Hold down the button for at least 5 sec-
onds. The odometer indicates “000000”
and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
remain flashing.
(k) “VSC” warning light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the vehicle stability control
system.
The light will come on when the “IG−ON”
mode is enabled and will go off after the
“READY” light comes on.
If the light comes on while driving, the
system does not work. However, as con-
ventional braking operates when applied,
there is no problem to continue your driv-
ing.
In the following cases, contact your Toyota
dealer:
The warning light does not come on
after the “IG −ON” mode is enabled.
The warning light remains on after the
“READY” light comes on.
The warning light comes on while you
are driving.
CAUTION
If the “VSC” warning light remains on
together with the red brake system
warning light, immediately stop your
vehicle at a safe place and contact
your Toyota dealer.
In this case, not only the vehicle sta-
bility control system will fail but also
the vehicle will become extremely un-
stable during braking.
(l) Key Reminder Buzzer
This buzzer reminds you to remove the
key if you open the driver’s door when the
hybrid system is off and the key is in-
serted into the key slot.
(m) Shift Position Reminder Buzzer
This buzzer will sound if the driver ’s door
is opened while the hybrid transaxle is in
“N”, “D” or “B”. CHECKING SERVICE REMINDER INDICA-
TORS (except the low fuel level indica-
tor light)
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Open one of the doors. The open door warning light should
come on.
3. Close the door. The open door warning light should go

4. Press the “POWER” switch twice with- out pressing the brake pedal to select
the “IG −ON” mode. At this time, all the
bulbs are checked in self −diagnosis
mode.
All the service reminder indicators ex-
cept the open door warning light come
on. The yellow brake system, “ABS”
and “VSC” warning lights go off after
a few seconds.
There may be the case that the yellow
brake system, “ABS” and “VSC” warning
lights stay on for about 60 seconds after
the “IG −ON” mode is enabled. It is normal
if they go out after a while.
If any service reminder indicator or warn-
ing buzzer does not function as described
above, have it checked by your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible.

(g) Vehicle driving characteristics
Creeping
In order to hold the vehicle properly on an
incline and for better accelerator pedal
operation at starting, your vehicle is de-
signed like a typical automatic transmis-
sion vehicle which tends to move without
depressing the accelerator pedal with the
transaxle in a position other than “P” or
“N”.
With the transaxle in a position other than
“P” or “N”, depress the brake pedal firmly
even when stopped and apply the parking
brake as required.
When moving in a compact area or during
a traffic jam, it is an effective way to
control the speed using only the brake
pedal operation without depressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
Regenerative brake
When the accelerator pedal is released or
the brake pedal is depressed, the electric
motor acts as a generator and converts
kinetic energy to electric energy to provide
deceleration and recover electric energy to
charge the hybrid vehicle battery.
At this time, the electric motor running
noise may increase.The operation is the same as a typical
gasoline powered vehicle.
You may experience the following condi-
tion while braking. As they do not indicate
a malfunction, perform braking as usual:
In the “OFF” mode, pressing the
“POWER” switch once or twice will se-
lect “ACC” or “IG
−ON” only if the brake
pedal is not depressed. In this condi-
tion, the brake pedal may move a little.
Hybrid driving
This vehicle runs in combination with the
gasoline engine and electric motor.
If the “READY” light is on, you can start
your vehicle even with the gasoline engine
stopped. (h) If the system malfunctions
In the following conditions, there is some
problem in the system.
The indicator on the “P” position switch
flashes. However, this does not indi-
cate a malfunction unless a warning
message appears in the multi
−informa-
tion display.
All frames of shift position indicators in
the instrument cluster flash.
The parking system error message ap-
pears on the multi −information display.
The instrument cluster and multi −infor-
mation display does not come on when
the “IG −ON” mode is enabled.
In these cases, stop your vehicle in a
safe and level place, apply the parking
brake securely and contact your Toyota
dealer immediately.
(i) When the auxiliary battery is dis- connected
Before you disconnect the aux iliary bat-
tery, confirm the shift position is “P” and
apply the parking brake completely.
After you reconnect the auxiliary battery,
shift the shift lever to “N” and confirm the
shift position is in “N” when the “IG −ON”
mode is enabled.

26p049b
When the “ACC” mode is enabled, the
initial screen appears and the system be-
gins operating.
After a few seconds, the previous mode
display will appear.
If the electrical power source has been
disconnected from the multi−information
display, the display will be automatically
set to the initial mode.
CAUTION
Do not adjust the display while the
vehicle is moving. Be sure to adjust
the display only when the vehicle is
stopped.
Switch operation
This system operates mainly by the
switches on the screen. To protect the
screen, lightly touch switches on the
screen with your finger. When you touch
a switch on the screen or on the bezel,
a beep sounds.
If the system does not respond to a
touch of a switch, move your finger
away from the screen and then touch
it again.
You cannot operate dimmed switches.
Wipe off fingerprints on the surface of
the display using a glass cleaning
cloth.

If manual fan speed control is desired—
27p114a
1. Fan speed at low
2. Fan speed at high
The fan speed can be set to your desired
speed by touching the appropriate air flow
control switch. The higher the fan speed
is, the more air is delivered. Touching the
“OFF” switch turns off the fan.
To remove exterior windshield frost, use the
high speed setting.
The selected mode is highlighted in green.
If manual switching of air intake is de-
sired—
27p115a
The air intake control switch is used to
switch the air intake between the OUT-
SIDE AIR mode and RECIRCULATED AIR
mode.
With the switch in the OUTSIDE AIR
mode, the system will take fresh outside
air into the vehicle.
If quick circulation of cooled air is de-
sired, touch the air intake control switch
for RECIRCULATED AIR.
The indicator will come on in the instru-
ment cluster while the RECIRCULATED
AIR mode is selected.If recirculated air is used during heating,
the windows will fog up more easily.
If the hybrid system is turned off in the
OUTSIDE AIR mode, the automatic control
of the air intake is activated when the
hybrid system is turned on again.
2way air intake control
To improve fuel economy, OUTSIDE AIR
mode control changes when the air in-
take selector is set in OUTSIDE AIR on
the following conditions:
When the maximum heating is needed
with the air flow in “Floor” or “Floor/
Windshield”, fresh air flows in the up-
per compartment, while air is recircu-
lated in the lower compartment.
When cooling is needed, both fresh
and recirculate modes turns on.

185
If manual onoff of the air conditioning
is desired—
Touch the “A/C” switch to turn the air
conditioning on and touch it again to turn
the air conditioning off.
If the system is used for ventilation, heat-
ing in dry weather or removing frost or
exterior fog on the windshield, turn the air
conditioning off once it is no longer re-
quired. This will improve fuel economy.
The air conditioning can be used for year−
round automatic temperature control in-
cluding cooling and dehumidifying opera-
tion.
27p116a
To remove interior fog on the wind-
shield—
Touch the front windshield switch.
To remove frost or exterior fog on the
windshield— 1. Touch the upper side of the tempera- ture control switch until maximum fig-
ure appears on the temperature dis-
play.
2. Touch the front windshield switch.
3. Push the “HI” of the air flow control switch to obtain a maximum air flow.
4. Leave the air conditioning on −off button

erate and the OUTSIDE AIR mode is set.
If you touch the front windshield switch
once again while in the FRONT WIND-
SHIELD mode, the mode then returns to
the last mode used.
The indicator will come on in the instru-
ment cluster while the FRONT WIND-
SHIELD mode is on.
CAUTION
Do not use the front windshield
switch during cooled air operation in
extremely humid weather. The differ-
ence between the temperature of the
outside air and that of the windshield
could cause the outer surface of the
windshield to fog up blocking your
vision.
