Driver Attention Alert
The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:- engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes,- the ignition has been switched off for a few minutes,- the driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is open.
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 40 mph (65 km/h), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 40 mph (65 km/h).
The system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Do not take the wheel if you are tired.
The system triggers an alert once it detects that the driver has not taken a break after two hours of driving at a speed above 40 mph (65 km/h).
It is recommended that you take a break as soon as you feel tired or at least every two hours.Depending on version, the vehicle either has the "Driving time warning system" only, or this combined with the "Driver Attention Alert".
Driving time warning
Activation / Deactivation
This alert takes the form of the display of a message encouraging you to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.
With audio system or touch screen
Activation or deactivation is done in the vehicle configuration menu.

Using a camera placed at the top of the windscreen, the system assesses the driver's level of vigilance by identifying variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings.This system is particularly suited to fast roads (speed higher than 40 mph (65 km/h)).
Driver Attention Alert
Depending on version, the "Driving time warning system" may be combined with the "Driver Attention Alert".
The system cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.Do not drive if you are tired or taking medicines that can cause drowsiness.
Once the system considers that the behaviour of the vehicle suggests a certain level of fatigue or inattention by the driver, it triggers the first level of alert.
After three first level alerts, the system triggers a new alert with the message "Take a break!", accompanied by a more pronounced audible
signal.
In certain driving conditions (poor road sur face or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
The following situations may interfere with operation of the system or prevent it working:- poor visibility (inadequate lighting of the roadway, falling snow, heavy rain, dense fog, ...),- dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light, ...),- windscreen area located in front of the camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged or covered by a sticker,- lane markings absent, worn, masked (snow, mud) or multiple
(roadworks, ...),- close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected),- roads that are narrow, winding, ...
The driver is then alerted by the message "Ta k e c a r e !", accompanied by an audible signal.

Blind spot monitoring system
A warning lamp appears in the door mirror on the side in question:- immediately, when being overtaken,- after a delay of about one second, when overtaking a vehicle slowly.
This driving assistance system warns the driver of the presence of another vehicle in the blind spot angle of their vehicle (areas masked from the driver's field of vision), as soon as this presents a potential danger.
The alert is given by a warning lamp which comes on in the door mirror on the side in question as soon as a vehicle - car, lorry, bicycle - is detected and the following conditions are fulfilled:- all the vehicles must be moving in the same direction and on adjacent lanes,- the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph (12 and 140 km/h),- when you overtake a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph (10 km/h),- when a vehicle overtakes you with a speed difference of less than 15 mph (25 km/h),- the traffic must be flowing normally,- in the case of an overtaking manoeuvre, if this is prolonged and the vehicle being overtaken returns to the blind spot,- you are driving on a straight or slightly curved road,- your vehicle is not pulling a trailer, a caravan...
This system is designed to improve safety when driving and is in no circumstances a substitute for the use of the interior rear view mirror and door mirrors. It is the driver's responsibility to constantly check the traffic, to assess the distances and relative speeds of other vehicles and to predict their movements before deciding whether to change lane.The blind spot sensor system does not replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.

No alert will be given in the following situations:- in the presence of immobile objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs...),- with vehicles moving in the opposite direction,- driving on a winding road or in a sharp c o r n e r,
- when overtaking (or being overtaken by) a very long vehicle (lorry, coach...) which is at the same time detected at the rear in the blind spot angle and present in the driver's forward field of vision,- in very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorry or an immobile object,- when overtaking quickly.

Operating fault
Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail...).In particular, driving on a wet sur face or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle).In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper the correct operation of the system.
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
With the touch screen
In the event of a fault, these warning lamps flash.

of the sensors as other wise there is a risk of damaging them.

This system indicates the proximity of an obstacle (examples: pedestrian, vehicle, tree, gate) which comes within the field of detection of sensors located in the bumper.Certain types of obstacle (examples: stake, roadworks cone) detected initially will no longer be detected at the end of the manoeuvre, if they are located in blind spots in the sensors' field of detection.
Parking sensors
The system is switched on by engaging reverse g e a r.This is confirmed by an audible signal.The system is switched off when you come out of reverse gear.
Audible assistance
Rear parking sensors
This supplements the audible signal by displaying bars in the screen or the instrument panel which move progressively nearer to the vehicle. When the obstacle is near, the "Danger" symbol is displayed.
Visual assistance
This system cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
The proximity information is given by an intermittent audible signal, the frequency of which increases as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.The sound emitted by the speaker (right or left) indicates the side on which the obstacle is located.When the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle becomes less than approximately thirty centimetres, the audible signal becomes continuous.

Front parking sensors
As an addition to the rear parking sensors, the front parking sensors are triggered when an obstacle is detected in front and the speed of the vehicle is still below 6 mph (10 km/h).The front parking sensors are interrupted if the vehicle stops for more than three seconds in for ward gear, if no further obstacles are detected or when the speed of the vehicle exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Deactivation / Activation
Deactivation or activation of the system is done via the vehicle configuration menu.
The sound from the speakers (front or rear) indicates whether the obstacle is in front or behind.
The system will be automatically deactivated where a towbar or towbar-mounted bicycle carrier is fitted (vehicle fitted with a towbar installed as recommended by a Toyota dealer).
