■Opening the moon roof
● Do not allow any passengers to put their hands or heads outside the vehi-
cle while it is moving.
● Do not sit on top of the moon roof.
■ Closing the moon roof
● The driver is responsible for moon roof opening and closing operations.

child operate the moon roof. It is possible for children and other passen-
gers to have body parts caught in the moon roof.
● When exiting the vehicle, turn the power switch off, carry the key and exit
the vehicle along with the child. There may be accidental operation, due to
mischief, etc., that may possibly lead to an accident.
■ Jam protection function
● Never use any part of your body to intentionally activate the jam protection
function.
● The jam protection function may not work if something gets caught just
before the moon roof is fully closed. Also, the jam protection function is not
designed to operate while the switch is being pressed. Take care so that
your fingers, etc. do not get caught.
●Check to make sure that all passengers
do not have any part of their body in a
position where it could be caught when
the moon roof is being operated.
● When using the wireless remote control
or mechanical key and operating the
moon roof, operate the moon roof after
checking to make sure that there is no
possibility of any passenger having any
of their body parts caught in the moon
roof. Also, do not let a child operate

tor pedal to accelerate the vehicle.
With the shift lever in D, depress the brake pedal.
If necessary, set the parking brake.
If the vehicle is to be stopped for an extended period of time, shift the shift
lever to P. ( →P. 213)
With the shift lever in D, depress the brake pedal.

Driving
■When starting off on an uphill
The hill-start assist control will activate. ( →P. 284)
■ For fuel-efficient driving
Keep in mind that hybrid vehicles are similar to conventional vehicles, and it
is necessary to refrain from activities such as sudden acceleration. ( →P. 335)
■ Coasting (Auto Glide Control)
When Eco drive mode is selected, under certain conditions, Auto Glide Con-
trol will operate automatically and allow the vehicle coast, enhancing fuel
economy. ( →P. 334)
■ Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the win-
dows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
● Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surface will be espe-
cially slippery.
● Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the rain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road sur-
face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■ Restraining hybrid system outp ut (Brake Override System)
● When the accelerator and brake pedals are depressed at the same time, the
hybrid system output may be restrained.
● A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the
system is operating.
■ ECO Accelerator Guidance ( →P. 117)
Eco-friendly driving may be achieved more easily by staying within the zone
of Eco acceleration. Also, by staying within the zone of Eco acceleration, it
will be easier to obtain a good Eco score.
● When starting off:
Gradually depress the accelerator pedal to stay within the zone of Eco accel-
eration and accelerate to the desired speed. By refraining from excessive
acceleration, a good eco start score will be obtained.
● When driving:
After accelerating to the desired speed, release the accelerator pedal and
drive at a stable speed while staying within the zone of Eco acceleration. By
staying within the zone of Eco acceleration, a good eco cruise score will be
obtained.
● When stopping:
By starting to release the accelerator pedal early before decelerating, a good
eco stop score will be obtained.

1924-1. Before driving
■Restraining sudden star t (Drive-Start Control)
● When the following unusual operation is performed, the hybrid system out-
put may be restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted from R to D, D to R, N to R, P to D, or P to
R (D includes S) with the accelerator pedal depressed, a warning mes-
sage appears on the multi-information display.
• When the accelerator pedal is depressed too much while the vehicle is in
reverse.
● While Drive-Start Control is being activated, your vehicle may have trouble
escaping from the mud or fresh snow. In such case, deactivate TRAC ( →P.
284) to cancel Drive-Start Control so that the vehicle may become able to
escape from the mud or fresh snow.
■ Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 186 miles (300 km):
Avoid sudden stops.
● For the first 621 miles (1000 km):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for extended periods.
■ Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( →P. 528)
■ Eco-friendly driving
