speed can be resumed
by pushing the lever up in the “+ RES”
direction.
Vehicle speed must be above 40 km/h (25
mph).

1372007 FJ CRUISER from Oct. ’06Prod. (OM35873U)
RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED
Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction
and hold it. Release the lever when the
desired speed is attained. While the lever
is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain
speed.
However, a faster way to reset is to ac-
celerate the vehicle and then push the
lever down in the “− SET” direction.
RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED
Push the lever down in the “− SET” direc-
tion and hold it. Release the lever when
the desired speed is attained. While the
lever is held down, the vehicle speed will
gradually decrease.
However, a faster way to reset is to de-
press the brake pedal and then push the
lever down in the “− SET” direction.
On vehicles with automatic transmission,
even if you downshift from “D” to “4”, with
the cruise control on, engine braking will
not be enabled because the cruise control
is not cancelled. To decrease the vehicle
speed, reset to a slower speed with the
cruise control lever or depress the brake
pedal. If you use the brake pedal, cruise
control is cancelled. CRUISE CONTROL FAILURE WARNING
If the “CRUISE” indicator light flashes
when using the cruise control, press the
“ON
−OFF” button to turn the system off
and then press it again to turn it on.
If any of the following conditions then oc-
curs, there is some trouble in the cruise
control system.
The indicator light does not come on.
The indicator light flashes again.
The indicator light goes out after it
comes on.
If this is the case, contact your Toyota
dealer and have your vehicle inspected.
TS17019
To crank the engine without depressing
the clutch pedal, push the switch with
the ignition on.
The switch stays on as long as the igni-
tion is on. And it will automatically turn off
when the ignition is off. An indicator light
will illuminate to indicate the system is
operating.
This switch cancels the clutch start sys-
tem, which is designed to keep the starter
motor from operating if the clutch pedal is
not depressed all the way down.
The switch allows the vehicle to be driven
out of difficult situations by cranking the
engine with the clutch engaged.

the outlet may cause electrical fail-
ure or short circuits.
TS10002
This power outlet is designed for use
as a power supply for electric ap-
pliances.
The power outlet must only be used after
the engine is started.
If the engine is started with the power
outlet main switch on, the maximum ca-
pacity of the power supply may decrease
to below the standard, or may be cut off
completely, even when the vehicle is sta-
tionary.
While the vehicle is being driven, the
maximum capacity of the power outlet is
always 115 VAC/100W. When the vehicle
is stationary, the maximum capacity of the
power outlet varies depending on the fol-
lowing conditions (a) or (b): (a) The maximum capacity is 115
VAC/400W when the following condi-
tion applies:
Automatic transmission models: The
selector lever is in the “P” or “N” posi-
tion.
Manual transmission models: The shift
lever is in the neutral position and the
clutch pedal is not depressed.
(b) The maximum capacity is 115 VAC/100W when the following condi-
tion applies:
Automatic transmission models: The
selector lever is moved to any posi-
tions other than “P” and “N”.
Manual transmission models: The
clutch pedal is depressed.
A maximum capacity of 400W can only be
restored by turning the power outlet main
switch off and then on again under condi-
tion (a) described above.

cut the power supply if any of the follow-
ing conditions apply:
The engine is started with the power
outlet switch on.
Use of electrical appliances exceeding
the maximum capacity is attempted.
A sound may be heard when the
protection circuit is activated. This is
normal and does not indicate a mal-
function.
Electrical appliances, which consume
power exceeding 100W, have been
used continuously for a long time per-
iod.
The total power usage by all electrical
features (headlights, air conditioning,
etc.) has exceeded the total vehicle
maximum for an extended period of
time.
If the protection circuit is activated and
the power supply is cut, conduct the fol-
lowing procedure:
1. Park the vehicle in a safe area, and then securely apply the parking brake.
2. Check and ensure the following condi- tions: Automatic transmission models: The
selector lever is in the “P” or “N” posi-
tion.
Manual transmission models: The shift
lever is in the neutral position and the
clutch pedal is not depressed.
3. Make sure that the power consumption of the electric appliance is within the
maximum capacity of the power outlet
and the appliance is not broken.
4. Push the power outlet main switch again.
When the cabin temperature is high, open
the windows to cool the temperature
down. Once it reaches the normal temper-
ature, turn the power outlet main switch
