When driving ■ Outside temperature display
● In the following situations, the correct outside temperature may not be
displayed.
• When the vehicle is very hot, such as when under the sun.
• When the vehicle is idling or being driven at low speeds such as in a
traffic jam or when the engine is stopped and then restarted immedi-
ately afterward.
• When the actual outside temperature is outside of the indicator range.
● If “ − − ” is displayed for approximately 1 minute or more or if the outside
temperature is not displayed, the system may be malfunctioning. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
WARNING■ The information displ ay 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.
For example, there is a lag between the driver's shifting and the new shift
position number appearing on the display. In this case, wait until the display
changes and take care not to downshift again, causing rapid and excessive
engine braking and possibly an accident resulting in death or serious injury.

1772-3. Operating the lights and windshield wipers
2
When driving
■ The windshield wipers and washer can be operated when
The engine switch is in the “ON” position.
■ If no windshield washer fluid sprays
Check that the washer nozzles are not blocked if there is washer fluid in the
windshield washer fluid tank.
WARNING■ Caution regarding the use of washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the washer fluid until the windshield becomes
warm. The fluid may freeze on the windshield and cause low visibility. This
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury. Washer/wiper dual opera-
tion The wipers will automatically
operate a couple of times after
the washer squirts.

When driving ■ Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is reduced to prevent the system from
overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period of
time. The steering wheel may feel heavy as a result. Should this occur,
refrain from excessive steering input or stop the vehicle and turn the engine
off. The EPS system should return to normal after a little while.
■ Automatic deactivation of “TRACK” mode
When the engine switch is turned to “LOCK” position after driving in
“TRACK” mode, the mode is automatically deactivated.
WARNING■ The ABS does not operate effectively when
● Tires with inadequate gripping ability are used (such as excessively worn
tires on a snow covered road).
● The vehicle hydroplanes while driving at high speed on wet or slick roads.
■ Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of nor-
mal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehicle’s stopping distance. Always
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you in the following situ-
ations:
● When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
● When driving with tire chains
● When driving over bumps in the road
● When driving over roads with potholes or uneven surfaces
■ TRAC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRAC system is operating.
Do not drive the vehicle in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■ When the VSC and/or brake LSD function is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.

1902-4. Using other driving systems
WARNING■ When the TRAC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As these are the systems to help ensure vehicle stability and driving
force, do not turn the TRAC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■ Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the specified size, brand, tread pattern and
total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the
recommended tire inflation pressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for further information when replacing tires or
wheels.
■ Handling of tires and suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect
the driving assist systems, and may cause a system to malfunction.

When driving
Hill-start assist control Hill-start assist control helps to maintain braking force to assist
starting off forward while facing uphill or starting off backward while
facing downhill. As hill-start assist control is initially disabled,
enable the system to make it op erable. The enabled/disabled setting
will be maintained the next time the engine is started.
The hill-start as sist control ON
indicator will be illuminated
when system is enabled and
flash while the system is oper-
ating.
■ Enabling hill-start assist control
Park your vehicle in a flat, safe location. Make sure that the parking brake is securely engaged.
Stop the engine by turning the engine switch to the “LOCK”
position.
Start the engine and check t hat the ABS warning light and
slip indicator are off.
Press and hold for
approximately 30 seconds.
Check that both the VSC off
indicator and “TRAC OFF” indi-
cator illuminate and then turn
off.STEP 1

■ Notes for hill-start assist control
● A slight jolt may be felt when starting off backward with the shift lever in R
and then moving forward.
● If the braking power of hill-start assist control is insufficient, depress the
brake pedal.
● While the vehicle is stopped, make sure to depress the brake pedal.
■ The system may be malfunctioning when
In the following situations, the system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota dealer.
● The slip indicator is illuminated.
● The hill-start assist control ON indicator turns off and a buzzer sounds.
WARNING■ Hill-start assist control precautions
● Do not overly rely on hill-start assist control. Hill-start assist control may
not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
● Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold the
vehicle stationary for an extended period of time. Do not attempt to use
hill-start assist control to hold the vehicle on an incline, as doing so may
lead to an accident.
● Do not stop the engine while hill-start assist control is operating, as hill-
start assist control will stop operating, possibly leading to an accident.

1972-5. Driving information
2
When driving As shown in the example above, if the number of occupants
increases, the cargo and luggage load will be reduced by an amount
that equals the increased weight due to the additional occupants. In
other words, if an increase in the number of occupants causes an
excess of the total load capacity (combined weight of occupants plus
cargo and luggage load), you must reduce the cargo and luggage on
your vehicle.
WARNING■
Things that must not be carried in the trunk
The following things may cause a fire if loaded in the trunk: ●
Receptacles containing gasoline●
Aerosol cans
