When driving
n“S” mode
When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets
the shift range to “6”.
nDownshifting restrictions warning buzzer (in the “S” mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever is operated. (The warning buzzer will
sound twice.)
nWhen driving with the cruise control system
The engine brake will not operate in
the “S” mode, even when downshifting
to “5” or “4”. (P. 178)
nSecond start mode automatic deactivation
Second start mode is automatically deactivated if the engine is turned off
after driving in second start mode.
n
If the shift lever cannot be shifted from “P”
P. 478
nIf the “S” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to “S”
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the vehicle will operate as if the shift lever is in “D”.)
nAISHIFT
The AI−SHIFT automatically shifts the gear to the optimal position according
to the driver performance and driving conditions.
The AI−SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the “D” posi−
tion. (Shifting the shift lever to the “S” position cancels the function.)

194 2−4. Using other driving systems
nThe fourwheel drive control switch can be operated when
lThe “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
lThe shift lever is in the “N” position.
lThe vehicle is stopped completely.
nAdvice for driving on slippery roads in “L4” (low speed position)
lIf you shift the four−wheel drive control switch to “L4” and the shift lever to
the “2” range of “S” while driving in steep off−road areas, the output of the
brake can be controlled effectively by the active traction control system,
which assists the driver to control the driving power of 4 wheels.
lUse the “1” range of “S” of the shift lever for maximum power and traction
when your wheels get stuck or when driving down a steep incline. In the
following cases, the output of the brake can be controlled by the active
traction control system if the engine speed is under 3,000 rpm (normally
under 3,000 rpm when the wheels get unstuck).
The four−wheel drive control switch is in the “L4” position and the shift
lever is in the “1” range of “S” or the shift lever is in “D” or “S” with the
transmission downshifted to first gear.
The four−wheel drive control switch is in the “L4” position and the shift
lever is in the “R” position.
nThe center differential lock/unlock button can be operated when
lThe “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
lThe vehicle speed is less than 60 mph (100 km/h).
nLocking/unlocking the center differential
lWhen the center differential is locked, VSC (vehicle stability control) is
automatically turned off. (The center di
fferential lock and “VSC OFF” indi−
cator lights come on.)
lIf the operation is not completed, the center differential lock indicator
blinks. If the indicator light does not turn off when unlocking the center
differential, drive straight ahead while accelerating or decelerating, or
drive in reverse.
lIf the center differential lock/unlock is not completed within 5 seconds
while the cruise control system is on, cancel the cruise control system.

lThe four−wheel drive control switch is in “L4”.
lThe parking brake is released.
lThe driver ’s door is closed.

When driving
nAutomatic system cancelation
In the following situations, the system is canceled automatically, and the
crawl control indicator will turn off:
lWhen the shift lever is moved to “P”.
lWhen the four−wheel drive control switch is in “H4”.
In the following situations, it is possible to descend a slope at a fixed low
speed, however when traveling the system is canceled automatically, and
the crawl indicator will turn off.
lWhen the shift lever is moved to “N”.
lWhen the vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
lWhen the brake pedal is depressed firmly.
lWhen the parking brake is engaged.
lIf the driver ’s door is opened.
lWhen the driving mode is set to second start mode.

The system will cease operation and a buzzer will sound to alert the driver.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place. (There is no problem with continuing normal
driving.)
nIf the automatic transmission system overheats
The system will cease operation, a buzzer will sound and a warning mes−
sage will be displayed to alert the driver. Stop the vehicle in a safe place until
the warning message turns off.

Rear window and outside rear view mir ror defoggers
nThe rear window and outside rear vi ew mirror defoggers can be oper
ated when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
CAUTION
nWhen the outside rear view mirror defoggers are on
Do not touch the rear view mirror surfaces, as they can become very hot and
burn you.
These features are used to defog the rear window, and to remove
raindrops, dew and frost from the outside rear view mirrors.
With navigation system
On/off
The defoggers will automati−
cally turn off after 15 to 225
minutes. The operation time
changes according to the
ambient temperature and vehi−
cle speed. Pressing the switch
again also turns the defoggers
off.

nLens cleaners
Do not use lens cleaners. Doing so may damage the CD player.
nMP3 and WMA files
MP3 (MPEG Audio LAYER3) is a standard audio compression format.
Files can be compressed to approximately 1/10 of their original size by using
MP3 compression.
WMA (Windows Media
TM Audio) is a Microsoft audio compression format.
This format compresses audio data to a size smaller than that of the MP3
format.
There is a limit to the MP3 and WMA file standards and to the media/formats
recorded by them that can be used.

278 3−2. Using the audio system
lCompatible media
Media that can be used for MP3 and WMA playback are CD−Rs and CD−
RWs.
Playback in some instances may not be possible, depending on the status
of the CD−R or CD−RW. Playback may not be possible or the audio may
jump if the disc is scratched or marked with fingerprints.
lCompatible disc formats
The following disc formats can be used.
Disc formats: CD−ROM Mode 1 and Mode 2
CD−ROM XA Mode 2, Form 1 and Form 2
File formats: ISO9660 Level 1, Level 2, (Romeo, Joliet)
MP3 and WMA files written in any format other than those listed above
may not play correctly, and their file names and folder names may not
be displayed correctly.
Items related to standards and limitations are as follows.
Maximum directory hierarchy: 8 levels
Maximum length of folder names/file names: 32 characters
Maximum number of folders: 192 (including the root)
Maximum number of files per disc: 255
lFile names
The only files that can be recogniz
ed as MP3/WMA and played are those
with the extension .mp3 or .wma.
lMulti−sessions
As the audio system is compatible with multi−sessions, it is possible to play
discs that contain MP3 and WMA files. However, only the first session can
be played.
lID3 and WMA tags
ID3 tags can be added to MP3 files, making it possible to record the track
title and artist name, etc.
The system is compatible with ID3 Ver. 1.0, 1.1, and Ver. 2.2, 2.3 ID3 tags.
(The number of characters is based on ID3 Ver. 1.0 and 1.1.)
WMA tags can be added to WMA files, making it possible to record the
track title and artist name in the same way as with ID3 tags.
