WARNING
■When refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions while refueling the vehicle. Failure to do
so may result in death or serious injury.
● After exiting the vehicle and before opening the fuel cap, touch an
unpainted metal surface to discharge any stat ic electricity. It is important to
discharge static electricity before re fueling because sparks resulting from
static electricity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.
● Type A (P. 262) only: Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn
it slowly to remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be heard before fully removing the cap. In hot
weather, pressurized fuel may spray out the filler neck and cause injury.
● Do not allow anyone that has not discharged static electricity from their
body to come close to an open fuel tank.
● Do not inhale vaporized fuel.
Fuel contains substances that are harmful if inhaled.
● Do not smoke while refueling the vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
● Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is statically
charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible ignition
hazard.
■ When refueling
Observe the following precautions to pr event fuel overflowing from the fuel
tank:
● Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.
● Stop filling the tank after the fuel nozzle automatically clicks off.
● Do not top off the fuel tank.

■Toyota parking assist-sensor can be operated when
● The engine switch is in the “ON” position (vehicles without smart entry &
start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem).
● Front corner sensor:
• The shift lever is in other than P.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 10 km/h (6 mph) or less.
● Rear corner and rear center sensors:
The shift lever is in R.
■ Sensor detection information
● The sensor’s detection areas are limited to the areas around the vehicle’s
bumper.
● Depending on the shape of the object and other factors, the detection dis-
tance may shorten, or detection may be impossible.
● Detection may be impossible if the objects draw too close to the sensor.
● There will be a short delay between object detection and display. Even at
low speeds, there is a possibility that the object will come within the sensor’s
detection areas before the display is shown and the warning beep sounds.
● Thin posts or objects lower than the sensor may not be detected when
approached, even if they have been detected once.
● It might be difficult to hear the buzzer due to the volume of the audio system
or air flow noise of the air conditioning system.
■ Objects which the system may not properly detect
The shape of the object may prevent the sensor from detecting it. Pay partic-
ular attention to the following objects:
● Wires, fences, ropes, etc.
● Cotton, snow and other materials that absorb sound waves
● Sharply-angled objects
● Low objects
● Tall objects with upper sections projecting outwards in the direction of your
vehicle
● Moving objects such as people or animals
People may not be detected if they are wearing certain types of clothing.
■ Situations in which the system may not operate properly
Certain vehicle conditions and the surrounding environment may affect the
ability of the sensor to correctly detect objects. Particular instances where this
may occur are listed below.
● There is dirt, snow or ice on the sensor. (Wiping the sensors will resolve this
problem.)

system and the shift lever is in D, a buzzer will sound and the Stop & Start
system indicator will flash. To stop the buzzer, close the driver’s door.
■ The Stop & Start system protection function
● When the volume of the audio system is excessively high, sound output
from the audio system may suddenly be cut off in order to reduce battery
consumption. To prevent the audio system from being cut off, keep the vol-
ume of audio system at a moderate level. If the audio system has been cut
off, turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position*1 or off*2, wait for 3 sec-
onds or more and then turn it to the “ACC” position*1 or ACCESSORY
mode*2 or the “ON” position*1 or IGNITION ON mode*2 to re-enable the
audio system.
● The audio system may not be activated if the battery terminals are discon-
nected and then reconnected. If this occurs, turn the engine switch to the
“LOCK” position*1 or off*2 and then repeat the following operation twice to
activate the audio system normally.
• Turn the engine switch to the “ON” position*1 or IGNITION ON mode*2
and then to the “LOCK” position*1 or off*2.
*1: Vehicles without smart entry & start system

■ System malfunction
In the following cases, have your vehicle checked by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
● The downhill assist control system indicator does not come on when the
engine switch is turned to the “ON” position (vehicles without smart entry &
start system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart entry & start sys-
tem).
● The downhill assist control system indicator does not come on when the
“DAC” switch is pressed.
● The slip indicator comes on.
WARNING
■When using downhill assist control system
● Do not rely overmuch on the downhill assist control system. This function
does not extend the vehicle’s performance limitations. Always thoroughly
check the road conditions, and drive safely.
● Vehicles with manual transmission: Drive in a low gear. Driving in a high
gear when using downhill assist control system may cause the engine to
stall, which may lose the brake effectiveness and lock the tires, resulting in
an accident.
● Vehicles with manual transmission: On a steep slope, use the engine brak-
ing efficiently. If the vehicle is driven in N or with the clutch pedal
depressed on a steep slope, the load on the brake increases and con-
trolling the vehicle speed may be impossible, resulting in an accident.
■ The system may not operate on the following surfaces, which may lead
to an accident causing death or serious injury
● Slippery surfaces such as wet or muddy roads
● Icy surface
● Unpaved roads
