Owners Manual_USA_M62084_en
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, 
because visibility will be reduced, 
the windows may become fogged-
up, and the  road will be slippery.
●Drive carefully whe n it starts to 
rain, because the road surface will 
be especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when 
driving on an expressway in the 
rain, because there may be a 
layer of water between the tires 
and the road surface, preventing 
the steering and brakes from 
operating properly.
■ECO Accelerator Guidance 
(  P.102)
Eco-friendly driving may be 
achieved more easily by staying 
within the zone of Eco acceleration. 
Also, by staying w ithin the zone of 
Eco acceleration, i t will be easier to 
obtain a good Eco score.
●When starting off:
Gradually depress the accelerator 
pedal to stay withi n the zone of Eco 
acceleration and accelerate to the 
desired speed. By refraining from 
excessive acceleration, a good eco 
start score will be obtained.
●When driving:
After accelerating to the desired 
speed, release the accelerator 
pedal and drive at a stable speed 
while staying within the zone of Eco 
acceleration. By staying within the 
zone of Eco acceleration, a good 
eco cruise score  will be obtained.
●When stopping:
By starting to release the accelera-
tor pedal early before decelerating, 
a good eco stop score will be 
obtained.
■Restraining the fuel cell system 
output (Brake Override System)
●When the accelera tor and brake 
pedals are depressed at the same 
time, the fuel cell system output 
may be restrained.
●A warning message is displayed 
on the multi-information display 
and head-up display (if equipped) 
while the system is operating. 
(  P.446)
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, 
observing the following precautions 
is recommended:
●For the first 186  miles (300 km):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 621  miles (1000 km):
• Do not drive at extremely high  speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low  gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed  for extended periods.
■Drum-in-disc type parking 
brake system
Your vehicle has a drum-in-disc type 
parking brake system. This type of 
brake system needs bedding-down 
of the brake shoes periodically or 
whenever the par king brake shoes 
and/or drum are replaced. Have 
your Toyota dealer perform the bed-
ding down operation.
■Operating your v ehicle in a for-
eign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle 
registration laws and confirm the 
availability of the correct fuel.

WARNING
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the 
brake pedal while stopped with 
the “READY” indicator is illumi-
nated. This prevents the vehicle 
from creeping.
■When driving  the vehicle
●Do not drive if y ou are unfamil-
iar with the location of the brake 
and accelerator pedals to avoid 
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the  accelerator pedal instead of the 
brake pedal will result in sudden 
acceleration that may lead to an 
accident.
• When backing up, you may twist  your body around, leading to dif-
ficulty in operating the pedals. 
Make sure to operate the pedals 
properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct  driving posture even when mov-
ing the vehicle only slightly. This 
allows you to depress the brake 
and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using  your right foot. Depressing the 
brake pedal using your left foot 
may delay respon se in an emer-
gency, resulting in an accident.
●The driver should pay extra 
attention to pedes trians as this 
vehicle is powered only by an 
electric motor (traction motor). 
As there is no engine noise, the 
pedestrians may misjudge the 
vehicle’s movement. Even with 
the acoustic vehicle alerting 
system activate, d rive with care 
as pedestrians in the vicinity 
may still not notice the vehicle if 
the surrounding area is noisy.
●During normal driving, do not 
turn off the fuel cell system. 
Turning the fuel cell system off 
while driving will not cause loss 
of steering or braking control, 
however, power  assist to the 
steering will be lost. This will 
make it more difficult to steer 
smoothly, so you should pull 
over and stop the vehicle as 
soon as it is safe to do so.
In the event of a n emergency, 
such as if it becomes impossible 
to stop the vehicle in the normal 
way:  P. 4 3 2
●Using the brakes continuously 
may cause the brakes to over-
heat and lose effectiveness 
when driving down a steep hill.
●Do not adjust the positions of 
the steering wheel, the seat, or 
the inside or outside rear view 
mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of 
vehicle control.
●Always check that all passen-
gers’ arms, heads or other parts 
of their body are not outside the 
vehicle.
●Do not drive in excess of the 
speed limit. Even if the legal 
speed limit permits it, do not 
drive over 85 mph (140 km/h) 
unless your vehicle has high-
speed capability tires. Driving 
over 85 mph (140 km/h) may 
result in tire fa ilure, loss of con-
trol and possible injury. Be sure 
to consult a tire dealer to deter-
mine whether the tires on your 
vehicle are high-speed capabil-
ity tires or not before driving at 
such speeds.
■When driving on slippery 
road surfaces
●Sudden braking, acceleration 
and steering may cause tire 
slippage and reduce your ability 
to control the vehicle.

ASC (Active Sound 
Control)*
The ASC is a system that 
conveys the operating con-
ditions, such as accelera-
tion and deceleration of the 
vehicle, with sounds to the 
driver. The vehicle’s reac-
tion with regards to the 
driver’s acceleration and 
brake operations are con-
veyed with sound. The 
respective tone changes for 
normal mode and sport 
mode. ( P.313)

■Emergency steering assist
If the system determines that 
the possibility of a frontal colli-
sion is high and that there is suf-
ficient space for the vehicle to 
be steered into within its lane, 
and the driver has begun eva-
sive maneuver or steering, 
emergency steering assist will 
assist the steering movements 
to help enhance the vehicle sta-
bility and for lane departure pre-
vention. During operation, the 
indicator will illuminate in green.
■Intersection right/left turn 
assistance
If the system determines that 
there is a high possibility of a 
collision in the following situa-
tions, it will assist with Pre-colli-
sion warning and, if necessary 
Pre-collision braking.
Depending on the configuration 
of the intersection, it may not be 
possible to support.
 When you turn right/left at an 
intersection and cross the 
path of an oncoming vehicle 
When you turn right/left, 
pedestrian is detected in the 
forward direction and esti-
mated to enter your vehicle’s 
path (bicyclists are not 
detected.)WARNING
■Limitations of the pre-colli-
sion system
●The driver is solely responsible 
for safe driving. Always drive 
safely, taking care to observe 
your surroundings.
Do not use the pre-collision sys-
tem instead of normal braking 
operations under any circum-
stances. This system will not 
prevent collisions or lessen col-
lision damage or injury in every 
situation. Do not overly rely on 
this system. Failure to do so 
may lead to an accident, result-
ing in death or serious injury.

WARNING
■Before using LTA system
●Do not rely solely upon the LTA 
system. The LTA system does 
not automatically drive the vehi-
cle or reduce the amount of 
attention that must be paid to 
the area in front of the vehicle. 
The driver must always assume 
full responsibility for driving 
safely by paying careful atten-
tion to the surrounding condi-
tions and operating the steering 
wheel to correct the path of the 
vehicle. Also, the driver must 
take adequate breaks when 
fatigued, such as from driving 
for a long period of time.
●Failure to perform appropriate 
driving operations and pay care-
ful attention may lead to an 
accident, resulting in death or 
serious injury.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA 
system
In the following situations, use the 
LTA switch to turn the system off. 
Failure to do so may lead to an 
accident, resulting in death or 
serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road sur-
face which is slippery due to 
rainy weather, fallen snow, 
freezing, etc.
●Vehicle is driven on a snow-cov-
ered road.
●White (yellow) lines are difficult 
to see due to rain, snow, fog, 
dust, etc.
●Vehicle is driven in a temporary 
lane or restricted lane due to 
construction work.
●Vehicle is driven in a construc-
tion zone.
●A spare tire, tire chains, etc., 
are equipped.
●When the tires have been 
excessively worn, or when the 
tire inflation p ressure is low.
●During emergency towing.
■Preventing LTA system mal-
functions and operations per-
formed by mistake
●Do not modify the headlights or 
place stickers, etc., on the sur-
face of the lights.
●Do not modify the suspension, 
etc. If the suspension, etc., 
needs to be replaced, contact 
your Toyota dealer.
●Do not install or place anything 
on the hood or grille. Also, do 
not install a gr ille guard (bull 
bars, kangaroo bar, etc.).
●If your windshield needs 
repairs, contact your Toyota 
dealer.
■Conditions in which functions 
may not operate properly
In the following  situations, the 
functions may not operate prop-
erly and the vehicle may depart

This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to 
approximately 328 ft. (100 m) ahead, determines the current vehicle-
to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable fol-
lowing distance from the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to- vehi-
cle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicl e 
distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, t he vehicle-to-vehicle distance may 
become shorter.
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the  speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration crui sing and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed 
appears
When a vehicle is detected runni ng ahead of you, the system automatically 
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle s peed is nec-
essary, the system applies the  brakes (the stop lights will come on at this 
time). The system will respond to  changes in the speed of the vehicle 
ahead in order to maintain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set  by the driver. 
Approach warning warns you when  the system cannot decelerate suffi-
ciently to prevent your vehicle  from closing in on the vehicle  ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you st ops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is 
stopped by system control). Afte r the vehicle ahead starts off, pressing the 
“+RES” switch or depressing the  accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will 
resume follow-up cruising. If the start-off operation is not pe rformed, system
