Driving
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining,
because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and
the road could be slippery.
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain,
as the road surface could be espe-
cially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driv-
ing on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water
between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and
brakes from operating properly.
■ECO Accelerator Guidance
(P.182)
It is easier to drive in an Eco-friendly
manner by driving while referring to the
ECO Accelerator Guidance display.
Also, by using the ECO Accelerator
Guidance it is easier to increase the
“Eco Score” evaluation.
●When starting off: While staying within
the ECO Accelerator Guidance range,
gradually depress the accelerator
pedal and accelerate to the desired
speed. If excessive acceleration is
avoided, the “Start” score will
increase.
●When driving: After accelerating to the
desired speed, release the accelera-
tor pedal and drive at a stable speed
within the ECO Accelerator Guidance
range. By keeping the vehicle within
the ECO Accelerator Guidance range,
the “Cruise” score will increase.
●When stopping: When stopping the
vehicle, early releasing the accelera-
tor pedal will cause the “Stop” score to
increase.
■Restraining the hybrid system out-
put (Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake ped-
als are depressed at the same time,
the hybrid system output may be
restrained.
●A warning message is displayed on
the multi-information display and head-up display (if equipped) while
the system is operating. (P.574)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-
Start Control)
●When the following unusual operation
is performed, the hybrid system output
may be restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted from R
to D, D to R, N to R, P to D
*, or P to R*
(D includes S) with the accelerator
pedal depressed, a warning message
appears on the multi-information dis-
play and head-up display (if
equipped). If a warning message is
shown on the multi-information dis-
play, read the message and follow the
instructions.
• When the accelerator pedal is
depressed too much while the vehicle
is in reverse.
*: Depending on the situation, the shift
lever may not be changed.
●While Drive-Start Control is being acti-
vated, your vehicle may have trouble
escaping from the mud or fresh snow.
In such case, deactivate TRC
(P.439) to cancel Drive-Start Con-
trol so that the vehicle may be able to
escape from the mud or fresh snow.
●Drive-Start Control does not work
when Trail Mode is turned on.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ-
ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (200 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
●For the first 1000 km (600 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high
speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low
gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for
extended periods.

3025-1. Before driving
■Operating your vehicle in a foreign
country
Comply with the relevant vehicle regis- tration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( P.620)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY” indicator is illuminated. This
prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel- erator pedal instead of the brake
pedal will result in sudden accelera- tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to a diffi- culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the vehicle only slightly. This allows
you to depress the brake and accel- erator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your
right foot. Depressing the brake pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-
ing in an accident.
●The driver should pay extra atten- tion to pedestrians when the vehicle is powered only by the electric
motor (traction motor). As there is no engine noise, the pedestrians may misjudge the vehicle’s move-
ment. Even though the vehicle is equipped with the Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System, drive with care as
pedestrians in the vicinity may still not notice the vehicle if the sur-rounding area is noisy.
●Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable
materials such as leaves, paper or rags.The exhaust system and exhaust
gases can be extremely hot. These hot parts may cause a fire if there is any flammable material nearby.
●During normal driving, do not turn off the hybrid system. Turning the
hybrid system off while driving will not cause loss of steering or brak-ing control, however, power assist
to the steering will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over
and stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so. In the event of an emergency, such
as if it becomes impossible to stop the vehicle in the normal way:  P.560
●Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving
down a steep hill. Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and
lose effectiveness. ( P.321)
●Do not adjust the position of the
steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.

Your vehicle will handle differently
when towing a trailer. In order to
avoid accident, death or serious
injury, keep the following in mind
when towing:
■Checking connections
between trailer and lights
Stop the vehicle and check the
operation of the connection
between the trailer and lights after
driving for a brief period as well as
before starting off.
■Practicing driving with a cou-
pled trailer
 Get the feel for turning, stopping
and reversing with the trailer
coupled by practicing in an area
with no or light traffic.
 When reversing with a coupled
trailer, hold the section of the
steering wheel nearest to you
and rotate clockwise to turn the
trailer left or counterclockwise to
turn it right. Always rotate a little
at a time to prevent steering
error. Have someone guide you
when reversing to lessen the risk
of an accident.
■Increasing vehicle-to-vehicle
distance
At a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph), the
distance to the vehicle running
ahead of you should be equivalent
to or greater than the combined
length of your vehicle and trailer.
Avoid sudden braking that may
cause skidding. Otherwise, the
vehicle may spin out of control. This
is especially true when driving on
wet or slippery road surfaces.

NOTICE
■When the rear bumper strength-
ening material is aluminum
Ensure the steel bracket part does not come directly in contact with that
area.
When steel and aluminum come into contact, there is a reaction similar to
corrosion, which will weaken the sec- tion concerned and may result in damage. Apply a rust inhibitor to parts
that will come in contact when attach- ing a steel bracket.
