To enter 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode, shift the shift lever
to M position. Gear steps can then be selected by operating the shift
lever or paddle shift switches (vehicles with a paddle shift switch),
allowing you to drive in the gear step of your choosing.Upshifting
Downshifting
The gear changes once every time
the shift lever or paddle shift switch
is operated.
The selected gear step, from M1 to
M7, will be displayed in the meter.
*1: Vehicles with a 3-ring meter
*2: Vehicles with a 2-ring meter
However, even when in the M position, the gear steps will be automat-
ically changed if the engine speed is too high, or too low.
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 7 levels of engine braking force.
● A lower gear step will provide great er engine braking force than a higher
gear step, and the engine speed will also increase.
■ If the 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode indicator does not come
on even after shifting the shift lever to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the Multidrive system. Have the vehicle
inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly quali-
fied and equipped professional immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)
■ When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
● The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is
stopped.
● After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
● When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.

2864-6. Using the driving support systems
AURIS Touring Sports_EE (12K53E)
After the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the vehi-
cle is on an incline, brake force is temporarily maintained to prevent
rolling backwards until the engine is restarted and drive force is gener-
ated.
When drive force is generated, the maintained brake force is automat-
ically canceled.
●This function operates on flat surfaces as well as steep inclines.
● Sound may be generated from the brakes, but this is not a malfunc-
tion.
● Brake pedal response may change and vibration may occur, but
these are not malfunctions.
■Operating conditions
●The Stop & Start system is operational when all of the following conditions
are met:
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The brake pedal is being depressed firmly.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The shift lever is in a position other than R.
• is off.
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The engine is adequately warmed up.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• Vehicles with a Multidrive: The accelerator pedal is not being depressed.
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: The clutch pedal is not being
depressed.

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.
