WARNING
●Make sure to use only standard sized tires, such as those that were
installed to the vehicle when it was shipped from the factory. Other-wise, the Advanced Park may not
operate properly. Also, when the tires have been replaced, the dis-played position of the lines or box
displayed on the screen may become incorrect. When replacing the tires, contact any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●As Advanced Park is designed to assist in parking the vehicle in a set parking space, depending on the
condition of the road surface or the vehicle, the distance between the vehicle and a parking space, etc., it
may not be possible to detect a parking space or may not be able to provide assistance to the point the
vehicle is fully parked.
●In situations such as the following, it
may not be possible for the Advanced Park to provide assis-tance to the selected parking spot:
• When the tires are extremely worn or the tire inflation pressure is low
• When carrying a heavy load
• When the vehicle is tilted due to the carried load
• When a heater is installed in the surface of the parking space (road surface freeze prevention heater)
• When the wheels are misaligned, such after a wheels has been sub-
jected to a strong impact
If the vehicle deviates greatly from the
set parking space in any situation
other than the above, have the vehi-
cle inspected by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
WARNING
■Stopping distance when the ABS is operating may exceed that of
normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to shorten the vehicle’s stopping distance.
Always maintain a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, especially in the following situations:
●When driving on dirt, gravel or snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the road
●When driving over roads with pot-holes or uneven surfaces
■TRC/VSC may not operate effec-tively when
Directional control and power may not
be achievable while driving on slip- pery road surfaces, even if the TRC/VSC system is operating. Drive
the vehicle carefully in conditions where stability and power may be lost.
■Active Cornering Assist does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on Active Corner-ing Assist. Active Cornering Assist may not operate effectively when
accelerating down slopes or driving on slippery road surfaces.
●When Active Cornering Assist fre-quently operates, Active Cornering Assist may temporarily stop operat-
ing to ensure proper operation of the brakes, TRC and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start assist
control. Hill-start assist control may not operate effectively on steep inclines and roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-start assist control is not intended to hold the vehicle stationary for an
extended period of time. Do not attempt to use hill-start assist con-trol to hold the vehicle on an incline,
as doing so may lead to an acci- dent.
■When the TRC/ABS/VSC is acti-vated
The slip indicator light flashes. Always
drive carefully. Reckless driving may cause an accident. Exercise particular care when the indicator light flashes.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-tions. As these are the systems to
help ensure vehicle stability and driv- ing force, do not turn the TRC/VSC systems off unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the
specified size, brand, tread pattern and total load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to
the recommended tire inflation pres- sure level.The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will
not function correctly if different tires are installed on the vehicle.Contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer for further information when replacing tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the suspen-sion
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect the driving assist systems, and may
cause a system to malfunction.

4-6. Driving tips
a traffic jam, gently release the
brake pedal to allow the vehicle to
move forward slightly while avoid-
ing overuse of the accelerator
pedal. Doing so can help control
excessive gasoline consumption.
Control and maintain the vehicle at
a constant speed. Before stopping
at a toll booth or similar, allow
plenty of time to release the accel-
erator and gently apply the brakes.
A greater amount of electrical
energy can be regenerated when
slowing down.
Use the air conditioning only when
necessary. Doing so can help
reduce excessive gasoline con-
sumption.
In summer: When the ambient tem-
perature is high, use the recircu-
lated air mode. Doing so will help to
reduce the burden on the air condi-
tioning system and reduce fuel con-
sumption as well.
In winter: Because the gasoline
engine will not automatically cut out
until it and the interior of the vehicle
are warm, it will consume fuel. Also,
fuel consumption can be improved
by avoiding overuse of the heater.
Make sure to check the tire inflation
pressure frequently. Improper tire
inflation pressure can cause poor
fuel economy.
Also, as snow tires can cause large
amounts of friction, their use on dry
roads can lead to poor fuel econ-
omy. Use tires that are appropriate
for the season.
Carrying heavy luggage will lead to
poor fuel economy. Avoid carrying
unnecessary luggage. Installing a
large roof rack will also cause poor
fuel economy.
Since the gasoline engine starts up
and cuts out automatically when
cold, warming up the engine is
unnecessary. Moreover, frequently
driving short distances will cause
the engine to repeatedly warm up,
which can lead to excess fuel con-
sumption.

Maintenance and care
request that a record of maintenance
be kept.
■Does your vehicle need repairs?
Be on the alert for changes in perfor- mance and sounds, and visual tip-offs
that indicate service is needed. Some important clues are:
●Engine misses (misfire), stumbling or pinging
●Appreciable loss of power
●Strange engine noises
●A fluid leak under the vehicle (How-ever, water dripping from the air con-
ditioning system after use is normal.)
●Change in exhaust sound (This may
indicate a dangerous carbon monox- ide leak. Drive with the windows open and have the exhaust system checked
immediately.)
●Flat-looking tires, excessive tire
squeal when cornering, uneven tire wear
●Vehicle pulls to one side when driven straight on a level road
●Strange noises related to suspension movement
●Loss of brake effectiveness, spongy feeling brake pedal, pedal almost touches the floor, vehicle pulls to one
side when braking
●Engine coolant temperature continu- ally higher than normal ( P.100, 95)
If you notice any of these clues, take
your vehicle to any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer as soon as possi-
ble. Your vehicle may need adjustment or repair.

molded into the sidewall of each tire.
Replace the tires if the treadwear indi-
cators are showing on a tire.
■When to replace your vehicle’s tires
Tires should be replaced if:
●The treadwear indicators are showing on a tire.
●You have tire damage such as cuts, splits, cracks deep enough to expose
the fabric, and bulges indicating inter- nal damage
●A tire goes flat repeatedly or cannot be properly repaired due to the size or location of a cut or other damage
If you are not sure, consult with any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
■Tire life
Any tire over 6 years old must be checked by a qualified technician even if
it has seldom or never been used, or damage is not obvious.
■If the tread on snow tires wears down below 4 mm (0.16 in.)
The effectiveness of the tires as snow tires is lost.
■Checking the tire valves
When replacing the tires, check the tire
valves for deformation, cracks, and other damage.
Rotate the tires in the order shown.
WARNING
■When inspecting or replacing tires
Observe the following precautions to
prevent accidents. Failure to do so may cause damage to parts of the drivetrain as well as
dangerous handling characteristics, which may lead to an accident result-ing in death or serious injury.
●Do not mix tires of different makes, models or tread patterns.Also, do not mix tires of remarkably
different treadwear.
●Do not use tire sizes other than
those recommended by Toyota.
●Do not mix differently constructed
tires (radial, bias-belted or bias-ply tires).
●Do not mix summer, all season and snow tires.
●Do not use tires that have been used on another vehicle.Do not use tires if you do not know
how they were used previously.
NOTICE
■If tire inflation pressure of each tire becomes low while driving
Do not continue driving, or your tires and/or wheels may be ruined.
■Driving on rough roads
Take particular care when driving on roads with loose surfaces or potholes.
These conditions may cause losses in tire inflation pressure, reducing the cushioning ability of the tires. In addi-
tion, driving on rough roads may cause damage to the tires them-selves, as well as the vehicle’s
wheels and body.

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
Front
To equalize tire wear and help extend
tire life, Toyota recommends that tire
rotation is carried out approximately
every 10000 km (6000 miles).
When rotating front and rear tires which
have different tire inflation pressures,
do not fail to initialize the tire pressure
warning system after tire rotation.
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire
pressure warning system that uses
tire pressure warning valves and
transmitters to detect low tire infla-
tion pressure before serious prob-
lems arise.
The tire pressure warning system
of this vehicle adopts a 2-type
warning system.
 When “Adjust Pressure” is dis-
played (Normal Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn-
ing light and warning buzzer when
there is an unknown level of low tire
pressure with the appearance of the tire
due to natural air leakage as well as the
pressure lowering due to changes in
the pressure according to the outside
temperature. (Ways of coping: P.447,
494)
 When “Immediately Check tire
when Safe” is displayed (Emer-
gency Warning)
A warning with the tire pressure warn-
ing light and warning buzzer when
there is a known level of low tire pres-
sure with the appearance of the tire due
to pressure suddenly lowering. (Ways
of coping: P.452, 463)
However, the system may not be able
to detect sudden tire ruptures (bursting,
etc.).
The tire pressure detected by the
tire pressure warning system can
be displayed on the 9-inch display
multimedia system or multi-infor-
mation display.
9-inch display multimedia system
