Temporary manual control of gear changes
You can temporarily take control of gear changes using the "+" and "-" steering mounted control paddles. The gear change instruction is acted on if the engine speed permits.This function allows you to anticipate certain situations, such as overtaking another vehicle or approaching a bend in the road.Following a few moments with no action on the control paddles, the gearbox returns to
automatic operation.
Manual operation
AUTO disappears and the gears engaged are displayed successively in the instrument panel.
F After starting the engine, select position M for sequential gear changing
The change from one gear to another takes place only if the conditions of vehicles speed and engine speed permit; if not, the automatic operation
laws are applied temporarily.
F Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted control paddle.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator during gear changes.When braking or slowing down, the gearbox changes down automatically to allow the vehicle to accelerate in the correct gear.
On sharp acceleration, the gearbox will not change up unless the driver acts on the steering mounted paddles.Never select neutral N when drivingOnly engage reverse R with the vehicle stationary and your foot on the brake.

Stop & StartGoing into engine
STOP mode
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, its speed must be below 12 mph (20 km/h) or stationary (depending on engine); the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on in the instrument panel and the engine goes into standby automatically when you place the gear lever in neutral and you release the clutch pedal.
For your comfort, during parking manoeuvres, STOP mode is not available for a few seconds after coming out of reverse gear.Stop & Start does not affect the functionality of the vehicle, such as for example, braking, power steering...A slight delay between the vehicle stopping and the engine cutting out may be noticed.
If your vehicle is fitted with Stop & Start, a time counter calculates the time spent in
STOP mode during a journey.It resets to zero every time the ignition is switched on.
Stop & Start time counter
The Stop & Start system puts the engine temporarily into standby - STOP mode - during stops in the traffic (red lights, traffic jams, or other...). The engine restarts automatically - START mode - as soon as you want to move off. The restart takes place instantly, quickly and silently.Per fect for urban use, the Stop & Start system reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions as well as the noise level when stationary.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox and the vehicle is stationary, the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on and the engine goes into standby automatically when you press the brake pedal or place the gear selector in position N.
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox and the vehicle's speed is below 5 mph (8 km/h), the "ECO" indicator lamp comes on and the engine goes into standby automatically when you press the brake pedal or place the gear selector in position N.
(minutes / seconds or hours / minutes)
Never refuel with the engine in STOP mode; you must switch off the ignition with the button.

Going into engine
START mode
START mode is invoked automatically in certain temporary conditions (examples: battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance, air conditioning setting) to assure correct operation of the system and mainly when:- you open the driver's door,- you open a sliding side door,- you unfasten the driver's seat belt,- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 15 mph (25 km/h) or 2 mph (3 km/h) (depending on the engine) with a manual gearbox,- the speed of the vehicle exceeds 2 mph (3 km/h) with an automatic gearbox,
Special cases: START invoked automatically
In this case the "ECO" warning lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.
If your vehicle has a manual gearbox, the "ECO" indicator lamp goes off in the instrument panel and the engine restarts automatically when you fully depress the clutch pedal.
If your vehicle has an automatic gearbox, the "ECO" lamp goes off in the instrument panel
and the engine restarts automatically when:- you release the brake pedal with the gear selector in position D or M,- you are in position N with the brake pedal released and you move the gear selector to position D or M,- you engage reverse.
If your vehicle has an electronic gearbox, the "ECO" lamp goes off in the instrument panel and the engine restarts automatically when:- you release the brake pedal with the gear selector in position A or M,- you are in position N with the brake pedal released and you move the gear selector to position A or M,- you enegage reverse.
Special cases: STOP mode not available
STOP mode is not invoked in certain temporary conditions (examples: battery charge, engine temperature, braking assistance, ambient temperature) to assure correct operation of the system and mainly when:- the vehicle is on a steep slope (rising or falling),- the driver's door is open,- a sliding side door is open,- the driver's seat belt is not fastened,- the vehicle has not exceeded 6 mph (10 km/h) since the last engine start by the driver,- the electric parking brake is applied or being applied,- the engine is needed to maintain a comfortable temperature in the passenger compartment,- demisting is active.
In this case, the "ECO" warning lamp flashes for a few seconds then goes off.
This operation is perfectly normal.

Operating fault
Depending on your vehicle's equipment:
Have it checked by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.In the event of a fault in STOP mode, the vehicle may stall.All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on.Depending on version, an alert message may also be displayed, asking you to place the gear lever in position N and put your foot on the brake pedal.With the vehicle stationary, you must switch off the ignition and then start the engine again.
The Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery with a special specification and technology.
The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.
In the event of a fault with the system, this warning lamp flashes in the instrument panel.All work on this type of battery must be done by an authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified and equipped professional.
For more information on the 12 V batter y, refer to the corresponding section.

Road Sign Assist
This system allows the speed limit detected by the camera to be displayed in the instrument panel.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 as you pass a speed limit sign intended for cars (light vehicles).
Principles
Depending on equipment, the system takes account of speed limit information from the navigation system mapping.
The units for the speed limits (mph or km/h) depend on the country you are driving in.It should be taken into account so that you obser ve the speed limit.For the system to operate correctly when you change country, the units for
speed in the instrument panel must be those for the country you are driving in.
Depending on equipment, using a camera at the top of the windscreen, this system detects and reads speed limit and end of speed limit signs.
Depending on equipment, the system takes account of the camera and information from the navigation system mapping.
To maintain correct operation of the system: regularly clean the area in front of the camera.
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving assistance 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 cannot in any circumstances replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.The driver must observe the driving regulations and must adapt the speed of the vehicle to suit the weather and traffic.It is possible for the system to not display the speed limit if it does not detect a speed limit sign within a preset period.The system is designed to detect signs that conform to the Vienna Convention on road signs.
For the speed limit information given by the navigation system to be correct, your mapping software must be regularly updated.

Speed limiter ("LIMIT")
System which prevents the vehicle from exceeding the speed programmed by the driver.
The speed limiter cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need to obser ve speed limits, nor can it replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.
Once the programmed speed limit is reached, additional pressure on the accelerator pedal has no effect.
