NOTICE
Be sure to put the hybrid transaxle in “P” when parking. In “N”, the hybrid battery will not be charged even if the gasoline engine is running. You can- not start your vehicle if the transaxle is left in “N” for a long time because the hybrid battery 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. Regenerative brake When the accelerator pedal is released or the brake pedal is depressed, the electric motor acts as a generator and converts kinetic energy to electric energy to provide deceleration and recover electric energy to charge the hybrid battery. At noise may increase.

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. The vehicle stability control system is acti- vated when is more than about 15 km/h (9 mph).

CAUTION
D Do not rely exclusively on the ve- hicle stability control system. Even if the vehicle stability control sys- tem is operating, you must always drive carefully and attentively to avoid death or serious injury. Reck- less driving will result in an unex- pected accident. If the slip indicator light flashes, sounding an alarm, special care should be taken while driving.
D Only use tires of specified size. The size, manufacturer, brand and tread pattern for all 4 tires should be the same. If you use tires other than specified, or mixed types or size, the vehicle stability control system may not function correctly.

light comes on even after tire inflation pressure adjustment, it is probable that you have a flat tire. Check the tires. If the tire is flat, change to the spare tire and have the flat tire repaired by the nearest Toyota deal- er.
CAUTION
Each tire, including the spare (if pro- vided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load information label). (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label (tire and load information label), you should determine the proper tire infla- tion pressure for those tires.)
D Avoid abrupt maneuvering and bra- king. If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you could lose control of the steer- ing wheel or the brakes.
The tire pressure warning light may turn on due to natural causes such as natural air leaks or tire inflation pressure changes caused by temperature. In this case, ad- justing the tire inflation pressure will turn off the light after a few minutes. Pushing the tire pressure warning reset switch should not turn off the tire pressure warning light. Adjusting the tire inflation pressure will turn off the light. The compact spare tire is not equipped with the tire pressure warning valve and transmitter. If a tire goes flat, the warning light will not turn off even though the flat tire is replaced with the spare tire. Re- place the spare tire with the repaired tire and adjust the proper tire inflation pressur- e. The tire pressure warning light will turn off after a few minutes.

As an added safety feature, your ve- hicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS– tire pressure warning system) that il- luminates a low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light) when one or more of your tires is significantly under−inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale (tire pres- sure warning illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a sig- nificantly under−inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under−inflation also re- duces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s han- dling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS (tire pres- sure warning system) is not a substi- tute for proper tire maintenance, and it to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under−inflation has not reached the level illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale (tire pressure warning light).
