■Daytime running light system (if equipped)
●Vehicles with reflector type headlights: To make your vehicle more visible to
other drivers during daytime driving, the daytime running lights turn on auto-
matically whenever the engine is started and the parking brake is released
with the headlight switch off or in the position. (Illuminate dimmer
than the headlights.) Daytime running lights are not designed for use at
night.
For type C of this headlight, daytime running lights can be turned off by
operating the switch.
Vehicles with projector type headlights: To make your vehicle more visible
to other drivers during daytime driving, the daytime running lights turn on
automatically whenever the engine is started and the parking brake is
released with the headlight switch off or in the position. Daytime run-
ning lights are not designed for use at night.
For type C of this headlight, daytime running lights can be turned off by
operating the switch.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve
fuel economy.

NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the engine is not
running.

1824-5. Toyota Safety Sense C
WARNING
■Before using the LDA system
Do not rely solely on the LDA system. The LDA system does not drive the
vehicle automatically, nor does it reduce the amount of care you need to
take. As such, the driver must always assume full responsibility for under-
standing his/her surroundings, for operating the steering wheel to correct
the driving line, and for driving safely.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an accident.
■ To avoid operating the LDA by mistake
Switch the LDA system off using the LDA switch when not in use.
NOTICE
■To prevent damage to or incorr ect operation of the LDA system
● Do not modify the headlights or attach stickers to the surface of the lights.
● Do not modify the suspension. If your suspension needs repairs, contact
your Toyota dealer.
● Do not install or place anything on the hood or the grille. Also, do not install
a grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar etc.).

• Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lights
or fog lights.
• Vehicles ahead have headlights or tail lights that are either switched off, dirty, are changing color, or are not aimed properly.
• When driving through an area of in termittently changing brightness and
darkness.

3287-2. Steps to take in an emergency
Start the engine of the second vehicle. Increase the engine speed
slightly and maintain at that level for approximately 5 minutes to
recharge the batter y of your vehicle.
Maintain the engine speed of t he second vehicle and start the
engine of your vehicle.
Once the vehicle’s engine has star ted, remove the jumper cables in
the exact reverse order from which they were connected.
Once the engine starts, have the v ehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible.
■ Starting the engine when the batt ery is discharged (vehicles with an
automatic transmission)
The engine cannot be started by push-starting.
■ To prevent battery discharge
●Turn off the headlights and the audio system while the engine is not running.
● Turn off any unnecessary electrical components when the vehicle is running
at a low speed for an extended period, such as in heavy traffic.
■ Charging the battery
The electricity stored in the battery will discharge gradually even when the
vehicle is not in use, due to natural discharge and the draining effects of cer-
tain electrical appliances. If the vehicle is left for a long time, the battery may
discharge, and the engine may be unable to start. (The battery recharges
automatically during driving.)
