17Vehicle data recordings Your Toyota is equipped with several sophisticated computers th at will record
certain data, such as:
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
The recorded data varies according to the vehicle grade level and options
with which it is equipped. These computers do not record conver sations or
sounds, and only record images outside of the vehicle in certai n situations.
● Data Transmission
Your vehicle may transmit the data recorded in these computers to Toyota
without notification to you.
● Data usage
Toyota may use the data recorded in these computers to diagnose malfunc-
tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party exc ept:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of t he lessee if
the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of l aw or a govern-
ment agency
• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or
vehicle owner

Vehicles with an auto matic transmission
Make sure that the parking brake is set and shift the shift lev er
to D.

● Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and the road will be slippery.
● Drive carefully when it starts to rain, because the road surfac e will be
especially slippery.
● Refrain from high speeds when driving on an expressway in the r ain,
because there may be a layer of water between the tires and the road
surface, preventing the steering and brakes from operating prop erly.STEP 1

1562-1. Driving procedures
■ After the engine starts
In order to secure a rich exhaust sound when starting the vehicle and envi-
ronmental performance, air intake and exhaust sounds become lou d and
vibrations may increase for a little while after the engine starts. This is not a
malfunction.
■ Operating your vehicle in a foreign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle registration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( P. 461)
■ REV indicator
WARNING■ When starting the vehicle (vehicl es with an automatic transmission)
● Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine
running. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
● Firmly depress the brake pedal because engine speed may increas e
immediately after starting the engine, when the air conditionin g system is
operating, when turning the steering wheel, etc., thereby causi ng creeping
to become stronger. Apply the parking brake as necessary. When the set engine speed is reached
the REV indicator comes on and a buzzer
sounds to inform the driver.
( P. 204, 217)
(When the engine speed enters the red
zone, the REV indicator flashes regard-
less of settings.)
