1-4. Hybrid system
motor) drives the vehicle. At slow
speeds or when traveling down a
gentle slope, the engine is stopped*
and the electric motor (traction
motor) is used.
When the shift lever is in N, the
hybrid battery (traction battery) is
not being charged.
*: When the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) requires charging or the engine
is warming up, etc., the gasoline
engine will not automatically stop.
( P. 7 6 )
■During normal driving
The gasoline engine is predomi-
nantly used. The electric motor
(traction motor) charges the hybrid
battery (traction battery) as neces-
sary.
■When accelerating sharply
When the accelerator pedal is
depressed heavily, the power of the
hybrid battery (traction battery) is
added to that of the gasoline engine
via the electric motor (traction
motor).
■When braking (regenerative
braking)
The wheels operate the electric
motor (traction motor) as a power
generator, and the hybrid battery
(traction battery) is charged.
■Regenerative braking
●In the following situations, kinetic
energy is converted to electric energy and deceleration force can be obtained in conjunction with the
recharging of the hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery). • The accelerator pedal is released while driving with the shift lever in D or
B. • The brake pedal is depressed while driving with the shift lever in D or B.
●Vehicles with GPF system: While the GPF system ( P.335) is operating to
regenerate the exhaust gas filter, the hybrid battery (traction battery) may not be recharged.
■EV indicator
The EV indicator comes on when the vehicle is driven using only the electric motor (traction motor) or the gasoline
engine is stopped.
■Conditions in which the gasoline
engine may not stop
The gasoline engine starts and stops automatically. However, it may not stop
automatically in the following conditions:
●During gasoline engine warm-up
●During hybrid battery (traction battery) charging
●When the temperature of the hybrid battery (traction battery) is high or low
●When the heater is switched on
Depending on the circumstances, the
gasoline engine may also not stop auto- matically in other situations.
■Charging the hybrid battery (trac-tion battery)
As the gasoline engine charges the hybrid battery (traction battery), the bat-tery does not need to be charged from
an outside source. However, if the vehi- cle is left parked for a long time the hybrid battery (traction battery) will

WARNING
●Make sure to use only standard sized tires, such as those that were
installed to the vehicle when it was shipped from the factory. Other-wise, the Advanced Park may not
operate properly. Also, when the tires have been replaced, the dis-played position of the lines or box
displayed on the screen may become incorrect. When replacing the tires, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●As Advanced Park is designed to assist in parking the vehicle in a set parking space, depending on the
condition of the road surface or the vehicle, the distance between the vehicle and a parking space, etc., it
may not be possible to detect a parking space or may not be able to provide assistance to the point the
vehicle is fully parked.
●In situations such as the following, it
may not be possible for the Advanced Park to provide assis-tance to the selected parking spot:
• When the tires are extremely worn or the tire inflation pressure is low
• When carrying a heavy load
• When the vehicle is tilted due to the carried load
• When a heater is installed in the surface of the parking space (road surface freeze prevention heater)
• When the wheels are misaligned, such after a wheels has been sub-
jected to a strong impact
If the vehicle deviates greatly from the
set parking space in any situation
other than the above, have the vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

4-6. Driving tips
a traffic jam, gently release the
brake pedal to allow the vehicle to
move forward slightly while avoid-
ing overuse of the accelerator
pedal. Doing so can help control
excessive gasoline consumption.
Control and maintain the vehicle at
a constant speed. Before stopping
at a toll booth or similar, allow
plenty of time to release the accel-
erator and gently apply the brakes.
A greater amount of electrical
energy can be regenerated when
slowing down.
Use the air conditioning only when
necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive gasoline con-
sumption.
In summer: When the ambient tem-
perature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to
reduce the burden on the air condi-
tioning system and reduce fuel con-
sumption as well.
In winter: Because the gasoline
engine will not automatically cut out
until it and the interior of the vehicle
are warm, it will consume fuel. Also,
fuel consumption can be improved
by avoiding overuse of the heater.
Make sure to check the tire inflation
pressure frequently. Improper tire
inflation pressure can cause poor
fuel economy.
Also, as snow tires can cause large
amounts of friction, their use on dry
roads can lead to poor fuel econ-
omy. Use tires that are appropriate
for the season.
Carrying heavy luggage will lead to
poor fuel economy. Avoid carrying
unnecessary luggage. Installing a
large roof rack will also cause poor
fuel economy.
Since the gasoline engine starts up
and cuts out automatically when
cold, warming up the engine is
unnecessary. Moreover, frequently
driving short distances will cause
the engine to repeatedly warm up,
which can lead to excess fuel con-
sumption.

6-1. Maintenance and care
Remove dirt using a water-
dampened soft cloth or synthetic
chamois.
 Wipe the surface with a dry, soft
cloth to remove any remaining
moisture.
■Cleaning the areas with satin-finish
metal accents
The metal areas use a layer of real metal for the surface. It is necessary to
clean them regularly. If dirty areas are left uncleaned for long periods of time, they may be difficult to clean.
 Remove dirt and dust using a
vacuum cleaner.
 Wipe off any excess dirt and dust
with a soft cloth dampened with
diluted detergent.
Use a diluted water solution of approxi-
mately 5% neutral wool detergent.
 Wring out any excess water from
NOTICE
• Seats: Alkaline or acidic solutions, such as thinner, benzene, and alco-
hol
●Do not use a polish wax or polish
cleaner. The instrument panel’s or other interior part’s painted surface may be damaged.
■Preventing damage to leather surfaces
Observe the following precautions to avoid damage to and deterioration of leather surfaces:
●Remove any dust or dirt from leather surfaces immediately.
●Do not expose the vehicle to direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Park the vehicle in the shade,
especially during summer.
●Do not place items made of vinyl,
plastic, or containing wax on the upholstery, as they may stick to the leather surface if the vehicle interior
heats up significantly.
■Water on the floor
Do not wash the vehicle floor with water.Vehicle systems such as the audio
system may be damaged if water comes into contact with electrical components such as the audio sys-
tem above or under the floor of the vehicle. Water may also cause the body to rust.
■When cleaning the inside of the windshield (vehicles with Toyota
Safety Sense)
Do not allow glass cleaner to contact the lens. Also, do not touch the lens.
( P.226)
■Cleaning the inside of the rear window
●Do not use glass cleaner to clean
the rear window, as this may cause damage to the rear window defog-ger heater wires or antenna. Use a
cloth dampened with lukewarm water to gently wipe the window clean. Wipe the window in strokes
running parallel to the heater wires or antenna.
●Be careful not to scratch or damage the heater wires or antenna.
