218 2-1. Driving procedures
If the shift lever cannot be shifted from “P”
P. 579
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
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.

Adjusting the set speed
To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired set
speed is obtained.
Increase the speed
Decrease the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily
move the lever in the desired
direction.
Large adjustment: Hold the
lever in the desired direction.
The set speed will be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By approximately 1.6 km/h (1 mph) each time the
lever is operated.
Large adjustment: The set speed can be increased or decreased con-
tinually until the lever is released.
Canceling and resuming the constant speed control
Pulling the lever toward you
cancels the constant speed
control.
The speed setting is also can-
celed when the brakes are
applied or the clutch pedal
(manual transmission only) is
depressed.
Pushing the lever up
resumes the constant
speed control.
Resuming is available when
the vehicle speed is more than

When driving
Cruise control can be set when
Vehicles with a Multidrive
The shift lever is in the “D” or range 4 or higher of “M” has been selected.
Range 4 or higher has been selected by using the paddle shift.
(vehicles with paddle shift switch)
Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
Vehicles with an automatic transmission
The shift lever is in “D”.
Range 4 or higher of “D” has been selected by using the paddle shift.
(vehicles with paddle shift switch)
Vehicle speed is above approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
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 control cancellation
Cruise control will stop maintaining the vehicle speed in any of the following
situations.
Actual vehicle speed falls more than approximately 16 km/h (10 mph)
below the preset vehicle speed.
At this time, the memorized set speed is not retained.
Actual vehicle speed is below approximately 40 km/h (25 mph).
VSC+ is activated.
Speed limiter is activated (if equipped).
If the cruise control indicator light flashes
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
immediately after being activated, there may be a malfunction in the cruise
control system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer
or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
