WARNI NG
In all circumstances, ensure that the selector is in position P before leaving your vehicle.
Malfunction
When the ignition is on, a message appears on the instrument panel to indicate a fault with the gearbox.In this case, the gearbox goes into back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a significant jolt (without risk to the gearbox) when changing from P to R and from N to R.Do not exceed 62 mph (100 km/h), local speed restrictions permitting.Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
WARNI NG
There is a risk of damaging the gearbox:– If the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed simultaneously.– In the event of a battery failure, forcing the selector from position P to another position.
WARNI NG
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, do not try to start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Drive selector (Electric)

The drive selector is a pulse selector with a regenerative braking function.The drive selector provides traction control based on the driving style, the road profile and the vehicle load.With regenerative braking activated, it also manages engine braking when the accelerator pedal is released.
P.ParkButton for parking the vehicle: the front wheels are locked (the button lights up to indicate that it is activated).
R.ReverseTo engage reverse gear, with your foot on the brake pedal.
N.NeutralTo move the vehicle with the ignition off and so allow it to free-wheel.For more information on Free-wheeling, refer to the corresponding section.
D.Drive (automatic forward gear)
B.Brake (regenerative braking)Button for changing to Drive/automatic forward gear mode with regenerative braking function (the button lights up to indicate that it is activated).
Information displayed on
the instrument panel
When the ignition is switched on, the drive selector status is displayed on the instrument panel:P: Park.R: Reverse.
N: Neutral.D: Drive (automatic forward gear).B: Brake (automatic forward gear with regenerative braking function activated).
Operation
► Move the selector by pressing it forwards (N or R) or rearwards (N or D) once or twice, passing the point of resistance if necessary.

Eco
Optimises energy consumption, by reducing the output of the heating and air conditioning (without actually deactivating them) and limiting both motor torque and power.
Power
Provides equivalent vehicle performance when fully laden (GVW) to when the vehicle is in Normal mode and when unladen.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights, queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as the driver wishes to move off again.Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.
WARNI NG
Driving on flooded roadsBefore entering into a flooded area, it is strongly recommended that you deactivate the Stop & Start system.For more information on Driving recommendations, particularly on flooded roads, refer to the corresponding section.

Accessing the AdBlue® tank

► To access the AdBlue® tank, open the front left-hand door.
► From below, pull the black cover.
► Turn the blue cap a 6th of a turn anti-clockwise.► Release the cap upwards.► With a container of AdBlue®: after checking the expiry date, read the instructions on the label carefully before pouring the contents of the container into the vehicle's AdBlue tank.► With an AdBlue® pump: insert the nozzle and fill the tank until the nozzle automatically cuts out.► After filling, perform the same sequence of operations in reverse order.

► Refit the black cover, starting at the top.
WARNI NG
In order not to overfill the AdBlue® tank:– Add between 10 and 13 litres using AdBlue® containers.– Stop after the nozzle’s first automatic cut-out, if you are refilling at a service station.The system only registers AdBlue® top-ups of 5 litres or more.
WARNI NG
If the AdBlue® tank is completely empty – which is confirmed by the message "Top up AdBlue: Starting impossible" – it is essential to add at least 5 litres.
Free-wheeling
In certain situations, you must allow the vehicle to free-wheel (while being towed, on a rolling road, in an automatic car wash, or being transported by rail or sea freight, etc.).The procedure varies according to the type of gearbox and parking brake.

NOTIC E
Use a soft sponge and soapy water or a pH neutral product.Gently wipe the bodywork with a clean microfibre cloth.Apply polish with the vehicle clean and dry.Comply with the instructions for use stated on the product.
Textured paint
This type of paint reacts under the effect of light, through variations in appearance and finish that highlight the lines and contours of the vehicle. Its varnish is enriched with particles that remain visible and create a unique satin effect with relief. Its slightly granular texture gives it a surprising touch.
WARNI NG
Never attempt to clean without water.
Never clean your vehicle in an automatic roller-brush car wash.Never select the programme with hot wax finish.Never use high-pressure lances equipped with brushes - risk of scratching paint!Never apply glossy polish or preservatives to the bodywork or alloy wheels; these products irreversibly reveal glossy or spotted areas.
NOTIC E
Choose high-pressure wash, or at least high-flow water jet.Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.Only a clean microfibre cloth is recommended for wiping the vehicle; pass it over the vehicle without rubbing.Carefully wipe off any fuel spilt on the bodywork using a soft cloth, then allow to dry.Clean off minor marks (for example, finger marks), using a maintenance product recommended by TOYOTA.
Decals
(Depending on version)
WARNI NG
Do not use a high pressure washer to clean the vehicle. Risk of damaging or detaching the decals!
NOTIC E
Use a high-flow hose at a temperature between 25°C and 40°C.Sweep the jet of water across the surface to
be cleaned, perpendicular to it.Rinse the vehicle with demineralised water.
Leather
Leather is a natural product. Appropriate regular care is essential for its durability.It must be protected and nourished using a specific leather product, to keep it supple and preserve its original appearance.
WARNI NG
Do not clean leather using unsuitable
cleaning agents such as solvents, detergents, petrol or pure alcohol.When cleaning items partly made from leather, take care not to damage the other materials with the specific leather product.
NOTIC E
Before cleaning greasy stains or liquids, quickly mop up any surplus.Before cleaning, wipe off any residues liable to scuff the leather, using a cloth that has been dampened with demineralised water and thoroughly wrung out.Clean leather using a soft cloth moistened with soapy water or a pH-neutral product.Dry with a soft, dry cloth.

WARNI NG
The headlamps have polycarbonate lenses with a protective coating:– Do not clean them with a dry or abrasive cloth, nor with detergent or solvent products.– Use a sponge and soapy water or a pH neutral product.– When using a high-pressure washer on persistent marks, do not keep the lance directed towards the headlamps, lamps or their edges for too long, so as not to damage their protective coating and seals.
WARNI NG
Changing a bulb must only be done with the ignition off and after the headlamp / lamp has been switched off for several minutes - risk of serious burns!Do not touch the bulb directly with your fingers; use a lint-free cloth.It is essential only to use anti-ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs, so as not to damage the headlamp.Always replace a failed bulb with a new bulb of the same type and specification. To avoid lighting imbalance, replace the bulbs in pairs.
NOTIC E
Halogen bulbs (Hx)To ensure good quality lighting, check that the bulb is correctly positioned in its housing.
WARNI NG
Opening the bonnet/Accessing the bulbsProceed with caution when the engine is hot - risk of burns!Take care with objects or clothing that could be caught in the blades of the cooling fan - risk of strangulation!
