COROLLA_TMMMS_TMMC_U (OM12F00U)The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as:
●Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
●Cruise control system (if equipped)
●Anti-lock brake system
●SRS airbag system
●Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary measures or spe-
cial instructions regarding installation of a mobile two-way radio system.
Your Toyota is equipped with several sophisticated computers that will record
certain data, such as:
• Engine speed
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Shift position (except vehicles with a manual transmission)
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options
with which it is equipped. Furthermore, these computers do not record con-
versations, sounds or pictures.
●Data usage
Toyota may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunc-
tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if
the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-
ment agency
• For use by Toyota in a law suit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or
vehicle owner

*: Shifting to the D position allows the system to select a gear suitable for
driving conditions. Setting the shift lever to the D position is recommended
for normal driving.
■Downshifting restrictions
The shift lever cannot be downshifted if the following speeds are exceeded.
mph (km/h)
■When driving with cruise control activated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate while downshifting to 3 because
cruise control will not be canceled. (P. 197)
■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
P. 528
■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.
Shift position uses

CAUTION
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Be careful of downshifting and sudden acceleration, as this could result in
the vehicle skidding to the side or spinning.

*: To improve fuel efficiency and reduce noises, set the shift lever in D for
normal driving.
Press the switch.
Suitable for enhancing the fuel
economy, because the torque cor-
responding to the accelerator
pedal depression amount can be
generated more smoothly than it is
in normal conditions and the oper-
ation of the air conditioning system
(heating/cooling) will be minimized.
Press the switch again to return to
normal mode.
■When driving with cruise control activated
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate while downshifting to S because
cruise control will not be canceled. (P. 197)
