When driving
L/C200_EE (OM60G38E)
CAUTION
When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
Stopping the engine in an emergency
If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehicle,
press and hold the “ENGINE START STOP” switch for more than 3 seconds,
or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. (P. 640)
However, do not touch the “ENGINE START STOP” switch while driving
except in an emergency. Turning the engine off while driving will not cause
loss of steering or braking control, but the power assist to these systems will
be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull
over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCESSORY or IGNI-
TION ON mode for long periods without the engine running.
When starting the engine
Do not race a cold engine.
If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehi-
cle checked by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional immediately.
Symptoms indicating a malfunction with the “ENGINE START STOP”
switch
If the “ENGINE START STOP” seems to be operating somewhat differently
than usual, such as the switch sticking slightly, there may be a malfunction.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional.

Darker
Brighter
The meters and display illuminate when
The “ENGINE START STOP” switch is in IGNITION ON mode.
NOTICE
To prevent damage to the engine and its components
Do not let the indicator needle of the tachometer enter the red zone, which
indicates the maximum engine speed.
The engine may be overheating if the engine coolant temperature gauge is
in the red zone (“H”). In this case, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe
place, and check the engine after it has cooled completely. (
P. 634)
While driving
When the voltmeter indicates more than 19 V or less than 9 V, the battery
may be malfunctioning. Have your vehicle checked at any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional.
When the engine oil pressure gauge does not work properly, immediately
stop the engine and contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Turn-by-turn navigation (vehicles with navigation system)
When disconnecting and reconnecting battery terminals
The following information data will be reset:
Average fuel consumption after refueling
Average fuel consumption
Average vehicle speed
CAUTION
The information display at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the information dis-
play. At extremely low temperatures, the information display monitor may
respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.
For example, there is a lag between the driver’s shifting and the new gear
number appearing on the display. This lag could cause the driver to down-
shift again, causing rapid and excessive engine braking and possibly an
accident resulting in death or serious injury.
The turn-by-turn navigation appears only
while route guidance of the navigation
system is being performed. When a turn
approaches, the distance to the turn and
the turn direction are displayed.
