NOTIC E
In manual mode, there is no need to release the accelerator pedal while changing gear.
NOTIC E
It is only possible to change from one gear to another if the vehicle speed and engine speed permit.
NOTIC E
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then the gear actually engaged is shown.When the vehicle is stationary or moving very slowly, the gearbox automatically selects gear M1.
NOTIC E
To preserve the brakes while descending a steep incline, use engine braking to reduce
your speed (change down or select a lower gear).Keeping the brake pedal pressed continuously for long periods can overheat the brakes, with the risk of damaging the braking system or making it inoperative.Only use the brakes when necessary, to slow or stop the vehicle.
NOTIC E
Depending on the road configuration (e.g. mountainous road), manual operation may be preferable.Automatic operation may not always be suitable, and does not enable engine braking.
Invalid value during manual
operation
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not engaged correctly (gear selector between two positions).► Place the selector "correctly" at a position.
Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, select position P then apply the parking brake to immobilise the vehicle.
NOTIC E
A point of resistance may be noticed when moving to position P.If the selector is not in position P when the driver's door is opened or approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is switched off, an audible signal sounds and a message appears.► Return the gear selector to position P; the audible signal stops and the message disappears.
WARNI NG
On a steep slope with a loaded vehicle, press the brake pedal, select position P, apply the parking brake then release the brake pedal.
WARNI NG
In all circumstances, ensure that the selector is in position P before leaving your vehicle.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message appears in the instrument panel screen to indicate a
gearbox fault.In this case, the gearbox switches to back-up mode and is locked in 3rd gear. You may feel a substantial knock when changing from P to R

and from N to R. This will not cause any damage to the gearbox.Do not exceed 100 km/h (60 mph), local speed restrictions permitting.Have it checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
WARNI NG
There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
– if you press the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time (braking or acceleration must be done only with the right foot),– if you force the selector from position P to another position when the battery is flat.
EC O
To reduce fuel consumption when stationary for long periods with the engine running (traffic jam, etc.), position the selector on N and apply the parking brake.
WARNI NG
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, do not try to start the engine by pushing the vehicle.
Gear efficiency indicator
(Depending on engine.)This system helps reduce fuel consumption by recommending the most appropriate gear.
Operation
Depending on the driving situation and the vehicle's equipment, the system may advise to skip one or more gears.Gear shift recommendations should not be considered compulsory. In fact, the road layout, the traffic density and safety remain the deciding factors when choosing the best gear. The driver therefore remains responsible for deciding whether or not to follow the indications issued by the system.This function cannot be deactivated.
NOTIC E
With an automatic gearbox, the system is only active in manual operation.
The information appears in the instrument panel, in the form of an ascending or descending arrow and the recommended gear.
NOTIC E
The system adapts its gear shift recommendation according to the driving conditions (slope, load, etc.) and the driver’s
requirements (power, acceleration, braking, etc.).The system never suggests:– engaging first gear;– engaging reverse.
Stop & Start
The Stop & Start function puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during phases when the vehicle is stopped (red lights, queues, etc.). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as the driver wishes to move off again.Primarily designed for urban use, the function is intended to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.The function does not affect the functionalities of the vehicle, in particular the braking.
WARNI NG
Opening the bonnetBefore doing anything under the bonnet, deactivate the Stop & Start system to avoid any risk of injury caused by the engine restarting automatically.

NOTIC E
During parking manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear or turning the steering wheel.
Restarting the engine (START mode)
The engine automatically restarts as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again.– With a manual gearbox: with the clutch pedal fully depressed.– With an automatic gearbox:• With the selector in position D or M: with the brake pedal released.• With the selector in position N and the brake pedal released: with the selector at D or M.• With the selector in position P and the brake pedal depressed: with the selector at R, N, D or M.
Special cases
The engine will restart automatically if all conditions for operation are met again and in the following case.– Speed of the vehicle exceeds 3 km/h (2 mph) (depending on the engine).In this case, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this warning lamp flashes on the instrument panel.The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.Have the vehicle checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on if there is a fault.Depending on version, a warning message may also be displayed, prompting you to place the gear selector in position N and depress the brake pedal.► Switch off the ignition then start the engine again with the key or the "START/STOP" button.
WARNI NG
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and specification.All work concerning the battery must be carried out only by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Under-inflation detection
This system automatically checks the pressures of the tyres while driving.It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one or more tyres.
WARNI NG
Under-inflation detection does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) as well as before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):– worsens road-holding.– lengthens braking distances.– causes premature wear of the tyres.– increases fuel consumption.

RadarThe operation of the radar as well as the associated functions may be impaired through the accumulation of dirt (mud, frost, etc.), in certain difficult weather conditions (very heavy rain, snow) or if the bumper is damaged.If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop; certain types of paint could interfere with the operation of the radar.
WARNI NG
Driving aids cameraThis camera and its associated functions may be impaired or not work if the windscreen area in front of the camera is dirty, misty, frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked by a sticker.On versions with camera alone, this message indicates to you that the camera is obstructed: "Driving aids camera: visibility limited, see user guide".In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also impair detection performance.In the event of a windscreen replacement, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop to recalibrate the camera;
otherwise, the operation of the associated driving aids may be disrupted.
NOTIC E
Other camerasThe images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen or on the instrument panel may be distorted by the relief.
In the presence of areas in shade, or in conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate lighting, the image may be darkened and with lower contrast.Obstacles may appear further away than they actually are.
WARNI NG
SensorsThe operation of the sensors as well as the associated functions may be disturbed by sound interference such as that emitted by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries, pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of snow or dead leaves on the road or in the event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.When reverse gear is engaged, an audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.A front or rear impact to the vehicle can upset the sensors’ settings, which is not
always detected by the system: distance measurements may be distorted.The sensors do not systematically detect obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs) or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind spots may not be detected or may no longer be detected during the manoeuvre.Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound waves: pedestrians may not be detected.

Units of speed
Ensure that the units of speed displayed on the instrument panel (km/h or mph) are those for the country you are driving in.If this is not the case, when the vehicle is stationary, set the display to the required units of speed so that it complies with what is authorised locally.In case of doubt, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system displays the maximum authorised speed in the instrument panel, according to the speed limits in the country in which you are driving, using:– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.– Speed limit details from the navigation system mapping.
WARNI NG
Navigation mapping should be regularly updated in order to receive accurate speed limit information from the system.
– Signs indicating an intersection area detected by the camera.

WARNI NG
The units for the speed limit (km/h or mph) depend on the country you are driving in.This should be taken into account so that you observe the speed limit.For the system to work correctly when changing country, the speed unit in the instrument panel must correspond to that of the country you are driving in.
WARNI NG
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always display speed limits correctly.The speed limit signs present on the road always take priority over the display by the system. The system is designed to detect signs that conform to the Vienna Convention on road signs.
NOTIC E
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.The display of the speed limit in the instrument panel is updated when passing a speed limit sign intended for cars (light vehicles).
