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. 263)
• Disable the pre-crash safety system. ( P. 262)
■ 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
dynamometer or speedometer tester , or when using an on vehicle wheel
balancer
● 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. 468, 487)
● When tires of a size other than specified are installed
● When tire chains are installed

AVENSIS_OM_OM20C79E_(EE)■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. 394, 401)
• When driving in conditions where the front sensor cannot detect an
object, such as in the dark (at night on a road without street lights or other
lights, etc.), when bright light is shining into the sensor, or in snow or fog.
• 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 retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer immediately.
■If VSC is disabled
●If TRC and VSC are disabled (P. 308), the pre-crash brake assist and pre-
crash braking functions are also disabled. However, the pre-crash warning
function will still operate.

■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
seconds 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 system is in use, it may be difficult
to hear the warning sound.
■After the vehicle has been parked in the sun
The LDA may not be available and a warning message (P. 544) will be dis-
played for a while after driving has started. When the temperature in the cabin
decreases and the temperature around the front sensor (P. 272) 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.

AVENSIS_OM_OM20C79E_(EE)■When to use the Stop & Start system
●If the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system and the shift lever is
shifted into a position other than N with the clutch pedal released, a buzzer
will sound and Stop & Start indicator will flash. This indicates that the engine
is only stopped by the Stop & Start system, not that the engine has been
turned off completely.
●Use the Stop & Start system when stopping the vehicle temporarily at red
lights, intersections, etc. When stopping the vehicle for a longer period of
time, turn off the engine completely.
●When the system cannot operate, is canceled, or is malfunctioning, warning
messages and the warning buzzer are used to inform the driver. (P. 539)
●Vehicles with smart entry and start system: Even if the engine switch is
pressed during an engine stop, the engine does not restart. Start the engine
by shifting the shift lever to N and performing a normal engine start opera-
tion.
●When the engine restarts after having been stopped by the Stop & Start sys-
tem, the power outlet may be temporarily unusable, but this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
●Installation and removal of electrical components and wireless devices may
affect the Stop & Start system, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or
Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■If the windshield is fogged up while the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system
Turn the windshield defogger on. (The engine will start due to the automatic
engine start function.) (P. 394, 401)
If the windshield fogs up frequently, press the Stop & Start cancel switch to
deactivate the system.
■Air conditioning system while the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start
system (vehicles with an air conditioning system)
While the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the air conditioning
system (cooling, heating and dehumidifying functions) is cancelled and it only
blows air or stops blowing air. In order to prevent the air conditioning system
from being cancelled, deactivate the Stop & Start system by pressing the Stop
& Start cancel switch.
