Push the lever away from you with
the headlight switch in
position.
The Automatic High Beam indica-
tor will come on when the head-
lights are turned on automatically
to indicate that the system is
active.
∗: If equipped
Automatic High Beam∗
The Automatic High Beam uses an in-vehicle front sensor to
assess the brightness of streetlights, the lights of vehicles
ahead etc., and automatically turns the high beam on or off as
necessary.
WARNING
■ Limitations of the Automatic High Beam
Do not rely on the Automatic High Beam. Always drive safely, taking care to
observe your surroundings and turning the high beam on or off manually if
necessary.
■ To prevent incorrect operation of the Automatic High Beam system
Do not overload the vehicle.

Driving
RSA recognizes specific road signs using the front sensor and pro-
vides information to the driver via the multi-information display.
If the system judges that the vehicle is being driven over the speed
limit, performing prohibited actions, etc., in relation to the recognized
road signs, it alerts the driver using a warning display and warning
buzzer
*.
*: This setting needs to be customized.

∗: If equipped
Summary of function
2804-5. Toyota Safety Sense
AURIS Touring Sports_EE (12K53E)
In the following situations, the RSA system alerts the driver using a
warning display.
●When the vehicle speed exceeds the speed warning threshold
applied to the speed limit of the sign displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display, the sign color becomes inverted.
● If it is detected that your vehicle is overtaking when a no overtaking
sign is displayed on the multi-information display, the sign flashes.
Depending on the situation, traffic environment (traffic direction,
speed, unit) may be detected incorrectly and a warning display may
not operate properly.
■ Automatic turn-off of RSA sign display
One or more signs automatically turn off in the following situations.
●A new sign is not recognized for a certain distance.
● The road changes due to a left or right turn, etc.
Depending on the situation, the driving behavior (turning, lane change, etc.)
may be detected incorrectly and the automatic turn-off may not operate
properly.

AURIS Touring Sports_EE (12K53E)■
When driving vehicle in country with different speed unit
Since RSA recognizes signs based on the set unit of the meter, it is neces-
sary to change the set unit of the meter. Adjust the set unit of the meter to the
speed unit of signs in the current location. ( →P. 631)
■ Turning the system on/off
■ Speed limit sign display
If the engine switch was last turned off while a speed limit sign was displayed
on the multi-information display, the same sign displays again when the
engine switch is turned to “ON” position (vehicles without smart entry & start
system) or IGNITION ON mode (vehicles with smart entry & start system).
■ When “Check RSA system.” is displ ayed on the multi-information dis-
play
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional immediately.
■ Customization
The settings for warning display, warning buzzer
*, speeding warning thresh-
old, etc., can be changed. (Customizable feature: →P. 631)
*: If a speed limit with supplemental mark is exceeded, the warning buzzer
does not operate. Select on the settings display
(→ P. 113)
Press the enter/set switch on the meter
control switches.
WARNING
■ Before using the RSA
Do not rely solely upon the RSA system. RSA is a system which supports
the driver by providing information, but it is not a replacement for a driver’s
own vision and awareness. Drive safely by always paying careful attention
to the traffic rules.
Inappropriate or negligent driving could lead to an unexpected accident.

Hood
●Vehicles with a Multidrive: If the hood is opened while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system with the shift lever in D or M, the engine will stall
and will not be able to be restarted by the automatic engine start function. In
this case, restart the engine using the normal engine starting procedure.
(→ P. 209, 213)
● Vehicles with a Multidrive: If the hood is opened while the engine is stopped
by the Stop & Start system with the shift lever in P or N, the engine will be
restarted automatically.
● Vehicles with a manual transmission: If the hood is opened while the engine
is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the engine will stall and will not be
able to be restarted by the automatic engine start function. In this case,
restart the engine using the normal engine starting procedure.
(→ P. 209, 213)
● If the hood is closed after the engine is started with the hood open, the Stop
& Start system will not operate. Close the hood, turn the engine switch off,
wait 30 seconds or more, and then start the engine.
■ When to use the Stop & Start system
●Vehicles with a manual transmission: If the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system and the shift lever is shifted into a position other than N with the
clutch pedal released, a buzzer will sound and Stop & Start indicator will
flash. This indicates that the engine is only stopped by the Stop & Start sys-
tem, not that the engine has been turned off completely.
● Use the Stop & Start system when stopping the vehicle temporarily at red
lights, intersections, etc. When stopping the vehicle for a longer period of
time, stop the engine completely.
● When the system does not operate, is canceled, or is malfunctioning, warn-
ing messages (vehicles with a 2-ring meter only) and a warning buzzer are
used to inform the driver. ( →P. 291)
● Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: If the engine switch is pressed
when the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the engine will stall
and will not be able to be restarted by the automatic engine start function. In
this case, restart the engine using the normal engine starting procedure.
(→ P. 209, 213)
● When the engine is restarted by the Stop & Start system, the power outlet
may be temporarily unusable, but this is not a malfunction.
● Installation and removal of electrical components and wireless devices may
affect the Stop & Start system. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional for details.

If “Stop & Start system malfunction. Inspect at dealer.” is displayed on
the multi-information display ( vehicles with a 2-ring meter)
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
■ If the Stop & Start cancel indicator continues to flash
The system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped profes-
sional.
WARNING
■ When the Stop & Start system is operating
●Vehicles with a Multidrive: Depress the brake pedal and apply the parking
brake when necessary while the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start sys-
tem (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
● Vehicles with a manual transmission: Keep the shift lever in N and depress
the brake pedal or apply the parking brake while the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
● Do not allow anyone to leave the vehicle while the engine is stopped by
the Stop & Start system (while the Stop & Start indicator is on).
An accident may occur due to the automatic engine start function.
● Ensure that the engine is not stopped by the Stop & Start system while the
vehicle is in a poorly ventilated area. The engine may restart due to the
automatic engine start function, causing exhaust gases to collect and
enter the vehicle, possibly resulting in death or a serious health hazard.
