1-2.Child safety
Riding with children
Observe the following pre-
cautions when children are 
in the vehicle.
Use a child restraint system 
appropriate for the child, 
until the child becomes 
large enough to properly 
wear the vehicle’s seat belt.
It is recommended that chil-
dren sit in the rear seats to 
avoid accidental contact 
with the shift lever, wiper 
switch, etc.
 Use the rear door child-pro-
tector lock or the window 
lock switch to avoid children 
opening the door while driv-
ing or operating the power 
window accidentally. 
( P.113, 160)
 Do not let small children 
operate equipment which 
may catch or pinch body 
parts, such as the power 
window, hood, back door, 
seats, etc.
WA R N I N G
■When children are in the vehi-
cle
Never leave children unattended 
in the vehicle, and never allow 
children to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the 
vehicle or shift the vehicle into 
neutral. There is also a danger 
that children ma y injure them-
selves by playing with the side 
windows, the moon roof (if 
equipped), the panoramic moon 
roof (if equipped) or other features 
of the vehicle. In addition, heat 
build-up or extremely cold tem-
peratures inside the vehicle can 
be fatal to children.

2304-5. Using the driving support systems
●In the following situations, if the 
situation has changed (or the 
vehicle has been driven for some 
time) and the normal operating 
conditions are  detected, the mes-
sage will disappea r and the sys-
tem will become o perational. 
If the message does not disappear, 
contact your Toyota dealer.
• When the temperature around the  radar sensor is outside of the 
operational range, such as when 
the vehicle is in  the sun or in an 
extremely cold environment
• When the front camera cannot 
detect objects in  front of the vehi-
cle, such as when driving in the 
dark, snow, or fog, or when bright 
lights are shinin g into the front 
camera
The system can detect the fol-
lowing:
 Vehicles
 Bicyclists
 Pedestrians
The area in front 
of the front cam-
era is 
obstructed, such 
as when the 
hood is open or 
a sticker is 
attached to the 
part of the wind-
shield in front of 
the front camera.
Close the hood, 
remove the 
sticker, etc. to 
clear the 
obstruction.
SituationActionsPCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system 
uses a radar sensor and 
front camera to detect 
objects ( P.229) in front of 
the vehicle. When the sys-
tem determines that the 
possibility of a frontal colli-
sion with an object is high, 
a warning operates to urge 
the driver to take evasive 
action and the potential 
brake pressure is increased 
to help the driver avoid the 
collision. If the system 
determines that the possi-
bility of a frontal collision 
with an object is extremely 
high, the brakes are auto-
matically applied to help 
avoid the collision or help 
reduce the impact of the 
collision.
The pre-collision system can 
be disabled/enabled and the 
warning timing can be 
changed. ( P.232)

large, the battery fluid tempera-
ture is excessively low or the bat-
tery has deteriorated.

ditioning system: When the air con-
ditioning is in automatic mode and 
the engine is stopped by the Stop & 
Start system, the fan may operate at
