Manual child lock
Mechanical system to prevent opening of the sliding side door using its interior lever.

Locking/Unlocking
► Rotate the control located on the edge of the side door up to lock it, or down to unlock it.

147
Safety
5
Electric child lock
Remote control system to prevent opening of the rear doors (sliding side door(s), side-hinged rear doors or tailgate (depending on version)) using their interior controls.
This control prevents the opening of the rear doors using their interior handles and the use of the rear electric windows.
Activation/Deactivation


► With the ignition on, press this button to activate/deactivate the child lock.A message is displayed, confirming activation/deactivation of the child lock.When the indicator lamp is on, the child lock is activated.
NOTIC E
In the event of a serious impact, the electric child lock is deactivated automatically.
WARNI NG
Any other status of the indicator lamp indicates a malfunction of the electric child lock.Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
NOTIC E
With the child lock activated, it is still possible to open the doors from outside.
WARNI NG
This system is independent and in no circumstances does it take the place of the central locking control.Check the status of the child lock each time you switch on the ignition.Always keep the electronic key with you when leaving the vehicle, even for a short time.In the event of a serious impact, the electric child lock is switched off automatically to permit the exit of the rear passengers.
Child lock on rear
windows
This mechanical system prevents opening of the left-hand and/or right-hand rear side windows.

► The system is locked/unlocked using the remote control key or the back-up key for the Smart Entry & Start system.

Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.► Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.► Stop the vehicle to carry out operations that require close attention (such as adjustments).► During long trips, take a break every two hours.To ensure the durability of the vehicle and for safety reasons, remember that certain precautionary measures must be taken when driving the vehicle:
Manoeuvre cautiously, at low speed
Manoeuvre slowly.Before turning, check that there are no obstacles at mid-height along the sides.Before reversing, check that there are no
obstacles, particularly at high level behind the vehicle.Be aware of the external dimensions, if ladders are fitted.
Drive the vehicle carefully
Take corners gently.Anticipate the need to brake as the stopping distance is increased, particularly on wet or icy roads.
Be aware of the effect of side winds on the vehicle.
Maintenance
Inflate to the minimum pressure indicated on the label, or even over-inflate by 0.2 to 0.3 bar for long journeys.
Important!
WARNI NG
Never leave the engine running in a closed space without sufficient ventilation. Internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
WARNI NG
In severe wintry conditions (temperature below -23°C), let the engine run for 4 minutes before moving off, to ensure the correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle (engine and gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never drive with the parking brake applied. Risk of overheating and damage to the braking system!
WARNI NG
Do not park the vehicle or leave the engine running on a flammable surface (dry grass, dead leaves, etc.). The exhaust system of your vehicle is very hot, even several minutes after the engine stops. Risk of fire!
WARNI NG
Never leave a vehicle unattended with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the gearbox into neutral or position N or P (depending on the type of gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised.
On flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as to your vehicle's
electrical systems.

149
Driving
6
If the vehicle absolutely must drive through a flooded section of road:► Check that the depth of the water does not exceed 15 cm, taking account of waves that might be generated by other users.► Deactivate the Stop & Start function.► Drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 6 mph (10 km/h).► Do not stop and do not switch off the motor.On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety conditions allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.If in doubt about the state of your vehicle, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Noise (Electric)
On the outside
Due to the vehicle’s quiet operation when driving, the driver must pay particular attention.At speeds of up to 19 mph (30 km/h), the pedestrian horn warns other road users of the vehicle’s presence.
NOTIC E
Cooling the traction batteryThe cooling fan comes on during charging to cool the on-board charger and the traction battery.
On the inside
During use, you may hear certain perfectly normal noises specific to electric vehicles, such as:– Traction battery relay when starting.– Vacuum pump when braking.– Vehicle tyres or aerodynamics when driving.– Jolting and knocking noise during hill starts.
In case of towing
WARNI NG
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and requires extra care from the driver.
NOTIC E
Respect the maximum towable weights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by
10% per 1,000 metres (3,280 ft) of altitude; the density of the air decreases with altitude and the performance of the engine reduces.
WARNI NG
New vehicle: do not pull a trailer before having driven at least 1,000 kilometres (620 miles).
NOTIC E
If the outside temperature is high, let the
engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.

150
NOTIC E
If a genuine TOYOTA towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill causes the coolant temperature to increase. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The fan’s cooling capacity does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed to limit the amount of heating produced.In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer. To avoid overheating the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind that the vehicle will be more susceptible to wind when towing.
Anti-theft protection
Electronic immobiliser
The remote control contains an electronic chip which has a special code. When the ignition is switched on, this code must be recognised in order for starting to be possible.A few seconds after switching off the ignition, this system locks the engine control system, therefore preventing the engine from being started in the event of a break-in.In the event of a fault, you are informed by illumination of this warning lamp, an audible signal and a message on the screen.The vehicle will not start; contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
Starting/switching off the
engine
Starting
The parking brake must be applied.
► With a manual gearbox, place the gear lever in neutral, fully depress the clutch pedal and keep the pedal down until the engine starts.► With an automatic gearbox, place the selector in position P then depress the brake pedal.
