zIf the gear cannot be engaged to
1st when the shift lever is shifted
from the “N” to “E” position, try to
shift the shift lever to the “N” posi-
tion once, then shift it to the “E”
position a few seconds later.
Do not operate the system in the fol-
lowing manners. A life cycle of the
clutch may be reduced. If you do
these operation, a warning buzzer will
sound.
zStopping by the accelerator pedal
operation with the shift lever in the
“E” or “M” position on an uphill.
zThe shift lever is shifted to the “E”,
“M” or “R” position while racing
the engine.
zDriving with low speed using high
gear position.
zBeing stopped a slope using the
starting assist system.
(b) Starting off on an uphill/downhill
—Uphill
1. Apply the parking brake firmly so that
the vehicle does not roll backwards.
2. Shift the shift lever to the “E” position
while holding down the brake pedal.
Make sure that the gear position indi-
cator in the instrumental cluster dis-
plays 1st gear.
3. Release the brake pedal and depress
the accelerator pedal gradually, and
when the vehicle starts to move, re-
lease the parking brake and depress
the accelerator pedal to start off.—Downhill
1. Hold down the brake pedal and shift
the shift lever to the “E” position. Make
sure that the gear is in 1st by using
the gear position indicator.
2. Release the brake pedal and depress
the accelerator pedal slowly. Even
though the accelerator pedal is not de-
pressed, the clutch will be engaged
when the vehicle speed increases.
NOTICE
On an uphill, never hold the vehicle
stop only by the accelerator pedal op-
eration or when the starting assist
system is being activated. Otherwise
the warning buzzer (pulse sound) will
sound and the clutch may be dam-
aged. In such a case, pull over and
shift the shift lever to the “N” posi-
tion. Wait for around 15 minutes to
cool the clutch before starting again.
(c) Using engine braking
When driving on a downhill slope, down-
shifting and the use of the engine brake
is recommended.
By placing the shift lever to “M” position,
the Manual (M) mode is selected, and the
gear can be down shifted manually.
When the outside air temperature is ex-
tremely low, the gear may not downshift
from 2nd to 1st until the vehicle stops.
For details of shift down operation, refer
to the “—Manual (M) mode” on page 146.

NOTICE
zOn an uphill, never hold the vehicle
stop only by the accelerator pedal
operation or when the starting as-
sist system is being activated.
Otherwise the warning buzzer
(pulse sound) will sound and the
clutch may be damaged. In such a
case, pull over and shift the shift
lever to the “N” position. Wait for
around 15 minutes to cool the

zIf the shift lever is operated more
than necessary, the system may not
allow operation of the shift lever
for a certain period of time, and the
gear may not be shifted appropri-
ately. Therefore, do not operate the
shift lever if not necessary.
(f) Parking
Unlike the automatic transmission, the
multi−mode manual transmission does not
have a parking position. The vehicle can
be parked with the shift lever in any posi-
tion.
1. Apply the parking brake firmly.
2. While depressing the brake pedal, shift
the shift lever in the “R” position on a
downhill or a level surface, and “E(1)”
position on an uphill by confirming the
gear position with the gear position in-
dicator.
3. Stop the engine.

1: Uphill
2: Level or downhill
To stop the engine:
Check the transmission gear position by
the gear position indicator, then turn the
engine switch off to stop the engine. Re-
lease the brake pedal after a few sec-
onds. The shift lever will be locked in the
position just before the engine switch was
turned off.
You can check the gear position by the
gear position indicator within 5 seconds
after turning the engine switch off.
CAUTION
DIf the gear is not engaged properly
and completely before the engine
switch is turned off, the vehicle
may not be parked with the gear
engaged. Always confirm the gear
position with the gear position indi-
cator when parking.
DOn a level surface or a downhill,
the gear should be put in reverse,
and in the 1st on an uphill. Other-
wise, the vehicle may move, and
cause an unexpected accident. If
the gear is left in the “N” position,
the vehicle can not be parked with
the gear engaged.

(a) Upshift and downshift
Upshifting
Pull the shift lever to the “+” direction
and release it. Every time the lever is
operated, the transmission is upshifted
1 step in the order of 1st→2nd→
3rd→4th→5th gear.
Downshifting
Push the shift lever to the “−” direction
and release it. Every time the lever is
operated, the transmission is down-
shifted in the order of 5th→4th→
3rd→2nd→1st gear.
DTo shift down smoothly, the engine
runs fast in some cases. This is done
intentionally by the system and is not
a malfunction.
DWhen driving down a hill, downshift
and use the engine brakes appropriate-
ly. If necessary, continuous shifting
down is possible. However, if down-
shifting more than 3 steps continuously,
the gear shifting will take more time.
DWhen the outside air temperature is
extremely low, the gear may not down-
shift from 2nd to 1st until the vehicle
stops.
DWhen the gear is shifting, a noise can
be heard in some case. This is not a
malfunction.
DIn case the transmission cannot be en-
gaged to a certain gear position during
shifting due to mechanical malfunction,
the gear will not be engaged and re-
mains in neutral. The “N” in the gear
position indicator will blink and a warn-
ing buzzer (long pulse sound) will
sound until the driver shifts the shift
lever to “N” position.
Unless the system recovers from the
above−mentioned condition (mechanical
malfunction), the gear will still remain
in neutral position even shifting the
shift lever to “M” or “E” position after
the system performs a re−try shifting.
If such conditions continue, contact any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped
professional, as soon as possible to
service the vehicle.
DWhen the gear jumped out of position
while driving, the gear is shifted to
proper gear position.
NOTICE
Manual (M) mode dose not shift up
the gear even if the engine speed
reaches the rev−limit.

Traction control system
The traction control system automatical-
ly helps control the spinning of front
wheels when the vehicle is started or
accelerated on slippery road surfaces.
When the engine switch is turned to the
“ON” position, the system automatically
turns on.
CAUTION
Under certain slippery road condi-
tions, full traction of the vehicle and
power against front wheels cannot be
maintained, even though the traction
control system is in operation. Do not
drive the vehicle under any speed or
maneuvering conditions which may
cause the vehicle to lose traction
control. In situations where the road
surface is covered with ice or snow,
your vehicle should be fitted with
snow tires or tire chains. Always
drive at an appropriate and cautious
speed for the present road condi-
tions.
MS16014
Leave the system on during the ordi-
nary driving so that it can operate
when needed.
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the trac-
tion control system is in the self−check
mode, but does not indicate a malfunction.
When the traction control system isoper-
ating, the following conditions occur:
DThe system controls the spinning of the
front wheels. At this time, the slip indi-
cator light blinks.
DYou may feel vibration or noise in your
vehicle, caused by operation of the
brakes. This indicates the system is
functioning properly.
The slip indicator light comes on for a few
seconds when the engine switch is turned
to the “ON” position. If the indicator light
does not come on when the engine switch
is turned on, contact any authorized Toyo-
ta dealer or repairer, or another duly qual-
ified and equipped professional.

“VSC” warning light
This light warns that there is a problem
somewhere in the traction control system
or the vehicle stability control system.
The light will come on when the engine
switch is turned to the “ON” position and
will go off after a few seconds.
If the light comes on while driving, the
systemdoes not work. However, as con-
ventional braking operates when applied,
there is no problem to continue your driv-
ing.
In the following cases, contact any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another
duly qualified and equipped professional:
DThe warning light does not come on
after the engine switch is turned to the
“ON” position.
DThe warning light remains on after the
engine switch is turned to the “ON”
position.
DThe warning light comes on while driv-
ing.The vehicle stability controlsystem au-
tomatically controls the brakes and en-
gine to help prevent the vehicle from
skidding when cornering on a slippery
road surface or operating steering
wheel abruptly.
The vehicle stability control system is acti-
vated when the vehicle speed is more
than 15 km/h (9 mph).
You may hear a sound in the engine
compartment for a few seconds when the
engine is started or just after the vehicle
begins to move. This means that the sys-
tem is in the self−check mode but does
not indicate a malfunction.
CAUTION
DDo not rely excessively on the ve-
hicle stability controlsystem. Even
if the system is operating, you
must always drive carefully and at-
tentively. Reckless driving will re-
sult in an unexpected accident and
cause death or serious injury. If the
slip indicator light blinks, and spe-
cial care should be taken while
driving.
DOnly use tires of specified size. The
size, manufacture, brand and tread
pattern for all 4 tires should be the
same. If you use the tires other
than specified, or different type or
size, the vehicle stability control
system may not function correctly.
When replacing the tires or wheels,
contact any authorized Toyota deal-
er or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied professional. (See “Checking
and replacing tires” on page 270 in
Section 7−2.)
DIn situations where the road surface
is covered with ice or snow, your
vehicle should be fitted with snow
tire or tire chains.

ther scan the tracks on a specific disc or
scan the first tracks of all the discs in the
magazine.
Scanning the tracks on a disc:
Quickly push and release “SCAN”. “SCAN”
will appear on the display and the player
will scan all the tracks on the disc you
are listening to. If you hear a beep, you
held the button too long, and the player
will scan the first tracks of all the discs
in the magazine. To select a track, push
the “SCAN” a second time. If the player
scanned all the tracks on the disc, it will
stop scanning.
Compact disc changer only—
Scanning for the first tracks of all the
discs in the magazine:
Push and hold “SCAN” until you hear a
beep. “D−SCAN” will appear on the dis-
play and the player will perform the first
track of the next disc. To select a disc,
push the “SCAN” a second time. If the
player has scanned all the discs, it will
stop scanning.
ST (Stereo reception) display
Your radio automatically changes to stereo
reception when a stereo broadcast is re-
ceived. “ST” appears on the display. If the
signal becomes weak, the radio reduces
the amount of channel separation to prev-
ent the weak signal from creating noise.
If the signal becomes extremely weak, the
radio switches from stereo to mono recep-
tion.TA (Traffic Announcement)
This button is used for receiving TA sta-
tions all over the band.
EON (Enhanced Other Network) sys-
tem—If the RDS station (with EON data)
you are listening to is not broadcasting a
traffic information program at the TA (Traf-
fic Announcement) mode, the radio will be
switched to the traffic information program
automatically by using the EON AF list.
After the traffic information ends, the radio
will return to the initial program automati-
cally. A beep will sound to tell you when
this feature starts and ends the operation.
When receiving FM:
Push “TA” to switch the radio mode to TP
(Traffic Program). “TP” will appear on the
display.
In the TP mode, the radio will begin seek-
ing a TP station. If the radio seek out a
TP station, the program name will appear
on the display. If the TA station is re-
ceived, the radio will be switched to the
traffic information program automatically.
When the program ends, the initial opera-
tion resumes. When also in AF mode, the
radio will seek a TP station by using the
AF list.
Push “TA” once again to switch the radio
mode to TA. “TA” will appear on the dis-
play and the radio will mute the volume
of FM station.
In the TA mode, the radio will begin seek-
ing a TP station. It sounds only when a
TP station is received. When a TP station
is received, the program service name will
appear on the display. In the AF mode,
the radio will also begin seeking a TP
station by using the AF list.
While the radio is seeking a TP station,
“TP SEEK” appears on the display. If the
radio cannot seek out any TP stations,
“NOTHING” will appear on the display for
2 seconds and the radio will begin seek-
ing a TP station again.
AYGO WE 99E37E11 02.18

170AUDIO SYSTEM
If the TP signal is halted for 20 seconds
after the TP mode was set, the radio will
seek another TP station automatically.
When listening to a tape or compact disc:
Push “TA” to switch the radio mode to TA.
“TA” will appear on the display.
When the traffic information program
starts, the “CD” mode is interrupted and
the traffic information is automatically
broadcasted. When the program ends, the
initial operation resumes.
“TA” volume memory function—The volume
at receiving the traffic announcement is
memorized.
The range of volume memory is limited:
if the volume received previously is grater
than the maximum range of the volume,
this will become the maximum range and
if it is less than the minimum, this volume
will be the minimum range.
You can adjust the volume independently
from the memorized “TA” volume range
while receiving a “TA” station.
To return to the normal mode from the TA
mode, push “TA” once again.
NOTICE
To ensure correct audio system op-
erations:
zBe careful not to spill beverages
over the audio system.
zDo not put anything other than a
cassette tape or CD into the cas-
sette tape slot or CD slot.
zThe use of a cellular phone inside
or near the vehicle may cause a
noise from the speakers of the au-
dio system which you are listening
to. However, this does not indicate
a malfunction.
RADIO RECEPTION
FM broadcasts have a range of about 40
km or 25 miles. When driving away from
a station, you may have to fine−tune the
radio and turn up the volume as the sta-
tion gets weaker. Because FM uses a
line−of−sight signal, tall buildings or hills
may sometimes block reception. These
are all normal characteristics of FM recep-
tion and do not indicate any problem with
the radio itself.

: On some models
Operating tips
DTo cool off your Toyota after it has
been parked in the hot sun, drive with
the windows open for a few minutes.
This vents the hot air, allowing the air
conditioning to cool the interior more
quickly.
DMake sure the air intake grilles in front
of the windshield are not blocked (by
leaves or snow, for example).
DKeep the area under the front seats
clear to allow air to circulate through-
out the vehicle.
DOn cold days, set the fan speed to
high for a minute to help clear the
intake ducts of snow or moisture. This
can reduce the amount of fogging on
the windows.
DWith air conditioning:When driving
on dusty roads, close all windows. If
dust thrown up by the vehicle is still
drawn into the vehicle after closing the
windows, it is recommended that the
air intake selector be set to FRESH
and the fan speed selector to any set-
ting except “
”(OFF).
DWith air conditioning:If following
another vehicle on a dusty road, or
driving in windy and dusty conditions,
it is recommended that the air intake
selector be temporarily set to RECIR-
CULATE, which will close off the out-
side passage and prevent outside air
and dust from entering the vehicle inte-
rior.
DDuring use, various odors from inside
and outside the vehicle may enter into
and accumulate in the air conditioning
system. This may then causeodor to
be emitted from the vents.
DTo reduce potential odors from occur-
ring:
It is recommended that the air condi-
tioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
