When Driving
■Push Button Start Positions
●The engine starts by pressing the push button start while depressing the
clutch pedal (manual transaxle) or the brake pedal (automatic transaxle). To
switch the ignition position, press the push button start without depressing
the pedal.
● Do not leave the ignition switched ON while the engine is not running. Doing
so could result in the battery going dead. If the ignition is left in ACC (For
automatic transaxle, the selector lever is in the P position, and the ignition is
in ACC), the ignition switches off automatically after about 25 minutes.
■ ACC (Accessory)
The keyless entry system does not function while the push button start has
been pressed to ACC, and the doors will not lock/unlock even if they have
been locked manually.
■ ON
When the push button start is pressed to ON, the sound of the fuel pump
motor operating near the fuel tank can be heard. This does not indicate an
abnormality.
WARNING
■Before leaving the driver’s seat, set the parking brake, make sure the
selector lever is in 1st gear or R (manual transaxle) or in P (automatic
transaxle), and always switch the ignition off
Leaving the driver’s seat without setting the parking brake, shifting the
selector lever to 1st gear or R (manual transaxle) or to P (automatic tran-
saxle), and switching the ignition off is dangerous. Unexpected vehicle
movement could occur which could result in an accident.
In addition, if your intention is to l eave the vehicle for even a short period, it
is important to switch the ignition off, as leaving it in another position will dis-
able some of the vehicle’s security systems and run the battery down.

3-1. Start/Stop Engine
●Forced engine starting method:
If the KEY warning light (red) illuminates, or the push button start indicator
light (amber) flashes, this could indicate that the engine may not start using
the usual starting method. Have your vehicle inspected at your Toyota
dealer as soon as possible. If this occurs, the engine can be force-started.

dures necessary for starting the engine such as having the key in the cabin,
and depressing the clutch pedal (manual transaxle) or the brake pedal
(automatic transaxle) are required.

nated and the push button start indicator light (amber) remains flashing.
● Automatic transaxle:
When the selector lever is in the neutral (N) position, the KEY indicator light
(green) and the push button start indicator light (green) do not illuminate.
● After pressing the push button start and before the engine starts, the opera-
tion sound of the fuel pump motor from near the fuel tank can be heard,
however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● Whether the engine is cold or warm, it should be started without the use of
the accelerator.
● If the engine does not start the first time, refer to Starting a Flooded Engine
under Emergency Starting. If the engine still does not start, have your vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer ( →P. 494).

Before using the key near people who use medical devices, ask the medical
device manufacturer or your physician if radio waves from the key will affect
the device.

light (amber) flashes, this could indicate a problem with the engine starting
system and the inability to start the engine or switch the ignition to ACC or
ON. Have your vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

Manual Transaxle Operation
The shift pattern of the transaxle
is conventional, as shown.
Depress the clutch pedal all the
way down while shifting; then
release it slowly.

Manual Transaxle Shift Pattern
Neutral position
WARNING
■ Do not use sudden engine braking on slippery road surfaces or at high
speeds
Shifting down while driving on wet, snowy, or frozen roads, or while driving
at high speeds causes sudden engine braking, which is dangerous. The
sudden change in tire speed could cause the tires to skid. This could lead to
loss of vehicle control and an accident.
■ Always leave the shift lever in 1 or R position and set the parking brake
when leaving the vehicle unattended
Otherwise the vehicle could move and cause an accident.

When Driving
The gear shift indicator supports you to obtain optimum fuel economy
and smooth driving. It displays the selected gear position in the com-
bination meter as well as notifies the driver to change to the most suit-
able gear position corresponding to the actual driving condition.
Selected gear position
Suitable gear position
The gear shift indicator turns off when the following operations are performed.
●The vehicle is stopped.
● The vehicle is put in neutral.
● The vehicle is driven in reverse.
● The clutch is not fully engaged when accelerating from a stop.
● The clutch pedal remains depressed for 2 seconds or longer while driving.
NOTICE
●Keep your foot off the clutch pedal except when shifting gears. Also, do
not use the clutch to hold the vehicle on an upgrade. Riding the clutch will
cause needless clutch wear and damage.
● Do not apply any excessive lateral force to the shift lever when changing
from 5th to 4th gear. This could lead to the accidental selection of 2nd
gear, which could result in damage to the transaxle.
● Make sure the vehicle comes to a complete stop before shifting to R. Shift-
ing to R while the vehicle is still moving may damage the transaxle.

When Driving
Hill Launch Assist (HLA)∗
For vehicles with a manual transaxle, Hill Launch Assist (HLA) oper-
ates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse (R)
position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a position
other than the reverse (R) position.
For vehicles with an automatic transaxle, Hill Launch Assist (HLA)
operates on a downward slope when the shift lever is in the reverse
(R) position, and on an upward slope when the shift lever is in a for-
ward gear.
● Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate on a gentle slope. In addition, the
gradient of the slope on which the system will operate changes depending
on the vehicle’s load.
● Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate if the parking brake is applied, the
vehicle has not stopped completely, or the clutch pedal is released.
● While Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is operating, the brake pedal may feel stiff
and vibrate, however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
● Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not operate while the TCS/DSC indicator light
is illuminated.
Refer to Warning/Indicator Lights on P. 156.
● Hill Launch Assist (HLA) does not turn off even if the DSC OFF switch is
pressed to turn off the TCS/DSC.
∗: If equipped
Hill Launch Assist (HLA) is a function which assists the driver in
accelerating from a stop while on a slope. When the driver
releases the brake pedal and depresses the accelerator pedal
while on a slope, the function prevents the vehicle from rolling.
The braking force is maintained automatically after the brake
pedal is released on a steep grade.
