Driving aidsYou should hold the steering wheel with both hands, always use the interior and exterior rear view mirrors, always keep the feet close to the pedals and take a break every two hours.
NOTIC E
Manoeuvring aidsThe driver must always check the surroundings of the vehicle before and during the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the mirrors.
WARNI NG
Radar(s)The operation of the radar(s), along with any associated functions, may be affected by the accumulation of dirt (e.g. mud, ice), in poor weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain, snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer; certain types of paint could interfere with the operation of the radar(s).


WARNI NG
Driving aids cameraThis camera and its associated functions may be impaired or not work if the windscreen area in front of the camera is dirty, misty, frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked by a sticker.In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.In the event of a windscreen replacement, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the operation of the associated driving aids may be disrupted.
NOTIC E
Other camerasThe images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen or on the instrument panel may be distorted by the terrain.In the presence of areas in shade, or in conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate lighting, the image may be darkened and with lower contrast.Obstacles may appear further away than they actually are.
WARNI NG
SensorsThe operation of the sensors, as well as any associated functions, may be disrupted by noise pollution such as that emitted by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries, pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.When reverse gear is engaged, an audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.A front or rear impact to the vehicle can upset the sensors’ settings, which is not always detected by the system: distance measurements may be distorted.

156
The sensors do not systematically detect obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs) or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind spots may not be detected or may no longer be detected during the manoeuvre.Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
NOTIC E
MaintenanceClean the bumpers and door mirrors and the field of vision of the cameras regularly.When washing your vehicle at high pressure, direct the spray from at least 30 cm away from the radar, sensors and cameras.
WARNI NG
Mats/Pedal trimsThe use of mats or pedal trims not approved
by TOYOTA may interfere with the operation of the speed limiter or cruise control.To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:– Ensure that the mat is secured correctly.– Never fit one mat on top of another.
NOTIC E
Units of speedEnsure that the units of speed displayed on the instrument panel (km/h or mph) are those for the country you are driving in.If this is not the case, when the vehicle is stationary, set the display to the required units of speed so that it complies with what is authorised locally.In case of doubt, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


This system displays the maximum speed authorised locally on the instrument panel, using:
– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.– Speed limit information from the navigation system's mapping.– Signs indicating a shared traffic zone detected by the camera.
Sign detectedSuggested speed (calculated)
Entry into an intersection areaExample:

Without TOYOTA Connect Nav20 km/h or 10 mph (depending on the units of the instrument panel)With TOYOTA Connect NavDisplay of the speed in force in the country in which you are driving.

Speed limit at certain timesExample:

30 km/h (19 mph) (for example)with a "clock" symbol
WARNI NG
Navigation mapping should be regularly updated in order to receive accurate speed limit information from the system.
WARNI NG
The units for the speed limit (km/h or mph) depend on the country you are driving in.This should be taken into account so that you observe the speed limit.For the system to work correctly when changing country, the speed unit in the instrument panel must correspond to that of the country you are driving in.
WARNI NG
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always display speed limits correctly.The speed limit signs present on the road always take priority over the display by the system. The system is designed to detect signs that conform to the Vienna Convention on road signs.
NOTIC E
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated when passing a speed limit sign intended for cars (light vehicles).

176
WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– Insufficient contrast between the road surface and the verge or hard shoulders (e.g. shade).– Lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.).– Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane markings may not be detected).– Roads that are narrow, winding.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the following situations:– When changing a wheel or working near a wheel.– Towing or with a bycicle carrier on a towing device, especially with trailer not plugged in or not approved.
– Road in poor condition, unstable or with very poor grip (risk of aquaplaning, snow, ice).– Adverse weather conditions.– Driving on racing circuit.– Driving on a rolling road.
Deactivation / Activation


► Press this button to deactivate / reactivate the system at any time. Deactivation is signalled by the lighting of the indicator lamp in the button and this warning lamp in the instrument panel.The system is automatically reactivated every time the ignition is switched on.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, these warning lamps come on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an onscreen message and an audible signal.Have the system checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Blind Spot Monitoring
System
WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


This system includes sensors, placed on the sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of the potentially dangerous presence of another vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden from the driver's field of vision).

178
– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).– Oncoming traffic.– Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner.– When overtaking or being overtaken by a very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is detected in the rear blind spot but is also present in the driver’s front field of vision.– When overtaking quickly.– In very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorry or a stationary object.
Malfunction
If the event of malfunction, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
NOTIC E
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail, etc.).In particular, driving on a wet surface or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper correct operation of the system.
Distraction detection
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
Depending on version, the function consists of either the "Coffee Break Alert" system alone or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert" system.
WARNI NG
These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent the driver from falling asleep at the wheel. It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling tired.Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the Driving / Vehicle touch screen menu.The state of the system is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Coffee Break Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects that the driver has not taken a break after two hours of driving at a speed above 43 mph (70 km/h).This alert is issued via the display of a message encouraging the driver to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:– With the engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes.– The ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes.– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is opened.
NOTIC E
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 43 mph (70 km/h).

Driver Attention Alert
Depending on version, the "Coffee Break Alert" system is combined with the "Driver Attention Alert" system.

The system assesses the driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by identifying variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings.To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on the upper part of the windscreen.This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 70 km/h (43 mph)).At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the “Take care!” message, accompanied by an audible signal.After three first-level alerts, the system triggers a further alert with the message "Dangerous driving: take a break", accompanied by a more pronounced audible signal.
WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– poor visibility (inadequate lighting of the road, falling snow, heavy rain, dense fog, etc.);– dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light, etc.);– windscreen area located in front of the camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged or covered by a sticker.– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.);– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected);– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.
NOTIC E
In certain driving conditions (poor road surface or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks),– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected),– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.
Parking sensors
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


Using sensors located in the bumper, this
system signals the proximity of obstacles (e.g. pedestrian, vehicle, tree, barrier) present in their field of detection.

180
Rear parking sensors
► Engage reverse gear to start the system (confirmed by an audible signal).The system is switched off when reverse gear is disengaged.
Audible assistance

The system signals the presence of obstacles which are both within the sensors’ detection zone and in the vehicle path defined by the direction of the steering wheel.

Depending on version, in the example shown, only the obstacles present in the shaded area will be signalled by the audible assistance.The proximity information is given by an intermittent audible signal, the frequency of
which increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle becomes less than about 30 cm (0 ft 11"), the audible signal becomes continuous.The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.
NOTIC E
Adjusting the audible signalWith TOYOTA Connect Radio or TOYOTA Connect Nav, pressing this button opens the window for adjusting the volume of the audible signal.
Visual assistance

It supplements the audible assistance, without taking account of the vehicle's trajectory, by displaying bars on the screen that represent the distance between the obstacle and the vehicle (white: more distant obstacles, orange: close obstacles, red: very close obstacles).
When the obstacle is very close, the "Danger" symbol is displayed on the screen.
Front parking sensors
In addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle is still below 10 km/h (6 mph).The front parking sensors are interrupted if the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in forward gear, if an obstacle is no longer detected or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph).
NOTIC E
The sound emitted by the speaker (front or rear) locates the obstacle in relation to the vehicle, in the vehicle trajectory, in front or behind.

181
Driving

Side parking sensors

Using four additional sensors located on the sides of the front and rear bumpers, the system records the position of fixed obstacles during the manoeuvre and signals them when they are located by the sides of the vehicle.
WARNI NG
Only fixed obstacles are signalled correctly. Moving obstacles detected at the beginning of the manoeuvre may be signalled mistakenly, while moving obstacles which appear at the sides of the vehicle and which were not previously recorded will not be signalled.
WARNI NG
The objects memorised during the manoeuvre will no longer be stored after switching off the ignition.
Deactivation / Activation
Without touch screen


► To deactivate or activate the system, press this button.The indicator lamp is lit when the system is deactivated.
With touch screen
The settings are changed via the Driving / Vehicle touch screen menu.The state of the system stays in the memory when the ignition is switched off.

NOTIC E
The rear parking sensors system will be deactivated automatically if a trailer or bicycle carrier is connected to a towing device installed in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.In this case, the outline of a trailer is displayed at the rear of the image of the vehicle.
The parking sensors are deactivated while the Park Assist function is measuring a space.For more information on the Park Assist, refer to the corresponding section.
Operating limits
If the boot is heavily loaded, the vehicle may tilt, affecting distance measurements.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction when changing into reverse gear, this warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel,
accompanied by the display of a message and an audible signal (short beep).Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

Reversing camera

WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
With the ignition on, this system uses a camera located near the third brake lamp to display a view of the rear of your vehicle on the reproduction screen (if it is a panel van or has a solid partition).The reversing camera is activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged. The image is displayed on the reproduction screen. The reproduction screen switches off when the gearbox is in neutral or in a forward gear.


The blue lines 1 represent the general direction of the vehicle (the gap corresponds to the width of your vehicle with the mirrors).The red line 2 represents a distance of about 30 cm (0 ft 11") beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear bumper.The green lines 3 represent distances of about 1 and 2 metres (3 ft 3" and 6 ft 6") beyond the edge of your vehicle's rear bumper.The turquoise blue curves 4 represent the maximum turning circle.
