Operation of each component
HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
■ Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses weak radio waves. In the following situa-
tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control
and engine immobilizer system from operating properly.
(Ways of coping: P. 668)
● When the electronic key battery is depleted
● Near a TV tower, electric power plant, gas station, radio station, large dis-
play, airport or other facility that generates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
● When carrying a portable radio, cellular phone, cordless phone or other
wireless communication device
● When the electronic key is in contact with, or is covered by the following
metallic objects
• Cards to which aluminum foil is attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum foil inside
• Metallic wallets or bags
• Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal
• Media such as CDs and DVDs
● When multiple electronic keys are in the vicinity
● When other wireless keys (that emit radio waves) are being used nearby
● When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that
emit radio waves
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves
• Personal computers or pers onal digital assistants (PDAs)
• Digital audio players
• Portable game systems
● If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the
rear window
● When the electronic key is placed near a battery charger or electronic devices

2664-1. Before driving
HILUX_OM_OM0K321E_(EE)
NOTICE
■When encountering flooded roads
Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain etc. Doing so may
cause the following serious damage to the vehicle:
● Engine stalling
● Short in electrical components
● Engine damage caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, or
on a sandy road, be sure to have any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer check the following:
● Brake function
● Changes in quantity and quality of oil and fluid used for the engine, trans-
mission, transfer (4WD models), clutch, differential, etc.
● Lubricant condition for the propeller shaft, bearings and suspension joints
(where possible), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.
■ Off-road driving (vehicles with type A wheel ornaments [P. 656])
When driving on muddy roads, rocky terrain or sand, or crossing rivers,
remove the wheel ornaments. Driving with the wheel ornaments installed
may cause the wheel ornaments to be damaged or even fall off.
After off-road driving with the wheel ornaments removed, remove dirt or for-
eign objects from the wheel before reinstalling the wheel ornaments.

■ Temporary cancellation of functions
When operation conditions are no longer met, a function may be temporarily
canceled. However, when the operation conditions are met again, operation
of the function is automatically restored. ( P. 358)
■ Yaw assist function
● Depending on the vehicle speed, lane departure situation, road conditions,
etc., the driver may not feel the func tion is operating or the function may not
operate at all.
● The yaw assist of the function is overridden by the driver’s steering wheel
operation.
● Do not attempt to test the operation of the yaw assist function.
● A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the brake pedal
is depressed, when the yaw assist function is operating. This sound does
not indicate that a malfunction is occurred in the LDA system.
■ Lane departure alert function
● The warning buzzer may be difficult to hear due to external noise, audio
playback, etc.
● If the edge of the course* is not clear or straight, the lane departure alert
function may not operate.
● Do not attempt to test the operation of the lane departure alert function.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■ Vehicle sway warning function
Depending on the vehicle and road conditions, the warning may not operate.
When the system determines that the
vehicle is swaying while the vehicle sway
warning function is operating, a buzzer
sounds and a warning message urging
the driver to rest and the symbol shown in
the illustration are simultaneously dis-
played on the multi-information display.

■ Warning message
If the following warning message is displayed on the multi-information dis-
play, and the LDA indicator illuminates in yellow, follow the appropriate trou-
bleshooting procedure. Also, if a different warning message is displayed,
follow the instructions displayed on the screen.
● “LDA Malfunction Visit Your Dealer”
The system may not be operating properly. Have the vehicle inspected by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
● “Lane Departure Alert Unavailable”
• The system is temporarily canceled due to a malfunction in a sensor
other than the front camera. Turn the LDA system off, wait for a little
while, and then turn the LDA system back on.
• The system is temporarily unavaila ble as the vehicle repeatedly departs
from its lane or course* in a short period of time. Turn the engine switch
to the “LOCK” position (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or off
(vehicles with smart entry & start system), and then turn it to the “ON”
position (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with smart entry & start system) again.
● “LDA Unavailable at Current Speed”
The function cannot be used as the vehicle speed exceeds the LDA opera-
tion range. Drive slower.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the side of the road, such as grass, soil, or
a curb

Winter driving tips
●Use fluids that are appropriate to the prevailing outside tempera-
tures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Washer fluid
● Have a service technician inspect the condition of the battery.
● Have the vehicle fitted with four snow tires or purchase a set of tire
chains for the rear tires.
Ensure that all tires are the same size and brand, and that chains match
the size of the tires.
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 windshield.
● Check for and remove any excess ice or snow that may have accu-
mulated 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.
Carry out the necessary preparations and inspections before
driving the vehicle in winter. Always drive the vehicle in a man-
ner appropriate to the prevailing weather conditions.
