Anti-lock braking system
(ABS) and electronic brake
force distribution (EBFD)
In emergency braking, press ver y firmly and maintain this pressure.
When changing wheels (tyres and rims), ensure that these are approved for your vehicle.Normal operation of the ABS may make itself felt by slight vibrations of the brake pedal.
The fixed illumination of this warning lamp indicates that there is a fault with the ABS.The vehicle retains conventional braking. Drive carefully at moderate speed.
When this warning lamp comes on, coupled with the STOP and ABS warning lamps, accompanied by an audible signal and a message, it indicates that there is a fault with the electronic brake force distribution (EBFD).You must stop as soon as it is safe to do so.In both cases, have the system checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional as soon as possible.
Intelligent traction control
If fitted to your vehicle, it has a system to help driving on snow: intelligent traction control.This system detects situations of difficult sur face adhesion that could make it difficult to move off or make progress on deep fresh snow or compacted snow.In these situations, intelligent traction control limits the amount of wheel slip to provide the best traction and trajectory control for your vehicle.
The use of snow tyres is strongly recommended on sur faces offering low levels of grip.

This mode, when moving off, allows considerable spin on the wheel with the least grip to optimise clearing of the mud and regain grip. At the same time, the wheel with the most grip is controlled in such a way as to transmit
as much torque as possible.When moving, the system optimises wheel spin to respond to the driver's requirements as fully as possible.(mode active up to 50 mph (80 km/h))
F Place the knob in this position.
This mode allows little spin on the two driving wheels at the same time to allow the vehicle to move for ward and limit the risks of getting stuck in the sand.(mode active up to 75 mph (120 km/h))
F Place the knob in this position.
Do not use the other modes on sand as the vehicle may become stuck.
You can deactivate certain functions of the ESC (ASR and DSC) by turning the knob to the "OFF" position.These functions are reactivated automatically from 30 mph (50 km/h) or every time the ignition is switched back on.

Driving advice
Your vehicle is designed principally to drive on tarmac roads but it allows you to drive on other less passable terrain occasionally.However, it does not permit off-road driving such as:- crossing and driving on terrain which could damage the underbody or strip away components (fuel pipe, fuel cooler...) due to obstacles or stones in particular,- driving on terrain with steep gradients and poor grip,- crossing a stream.

F Turn the key to position 2, ignition on, to operate the engine pre-heating.
F Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel then operate the starter motor by turning the key to position 3 until the engine starts, without pressing the accelerator. Once the engine starts, release the key.
The warning lamp does not come on if the engine is already warm. Depending on the climatic conditions, it is recommended that you proceed as follows:- In temperate conditions, do not run the engine with the vehicle stationary to warm it up, but rather move off straight away and drive at
moderate engine speeds.- In wintry conditions, the pre-heater warning lamp will stay on for a longer period after switching on the ignition; wait until it goes off before starting.- In ver y severe wintr y conditions (temperature below -23°C), to ensure the correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle (engine and gearbox), leave the engine running for 4 minutes before moving off.Never leave the engine running in an enclosed area without adequate ventilation: internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide. Danger of intoxication and death.
If the engine does not start straight away, switch off the ignition.Wait a few moments before trying again. If the engine does not start after a few attempts, do not keep trying: you risk damaging the starter motor and the engine.Call on an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and
equipped professional.

The presence in the recognition zone of the remote control of the "Smart Entry & Start System" is essential.Never leave the vehicle with the engine running and with the remote control on your person.If the remote control leaves the recognition zone, a message is displayed.
Move the remote control into the zone to be able to start the engine.
If one of the starting conditions is not met, a message appears in the instrument panel screen. In some circumstances, it is necessary to turn the steering wheel slightly while pressing the "START/STOP" button
to assist unlocking of the steering; a message warns you when this is needed.
If the vehicle is not immobilised, the engine will not stop.
Switching off
F Immobilise the vehicle.
F With the remote control in the recognition zone, press the "START/STOP" button.
The engine stops and the steering column is locked.
Ignition on
(without starting)
With the ignition on, the system automatically goes into energy economy mode to maintain an adequate state of charge in the battery.
With the Smart Entry & Start System remote control inside the vehicle, pressing the "START/STOP" button, with no action on the pedals, allows the ignition to be switched on.This also allows the accessories to be used (for example: audio system, lighting...).
F Press the "START/STOP" button, the instrument panel comes on but the engine does not start.
F Press the button again to switch off the ignition and allow the vehicle to be locked.
To avoid any risk of jamming of the pedals:- only use mats which are suited to the fixings already present in the vehicle; these fixings must be used,- never fit one mat on top of another.The use of mats not approved by Toyota may inter fere with access to the pedals and hinder the operation of the cruise control / speed limiter.The mats approved by Toyota have two fixings located below the seat.

Gear shift indicator
Depending on the driving situation and your vehicle's equipment, the system may advise you to skip one or more gears.You can follow this instruction without going through the intermediate gears.
- You press the accelerator pedal.
- You are in third gear.
- The system may suggest that you engage a higher gear.
The information appears in the instrument panel in the form of an arrow.On vehicles with manual gearbox, the arrow may be accompanied by the recommended g e a r.
The system adapts its gear change recommendation according to the driving conditions (gradient, load, ...) and the demands of the driver (power, acceleration, braking, ...).The system never suggests:
- engaging first gear,- engaging reverse gear.
System which reduces fuel consumption by recommending the most suitable gear.
Example:
On certain Diesel versions with manual gearbox, the system may suggest changing into neutral (N is displayed in the instrument panel) so that the engine can go into standby (STOP mode with Stop & Start), in certain driving conditions.
This function cannot be deactivated.
The gear engagement recommendations must not be considered compulsory.This is because the configuration of
the road, traffic density and safety remain impor tant factors in the choice of the best gear.The gear shift indicator system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
