When the ignition is on, a message appears in the instrument panel screen to indicate a gearbox fault.
Operating fault
In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel
a substantial knock when changing from P to R and from N to R. This will not cause any damage to the gearbox.Do not exceed 60 mph (100 km/h), local speed restrictions permitting.Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
You risk damaging the gearbox:- if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time (braking or acceleration must be done only with the right foot),- if you force the selector from position P to another position when the battery is flat.
To reduce fuel consumption when stationary for long periods with the engine running (traffic jam...), position the selector at N and apply the parking brake.
Stopping the vehicle
A stiff point may be noticed when moving to position P.If the selector is not in position P, when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, there is an audible signal and a message appears.F Return the selector to position P; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
Before switching off the engine, select position P then apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
In all circumstances, ensure that the selector is in position P before leaving your vehicle.
On a steep slope with a loaded vehicle, press the brake pedal, select position P, apply the parking brake then release the brake pedal.

Operating fault
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the vehicle may stall.All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on.Depending on version, an alert message may also be displayed, asking you to place the gear lever in position N and put your foot on the brake pedal.With the vehicle stationary, you must switch off the ignition and then start the engine again.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and technology.
The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears,
accompanied by an audible signal.
In the event of a fault with the system, this warning lamp flashes in the instrument panel.All work on this type of battery must be done by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.For more information on the 12 V batter y, refer to the corresponding section.

In the event of a fault with the adaptive cruise control, you are alerted by an audible signal and display of the message message "Driving aid functions fault".Have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
Operating faultThe adaptive cruise control operates by day and at night, in fog or moderate rainfall.
When the cruise control is working, take care if making a maintained press on one of the cruise control programmed speed modification buttons: this can lead to a very quick change in the speed of your vehicle.Do not use the adaptive cruise control on slippery sur faces or in heavy traffic.
When descending a steep hill, the cruise control may not be able to prevent the vehicle from exceeding the programmed speed.When ascending a steep hill or when towing, it might not be possible to achieve or maintain the programmed speed.
The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with the operation of the adaptive cruise control.To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:- ensure that mats are secured c o r r e c t l y,- never fit one mat on top of another.It is recommended that you always keep
your feet close to the pedals.
If the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front is too great, the speed cannot be adjusted: the cruise control is automatically deactivated.
The system does not act on the braking system, but works only with engine braking.The regulation range is limited: there will no longer be any adjustment of speed if the difference between the programmed speed setting and the speed of the vehicle in front becomes too high.
The adaptive cruise control cannot in any circumstances replace the observation of speed limits, nor the need for the vigilance on the part of the driver.

The Autonomous emergency braking system does not operate:- if the front bumper is damaged,- if the system has been triggered in the last 10 seconds,- if the electronic stability control system has a fault.
Limits of operation
It is recommended that the system be deactivated in the vehicle configuration menu in the following cases:- if the windscreen has impact damage close to the detection camera,- when towing a trailer or caravan,- when a load on the roof rack extends beyond the windscreen (for example: long objects),- when the vehicle is being towed, with the engine running,- when a "space-saver" type spare wheel is fitted (if your vehicle has one),- when on a rolling road for a service in a workshop,- when in an automatic car wash,- if the brake lamps are not working.
Following an impact, the system is automatically disabled; contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional to have the system checked.
Forward collision warning
Depending on the degree of risk of collision detected by the system and the alert threshold chosen, different levels of alert can be triggered and displayed in the instrument panel or the head-up display.
This level of alert is based on the inter-vehicle time between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Level 1: visual alert only, warning you that the vehicle ahead is very close.A message on your vigilance is displayed as you close on the vehicle ahead.
This information also appears in the head-up display.For more information on the Head-up display, refer to the corresponding section.

Fuel used for Diesel
engines
The Diesel engines are compatible with biofuels that conform to current and future European standards and and can be obtained from filling stations:
The use of B20 or B30 fuel meeting standard EN16709 is possible in your Diesel engine. However, this use, even occasional, requires strict application of the special servicing conditions referred to as "Arduous conditions".For more information, contact an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
It is still possible to use a fuel can to fill the tank but this must be done slowly.In order to ensure a good flow of fuel, do not place the nozzle of the fuel can in direct contact with the flap of the misfuel prevention device.
Travelling abroad
As Diesel fuel pump nozzles may be different in other countries, the presence of the misfuel prevention device may make refuelling impossible.Before travelling abroad, we recommend that
you check with the Toyota dealer network, whether your vehicle is suitable for the fuel pumps in the country in which you want to travel.
The use of any other type of (bio)fuel (vegetable or animal oils, pure or diluted, domestic fuel...) is strictly prohibited (risk of damage to the engine and fuel system).
The only Diesel additives authorised for use are those that meet the B715000 standard.
- Diesel fuel that meets standard EN590 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester),
- Diesel fuel that meets standard EN16734 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 10 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester),
- Paraffinic Diesel fuel that meets standard EN15940 mixed with a biofuel that meets standard EN14214 (possibly containing up to 7 % Fatty Acid Methyl Ester).
