5-1. Before driving
Driving
QDriving in the rain
ODrive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and the road could be slippery.
ODrive carefully when it starts to rain, as the road surface could be espe-cially slippery.
ORefrain from high speeds when driv-ing on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-face, preventing the steering and
brakes from operating properly.
QECO Accelerator Guidance ( P.180)
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly
manner by driving while referring to the ECO Accelerator Guidance display. Also, by using the ECO Accelerator
Guidance it is easier to increase the “Eco Score” evaluation.
OWhen starting off: While staying within the ECO Accelerator Guidance range, gradually depress the accelerator
pedal and accelerate to the desired speed. If excessive acceleration is avoided, the “Start” score will
increase.
OWhen driving: After accelerating to the
desired speed, release the accelera- tor pedal and drive at a stable speed within the ECO Accelerator Guidance
range. By keeping the vehicle within the ECO Accelerator Guidance range, the “Cruise” score will increase.
OWhen stopping: When stopping the vehicle, early releasing the accelera-
tor pedal will cause the “Stop” score to increase.
QRestraining the hybrid system out-put (Brake Override System)
OWhen the accelerator and brake ped-als are depressed at the same time,
the hybrid system output may be restrained.
OA warning message is displayed on the multi-information display and
head-up display (if equipped) while
the system is operating.
QBreaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ- ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
OFor the first 300 km (200 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
OFor the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
OFor the first 1000 km (600 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low gears.• Do not drive at a constant speed for
extended periods.
QOperating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle regis-
tration laws and confirm the availability of the correct fuel. ( P.560)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
QWhen starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the
“READY” indicator is illuminated. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.

QWhen the ambient temperature is
low, such as during winter driving
conditions
OWhen starting the hybrid system, the
flashing time of the “READY” indicator
may be long. Leave the vehicle as it is
until the “READY” indicator is steady
on, as steady means the vehicle is
able to move.
OWhen the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) is extremely cold (below approxi-
mately -30°C [-22°F]) under the
influence of the outside temperature, it
may not be possible to start the hybrid
system. In this case, try to start the
hybrid system again after the tem-
perature of the hybrid battery
increases due to the outside tempera-
ture increase etc.

WARNING
QWhen starting the hybrid system
Always start the hybrid system while
sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the accelerator pedal while starting the hybrid system under any
circumstances. Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
QCaution while driving
If hybrid system failure occurs while
the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the doors until the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop.
Activation of the steering lock in this circumstance may lead to an acci-dent, resulting in death or serious
injury.
NOTICE
QWhen starting the hybrid system

Stopping the hybrid system
WARNING
QStopping the hybrid system in an emergency
OIf you want to stop the hybrid sys-tem in an emergency while driving the vehicle, press and hold the
power switch for more than 2 sec- onds, or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. ( P.500)
However, do not touch the power switch while driving except in an emergency. Turning the hybrid sys-
tem off while driving will not cause a loss of steering or braking control. However, power assist for the
steering wheel may be lost making it difficult to steer smoothly before stopping the vehicle depending on
the remaining charge in the 12-volt battery or usage conditions. In this situation, you should pull over and
stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

only: Selecting shift ranges in the D
position allows suitable use of
engine braking. ( P.279)
*3: By selecting shift ranges using S
mode, you can control accelerating
force and engine braking force.
QWhen driving with dynamic radar cruise control with full-speed range or cruise control activated (if
equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling
