Installation of a mobile twoway radio system
As the installation of a mobile two−way radio system in your vehicle
could affect electronic systems such as the multiport fuel injection
system/sequential multiport fuel injection system, cruise control sys−
tem, anti−lock brake system, SRS airbag system and seat belt preten−
sioner system, be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for
precautionary measures or special instructions regarding installation.
Unwanted noise may occur in the reception of the mobile two−way
radio.
Scrapping of your Toyota
The SRS airbag and seat belt pret ensioner devices in your Toyota
contain explosive chemic als. If the vehicle is scrapped with the air−
bags and seat belt pretensioners left
as they are, this may cause an
accident such as fire. Be sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag
and seat belt pretensioner remov
ed and disposed of by a qualified
service shop or by your Toyota dealer before you scrap your vehicle.
Perchlorate Material
Special handling may apply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate.
Your vehicle has components that may contain perchlorate. These
components may include airbag, seat
belt pretensioners, and wire−
less remote control batteries.

When driving
n“S” mode
When the shift range is “5” or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets
the shift range to “6”.
nDownshifting restrictions warning buzzer (in the “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. (The warning buzzer will
sound twice.)
nWhen driving with the cruise control system
The engine brake will not operate in
the “S” mode, even when downshifting
to “5” or “4”. (P. 178)
nSecond start mode automatic deactivation
Second start mode is automatically deactivated if the engine is turned off
after driving in second start mode.
n
If the shift lever cannot be shifted from “P”
P. 478
nIf the “S” indicator does not come on even after shifting the shift lever
to “S”
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the vehicle will operate as if the shift lever is in “D”.)
nAISHIFT
The AI−SHIFT automatically shifts the gear to the optimal position according
to the driver performance and driving conditions.
The AI−SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the “D” posi−
tion. (Shifting the shift lever to the “S” position cancels the function.)
