WARNING
■Caution for use while driving
●When operating the multi-informa- tion display while driving, pay extra
attention to the safety of the area around the vehicle.
●Do not look continuously at the multi-information display while driv-ing as you may fail to see pedestri-
ans, objects on the road, etc., ahead of the vehicle.

WARNING
■When shifting the shift lever
●Do not let the vehicle roll backward
while a forward driving position is selected, or roll forward while the shift lever is in R.
Doing so may result in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
●Do not shift the shift lever to P while the vehicle is moving.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do no t sh i ft t h e sh if t l e ve r t o R whi l e the vehicle is moving forward.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to a driv-ing position while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmis- sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Moving the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
hybrid system. Engine braking is not available with the hybrid system disengaged.
●Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal
depressed. Shifting the shift lever to any positions other than P or N may lead to unexpected rapid accelera-
tion of the vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.
■If you hear a squealing or scrap-ing noise (brake pad wear indica-
tors)
Have the brake pads checked and replaced by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads and/or those of the brake discs
are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not depress the accelerator pedal unnecessarily.If the shift lever is any position other
than P or N, the vehicle may accel- erate suddenly and unexpectedly, causing an accident.
●In order to prevent accidents due to the vehicle rolling away, always
keep depressing the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY” indicator is illuminated, and apply
the parking brake as necessary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an
incline, in order to prevent acci- dents caused by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, always
depress the brake pedal and securely apply the parking brake as needed.
●Avoid revving or racing the engine.Running the engine at high speed
while the vehicle is stopped may cause the exhaust system to over-heat, which could result in a fire if
combustible material is nearby.
■When the vehicle is parked
●Do not leave glasses, cigarette lighters, spray cans, or soft drink cans in the vehicle when it is in the
sun. Doing so may result in the follow-ing:
• Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may lead
to a fire.
• The temperature inside the vehicle
may cause the plastic lenses and plastic material of glasses to deform or crack.

4-1. Before driving
Driving
Check the allowable towing capac-
ity, GVM (Gross Vehicle Mass),
MPAC (Maximum Permissible Axle
Capacity), and permissible draw-
bar load before towing. ( P. 4 8 8 )
Toyota recommends the use of the
Toyota hitch/bracket for your vehi-
cle. Other products of a suitable
nature and comparable quality may
also be used.
For vehicle where the towing
device blocks any of the lights or
license plate, the following shall be
observed:
Do not use towing devices that
cannot be easily removed or
repositioned.
Towing devices must be
removed or repositioned when
not in use.
■Total trailer weight and per-
missible drawbar load
Total trailer weight
Weight of the trailer itself plus the trailer
load should be within the maximum
towing capacity. Exceeding this weight
is dangerous. ( P.488)
When towing a trailer, use a friction
coupler or friction stabilizer (sway con-
Trailer towing
Your vehicle is designed pri-
marily as a passenger carrying
vehicle. Towing a trailer will
have an adverse effect on han-
dling, performance, braking,
durability, and fuel consump-
tion. Your safety and satisfac-
tion depend on the proper use
of correct equipment and cau-
tious driving habits. For your
safety and the safety of others,
do not overload the vehicle or
trailer.
To tow a trailer safely, use
extreme care and drive the
vehicle in accordance with the
trailer’s characteristics and
operating conditions.
Toyota warranties do not apply
to damage or malfunction
caused by towing a trailer for
commercial purposes.
Contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable
repairer for further information
about additional requirements
such as towing kits, etc.

5 335 mm (13.2 in.)
6 30 mm (1.2 in.)
7 396 mm (15.6 in.)
■Tire information
●Increase the tire inflation pressure to
20.0 kPa (0.2 kgf/cm2 or bar, 3 psi) greater than the recommended value when towing. ( P.494)
●Increase the air pressure of the trailer tires in accordance with the total
trailer weight and according to the val- ues recommended by the manufac-turer of your trailer.
■Trailer lights
Please consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer when installing
trailer lights, as incorrect installation may cause damage to the vehicle’s lights. Please take care to comply with
your state’s laws when installing trailer lights.
■Break-in schedule
Toyota recommends that vehicles fitted with new power train components should not be used for towing trailers for
the first 800 km (500 miles).
■Safety checks before towing
●Check that the maximum load limit for
the towing hitch/bracket hitch ball is not exceeded. Bear in mind that the coupling weight of the trailer will add
to the load exerted on the vehicle. Also make sure that you will not be towing a load that exceeds the maxi-
mum permissible axle capacity.
●Ensure that the trailer load is secure.
●Supplementary outside rear view mir- rors should be added to the vehicle if
the traffic behind cannot be clearly seen with standard mirrors. Adjust the extending arms of these mirrors on
both sides of the vehicle so that they always provide maximum visibility of the road behind.
■Maintenance
●Maintenance must be performed more frequently when using the vehicle for
towing due to the greater weight bur- den placed on the vehicle compared to normal driving.
●Retighten all bolts securing the hitch-ing ball and bracket after towing for
approximately 1000 km (600 miles).
■If trailer sway occurs
One or more factors (crosswinds, pass- ing vehicles, rough roads, etc.) can
adversely affect handling of your vehicle and trailer, causing instability.
●If trailer swaying occurs:• Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead.
Do not try to control trailer swaying by turning the steering wheel.• Begin releasing the accelerator pedal
immediately but very gradually to reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply
vehicle brakes.

4-2. Driving procedures
Driving
4-2.Driving pro cedu res
1Pull the parking brake switch to
check that the parking brake is
set. ( P.200)
The parking brake indicator will come on.
2 Check that the shift lever is set
in P.
3 Firmly depress the brake pedal.
4 Turn the power switch to START
to start the hybrid system.
If the “READY” indicator turns on, the
hybrid system will operate normally.
Continue depressing the brake pedal until the “READY” indicator is illumi-
nated.
5 Check that the “READY” indica-
tor is illuminated.
The vehicle cannot be driven if the
“READY” indicator is off.
■If the hybrid system does not start
The immobilizer system may not have been deactivated. ( P.84) Contact any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■When the ambient temperature is
low, such as during winter driving conditions
●When starting the hybrid system, the flashing time of the “READY” indicator may be long. Leave the vehicle as it is
until the “READY” indicator is steady on, as steady means the vehicle is able to move.
●When the hybrid battery (traction bat-
tery) is extremely cold (below approxi- mately -30°C [-22°F]) under the influence of the outside temperature, it
may not be possible to start the hybrid system. In this case, try to start the hybrid system again after the tem-
perature of the hybrid battery increases due to the outside tempera-ture increase, etc.
■Sounds and vibrations specific to a
hybrid vehicle

■When the steering lock cannot be released
When starting the hybrid system, the power switch may seem stuck in OFF. To free it, turn the key while turning the
steering wheel slightly left and right.
■If the “READY” indicator does not
come on
In the event that the “READY” indicator does not come on even after performing
the proper procedures for starting the vehicle, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer immediately.
