Driving
■Important points regarding stability
Vehicle movement resulting from uneven road surfaces and strong
crosswinds will affect handling. The vehicle may also be rocked by
passing buses or large trucks. Frequently check behind when mov-
ing alongside such vehicles. As soon as such vehicle movement
occurs, immediately start to decelerate smoothly by slowly applying
the brakes. Always steer the vehicle straight ahead while braking.
■Passing other vehicles
Consider the total combined length of your vehicle and trailer and
ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is sufficient before exe-
cuting lane changes.
■Transmission information
Multidrive
To maintain engine braking efficiency and charging system perfor-
mance when using engine braking, do not use the transmission in
D, must be in M and select gear step 4 or lower. (P. 226)
Manual transmission
Refrain from driving in 6th gear to maintain the effectiveness of
engine braking and to maintain charging system performance.
■If the engine overheats
Towing a loaded trailer up a long, steep incline in temperatures
exceeding 30C (85F) may result in the engine overheating. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge indicates that the engine is over-
heating, turn the air conditioning off immediately, leave the road and
stop the vehicle in a safe place. (P. 603)
■When parking the vehicle
Always place wheel chocks under the wheels of both the vehicle
and trailer. Firmly set the parking brake and shift the shift lever to P
(Multidrive) and 1 or R (manual transmission).

2284-2. Driving procedures
AURIS Touring Sports_EE (12L13E)■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake pedal, there may
be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by any
authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped
professional immediately.
The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to ensure that
the shift lever can be shifted.
Releasing the shift lock:
Set the parking brake.
Vehicles without a smart entry & start system: Turn the engine switch to the
“LOCK” position.
Vehicles with a smart entry & start system: Turn the engine switch off.
Depress the brake pedal.
■G AI-SHIFT
G AI-SHIFT automatically selects a suitable gear for sporty driving according
to driver’s input and driving conditions. G AI-SHIFT operates automatically
when the shift lever is in D and sport mode is selected for the driving mode.
(Selecting normal mode or shifting the shift lever to the M position cancels
this function.)Pry the cover up with a flathead screw-
driver or equivalent tool.
To prevent damage to the cover, cover
the tip of the screwdriver with a rag.
Press the shift lock override button.
The shift lever can be shifted while the
button is pressed.

The front sensor is located on the
upper side of the windshield. It
consists of 2 types of sensors,
each of which detects information
necessary to operate the drive
assist systems.
Laser sensors
Monocular camera sensor
Front sensor

WARNING
■Front sensor
The front sensor uses lasers to detect vehicles ahead of your vehicle. The
front sensor is classified as class 1M laser product according to the IEC
60825-1 standard. Under normal usage conditions, these lasers are not
harmful to the naked eye. However, it is necessary to observe the following
precautions.
Failure to do so may result in the loss of eyesight or severe visual impair-
ment.
●To avoid hazardous laser radiation exposure, never attempt to disassem-
ble the front sensor (e.g. remove the lenses). When disassembled, the
front sensor is classified as a class 3B laser product according to the IEC
60825-1 standard. Class 3B lasers are hazardous and pose a risk of eye
injury under direct exposure.
●Do not attempt to look into the front sensor with a magnifying glass, micro-
scope or other optical instrument within a distance of less than 100 mm
(3.9 in.).

WARNING
●While driving, such as when driving through a railway crossing, the system
may determine that the possibility of a collision with an object, such as rail-
way crossing barrier, is high and operate the pre-crash braking function.
To move the vehicle in an emergency, such as if the system operates in a
railway crossing, perform the following operations and then take the nec-
essary measures to ensure your safety.
• If the vehicle has been stopped, depress the accelerator pedal.
• If the vehicle is decelerating, fully depress the accelerator pedal.
(P. 262)
• Disable the pre-crash safety system. (P. 261)
■When to disable the pre-crash safety system
In the following situations, disable the system, as it may not operate prop-
erly, possibly leading to an accident resulting in death or serious injury:
●When the vehicle is being towed
●When your vehicle is towing another vehicle
●When transporting the vehicle via truck, boat, train or similar means of
transportation
●When the vehicle is raised on a lift with the engine running and the tires
are allowed to rotate freely
●When inspecting the vehicle using a drum tester such as a chassis dyna-
mometer or speedometer tester, or when using an on vehicle wheel bal-
ancer
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehi-
cle has been in an accident or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a sporty manner or off-road
●When the condition of the tires is poor and they do not perform well
(P. 490, 505)
●When tires of a size other than specified are installed
●When tire chains are installed
●When a compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair kit is used

AURIS Touring Sports_EE (12L13E)■If the PCS warning light flashes or illuminates and a warning message is
displayed on the multi-information display
The pre-crash safety system may be temporarily unavailable or there may be
a malfunction in the system.
●In the following situations, the warning light will turn off, the message will
disappear and the system will become operational when normal operating
conditions return:
• When the area around the front sensor is hot, such as in the sun
• When the windshield is fogged up or covered with condensation or ice
(P. 406, 413)
• When the front sensor or the area around either sensor is cold, such as in
an extremely cold environment
• If the area in front of the front sensor is obstructed, such as when the
hood is open
●If the PCS warning light continues to flash or illuminate or the warning mes-
sage does not disappear, the system may be malfunctioning. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional immediately.
■If VSC is disabled
●If TRC and VSC are disabled (P. 333), the pre-crash safety brake assist
and pre-crash safety braking functions are also disabled. However, the pre-
crash safety warning function will still operate.
●The PCS warning light illuminates and “Pre-Crash Brake is disabled due to
VSC OFF.” is displayed on the multi-information display.
