CAUTION
When installing a child restraint system
Type E
When a junior seat is installed, always ensure that the shoulder belt is
positioned across the center of the child’s shoulder. The belt should be
kept away from the child’s neck, but not so that it could fall off the child’s
shoulder. Failing to do so may result in death or serious injury in the event
of sudden braking, sudden swerving or an accident.

Eco Driving Indicator Zone Display (if equipped)
The Eco-friendly acceleration operation (Eco-friendly driving) range is dis-
played along with the current amount of acceleration. If the accelerator
pedal is depressed down too far and Zone of Eco driving is exceeded, the
right-hand side of the bar-graph will begin to flash.
Also, it will not be operated if the following conditions are met while driving:
The shift position is anything other than “D”
The vehicle is being driven in “SPORT” mode
If equipped, the paddle shift switch is operated while the shift position is
“D”
The vehicle speed is approximately 130 km/h (80 mph) or higher.
Rear seat belt reminder buzzer
The rear seat belts reminder sounds to alert the rear passenger that his/her
seat belt is not fastened. The buzzer sounds for 30 seconds after the vehi-
cle has reached a speed of at least 20 km/h (12 mph). Then, if the seat belt
is still unfastened, the buzzer will sound in a different tone for 90 more sec-
onds.
Outside temperature display
In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be
displayed, or the display may take longer than normal to change.
• When stopped, or driving at low speeds (less than 20 km/h [12 mph])
• When the outside temperature has changed suddenly (at the entrance/
exit of a garage, tunnel, etc.)
When “--” is displayed, the system may be malfunctioning.
Take your vehicle to any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another

PCS (Pre-Crash Safety)
: If equipped
When the radar sensor detects possibility of a frontal collision, the
pre-crash safety systems such as the brakes and seat belts are
automatically engaged to lessen impact and injuries to occupants
as well as vehicle damage.
Pre-crash seat belts
If the pre-crash sensor detects that a collision is unavoidable,
the pre-crash safety system will retract the seat belt before the
collision occurs.
The same will happen if the driver makes an emergency braking
or loses control of the vehicle. (P. 110)
However, when the VSC system is disabled, the system will not
operate in the event of skidding.
Pre-crash brake assist
When there is a high possibility of a frontal collision, the system
applies greater braking force in relation to how strongly the
brake pedal is depressed.
Pre-crash braking
When there is a high possibility of a frontal collision, the system
warns the driver using a warning light, warning display and
buzzer. If the system determines that a collision is unavoidable,
the brakes are automatically applied to reduce the collision
speed. Pre-crash braking can be disabled using the pre-crash
braking OFF switch.
