When the shift lever is in the S position, the shift lever or paddle shift
switches (if equipped) can be operated as follows:
The initial shift range in S mode is set automatically to 4 or 5 accord-
ing to vehicle speed. However, the initial shift range may be set to 3 if
AI-SHIFT has operated while the shift lever was in the D position.

Shift ranges and their functions
● The vehicle is allowed to shift up and down to provide the most
suitable gear selection based on your driving situation. (e.g. S4:
1 to 4 or, 4 to 1)
● You can choose from 6 levels of engine braking force.
A lower shift range will provide gr eater engine braking force than
a higher shift range, and the engine speed will also increase.
● You can choose the gear range y ou want for different levels of
acceleration. (e.g. uphill, sporty driving, etc.)

To drive using temporary shift range selection, operate the “-” paddle
shift switch. The shift range can then be selected by operating the “-”
and “+” paddle shift switches. Changing the shift range allows restric-
tion of the highest gear, preventing upshifting and enabling the level of
engine braking force to be selected.Upshifting
Downshifting
The selected shift range, from 1 to
5, or D will be displayed in the
meter.
To return to normal D position
driving, the “+” paddle shift switch
must be held down for a period of
time.
When a shift range higher than 5 is selected, the shif t range will return
to the normal D position.
When the vehicle comes to a stop, the shift range will return to the
normal D position.

■S mode
●When the shift range is 4 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the
shift range to 6.
● To prevent the engine from over-revving, upshifting may automatically
occur.
● To protect the automatic transmission, a function is adopted that automati-
cally selects a higher shift range when the fluid temperature is high.
■ Downshift restriction warning buzze r (S mode or paddle shifting)
To help ensure safety and driving performance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever or paddle shift switches are operated. (A
buzzer will sound twice.)
■ When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control acti-
vated
When downshifting to 5 or 4 by shifting the shift lever to the S position or pad-
dle shifting (if equipped), cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control will
not be canceled. ( P. 183, 188)
■ If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
P. 486
■ If the S indicator does not come on or the D indicator is displayed even
after shifting the shift lever to S
This may indicate a malfunction in the automatic transmission system. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)
■ AI-SHIFT
AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suitable gear according to driver input and
the driving situation.
AI-SHIFT automatically operates when the shift lever is in the D position.
(Shifting the shift lever to the S position or paddle shifting cancels the func-
tion.)
WARNING
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift gears suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine braking may cause the vehicle to spin or skid,
resulting in an accident.

■Cruise control can be set when
●The shift lever is in D or range 4 or higher of S has been selected.
● Range 4 or higher of D has been selected by using the paddle shift.
(vehicles with paddle shift switches)
● Vehicle speed is above approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
■ Accelerating after setting the vehicle speed
●The vehicle can be accelerated normally. After acceleration, the set speed
resumes.
● Even without canceling the cruise control, the set speed can be increased
by first accelerating the vehicle to the desired speed and then pushing the
lever down to set the new speed.
■ Automatic cruise co ntrol cancelation
Cruise control will stop maintaining the vehicle speed in any of the following
situations:
● Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 10 mph (16 km/h) below
the preset vehicle speed.
At this time, the memorized set speed is not retained.
● Actual vehicle speed is below approximately 25 mph (40 km/h).
● VSC is activated.
● TRAC is activated for a period of time.
● When the VSC or TRAC system is turned off by pressing the VSC OFF
switch
■ If the cruise control indicator light comes on in yellow (vehicles without
a multi-information display) or a warning message for the cruise control
is shown on the multi-information disp lay (vehicles with a multi-informa-
tion display)
Press the “ON-OFF” button once to deactivate the system, and then press
the button again to reactivate the system.
If the cruise control speed cannot be set or if the cruise control cancels imme-
diately after being activated, there may be a malfunction in the cruise control
system. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.

Dynamic radar cruise control supple ments conventional cruise control
with a vehicle-to-vehicle distance control. In vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance control mode, the vehicle automatically accelerates or deceler-
ates in order to maintain a set fo llowing distance from vehicles ahead.
