Driving
COROLLA iM_U (OM12M42U)
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep a safe distance between you and
the vehicle ahead, and drive at a reduced speed suitable to road con-
ditions.
● Park the vehicle and move the shift lever to P (continuously variable
transmission), 1 or R (manual trans mission) without setting the park-
ing brake. The parking brake ma y freeze up, preventing it from
being released. If the vehicle is pa rked without setting the parking
brake, make sure to block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be dangerous because it may cause the vehi-
cle to move unexpectedly, pos sibly leading to an accident.
● Vehicles with a continuously variable transmission: If the vehicle is
parked without setting the parking br ake, confirm that the shift lever
cannot be moved out of P
*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is attempted to be shifted from P to any other position without depressing the brake pedal. If the shift lever can be
shifted from P, there may be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
Tire chains cannot be mounted.
Snow tires should be used instead.

NOTICE
■Driving with tire chains
Do not fit tire chains. Tire chains may damage the vehicle body and
adversely affect driving performance.
■ Repairing or replacing snow tires
Request repairs or replacement of snow tires from Toyota dealers or legiti-
mate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and attachment of snow tires affects the opera-
tion of the tire pressure warning valves and transmitters.
