(k) “VSC” warning light This light warns that there is a problem somewhere in the vehicle stability control system. The light will come on when the “IG−ON” mode is enabled and will go off after the “READY” light comes on. If the light comes on while driving, the system does not work. However, as con- ventional braking operates when applied, there is no problem to continue your driv- ing. In the following cases, contact your Toyota dealer: D The warning light does not come on

after the “IG−ON” mode is enabled.

D The warning light remains on after the

“READY” light comes on.

D The warning light comes on while you

are driving.

CAUTION

If the “VSC” warning light remains on together with the red brake system warning light, immediately stop your vehicle at a safe place and contact your Toyota dealer. In this case, not only the vehicle sta- bility control system will fail but also the vehicle will become extremely un- stable during braking.

(l) Key Reminder Buzzer This buzzer acts as a reminder to remove the key if you open the driver’s door when the hybrid system is off and the key is inserted into the key slot. (m) Shift Position Reminder Buzzer This buzzer will sound if the driver’s door is opened while the hybrid transaxle is in “N”, “D” or “B”.

There may be the case that the yellow brake system, “ABS” and “VSC” warning lights stay on for about 60 seconds after the “IG−ON” mode is enabled. It is normal if they go out after a while. If any service reminder indicator or warn- ing buzzer does not function as described above, have it checked by your Toyota dealer as soon as possible.

NOTICE

Be sure to put the hybrid transaxle in “P” when parking. In “N”, the hybrid vehicle battery will not be charged even if the gasoline engine is run- ning. You cannot start your vehicle if the transaxle is left in “N” for a long time because the hybrid vehicle bat- tery will discharge.

When shifting the transaxle from “P” on the slope, a large parking lock releasing noise will be generated. However, this does not indicate a malfunction.

(g) Vehicle driving characteristics Creeping In order to hold the vehicle properly on an incline and for better accelerator pedal operation at starting, your vehicle is de- signed like a typical automatic transmis- sion vehicle which tends to move without depressing the accelerator pedal with the transaxle in a position other than “P” or “N”. With the transaxle in a position other than “P” or “N”, depress the brake pedal firmly even when stopped and apply the parking brake as required. When moving in a compact area or during it is an effective way to a traffic jam, control the brake pedal operation without depressing the ac- celerator pedal.

Vehicle stability control system The vehicle stability control system helps provide integrated control of the systems such as anti−lock brake sys- tem, brake assist system, hybrid system control, etc. This system automatically controls the brakes and hybrid system to help prevent the vehicle from skid- ding when cornering on a slippery road surface or operating steering wheel abruptly.

D Before driving, be sure the parking brake is fully released and the park- ing brake reminder light is off.

Cruise control The cruise control allows you to cruise the vehicle at a desired speed over 40
km/h (25 mph) even with your foot off the accelerator pedal. Your cruising speed can be maintained up or down grades within the limits of hybrid system performance, although a slight speed change may occur when driving up or down the grades. On steeper hills, a greater speed change will occur so it is better to drive without the cruise control.

CAUTION

D To help maintain maximum control of your vehicle, do not use the cruise control when driving in heavy or varying traffic, or on slip- pery (rainy, icy or snow–covered) or winding roads.

If

D Avoid vehicle speed increases when driving downhill. the vehicle speed is too fast in relation to the cruise control set speed, cancel the cruise control then shift the shift lever to “B” position to use engine braking to slow down.

TURNING THE SYSTEM ON To operate the cruise control, push the “ON·OFF” switch. This turns the system on. The indicator light in the instrument panel shows that you can now set the vehicle at a desired cruising speed. Anoth- er push on the switch will turn the system completely off.

CAUTION

To avoid accidental cruise control en- gagement, keep the “ON·OFF” switch off when not using the cruise control.

SETTING AT A DESIRED SPEED The transaxle must be in “D” before you set the cruise control speed. Bring your vehicle to the desired speed, push the lever down in the “– SET” direc- tion and release it. This sets the vehicle at that speed. If the speed is not satisfactory, tap the lever up for a faster speed, or tap it down for a slower speed. Each tap changes the set speed by 1.6 km/h (1.0 mph). You can now the accelerator pedal.

foot off

If you need acceleration—for example, when passing—depress the accelerator pedal enough for the vehicle to exceed the set speed. When you release it, the vehicle will return to the speed set prior to the acceleration. CANCELLING THE PRESET SPEED You can cancel the preset speed by: in a. Pulling

the

the

“CANCEL” direction and releasing it.

b. Depressing the brake pedal. If the vehicle speed falls below about 40
km/h (25 mph), the preset speed will auto- matically cancel out. If the vehicle speed drops 16 km/h (10
mph) below the preset speed, the preset speed will also automatically cancel out. If the preset speed automatically cancels out other than for the above cases, have your vehicle checked by your Toyota deal- er at the earliest opportunity.

143

RESETTING TO A FASTER SPEED Push the lever up in the “+ RES” direction and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held up, the vehicle will gradually gain speed. However, a faster way to reset is to ac- celerate the vehicle and then push the control lever down in the “– SET” direc- tion. RESETTING TO A SLOWER SPEED Push the lever down in the “– SET” direc- tion and hold it. Release the lever when the desired speed is attained. While the lever is held down, the vehicle speed will gradually decrease. However, a faster way to reset is to de- press the brake pedal and then push the control lever down in the “– SET” direc- tion.

treble, mid−range, and bass

How good an audio program sounds to you is largely determined by the mix of the levels. In fact, different kinds of music and vocal programs usually sound better with differ- ent mixes of treble, mid−range and bass. A good balance of the left and right stereo channels and of the front and rear sound levels is also important. Keep in mind that if you are listening to a stereo recording or broadcast, changing the right/left balance will increase the vol- ume of one group of sounds while de- creasing the volume of another.
