Driving recommendations
► Observe the driving regulations and remain vigilant whatever the traffic conditions.► Monitor your environment and keep your hands on the wheel to be able to react to anything that may happen any time.► Drive smoothly, anticipate the need for braking and maintain a longer safety distance, especially in bad weather.► Stop the vehicle to carry out operations that require close attention (such as adjustments).► During long trips, take a break every two hours.
Important!
WARNI NG
Never leave the engine running in a closed space without sufficient ventilation. Internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases such as carbon monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
WARNI NG
In very severe wintry conditions (temperature below -23°C), let the engine run for 4 minutes
before moving off, to ensure the correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of your vehicle (engine and gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never drive with the parking brake applied. Risk of overheating and damaging the braking system!
WARNI NG
Do not park the vehicle or leave the engine
running on a flammable surface (e.g. dry grass, dead leaves).The vehicle exhaust system is very hot, even several minutes after the engine stops. Risk of fire!
WARNI NG
Never leave a vehicle unattended with the engine running. If you have to leave your vehicle with the engine running, apply the parking brake and put the gearbox into neutral or position N or P (depending on the type of gearbox).
WARNI NG
Never leave children inside the vehicle unsupervised.
WARNI NG
Never drive on surfaces covered with vegetation (tall grass, accumulation of dead leaves, harvest, remains) such as a field, a bushy countryside path, a road's shoulder.These plants may come into contact with the vehicle's exhaust system or some systems that are very hot. Risk of fire!
On flooded roads
We strongly advise against driving on flooded roads, as this could cause serious damage to the engine or gearbox, as well as to the electrical systems of your vehicle.

If you are obliged to drive on a flooded road:► check that the depth of water does not exceed 15 cm (0 ft 5”), taking account of waves that might be generated by other users,► deactivate the Stop & Start function,► drive as slowly as possible without stalling. In all cases, do not exceed 10 km/h (6 mph),► do not stop and do not switch off the engine.

100
On leaving the flooded road, as soon as safety conditions allow, make several light brake applications to dry the brake discs and pads.If in doubt about the state of your vehicle, contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
In case of towing
WARNI NG
Driving with a trailer places greater demands on the towing vehicle and requires extra care from the driver.
NOTIC E
Respect the maximum towable weights.At altitude: reduce the maximum load by 10% per 1,000 metres (3,280 ft) of altitude; the density of the air decreases with altitude and the performance of the engine reduces.
WARNI NG
New vehicle: do not pull a trailer before having driven at least 1,000 kilometres (620 miles).
NOTIC E
If the outside temperature is high, let the engine idle for 1 to 2 minutes after the vehicle comes to a stop, to help it to cool.
Before setting off
Nose weight
► Distribute the load in the trailer so that the heaviest items are as close as possible to the axle and the nose weight (at the point where it joins your vehicle) approaches the maximum permitted without exceeding it.
Tyres
► Check the tyre pressures of the towing vehicle and of the trailer, observing the recommended pressures.
Lighting
► Check the electrical signalling on the trailer and the headlamp beam height of your vehicle.
NOTIC E
If a genuine TOYOTA towing device is used, the rear parking sensors will be deactivated automatically to avoid the audible signal.
When driving
Cooling
Towing a trailer uphill increases the temperature of the coolant. The maximum towable load depends on the gradient and the exterior temperature. The cooling capacity of the fan does not increase with engine speed.► Reduce speed and lower the engine speed, so as to limit the heating-up.In all cases, pay attention to the coolant temperature.If this warning lamp and the STOP warning lamp come on, stop the vehicle and switch off the engine as soon as possible.
Brakes
Braking distances are increased when towing a trailer. To avoid overheating of the brakes, the use of engine braking is recommended.
Side wind
Bear in mind the increased susceptibility to the wind that the vehicle will have.

Temporary manual control
of gear changes
You can temporarily assume control of gear changing using the "+" et "-” steering-mounted controls. The gear change request will be executed 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. After a few seconds with no inputs via the control paddles, the gearbox reverts to automatic operation.
Creeping (moving without
using the accelerator)
This function facilitates manoeuvring of the vehicle at low speed (when parking, in traffic jams, etc.).When the engine is at idle, with the parking brake released and gear position D, M or R selected, the vehicle begins to creep forward as soon as you take your foot off the brake pedal
(even without pressing the accelerator).
WARNI NG
As a safety precaution, never leave the vehicle with the engine running and the doors closed.
Manual operation
► With the selector in position D, press button M to enable 6-speed sequential gear changing.The indicator lamp for the button comes on.► Operate the "+" or "-" steering mounted controls. M appears and the engaged gears are shown in succession on the instrument panel.► You can revert to automatic operation at any time by pressing button M again.The indicator lamp for the button goes off.
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.

Frequently asked
questions
The following information groups together the answers to the most frequently asked questions concerning your audio system.With the engine off, the audio system switches off after a few minutes of use.When the engine is switched off, the audio system operating time depends on the state of charge of the battery.The switch-off is normal: the audio system switches to economy mode and switches off to avoid discharging the vehicle's battery.► Start the vehicle’s engine to increase the charge of the battery.The message "the audio system is overheated" is displayed onscreen.To protect the installation if the ambient temperature is too high, the audio system switches to an automatic thermal protection mode, in which the volume may be decreased or the CD player stopped.
► Switch the audio system off for a few minutes to allow the system to cool.
Radio
There is a difference in sound quality between the different audio sources (radio, CD, etc.).For optimal listening quality, the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience and Loudness) can be adjusted to different audio sources, resulting in audible differences when switching between sources (radio, CD, etc.).► Check that the audio settings (Volume, Bass, Treble, Ambience and Loudness) are appropriate to the sources being listened to. We recommend setting the audio functions (Bass, Treble, Fr-Re balance and Le-Ri balance) to the middle position, setting the musical ambience to "None", setting loudness correction to "Active" in CD mode and "Inactive" in Radio mode.The preset stations do not function (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed, etc.).The wrong waveband is selected.► Press the BAND button to return to the waveband (FM, FM2, DAB, AM) on which the
stations are preset.Traffic announcement (TA) is shown but I receive no traffic information.The radio station is not part of the regional traffic information network.► Tune to a radio station that broadcasts traffic information.The reception quality of the tuned radio station gradually deteriorates or the station
presets are inoperative (no sound, 87.5 MHz is displayed, etc.).The vehicle is too far from the selected station’s transmitter, or no transmitter is present in the geographical area.► Activate the RDS function to allow the system to check for a more powerful transmitter in the area.The environment (hills, buildings, tunnels, basement car parks, etc.) may block reception, including in RDS mode.This is a perfectly normal phenomenon, and is not indicative of an audio system malfunction.The aerial is absent or has been damaged (for example when going through an automatic car wash or in an underground car park).► Have the aerial checked by a dealer.The sound intermittently cuts out for 1 or 2 seconds in radio mode.During this brief sound cut-out, the RDS searches for another frequency giving better reception of the station.► Switch off the RDS function if the
phenomenon occurs too frequently and always on the same route.
Media
The Bluetooth connection is cut.The battery in the peripheral device may not be sufficiently charged.► Charge the battery in the peripheral device.The message "USB device error" is displayed
in the screen.
