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 temporarily maintained to prevent the vehicle from rolling back-
wards before the engine is restarted and drive force is generated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
O This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep inclines.
O Sound may be generated from the brake system, but this does not
indicate a malfunction.
O Brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur, but
this does not indicate a malfunction.
Q Points for use
O If the engine switch is pressed when the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system, the engine will not be able to be restarted by the automatic
engine start function. In this case, restart the engine using the normal
engine starting procedure. ( P. 220, 223)
O When the engine is being restarted by the Stop & Start system, the power
outlets may be temporarily unusable, but this does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
O Installation and removal of electrical components and wireless devices may
affect the Stop & Start system. Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for details.
O When stopping the vehicle for a longer period of time, turn the engine switch
to the “LOCK” position*1 or off*2 to stop the engine completely.
O When the engine is restarted by the Stop & Start system, the steering wheel
may temporarily feel heavy.
O 4WD models only: While driving in L4 mode, it is recommended that the
Stop & Start system be canceled because the system may not operate prop-
erly.

• The shift lever is shifted from D or P. (vehicles with automatic transmis-
sion)

& Start system when the shift lever is in P.) (vehicles with automatic trans-
mission)
• The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.
• The driver’s door is opened.
• The driving mode is changed from normal or Eco drive mode to another
mode. (if equipped)
• The rear differential is locked. (if equipped)
• The Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed.
• The steering wheel is operated.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed. (vehicles with automatic transmis-
sion)
• The vehicle starts to roll on an incline.
O 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 conditioning system is operated ( , etc.).
• If the battery charge becomes low.
Q When the hood is opened
O If the hood is opened while the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start sys-
tem, the engine will stall and will not be able to be restarted by the automatic
engine start function. In this case, restart the engine using the normal
engine starting procedure. ( P. 220, 223)
O If the hood is closed after the engine is started with the hood open, the Stop

WARNING
QTrailer Sway Control precaution
The Trailer Sway Control system is not able to reduce trailer sway in all situ-
ations. Depending on many factors such as the conditions of the vehicle,
trailer, road surface, and driving envi ronment, the Trailer Sway Control sys-
tem may not be effective. Refer to your trailer owner’s manual for informa-
tion on how to tow your trailer properly.
Q If trailer sway occurs (vehicles with Trailer Sway Control)
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may cause death or serious injury.
O Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead.
Do not try to control trailer sway by turning the steering wheel.
O Begin releasing the accelerator pedal immediately but very gradually to
reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply vehicle brakes.
If you make no extreme correction with the steering or brakes, your vehicle
and trailer should stabilize. ( P. 215)

QOperating tips (vehicles with automatic transmission)
The system will operate when the shift lever is in a position other than P, how-
ever to make effective use of the system it is recommended to select a lower
shift range.
Q The system will not operate when
O The transfer mode is in H2.
O The rear differential is locked. (if equipped)
Q If the downhill assist control system indicator flashes
O In the following situations, the indicator flashes and the system will not oper-
ate:
• The transfer mode is not in L4 or H4.
• The rear differential is locked. (if equipped)
• The shift lever is in P. (vehicles with automatic transmission)
• The accelerator or brake pedal is depressed.
• The vehicle speed exceeds approximately 30 km/h (18 mph).
• The brake system overheats.
O In the following situations, the indicator flashes to alert the driver, but the
system will operate:
• The shift lever is in N. (vehicles with automatic transmission)
• The clutch pedal is depressed. (vehicles with manual transmission)
• The “DAC” switch is turned off while the system is operating.
The system will gradually ceases operat ion. The indicator will flash during
operation, and then go off when the system is fully off.
Q When the downhill assist control system is operated continuously
This may cause the brake actuator to overheat. In this case, the downhill
assist control system will stop operating, a buzzer will sound and the downhill
assist control system indicator will start flashing, and “TRC turned off” will be
shown on the multi-information display. Refrain from using the system until
the downhill assist control system indicator stays on and the message goes
off. (The vehicle can be driven normally during this time.)
Q Sounds and vibrations caused by the downhill assist control system
O A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the engine is
started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indicate
that a malfunction has occurred in downhill assist control system.
O Either of the following conditions may occur when the downhill assist control
system is operating. None of these are indicators that a malfunction has
occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.
