● Do not turn the steering wheel fully in either direction and hold it there for 
an extended period of time.  
Doing so may damage the power steering motor. 
● When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to avoid 
damaging the wheels, underside of the vehicle, etc. 
■ If you get a flat tire while driving  
A flat or damaged tire may cause the following situations. Hold the steering 
wheel firmly and gradually depress the brake pedal to slow down the vehi- 
cle. 
● It may be difficult to control your vehicle. 
● The vehicle will make abnormal sounds or vibrations. 
● The vehicle will lean abnormally. 
Information on what to do in case of a flat tire  
( P. 415, 430)

cause the following serious damage to the vehicle: 
● Engine stalling 
● Short in electrical components 
● Engine damage caused by water immersion 
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle is flooded, be 
sure to have any authorized Toyota deale r or repairer, or another duly quali- 
fied and equipped professional check the following:

• If the wheels are misaligned 
• If a wiper blade is blocking the front sensor 
• The vehicle is wobbling. 
• The vehicle is being driven at extremely high speeds.
• When driving on roads with sharp bends or uneven surfaces 
• When a preceding vehicle is a poor reflector of laser 
● In some situations such as the following, sufficient braking force may not be 
obtained, preventing the system from performing properly: 
• If the braking functions cannot operate to their full extent, such as when 
the brake parts are extremely  cold, extremely hot, or wet 
• If the vehicle is not properly maintained (brakes or tires are excessively
worn, improper tire inflation pressure, etc.) 
• When the vehicle is being driven on a gravel road or other slippery sur- 
face 
• If your vehicle is skidding

■Temporary cancelation of the LDA system functions 
If any of the following occurs, the LDA system functions will be temporarily 
canceled. The functions will resume  after the necessary operating conditions 
have returned. 
● The turn signal lever is operated. 
● The vehicle speed deviates from the operating range of the LDA system 
functions. 
● When the lane lines cannot be recognized while driving. 
● When the lane departure warning sounds.  
The lane departure warning function will not operate again for a several sec-
onds after it has been activated, even if the vehicle leaves the lane again. 
■ The lane departure warning 
Depending on the audio system sound level or air conditioning fan noise 
while the audio system or air conditioning sy stem is in use, it may be difficult 
to hear the warning sound. 
■ After the vehicle has been parked in the sun 
The LDA system may not be immediatel y available. When the temperature in 
the cabin decreases and the temperature around the front sensor ( P. 214) 
becomes suitable for its operation, the functions will begin to operate. 
■ If there are lane markers on only one side of the vehicle 
The lane departure warning will not operate for the side on which lane mark- 
ers could not be recognized. 
■ Conditions in which the function may not operate correctly 
In the following situations, the front  sensor may be unable to recognize lane 
markers causing the lane departure warning function to operate incorrectly. 
However, this does not indicate a malfunction. 
● When driving through an area, such as a tollbooth, a crossing or before a 
ticket checkpoint 
● When driving on a sharp curve 
● When lane markers are extremely narrow or extremely wide 
● When the vehicle leans to one side an unusual amount due to a heavy load 
or improper tire inflation pressure 
● When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead is 
extremely short 
● When the lane markers are yellow (These may be more difficult for the sys- 
tem to recognize compared to white markers.) 
● When the lane markers are broken, Botts’ dots (raised pavement markers) 
or stones

● High beam may be turned on or off when unexpected by the driver. 
● In the situations below, the system may not be able to correctly detect the surrounding brightness levels, and may flash or expose nearby pedestrians to the high beam. Therefore, you shoul d consider turning the high beams on or off manually rather than relying on the Automatic High Beam system. 
• In bad weather (rain, snow, fog, sandstorms, etc.) • The windshield is obscured by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.• The windshield is cracked or damaged.• The front sensor is deformed or dirty. • The front sensor temperature is extremely high. • Surrounding brightness levels are equal to those of headlights, tail lightsor fog lights.• Vehicles ahead have headlights or tail lights that are either switched off,dirty, are changing color, or are not aimed properly.• When driving through an area of intermittently changing brightness anddarkness. • When frequently and repeatedly driving ascending/descending roads, or roads with rough, bumpy or uneven surfaces (such as stone-pavedroads, gravel tracks, etc.).• When frequently and repeatedly taking curves or driving on a windingroad.• There is a highly reflective object ahead of the vehicle, such as a sign or a mirror. • The back of a vehicle ahead is highly reflective, such as a container on atruck.• The vehicle’s headlights are damaged or dirty.• The vehicle is listing or titling, due to a flat tire, a trailer being towed, etc.• The driver believes that the high beam may be causing problems or dis- tress to other drivers or pedestrians nearby. 
■ If the Automatic High Beam indicator comes on in yellow 
It may indicate a malfunction in the system. Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
