WARNING
●This vehicle has Automatic
Trailer Detection feature that
can detect certain trailers under
certain conditions. After trailer is
detected, lane centering func-
tion will be disabled. In certain
conditions, there is a possibility

there is no actual trailer. In that
case, lane centering function
will be disabled. To activate lane
centering function, turn power
switch to off and then turn it on
again.
●Following scenes has possibility
of false detection of trailer:
Crowded environments such as
parking lots or camping
grounds, closely following vehi-
cles such traffic jam, drive
through, parallel parking, etc.
●Do not use the lane centering
system and steering assist func-
tion when the vehicle is lifted
unless using a Toyota official lift
up kit up to 4 in. (101 mm),
including tire height. Aftermar-
ket lift kits may degrade system
performance.
■Situations unsuitable for LTA
system
In the following situations, use the
LTA switch to turn the system off.
Failure to do so may lead to an
accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●Vehicle is driven on a road sur-
face which is slippery due to

connected to Toyota’s official
TBC ECU. ( P.181)
●When the vehicle is lifted up,
except in the following cases.
• When using a Toyota official lift kit up to 4 in. (101 mm), includ-
ing tire height. Aftermarket lift
kits may degrade system perfor-
mance.

functions and operations per-
formed by mistake

Driving
This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to
approximately 328 ft. (100 m) ahead, determines the current veh icle-
to-vehicle following distance, and operates to maintain a suitable fol-
lowing distance from the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to- vehi-
cle distance can also be set by operating the vehicle-to-vehicl e
distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, t he vehicle-to-vehicle distance may
become shorter.
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration crui sing and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed
appears
When a vehicle is detected runni ng ahead of you, the system automatically
decelerates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle s peed is nec-
essary, the system 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 vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver.
Approach warning warns you when the system cannot decelerate suffi-
ciently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you st ops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is
stopped by system control). Afte r 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 pe rformed, system

WARNING
●Do not use the panoramic view
monitor system in the following
cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or in snow
• When using tire chains or emer- gency tires
• When the front door or the tail- gate is not closed completely
• On roads that are not flat or straight, such as curves or
slopes
• If the suspension has been modified or tires of a size other
than specified are installed
●In low temperatures, the screen
may darken or the image may
become faint. The image could
distort when the vehicle is mov-
ing, or you may become unable
to see the image on the screen.
Be sure to visually check all
around the vehicle both directly
and using the mirrors before
proceeding.
●If the tire sizes are changed, the
position of the guide lines dis-
played on the screen may
change.
●The camera uses a special lens.
The distances between objects
and pedestrians that appear in
the image displayed on the
screen will differ from the actual
distances. ( P.335)
●When an aftermarket part is
installed in the display area of
the screen.
NOTICE
●In panoramic view/moving
view/see-through view, the sys-
tem combines images taken
from the front, back, left and
right side cameras into a single
image. There are limits to the
range and content that can be
displayed. Familiarize yourself
with the characteristics of the
panoramic view monitor system
before using it.
●Image clarity may decline at the
four corners of t he panoramic
view/moving view/see-through
view. However, this is not a mal-
function, as these are the
regions along the border of
each camera image where the
images are combined.
●Depending on lighting condi-
tions near each of the cameras,
bright and dark patches may
appear on the panoramic
view/moving view/see-through
view.
●The panoramic view/moving
view/see-through view display
does not extend higher than the
installation pos ition and image
capture range o f each camera.
●There are blind spots around
the vehicle. Accordingly, there
are regions not displayed in
panoramic view.
●Three-dimensional objects dis-
played in wide fr ont view, rear
view or side view may not be
displayed in panoramic
view/moving view/see-through
view.

*: If equipped
The system can be used only on
2WD models. The system is
activated when driving at a
speed under 62 mph (100
km/h). The AUTO LSD system

in a safe place. (There is no prob-
lem with continuing normal driving.)
The system will be automatically
restored after a short time.
AUTO LSD system*
The AUTO LSD system aids
traction by using the trac-
tion control system to con-
trol hybrid system
performance and braking
when one of the drive
wheels begins to spin. The
system should be used only
when one of the drive
wheels spinning occurs in a
ditch or rough surface.

WARNING
■To avoid an accident
●Do not use the AUTO LSD sys-
tem in conditions other than
when one of the drive wheels
spinning occurs in a ditch or
rough surface.
●Do not drive with the AUTO
LSD system continuously
turned on.
Failure to do so, a much greater
steering effort an d more careful
cornering control will be required.

unlocked: when the vehicle speed
exceeds approximately 15 mph
(25 km/h).
■When the Crawl Control sys-
tem is operated continuously
●If Crawl Control is used continu-
ously for a long time, the brake
system overheats . In this case, a
buzzer will sou nd, a message
stating a malfunction will be dis-
played on the multi-information
display, and the Crawl Control
indicator will flash and then go off.
In this event, as Crawl Control will
be temporarily inoperable, stop
the vehicle immediately in a safe
place, and allow the brake system
to cool down suffi ciently until the
message goes off. (In the mean-
time, normal driving is possible.)
●If Crawl Control is used continu-
ously for a long time, the auto-
matic transmission overheats. In
this case, a buzzer will sound, the
system will be temporarily can-
celed, and a message stating a
malfunction may be displayed on
the multi-informat ion display. In
this event, stop th e vehicle in a
safe place until the message goes
off.
■Sounds and vibrations caused
by the Crawl Control system
●A sound may be heard from the
hybrid system compartment when
the hybrid system is started or just
after the vehicle begins to move.
This sound does not indicate that
a malfunction has occurred in
Crawl Control system.
●Either of the following conditions
may occur when the Crawl Control
system is operating. None of
these are indicators that a mal-
function has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after
the vehicle comes to a stop.
■When there is a malfunction in
the system
Warning lights and/or warning mes-
