For safety and security
Hybrid system precautions
The illustration is an example for explanation and may differ from the
actual item.
Take care when handling the hybrid system, as it is a high volt-
age system (about 650V at maximum) as well as contains parts
that become extremely hot when the hybrid system is operating.
Obey the warning labels attached to the vehicle.

■System check display
After turning the power switch to ON mode, opening image is displayed while
system operation is checked. When the system check is complete, the nor-
mal screen will return.
■ Pop-up display
When a system that supports pop-up displays, such as the air conditioning
system, is operated, a pop-up display will be temporarily displayed.
■ When disconnecting and reconnect ing 12-volt battery terminals
The fuel consumption display and average vehicle speed will be reset.
■ Liquid crystal display
Small spots or light spots may appear on the display. This phenomenon is
characteristic of liquid crystal displays, and there is no problem continuing to
use the display.
■ Meter display setting initialization
Press or on the meter control switch to select , and then
press .
Press or to select meter setting initialization, press , and then
select “YES”.
■ Customization
The meter settings can be changed.
(Customizable features: P. 573)
NOTICE
■The multi-information disp lay at low temperatures
Allow the interior of the vehicle to warm up before using the liquid crystal
information display. At extremely low temperatures, the information display
monitor may respond slowly, and display changes may be delayed.

4-3. Operating the lights and wipers
■Daytime running light system
●To make your vehicle more visible to other drivers, the daytime running
lights turn on automatically (at a reduced intensity) whenever the hybrid sys-
tem is started and the parking brake is released. Daytime running lights are
not designed for use at night.
For the U.S.A.: Daytime running lights can be turned off by operating the
headlight switch.
● Compared to turning on the headlights, the daytime running light system
offers greater durability and consumes less electricity, so it can help improve
fuel economy.
■ Headlight control sensor (if equipped)
■ Automatic light off system
●When the headlights come on: The headlights and tail lights turn off 30 sec-
onds after a door is opened and closed if the power switch is turned to
ACCESSORY mode or turned off. (The li ghts turn off immediately if on
the key is pressed after all the doors are locked.)
● When only the tail lights come on: The tail lights turn off automatically if the
power switch is turned to ACCESSORY mode or turned off and the driver’s
door is opened.
To turn the lights on again, turn the power switch to ON mode, or turn the light
switch off once and then back to or .
■ Automatic headlight leveling system (if equipped)
The level of the headlights is automatically adjusted according to the number
of passengers and the loading condition of the vehicle to ensure that the
headlights do not interfere with other road users. The sensor may not function properly if an
object is placed on the sensor, or anything
that blocks the sensor is affixed to the
windshield.
Doing so interferes with the sensor
detecting the level of ambient light and
may cause the automatic headlight sys-
tem to malfunction.
Air conditioning operation may also be
interrupted.

Driving
■LDA indicator
Even if the LDA switch is pressed, when the LDA indicator does not come on
the system may have a malfunction. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toy-
ota dealer immediately.
■ Alert buzzer for lane departure alert
Depending on the audio system sound level or air conditioning fan noise
while the audio system or air conditioning system is in use, it may be difficult
to hear the alert buzzer.
■ After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA may not be available and a warning message will be displayed for a
while after driving has started. When the temperature in the cabin decreases
and the temperature around the camera sensor ( P. 225) becomes suitable
for its operation, turn the LDA switch on again after a short time.
■ If there are lane markers on only one side of the vehicle
The lane departure alert will not oper ate for the side on which lane markers
could not be recognized.
■ Conditions in which the function may not operate correctly
In the following situations, the camera sensor may be unable to recognize
lane markers causing the lane departure alert function to operate incorrectly.
However, this does not indicate a malfunction.
●When there are shadows on the road running parallel with lane markers, or
if a shadow covers the lane markers
● When driving through an area with no lane markers, such as a toll booth, a
crossing or before a ticket checkpoint
● When the lane markers are broken, Botts’ dots (raised pavement markers)
or stones
● When lane markers are obscured or partially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
● When driving on a road surface that is wet due to rain, previous rainfall,
standing water, etc.
● When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the sys-
tem to recognize compared to white markers.)
● When the lane markers are on a curb, etc.
● When driving on a particularly bright road surface, such as concrete
● When driving on a road surface that is bright due to reflected light
● When driving in a location where the light level changes rapidly, such as the
entrance to or exit from a tunnel
● When sunlight or the headlights of oncoming vehicles are shining directly
into the camera lens
● When driving on roads that are branching or merging
● When driving on winding roads or roads that are uneven

Driving
Driving mode select switch
Eco drive mode*
Suitable for improving 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.
When the “ECO” switch is pressed, the “ECO MODE” indicator comes on
in the instrument cluster.
Power mode*
Use when high levels of response and feeling are desirable, such as when
driving in mountainous regions or when overtaking.
When the “PWR” switch is pressed, the “PWR MODE” indicator comes on
in the instrument cluster.
*: When Eco drive mode and power mode are canceled, the system uses
normal mode for optimal everyday driving.
■ Operation of the air conditio ning system in Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode controls the heating/cooling operations and fan speed of the
air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency ( P. 367). To improve air
conditioning performance, adjust the fan speed or turn off Eco drive mode.
■ When canceling Eco drive mode/power mode
●Press the switch again. Also, power mode will be canceled automatically
when the power switch is turned off. However, Eco drive mode will not be
canceled automatically until the switch is pressed, even if the power switch
is turned off.
● When in Eco drive mode, if the “PWR” switch is pressed or the operation is
reversed, the mode will switch to that of the last switch to be pressed.
■ Switching the drive mode when in EV drive mode
P. 178
The driving modes can be selected to suit driving conditions.
