Daytime running light system
To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the daytime run-
ning lights turn on automatically whenever the hybrid system is
started. (However, the daytime running light system will be canceled
when the headlight switch is operated manually or the automatic
headlight system turns on the tail lights.) Daytime running lights are
not designed for use at night.
Deactivating/reactivating the daytime running light system
Follow the procedure below.
Turn the “POWER” switch, headlights, tail lights and auto-
matic headlight system off and set the parking brake.
Start the hybrid system.
You must perform step 3 within 5 seconds of starting the hybrid sys-
tem.
Push the headlight switch for-
ward and pull it back to the cen-
ter position. (Repeat this
operation 3 times or more.)
A buzzer will sound to indicate that the daytime running light system
has been deactivated/reactivated.
If any of the following occurs during the deactivation/reactivation opera-
tion, the deactivation/reactivation operation will be canceled:
• The hybrid system is turned off.
• The parking brake is released.
• The vehicle is moving.
• The headlights are turned on.
• The tail lights are turned on.
• The automatic headlight system is turned on.

Hill-start assist control
Hill-start assist control operating conditions
The system operates in the following situations:
• The shift position is other than P.
• The parking brake is not applied.
• The accelerator pedal is not depressed.
Hill-start assist control
While hill-start assist control is operating, the brakes remain automati-
cally applied after the driver releases the brake pedal. The stop lights and
the high mounted stoplight turn on.
Hill-start assist control operates for about 2 seconds after the brake pedal
is released.
If the slip indicator does not flash and the buzzer does not sound when
the brake pedal is further depressed, slightly reduce the pressure on the
brake pedal (do not allow the vehicle to roll backward) and then firmly
depress it again. If the system still does not operate, check that the oper-
ating conditions explained above have been met.
Hill-start assist control helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when starting on incline or slippery slope.
To engage hill-start assist con-
trol, further depress the brake
pedal when the vehicle is
stopped completely.
A buzzer will sound once to
indicate the system is acti-
vated. The slip indicator will
also start flashing.

Hill-start assist control buzzer
When hill-start assist control is activated, the buzzer will sound once.
In the following situations, hill-start assist control will be canceled and a
buzzer will sound twice.
• No attempt is made to drive the vehicle within approximately 2 seconds
of releasing the brake pedal.
• The P position switch is pushed.
• The parking brake is applied.
• The brake pedal is depressed again.
• The brake pedal has been depressed for more than approximately 3
minutes.
If the slip indicator stays on...
It may indicate a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Toyota
dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
CAUTION
Hill-start assist control
Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start assist control may
not operate effectively on extremely steep inclines or roads covered in ice.
Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold the
vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use
hill-start assist control to hold the vehicle on an incline for an extended
period of time, as doing so may lead to an accident.

When driving the vehicle
Accelerate the vehicle slowly and drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.
When parking the vehicle
Park the vehicle and push the P position switch without setting
the parking brake. The parking brake may freeze up, preventing
it from being released. If necessary, block the wheels to prevent
inadvertent sliding or creeping.

CAUTION
When raising your vehicle
Make sure to observe the following to reduce the possibility of death or seri-
ous injury.
When using a floor jack, follow the instructions of the manual provided with
the jack.
Do not use the jack that was supplied with your vehicle.
Do not put any part of your body or get underneath the vehicle supported
only by the floor jack.
Always use floor jack and/or automotive jack stands on a solid, flat, level
surface.
Do not start the hybrid system while the vehicle is supported by the floor
jack.
Stop the vehicle on level, firm ground, firmly set the parking brake and
push the P position switch.
Make sure to set the floor jack properly at the jack point.
Raising the vehicle with an improperly positioned floor jack will damage
the vehicle and may cause the vehicle to fall off the floor jack.
Do not raise the vehicle while someone is in the vehicle.
When raising the vehicle, do not place any objects on top of or underneath
the floor jack.
Lift up the vehicle using a floor jack
such as the one shown in the illustra-
tion.
