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

WARNI NG
12 V batteryThe Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and specification.All work must be carried out only by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more tyres.
WARNI NG
Under-inflation detection does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) as well as before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):– worsens road-holding.– lengthens braking distances.– causes premature wear of the tyres.– increases fuel consumption.
NOTIC E
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label.For more information on the Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
Checking tyre pressuresThis check should be done when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after
a journey of less than 10 km (6 miles) at moderate speeds).Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
NOTIC E
Snow chainsThe system does not have to be reinitialised after fitting or removing snow chains.
NOTIC E
Spare wheelThe steel spare wheel does not have an under-inflation detection sensor.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and, depending on equipment, the display of a message.► Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive steering movements and avoid sudden braking.► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
WARNI NG
The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the tyre.Do not rely on just a visual check.
► Using a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the pressures of all four tyres when cold.

169
Driving

► If it is not possible to carry out this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.► In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (depending on equipment).
WARNI NG
Driving too slowly may not ensure optimum monitoring.
The alert is not immediately triggered in the event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre blow-out. This is because analysis of the values read by the wheel's speed sensors can take several minutes.The alert may be delayed at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty driving mode.
NOTIC E
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
Reinitialise the system after adjusting one or more tyre pressures and after changing one or more wheels.
WARNI NG
Before reinitialising the system, make sure that the pressures of the four tyres are correct for the conditions of use of the vehicle and
conform to the values written on the tyre pressure label.Check the pressures of the four tyres before performing the reinitialisation.The system does not advise if a pressure is incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.
Without audio system


► With the vehicle stationary, press this button for about 3 seconds then release it. Reinitialisation is confirmed by an audible signal.
With audio system or touch screen
With the vehicle stationary, the system is reinitialised via the vehicle configuration menu.
Malfunction
In the event of a malfunction, these warning lamps light up on the instrument panel.In this case, the tyre under-inflation monitoring function is no longer performed.Have it checked by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

NOTIC E
Other camerasThe images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen or on the instrument panel may be distorted by the relief.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 the associated functions may be disturbed by sound interference 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.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
MatsThe use of mats 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 speed
Ensure 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.

Blind Spot Monitoring
System
WARNI NG
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).

The warning is given by a fixed warning lamp that appears in the door mirror on the side in question:– immediately, when being overtaken;– after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
Operation
Sensors fitted in the front and rear bumpers monitor the blind spots.The alert is given by an orange warning lamp coming on in the relevant door mirror, as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected.The following conditions must be met for this:– all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent lanes,– the speed of your vehicle must be between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),– you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),– a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 16 mph (25 km/h),– the traffic is flowing normally,
– overtaking a vehicle over a certain period of time where the vehicle being overtaken remains in the blind spot,– you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,– your vehicle is not towing a trailer, a caravan, etc.


No alert will be given in the following situations:
– in the presence of non-moving objects (parked vehicles, safety barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.),

In the event of a fault, this or these warning lamp(s) flash(es).orThe warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.Consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
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.
Rear parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse gear, which is confirmed by an audible signal.The system is switched off when disengaging reverse gear.

192
Audible assistance

The function signals the presence of obstacles present within the sensors’ detection zone.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 thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) allows you to identify the side on which the obstacle is located.
Visual assistance


This supplements the audible signal by displaying bars on the screen that move progressively nearer to the vehicle (green: more distant obstacles; yellow: 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 relative to the vehicle, in front or behind it.
Deactivation/Activation
Without audio system


► To deactivate or activate the system, press this button.The indicator lamp is on when the system is deactivated.
With audio system or touch screen
The settings are changed via the vehicle configuration menu.
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.

Top Rear Vision
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.


As soon as reverse gear is engaged with the engine running, this system displays views of your vehicle’s close surroundings on the touch screen using a camera located at the rear of the vehicle.



The screen is divided into two parts with a contextual view and a view from above the vehicle in its close surroundings.The parking sensors supplement the information on the view from above the vehicle.Various contextual views may be displayed:– Standard view.– 180° view.– Zoom view.AUTO mode is activated by default.In this mode, the system chooses to display the best view (standard or zoom).You can change the type of view at any time during a manoeuvre.The state of the function is not saved when the
ignition is switched off.
Principle of operation

Using the rear camera, the vehicle's close surroundings are recorded during manoeuvres at low speed.An image from above your vehicle in its close surroundings is reconstructed (represented between the brackets) in real time and as the manoeuvre progresses.It facilitates the alignment of your vehicle when parking and allows obstacles close to the vehicle to be seen. It is automatically deleted if the vehicle remains stationary for too long.
Activation
Activation is automatic on engaging reverse gear at a speed lower than 6 mph (10 km/h).

NOTIC E
The function will be deactivated:– If a trailer is attached or a bicycle carrier is fitted on a towing device (vehicle fitted with a towing device installed in line with the manufacturer's recommendations).– Above about 6 mph (10 km/h).– When the boot is opened.– Upon changing out of reverse gear (the image remains displayed for 7 seconds).– By pressing the white arrow in the upper-left corner of the touch screen.
AUTO mode

This mode is activated by default.Using sensors in the rear bumper, the automatic view changes from the rear view (standard) to the view from above (zoom) as an obstacle is approached at the level of the red line (less than 30 cm) during a manoeuvre.
Standard view

The area behind the vehicle is displayed on the screen.The blue lines 1 represent the width of your vehicle, with the mirrors unfolded; their direction changes depending on the position of the steering wheel.The red line 2 represents a distance of 30 cm (0 ft 11") from the rear bumper; the two blue lines 3 and 4 represent 1 m and 2 m (3 ft 3" and 6 ft 6"), respectively.
This view is available with AUTO mode or in the view selection menu.
