●When battery-saving mode is set, bat-
tery depletion is minimized by stop- ping the electronic key from receiving radio waves.
Press twice while pressing and
holding .
Confirm that the electronic key indicator
flashes 4 times.
While the battery-saving mode is set,
the smart entry & start system cannot be
used. To cancel the function, press any
of the electronic key buttons.
●Electronic keys that will not be used for long periods of time can be set to
the battery-saving mode in advance.
■Conditions affecting operation
The smart entry & start system uses
weak radio waves. In the following situa- tions, the communication between the electronic key and the vehicle may be
affected, preventing the smart entry & start system, wireless remote control and immobilizer system from operating
properly.
●When the electronic key battery is
depleted
●Near a TV tower, electric power plant,
gas station, radio station, large dis- play, airport or other facility that gen-erates strong radio waves or electrical
noise
●When the electronic key is in contact
with, or is covered by the following metallic objects• Cards to which aluminum foil is
attached
• Cigarette boxes that have aluminum
foil inside • Metallic wallets or bags•Coins
• Hand warmers made of metal • Media such as CDs and DVDs
●When other wireless key (that emits radio waves) is being used nearby
●When carrying the electronic key together with the following devices that emit radio waves
• Portable radio, cellular phone, cord- less phone or other wireless commu-nication devices
• Another vehicle’s electronic key or a wireless key that emits radio waves• Personal computers or personal digi-
tal assistants (PDAs) • Digital audio players• Portable game systems
●If window tint with a metallic content or metallic objects are attached to the
rear window
●When the electronic key is placed
near a battery charger or electronic devices
●When the vehicle is parked in a pay parking spot where radio waves are emitted.
If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked using the smart entry & start system, lock/unlock the doors by performing any
of the following:
●Bring the electronic key close to either
front door handle and operate the entry function.
●Operate the wireless remote control. If the doors cannot be locked/unlocked using the above methods, use the

3065-1. Before driving
NOTICE
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is
flooded, be sure to have any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-rized repairer, or any reliable repairer
check the following:
●Brake function
●Changes in quantity and quality of oil and fluid used for the engine, hybrid transaxle (front and rear),
etc.
●Lubricant condition for the bearings
and suspension joints (where possi- ble), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.
■When parking the vehicle
Always set the parking brake, and
shift the shift lever to P. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly
if the accelerator pedal is accidentally depressed.
Cargo and luggage
Take notice of the following
information about storage pre-
cautions, cargo capacity and
load.
WARNING
■Things that must not be carried in the luggage compartment
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the luggage compartment:
●Receptacles containing gasoline
●Aerosol cans
■Storage precautions
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may prevent the ped-
als from being depressed properly, may block the driver’s vision, or may result in items hitting the driver or
passengers, possibly causing an acci- dent.
●Stow cargo and luggage in the lug-
gage compartment whenever pos- sible.
●Do not stack anything in the lug-gage compartment higher than the seatbacks.
●When you fold down the rear seats, long items should not be placed
directly behind the front seats.
●Never allow anyone to ride in the
luggage compartment. It is not designed for passengers. They should ride in their seats with their
seat belts properly fastened. Other- wise, they are much more likely to suffer death or serious bodily injury,
in the event of sudden braking, sud- den swerving or an accident.

*: If equipped
LTA (Lane Tracing
Assist)
*
When driving on highways and
freeways with white (yellow)
lane lines, this function alerts
the driver when the vehicle
might depart from its lane or
course
* and provides assis-
tance by operating the steering
wheel to keep the vehicle in its
lane or course
*. Furthermore,
the system provides steering
assistance when dynamic
radar cruise control with full-
speed range is operating to
keep the vehicle in its lane.
The LTA system recognizes
white (yellow) lane lines or a
course
* using the front cam-
era. Additionally, it detects pre-
ceding vehicles using the front
camera and radar.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass,
soil, or a curb

operate the steering wheel to move the
vehicle back to the center of the lane.
Vehicles with BSM: When the system
determines that the vehicle might
depart from its lane and that the possi-
bility of a collision with an overtaking
vehicle in the adjacent lane is high, the
lane departure alert will operate even if
the turn signals are operating.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■Steering assist function
When the system determines that
the vehicle might depart from its
lane or course
*, the system pro-
vides assistance as necessary by
operating the steering wheel in
small amounts for a short period of
time to keep the vehicle in its lane.
If the system detects that the steering
wheel has not been operated for a fixed
amount of time or the steering wheel is not being firmly gripped, a warning is
displayed on the multi-information dis-
play and the function is temporarily
canceled.
Vehicles with BSM: When the system
determines that the vehicle might
depart from its lane and that the possi-
bility of a collision with an overtaking
vehicle in the adjacent lane is high, the
steering assist function will operate
even if the turn signals are operating.
*: Boundary between asphalt and the
side of the road, such as grass, soil,
or a curb
■Vehicle sway warning function
When the vehicle is swaying within
a lane, the warning buzzer will
sound and a message will be dis-
played on the multi-information dis-
play to alert the driver.
