NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
● Do not leave the engine switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode
for long periods of time without the engine running.
● If the smart entry & start system indicator (green) is illuminated, the engine
switch is not off. When exiting the vehicle, always check that the engine
switch is off.
● On vehicles with a Multidrive, do not stop the engine when the shift lever is
in a position other than P. If the engine is stopped in another shift lever
position, the engine switch will not be turned off but instead be turned to
ACCESSORY mode. If the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY mode, battery
discharge may occur.
■ When starting the engine
● Do not race a cold engine.
● If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have your vehi-
cle checked by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional immediately.
■ Symptoms indicating a malfunction with the engine switch
If the engine switch seems to be operating somewhat differently than usual,
such as the switch sticking slightly, there may be a malfunction.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional immediately.

■ When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
● The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is
stopped.
● After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
● When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
 P. 477
■ If the “M” indicator flashes or a buzzer beeps after shifting the shift lever
to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the Multidrive system. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)
■ Downshift restriction warning buzzer (vehicles with a 7-speed sport
sequential shiftmatic mode)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A
buzzer will sound twice.)
WARNING
■ When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift gears suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine braking may cause the vehicle to spin or skid,
resulting in an accident.

NOTICE
■Front sensor
Observe the following to ensure that the sensor operates correctly:
● Do not attach window tinting to the windshield.
● On cold days when there is a large temperature difference between the
vehicle interior and outside air temperatures, the windshield fogs up easily.
If the part of the windshield in front of the front sensor becomes fogged up
or covered with condensation or ice, the system temporarily stops working
and the PCS warning light flashes. In that case, use the front defroster to
remove the fog, condensation, or ice. ( P. 308, 317)
● Keep the windshield clean at all times. Also, even when using a glass
coating agent, if water droplets and so forth form on the windshield, use
the wipers to remove them.
The pre-crash safety system may not function properly if the windshield is
dirty or covered with an oily film, water droplets, snow, etc.
If the inner side of the windshield where the front sensor is installed is dirty,
do not attempt to remove the front sensor. Contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another dul y qualified and equipped professional.
●Do not attach objects, such as stickers,
transparent stickers, etc., and so forth,
to the outer side of the windshield in
front of the front sensor (shaded area in
the illustration) or use a glass coating
agent.
A: From the top of the windshield to
approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) below
the bottom of the front sensor
B: Approximately 20 cm (7.9 in.)
(Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) to the
right and left from the center of the
front sensor)
● Do not install or attach anything to the
inner side of the windshield under the
front sensor (shaded area in the illustra-
tion).
A: Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) (Start-
ing from the bottom of the front sen-
sor)
B: Approximately 20 cm (7.9 in.)
(Approximately 10 cm (4.0 in.) to the
right and left from the center of the
front sensor)

■Operational conditions
The pre-crash safety system is enabled and determines that the possibility of
a frontal collision with a vehicle (e xcept motorcycles and bicycles) is high.
● Pre-crash warning:
• Vehicle speed is approximately 15 to 140 km/h (10 to 86 mph).
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is greater
than approximately 15 km/h (10 mph).
● Pre-crash brake assist:
• Vehicle speed is approximately 30 to 80 km/h (19 to 49 mph).
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is greater
than approximately 30 km/h (19 mph).
● Pre-crash braking:
• Vehicle speed is approximately 10 to 80 km/h (7 to 49 mph).
• The relative speed between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is greater
than approximately 10 km/h (7 mph).
When the brake pedal is stepped on, the system judges if evasion actions are
being done by the driver and the start timing for pre-crash braking may be
delayed.
During the following, the driver operations takes precedence and the system
may not operate:
● The accelerator pedal is depressed strongly
● The steering wheel is turned sharply or abruptly
In case of the following, the system will not operate:
● If a battery terminal has been disconnected and reconnected and then the
vehicle has not been driven for a certain amount of time
● If VSC is disabled (only the pre-crash warning function will be operational)
● If the PCS warning light is flashing or illuminated
● When the shift position is in R
■ Cancelation of the pre-crash braking
● If either of the following situations occur while the pre-crash braking function
is operating, it will be canceled:
• The accelerator pedal is depressed strongly.
• The steering wheel is turned sharply or abruptly.
● If the vehicle is stopped by the operation of the pre-crash braking function,
the operation of the pre-crash braking function will be canceled after the
vehicle has been stopped for approximately 2 seconds.

Pulling the lever toward you
cancels the speed limiter.
Pushing the lever up resumes
the speed limiter.
■ Exceeding the set speed
In the following situation, the vehicle speed exceeds the set speed and multi-
information display characters will flash:
■ Automatic speed limiter cancelation
The set speed is automatically canceled when the cruise control is activated.
■ If the speed limiter indicator comes on in yellow
Stop the engine and then restart the engine. After restarting the engine, set
the speed limiter. If the speed limiter cannot be set, there may be a malfunc-
tion in the speed limiter. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
