■Stopping the hybrid system in an emergency
●If 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.526)
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.
●If the power switch is operated while the vehicle is running, a warn-ing message will be shown on the
multi-information display and a buzzer sounds.
●When restarting the hybrid system after an emergency shutdown, shift the shift lever to N and press the
power switch shortly and firmly.

A system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be a malfunction in the sys-
tem.
●In the following situations, perform the actions specified in the table. When the nor-
mal operating conditions are detected, the message will disappear and the system
will become operational.
If the message does not disappear, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●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 disappear and the system will become operational.
SituationActions
When the area around a camera is cov-
ered with dirt, moisture (fogged up, cov-
ered with condensation, ice, etc.), or
other foreign matterUsing the wiper and A/C function,
remove the dirt and other attached mat-
ter. (P.431)
When the temperature around the front
camera is outside of the operational
range, such as when the vehicle is in the
sun or in an extremely cold environment
If the front camera is hot, such as after
the vehicle had been parked in the sun,
use the air conditioning system to
decrease the temperature around the
front camera.
If a sunshade was used when the vehicle
was parked, depending on its type, the
sunlight reflected from the surface of the
sunshade may cause the temperature of
the front camera to become excessively
high.
If the front camera is cold, such as after
the vehicle is parked in an extremely cold
environment, use the air conditioning
system to increase the temperature
around the front camera.
The area in front of the front camera is
obstructed, such as when the hood is
open or a sticker is attached to the part of
the windshield in front of the front cam-
era.
Close the hood, remove the sticker, etc.
to clear the obstruction.
When “Pre-Collision System Radar In
Self Calibration Unavailable See
Owner’s Manual” is displayed.Check whether there is attached materi-
als on the radar sensor and radar sensor
cover, and if there is, remove it.

■Lane centering function
This function is linked with dynamic
radar cruise control with full-speed
range and provides the required
assistance by operating the steer-
ing wheel to keep the vehicle in its
current lane.
When dynamic radar cruise control with
full-speed range is not operating, the
lane centering function does not oper-
ate.
In situations where the white (yellow)
lane lines are difficult to see or are not
visible, such as when in a traffic jam,
this function will operate to help follow a
preceding vehicle by monitoring the
position of the preceding vehicle.
■Turning the lane centering
function ON/OFF
Press the LTA switch.
The lane centering function will change
between ON/OFF each time the switch
is pressed.

*1: Displayed simultaneously with
speed limit.
*2: Contents not recognized.
*3: If the turn signal indicator is not
operated when changing lanes, the
mark does not display.
In the following situations, the RSA
system will notify the driver.
When the vehicle speed exceeds
the speed notification threshold
of the speed limit sign displayed,
the sign display will be empha-
sized and a buzzer will sound.
When the RSA system recog-
nizes a no-entry sign and detects
that the vehicle has entered a
no-entry area based on the map
information of the navigation sys-
tem, the no-entry sign flashes
and a buzzer will sound. (For
vehicles with navigation system)
If it is detected that your vehicle
is overtaking when a no overtak-
ing sign is displayed on the multi-
information display, the dis-
played sign will flash and a steer-
ing wheel will vibrate.
Depending on the situation, traffic
environment (traffic direction, speed unit) may be detected incor-
rectly and a notification function
may not operate properly.

Notification function

3725-5. Using the driving support systems
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-
ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the sys-
tem applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this time). The system will
respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. Approach warning warns you when the sys-
tem cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the
vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is stopped
by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pressing the “+RES” switch or
depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will resume follow-up cruising.
If the start-off operation is not performed, system control continues to keep your
vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves to an overtaking lane
while driving at 80 km/h (50 mph) or more, the vehicle will accelerate to help to over-
take a passing vehicle.
The system’s identification of what is an overtaking lane may be determined solely
based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left side driver position
versus right side driver position.) If the vehicle is driven to a region where the over-
taking lane is on a different side from where the vehicle is normally driven, the vehi-
cle may accelerate when the turn signal lever is operated in the opposite direction to
the overtaking lane (e.g., if the driver normally operates the vehicle in a region
where the overtaking lane is to the right but then drives to a region where the over-
taking lane is to the left, the vehicle may accelerate when the right turn signal is acti-
vated).
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the
set speed
The system accelerates until the set speed is reached. The system then returns to
constant speed cruising.
1Press the cruise control main
switch to activate the cruise con-
trol.
Dynamic radar cruise control indicator
will come on and a message will be dis-
played on the multi-information display.
Press the switch again to deactivate the
cruise control.If the cruise control main switch is
pressed and held for 1.5 seconds or
more, the system turns on in constant
speed control mode. (P.377)
