P. 547
If the “M” indicator is not displayed after shifting the shift lever to the
“M” position
If the display does not change to “M” on an occasion other than that

Have your vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or
another duly qualified and equipped professional immediately.

Driving in the “D” position
Shift lever
If the shift lever is shifted into the “D” position, the appropriate gear
is automatically selected, as determined by the driving conditions.
Paddle shift switches
While the shift lever is in the “D” position, engine braking force can
be temporarily switched to.
By firstly operating the “-” paddle shift switch, the “-” and “+”
switches can be used to freely switch the shift range.
Changing the shift range allows restriction of the highest gear, pre-
venting unnecessary upshifting and enabling the level of engine
braking force to be selected.

If the “M” indicator is not displayed after shifting the shift lever to the
“M” position
Vehicles without smart entry & start system: Within a few seconds of
turning the engine switch to the “ON” position, the transmission will not
go into “M” mode if the shift lever is moved to the “M” position.
Vehicles with smart entry & start system: Within a few seconds of turning
the “ENGINE START STOP” switch to IGNITION ON mode, the transmis-
sion will not go into “M” mode if the shift lever is moved to the “M” posi-
tion.
This is because a system check is being performed. In this case, wait a
moment and then try moving the shift lever to the “M” position again.
If the display does not change to “M” on an occasion other than that
described above, it may indicate a malfunction in the transmission sys-
tem. Have your vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional immedi-
ately.

If the automatic transmission temperature warning message is dis-
played
AI-SHIFT
AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver perfor-
mance and driving conditions.
AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the “D” position.
(Shifting the shift lever to the “M” position cancels the function.)
If the automatic transmission fluid tem-
perature warning message is displayed
while driving, make sure you return to
normal “D” position driving and reduce
speed by easing off the accelerator pedal.
Stop the vehicle in a safe place, shift the
shift lever to the “P” position and let the
engine idle until the warning message is
extinguished.
When the warning message is no longer
shown, the vehicle can be driven again.
If the warning message is not extin-
guished even after a short time, have
your vehicle inspected by any authorized
Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
