WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury.
■Opening and closing the elec-tronic sunshade
●Check to make sure that all passen-
gers do not have any part of their body in a position where it could be caught when the electronic sun-
shade is being operated.
●Do not let a child operate the elec-
tronic sunshade. Closing the elec- tronic sunshade on someone can cause death or serious injury.

5 5-1. Before driving
Driving
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining,
because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and
the road could be slippery.
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain,
as the road surface could be espe-
cially slippery.
●Refrain 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.
■ECO Accelerator Guidance
(P.182)
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.
●When 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.
●When 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.
●When stopping: When stopping the
vehicle, early releasing the accelera-
tor pedal will cause the “Stop” score to
increase.
■Restraining the hybrid system out-
put (Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake ped-
als are depressed at the same time,
the hybrid system output may be
restrained.
●A warning message is displayed on
the multi-information display and head-up display (if equipped) while
the system is operating. (P.574)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-
Start Control)
●When the following unusual operation
is performed, the hybrid system output
may be restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted from R
to D, D to R, N to R, P to D
*, or P to R*
(D includes S) with the accelerator
pedal depressed, a warning message
appears on the multi-information dis-
play and head-up display (if
equipped). If a warning message is
shown on the multi-information dis-
play, read the message and follow the
instructions.
• When the accelerator pedal is
depressed too much while the vehicle
is in reverse.
*: Depending on the situation, the shift
lever may not be changed.
●While Drive-Start Control is being acti-
vated, your vehicle may have trouble
escaping from the mud or fresh snow.
In such case, deactivate TRC
(P.439) to cancel Drive-Start Con-
trol so that the vehicle may be able to
escape from the mud or fresh snow.
●Drive-Start Control does not work
when Trail Mode is turned on.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ-
ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (200 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
●For 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.

low, such as during winter driving
conditions
●When 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.

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.
■Sounds and vibrations specific to a

Driving
■S mode
●You can choose from 6 levels of accelerating force and engine braking force.
●A lower shift range will provide greater accelerating force and engine braking
force than a higher shift range, and the engine revolutions will also increase.
●To prevent the engine from over-rev-ving, upshifting may automatically
occur when the shift range is 3 or lower.
●When the shift range is 4 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the shift range to 6.

3545-5. 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 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.
• 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 vehicle, such as when
driving in the dark, snow, or fog, or when bright lights are shining into the front
camera
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.
