When driving
LC200_OM_OM60F57U_(U)Minimum projected turning circle & projected course line
Use the minimum projected turn-
ing circle & projected course line
(when displayed) to check the
vehicle’s path with relation to
obstacles.
If the minimum projected turning
circle line (blue) is over the
obstacle as shown in the illustra-
tion, or the obstacle falls within
the minimum projected turning
circle, if you turn with the mini-
mum possible turning circle, the
vehicle may collide with the
object.
When the projected course line
(yellow) is displayed, be sure to
operate the steering
wheel so that the obstacle stays
outside the projected course line
until the vehicle has passed the
object.

■If the message “System is initializing.” is displayed
“System is initializing.” will be displayed
on the screen under the following condi-
tions:
• The battery has been reinstalled.
• The steering wheel has been moved
while the battery was being rein-
stalled.
• Battery power is low.
• The steering sensor has been rein-
stalled.
• There is a malfunction in the signals
being output by the steering sensor.
Initialize the system by performing either
of the procedures below:
• Drive for a short period of time while
keeping the steering wheel straight.
• Stop the vehicle, and turn the steer-
ing wheel as far as it will go to the
left and right. On the system initial-
ization screen, touch the “?” button
to display the operating procedure.
If this does not resolve the symptom,
have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.

CAUTION
■Conditions which may affect the Multi-terrain Monitor system
●If the tires are changed, the position of the guide lines displayed on the
screen may be incorrect. When changing the tires, consult your Toyota
dealer.
●Depending on the circumstances of the vehicle (number of passengers,
amount of luggage, etc.), the position of the guide lines displayed on the
screen may change. Be sure to check visually behind and all around the
vehicle before proceeding.
●Depending on the overall length of the vehicle (if a frontal protection sys-
tem is installed or the bumper has been replaced, etc.), the position of the
distance guidelines displayed on the front monitor may change. Be sure to
check visually behind and all around the vehicle before proceeding.
●When washing the vehicle, do not apply intensive bursts of water to the
camera or camera area. Doing so may result in the camera malfunction-
ing.
NOTICE
■When using the Multi-terrain Monitor
●Even if an obstacle is no longer visible on the side monitor, do not turn the
steering wheel further in the direction the vehicle is turning until the vehicle
has moved completely past the obstacle. If the steering wheel is turned to
full lock, the vehicle will turn in the smallest possible turning circle, and
may collide with the obstacle.
●It may be difficult to judge distance with the image from the front camera
due to the characteristics of the lens. Drive carefully while checking the
actual distance to the obstacles displayed on the screen. Also, give your
full attention to sudden bumps in the road.

Driving assist systems
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following sys-
tems operate automatically in response to various driving situations.
Be aware, however, that these systems are supplementary and
should not be relied upon too heavily when operating the vehicle.
■Multi Terrain ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if
the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface, or in off-
road conditions (such as rough roads, sand and mud).
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal is
depressed, when the system detects a panic stop situation.
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces.
■Active TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the 4 wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.
■Hill-start assist control
Helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling backwards when starting on an
incline or slippery slope.
■KDSS (Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System)
KDSS helps to ensure ride comfort and handling response by using a
hydraulic control system to control the suspension stabilizer bars in
response to road surface and driving conditions during cornering or off-
road driving.
■VGRS (Variable Gear Ratio Steering) (if equipped)
Helps to adjust the wheel turning angle in accordance with the vehicle
speed and steering wheel movement.
■PCS (Pre-Collision System) (if equipped)

LC200_OM_OM60F57U_(U)
When the VSC/Trailer Sway Control/Active TRAC/hill-start assist
control systems are operating
The slip indicator light flashes to
indicate that the VSC/Trailer
Sway Control/Active TRAC/hill-
start assist control systems have
been engaged.
The stop lights and high mounted
stoplight turn on when the hill-
start assist control system or
Trailer Sway Control is operating.
■Trailer Sway Control
Helps the driver to control trailer sway by selectively applying brake
pressure for individual wheels and reducing engine torque when trailer
sway is detected.
Trailer Sway Control is part of the VSC system and will not operate if
VSC turned off or experiences a malfunction.

LC200_OM_OM60F57U_(U)
To disable Active TRAC and/or VSC and Trailer Sway Control
If the vehicle gets stuck in fresh snow or mud, Active TRAC, VSC and
Trailer Sway Control may reduce power from the engine to the
wheels. You may need to turn the system off to enable you to rock the
vehicle in order to free it.
■Turning off Active TRAC
Quickly push and release the
button to turn off Active TRAC.
The “TRAC OFF” will be shown
on the multi-information display.
This mode can be used when the
transfer mode is H4.
Push the button again to turn the
system back on.
■Turning off Active TRAC, VSC and Trailer Sway Control
Push and hold the button for
more than 3 seconds while the
vehicle is stopped to turn off
Active TRAC, VSC and Trailer
Sway Control.
The VSC OFF indicator light will
come on and the “TRAC OFF” will
be shown on the multi-information
display.
Push the button again to turn the
system back on.

■Sounds and vibrations caused by the Multi Terrain ABS, brake assist,
Active TRAC, VSC, Trailer Sway Control, hill-start assist control and
VGRS
●A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the engine is
started or just after the vehicle begins to move. This sound does not indi-
cate that a malfunction has occurred in any of these systems.
●Any of the following conditions may occur when the above systems are
operating. None of these indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard after the vehicle comes to a stop.
• The brake pedal may pulsate slightly after the Multi Terrain ABS is acti-
vated.
• The brake pedal may move down slightly after the Multi Terrain ABS is
activated.
■Hill-start assist control is operational when
●The shift lever is in “D” or “S”.
●The brake pedal is not depressed.
■VGRS is disabled in the following situations
●During stopping or the steering wheel has been moved for a long time
while driving at lower speeds.
●After the engine is restarted at less than -22F (-30C).
●If you disconnect the battery with the steering wheel turned, the center
position of the steering wheel could be slightly and temporary hanged. To
initialize the VGRS, drive for a short while.
