WARNING
■Before using the LDA system
Do not rely solely upon the LDA system. LDA is not a system which auto-
matically drives the vehicle or reduces the amount of attention that must be
paid to the area in front of the vehicle. The driver must always assume full
responsibility for driving safely by always paying careful attention to the sur-
rounding conditions and operate the steering wheel to correct the path of
the vehicle. Also, make sure to take adequate breaks when fatigued, such
as from driving for a long period of time.
Failure to perform appropriate driving operations and pay careful attention
may lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■To avoid operating the LDA by mistake
When not using the LDA system, use the LDA switch to turn the system off.
■Preventing LDA system malfunctions and operations performed by
mistake
●Do not modify the headlights or place stickers, etc., on the surface of the
lights.
●Do not modify the suspension etc. If the suspension etc. needs to be
replaced, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly
qualified and equipped professional.
●Do not install or place anything on the hood or grille. Also, do not install a
grille guard (bull bars, kangaroo bar, etc.).
●If your windshield needs repairs, contact any authorized Toyota dealer or
repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.

Driving
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.
• The outside temperature is -5°C (23°F) or higher.
• Vehicles with a manual transmission: The shift lever is in N.
• The hood is closed.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of Simple-IPA
●Never depend on the Simple-IPA entirely when parking. The driver is
responsible for safety. Use caution, just as you would when parking any
vehicle.
●Back up slowly, using the brake pedal to control the vehicle's speed.
●If it seems likely to hit nearby vehicles, obstacles, or people, depress the
brake pedal to stop the vehicle, and the disable the system.
■Conditions in which the use of Simple-IPA is prohibited
Do not use Simple-IPA under the following conditions.
Doing so may cause improper operation and lead to an unexpected acci-
dent.
●On sharp bends or slopes.
●On slippery or icy roads, or in snow.
●On uneven road surfaces such as gravel.
●During bad weather such as heavy rain, fog, snow, or a sandstorm.
●When the tires are extremely worn or tire pressure is low.
●When the vehicle has improper wheel alignment due to tires having
received a strong impact such as bumping against a curb.
●When the compact spare tire (if equipped) or snow chains are installed.
●When the tires slid while attempting to park.
●When fallen leaves or snow is in a parking space.
●When items such as a towing bracket, trailer, bicycle carrier, etc. are
installed on the rear of the vehicle.
●When a vehicle of which the front/rear end is above the detection area,
such as a truck, bus or vehicle with a towing bracket, trailer, bicycle carrier,
etc., is parked at the front or rear of the parking space.
●If the front bumper has been damaged.
●If the sensor is covered by the front bumper cover, etc.
●If a vehicle or obstacle is not in a suitable position at the front or rear of the
parking space.
■Automatic steering precautions
As the steering wheel moves automatically in the parking assist function, be
aware of the following point.
●Keep clothing such as neckties, scarves and long sleeves away from the
steering wheel, as they may become entangled. Also, keep children away
from the steering wheel.
●If you have long fingernails, be careful not to injure yourself when the
steering wheel moves.

◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly,
or if the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force after the brake pedal
is depressed when the system detects a panic stop situation
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road surfaces
◆TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and prevent the drive wheels from
spinning when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads
◆Hill-start assist control
Helps to prevent the vehicle from rolling backward when starting on
an incline
◆EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to reduce the amount of effort needed to
turn the steering wheel
◆Emergency brake signal
When the brakes are applied suddenly, the emergency flashers
automatically flash to alert the vehicle behind.
Driving assist systems
To help enhance driving safety and performance, the following
systems operate automatically in response to various driving
situations. Be aware, however, that these systems are supple-
mentary and should not be relied upon too heavily when operat-
ing the vehicle.

When the following three conditions are met, the emergency brake signal will
operate:
●The emergency flashers are off.
●Actual vehicle speed is over 55 km/h (35 mph).
●The brake pedal is depressed in a manner that cause the system to judge
from the vehicle deceleration that this is a sudden braking operation.
■Automatic system cancelation of emergency brake signal
The emergency brake signal will turn off in any of the following situations:
●The emergency flashers are turned on.
●The brake pedal is released.
●The system judges from the vehicle deceleration that is not a sudden brak-
ing operation.
WARNING
■The ABS does not operate effectively when
●The limits of tire gripping performance have been exceeded (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, especially in the
following situations:
●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
■TRC may not operate effectively when
Directional control and power may not be achievable while driving on slip-
pery road surfaces, even if the TRC system is operating.

WARNING
■Hill- start assist control does not operate effectively when
●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.
■When the VSC is activated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always drive carefully. Reckless driving may
cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/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 TRC/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, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are installed on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional for further information when replacing tires or
wheels.
■Handling of tires and the 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.
