Driving
■Enabling/disabling the 
pre-collision system
The pre-collision system can be 
enabled/disabled on   
( P.548) of the multi-informa-
tion display.
The system is automatically 
enabled each time the engine 
switch is turned to ON.
If the system is disabled, the 
PCS warning light will turn on 
and a message will be displayed 
on the multi-information display.
■Changing the pre-collision 
warning timing
The pre-collision warning timing 
can be changed on   
( P.548) of the multi-informa-
tion display.
The warning timing setting is 
retained when the engine switch is 
turned off. However, if the pre-colli-
sion system is disabled and 
re-enabled, the operation timing will 
return to the default setting (mid-
dle).
WARNING
●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 speed-
ometer tester, or when using an 
on vehicle wheel balancer
●When a strong impact is applied 
to the front bumper or front 
grille, due to an accident or 
other reasons
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in 
a stable manner, such as when 
the vehicle has been in an acci-
dent or is malfunctioning
●When the vehicle is driven in a 
sporty manner or off-road
●When the tires are not properly 
inflated
●When the tires are very worn
●When tires of a size other than 
specified are installed
●When tire chains are installed
●When a compact spare tire or 
an emergency tire puncture 
repair kit is used
●If equipment (snow plow, etc.) 
that may obstruct the radar sen-
sor or front camera is temporar-
ily installed to the vehicle

WARNING
■When using the rear view 
monitor system 
The rear view monitor system is a 
supplemental device intended to 
assist the driver when backing up. 
When backing up, be sure to visu-
ally check all around the vehicle 
both directly and using the mirrors 
before proceeding. Observe the 
following precautions to avoid an 
accident that could result in death 
or serious injuries.
●Never depend on the rear view 
monitor system entirely when 
backing up. The image and the 
position of the guide lines dis-
played on the screen may differ 
from the actual state. Use cau-
tion, just as you would when 
backing up any vehicle.
●Be sure to back up slowly, 
depressing the brake pedal to 
control vehicle speed.
●The instructions given are only 
guide lines. When and how 
much to turn the steering wheel 
will vary according to traffic con-
ditions, road surface condi-
tions, vehicle condition, etc. 
when parking. It is necessary to 
be fully aware of this before 
using the rear view monitor sys-
tem. 
●When parking, be sure to check 
that the parking space will 
accommodate your vehicle 
before maneuvering into it.
●Do not use the rear view moni-
tor system in the following 
cases:
• On icy or slick road surfaces, or  in snow
• When using tire chains or emer- gency tires
• When the trunk is not closed  completely
• On roads that are not flat or  straight, such as curves or 
slopes
●In low temperatures, the screen 
may darken or the image may 
become faint. The image could 
distort when the vehicle is mov-
ing, or you may become unable 
to see the image on the screen. 
Be sure to visually check all 
around the vehicle both directly 
and using the mirrors before 
proceeding.
●If the tire sizes are changed, the 
position of the fixed guide lines 
displayed on the screen may 
change.
●The camera uses a special lens. 
The distances between objects 
and pedestrians that appear in 
the image displayed on the 
screen will differ from the actual 
distances. ( P.243)
NOTICE
■How to use the camera
●The rear view monitor system 
may not operate properly in the 
following cases.
• If the back of the vehicle is hit,  the position and mounting angle 
of the camera may change.
• As the camera has a water  proof construction, do not 
detach, disassemble or modify 
it. This may cause incorrect 
operation.

■Illuminated entry system
The lights automatically turn on/off 
according to the engine switch 
mode (position), the presence of the 
electronic key (vehicles with a smart 
key system), whether the doors are 
locked/unlocked, and whether the 
doors are opened/closed.
■To prevent the battery from 
being discharged
If the interior lights remain on when 
the engine switch is turned off, the 
lights will go off automatically after 
20 minutes.
■The interior lights may turn on 
automatically when
If any of the SRS airbags deploy 
(inflate) or in the event of a strong 
rear impact, the interior lights will 
turn on automatically.
The interior light s will turn off auto-
matically after approximately 20 
minutes.
The interior lights can be turned off 
manually. However, in order to help 
prevent further collisions, it is rec-
ommended that they be left on until 
safety can be ensured.
(The interior lights may not turn on 
automatically depending on the 
force of the impact and conditions of 
the collision.)
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.

Maintenance and care
Front
To equalize tire wear and extend 
tire life, Toyota recommends that 
tire rotation is carried out at the 
same interval as tire inspection.
Vehicles with a tire pressure warn-
ing system: Do not  fail to initialize 
the tire pressure warning system 
after tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a 
tire pressure warning system 
that uses tire pressure warning 
valves and transmitters to detect 
low tire inflation pressure before 
serious problems arise.
If the tire pressure drops below 
a predetermined level, the driver 
is warned by a warning light. 
( P.485)
■Routine tire inflation pressure 
checks
The tire pressure warning system 
does not replace routine tire inflation 
pressure checks. Make sure to 
check tire inflation pressure as part 
of your routine of daily vehicle 
checks.
■Situations in which the tire 
pressure warning system may 
not operate properly
●In the following cases, the tire 
pressure warning system may not 
operate properly.
• If non-genuine Toyota wheels are  used.
• A tire has been replaced with a  tire that is not an OE (Original 
Equipment) tire.
• A tire has been replaced with a  tire that is not of  the specified size.
• Tire chains, etc. are equipped.
• An auxiliary-sup ported run-flat tire 
is equipped.
• If a window tint that affects the 
radio wave signals is installed.
• If there is a lot of snow or ice on  the vehicle, particularly around the 
wheels or wheel housings.
• If the tire inflation pressure is  extremely higher than the speci-
fied level.
• If tires not equipped with tire pres- sure warning valv es and transmit-
ters are used.
• If the ID code on the tire pressure  warning valves and transmitters is 
not registered in the tire pressure 
warning computer.
●Performance may be affected in 
the following situations.
• Near a TV tower, electric power 
plant, gas station, radio station, 
large display, airport or other facil-
ity that generates strong radio 
waves or electrical noise.
• When carrying a portable radio,  cellular phone, cordless phone or 
other wireless communication 
device.
●When the vehicle is parked, the 
time taken for the warning to start 
or go off could be extended.
●When tire inflation pressure 
declines rapidly for example when 
a tire has burst, the warning may 
not function.
