■ Alarms and warning indicators 
A combination of exterior and interior al arms as well as warnings displayed 
on the multi-information display are used to prevent theft of the vehicle and
unforeseeable accidents resulting from  erroneous operation. Take appropri- 
ate measures in response to any warning indications on the multi-informa-
tion display. ( P. 545) 
The following table describes circumstances and correction procedures 
when only alarms are sounded. 
■ Note for vehicle battery disconnection and reconnection 
● When the doors are attempted to be unlocked by means of the smart 
entry & start system just after the vehicle battery has been reconnected,
it may fail. In this case, use the wireless remote control or mechanical
key to unlock and lock the doors. 
● The first engine start since the last time the vehicle battery was recon- 
nected may fail. The engine will start from the second attempt, so it is not
a malfunction.

■ Engine speed while driving (vehicles with a Multidrive) 
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving. 
This is due to automatic up-shifting control or down-shifting implementation
to meet driving conditions. It does not indicate sudden acceleration. 
● The vehicle is judged to be driving uphill or downhill 
● When the accelerator pedal is released 
● When the brake pedal is depressed while “SPORT” mode is selected 
■ Breaking in your new Toyota 
To extend the life of the vehicle, the following precautions are recommended 
to observe: 
● For the first 300 km (200 miles): 
Avoid sudden stops. 
● For the first 800 km (500 miles): 
Do not tow a trailer. 
● For the first 1000 km (600 miles): 
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds. 
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in the low gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods. 
■ Drum-in-disc type parking brake system

brake system needs bedding-down of the brake shoes periodically or when-
ever the parking brake shoes and/or  drum are replaced. Have any autho- 
rized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional, perform the bedding down.
