(P. 225)
■ Touch tracer display
●The touch tracer display can be set to not display even if the steering
switches are touched.
● Only the circular, rubber-covered switches have a built-in touch sensor.
Touching any of the other switches will not display the touch tracer dis-
play.
■ Display settings can be changed when
The vehicle speed is less than approximately 5 mph (8 km/h).
■ Engine speed
On hybrid vehicles, engine speed is precisely controlled in order to help
improve fuel efficiency and reduce exhaust emissions etc. There are times
when the engine speed that is displayed may differ even when vehicle oper-
ation and driving conditions are the same.
■ When the 12-volt battery is disconnected
The following data will be reset.
●Average fuel consumption
● Distance to empty
● Average vehicle speed
● Clock
● Display settings
● Trip meter

direction.
Large adjustment: Hold the
lever in the desired direction.
The set speed will be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By approximately 1 mph (1.6 km/h) each time
the lever is operated.
Large adjustment: The set speed can be increased or
decreased continually until the lever is released.
■ Canceling and resuming the constant speed control

cancels the constant speed
control.
The speed setting is also can-
celed when the brakes are
applied.
Pushing the lever up

NOTICE
■Camera sensor
●Keep the windshield clean at all times.
LKA performance may deteriorate due to the presence of raindrops, con-
densation, ice or snow on the windshield.
● Do not attach a sticker or other items to the windshield near the camera
sensor.
● When adjusting the rear view mirror, make sure that it does not block the
camera lens.
● When it is cold, using the heater with air blowing to the feet may allow the
upper part of the windshield to fog up. This will have a negative effect on
the images. In such a case, use the windshield defogger to provide warm,
dry air to the windshield.
● Do not place anything on the dashboard.
The camera sensor may recognize the image reflected on the windshield
as lane markings by mistake.
● Do not scratch the camera lens, or let it get dirty.
● Do not change the installation position of the camera sensor or remove it.
The direction of the camera sensor is precisely adjusted.
● Do not subject the camera sensor to strong impact or force, and do not
disassemble the camera sensor.
Observe the following to ensure that the
LKA system functions correctly.

Interior features
■If air flow from the vents decreases dramatically
The filter may be clogged. Contact your Toyota dealer.
■ Operation of the air conditio ning system in Eco drive mode
In the Eco drive mode, the air conditioning system is controlled as follows to
prioritize fuel efficiency:
● Engine speed and compressor operation controlled to restrict heating/
cooling capacity
● Fan speed restricted when automatic mode is selected
To improve air conditioning performance, perform the following operations:
● Adjust the fan speed
● Turn off Eco drive mode ( P. 204)
● Customize the air conditioning control of Eco drive mode. ( P. 590)
■ When outside air temperature is below 32 °F (0 °C)
The cooling and dehumidification function may not operate even when
is pressed.
■ Air conditioning odors
●During use, various odors from inside and outside the vehicle may enter
into and accumulate in the air conditioning system. This may then cause
odor to be emitted from the vents.
● To reduce potential odors from occurring:
• It is recommended that the air conditioning system be set to outside air
mode prior to turning the vehicle off.
• The start timing of the blower may be delayed for a short period of time immediately after the air conditioning system is started in automatic
mode.
■ Customization
Settings (e.g. enable/disable automatic operation of the air conditioning
compressor when the “AUTO” switch ON) can be changed.
(Customizable features P. 590)

■Illuminated entry system
The lights automatically turn on/off according to “POWER” switch mode, the
presence of the electronic key, whether the doors are locked/unlocked, and
whether the doors are opened/closed.
■ To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
If the interior lights remain on when the door is not fully closed and the inte-
rior light switch (door position on/off) is on, the lights will go off automatically
after 20 minutes.
■ Customization
Setting (e.g. The time elapsed before lights turn off) can be changed.
(Customizable features P. 594)
NOTICE
■To prevent 12-volt battery discharge
Do not leave the lights on longer than necessary when the hybrid system is
off.
