Doing so may damage the power steering motor.


●When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to avoid


damaging the wheels, underside of the vehicle, etc.


■If you get a flat tire while driving


A flat or damaged tire may cause the following situations. Hold the steering wheel firmly and gradually depress the brake pedal to slow down and stop the vehicle in a safe place. ●It may be difficult to control your vehicle. ●The vehicle will make abnormal sounds or vibrations. ●The vehicle will behave abnormally. Information on what to do in case of a flat tire (→P. 435)


■When encountering flooded roads


Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain etc. Doing so may cause the following serious damage to the vehicle: ●Engine stalling ●Short in electrical components ●Engine damage caused by water immersion In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, be sure to have your Toyota dealer check the following: ●Brake function ●Changes in quantity and quality of engine oil, and transaxle fluid etc. ●Lubricant condition for the bearings and suspension joints (where possi-


ble), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.

CAUTION


■When starting the engine


Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances. Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.


■Caution when driving


Do not turn the engine switch to the “LOCK” position while driving. If, in an emergency, you must turn the engine off while the vehicle is moving, turn the engine switch only to the “ACC” position to stop the engine. An accident may result if the engine is stopped while driving.


NOTICE


■To prevent battery discharge


Do not leave the engine switch in the “ACC” or “ON” position for long periods of time without the engine running.


■When starting the engine


●Do not crank the engine for more than 30 seconds at a time. This may


overheat the starter and wiring system.


●Do not race a cold engine. ●If the engine becomes difficult to start or stalls frequently, have the engine


checked immediately.

When stopping the engine with the shift lever in a position other than P


If the engine is stopped with the shift lever in a position other than P, the “ENGINE START STOP” switch will not be turned off but instead be turned to ACCESSORY mode. Perform the following procedure to turn the switch off: STEP 1


Check that the parking brake is set. Shift the shift lever to P. Check that the smart key system indicator light (green) flashes slowly and then press the “ENGINE START STOP” switch once. Check that the smart key system indicator light (green) is off.

If the vehicle is left in ACCESSORY mode for more than 20 minutes or IGNI- TION ON mode (the engine is not running) for more than an hour with the shift lever in P, the “ENGINE START STOP” switch will automatically turn off. However, this function cannot entirely prevent battery discharge. Do not leave the vehicle with the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCESSORY or IGNITION ON mode for long periods of time when the engine is not run- ning.

■If the engine does not start


●The engine immobilizer system may not have been deactivated. (→P. 92)


●Check that the shift lever is securely set in P. The engine may not start if the shift lever is displaced out of P.


■Steering lock


After turning the “ENGINE START STOP” switch off and opening and closing the doors, the steering wheel will be locked due to the steering lock function. Operating the “ENGINE START STOP” switch again automatically cancels the steering lock.


■When the steering lock cannot be released


The smart key system indicator light (green) will flash quickly. Check that the shift lever is set in P. Press the “ENGINE START STOP” switch while turning the steering wheel left and right.


■Steering lock motor overheating prevention


To prevent the steering lock motor from overheating, the motor may be sus- pended if the engine is turned on and off repeatedly in a short period of time. In this case, refrain from operating the engine. After about 10 seconds, the steering lock motor will resume functioning.


■When the smart key system indicator light flashes in yellow


The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.

■Operation of the “ENGINE START STOP” switch


When operating the “ENGINE START STOP” switch, one short, firm press is enough. If the switch is pressed improperly, the engine may not start or the “ENGINE START STOP” switch mode may not change. It is not necessary to press and hold the switch.


■If the smart key system has been deactivated in a customized setting


→P. 452


CAUTION


■When starting the engine


Always start the engine while sitting in the driver's seat. Do not depress the accelerator pedal while starting the engine under any circumstances. Doing so may cause an accident resulting in death or serious injury.


■Caution while driving


If engine failure occurs while the vehicle is moving, do not lock or open the doors until the vehicle reaches a safe and complete stop. Activation of the steering lock in this circumstance may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.


■Stopping the engine in an emergency


If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehicle, press and hold the “ENGINE START STOP” switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. However, do not touch the “ENGINE START STOP” switch while driving except in an emergency. Turning the engine off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the power assist to these systems will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.

NOTICE


■To prevent battery discharge


●Do not leave the “ENGINE START STOP” switch in ACCESSORY or IGNI-


TION ON mode for long periods of time without the engine running.


●If the smart key system indicator light (green) is illuminated, the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is not off. When exiting the vehicle, always check that the “ENGINE START STOP” switch is off.


●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 START STOP” 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 the engine


checked immediately.


■Symptoms indicating a malfunction with the “ENGINE START STOP”


switch If the “ENGINE START STOP” seems to be operating somewhat differently than usual, such as the switch sticking slightly, there may be a malfunction. Contact your Toyota dealer immediately.

The initial shift range in S mode is set automatically to “5” or “4” according to vehicle speed. However, the initial shift range may be set to “3” if AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever was in the D position. (→P. 157) ■ Shift ranges and their functions


● You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force. ● A lower shift range will provide greater engine braking force than


a higher shift range, and the engine speed will also increase.


■S mode


●When the shift range is “4” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets


the shift range to “6”.


●To prevent the engine from over-revving, upshifting may automatically


occur.


●To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that auto-


matically shifts to the top range when the temperature is too hot.


■AI-SHIFT


AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver perfor- mance and driving conditions. AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position. (Shifting the shift lever to the S position cancels the function.)

■When driving with cruise control activated

■Downshift restriction warning buzzer (S 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 is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)

To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-”paddle shift switch. The shift range can then be selected by operating the “-” and “+” paddle shift switches.
