the system
There is a limit to the degree of recog- nition accuracy and control perfor-
mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for paying
attention to the vehicle’s surroundings and driving safely.
■To ensure the system can oper-ate properly
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehi- cle being unable to be driven safely and possibly cause an accident.
●Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
●Do not a sticker or an electronic component, such as a backlit
license plate (especially fluorescent type), fog lights, fender pole or wire-less antenna is installed near a
radar sensor.
●Do not subject the radar sensor or its surrounding area to a strong impact. If the radar sensor, front
grille, or front bumper has been subjected to a strong impact, have the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer. If a sensor or the rear
bumper needs to be removed/installed or replaced, con-tact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
●Do n ot m od i fy, d is a sse mb l e o r p ai n t the sensors.
●Do not attach a license plate cover.

●Failing to observe the warnings above.
●A non-genuine Toyota suspension (lowered suspension, etc.) is
installed.
■Notes when washing the vehicle
Do not apply intensive bursts of water or steam to the sensor area.
Doing so may result in the sensor
malfunctioning.
●When using a high pressure
washer to wash the vehicle, do not spray the sensors directly, as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunc-
tion.
●When using steam to clean the
vehicle, do not direct steam too close to the sensors as doing so may cause a sensor to malfunction.

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
the driving conditions:
 Do not try to forcibly open a win-
dow or move a wiper that is fro-
zen. Pour warm water over the
frozen area to melt the ice. Wipe
away the water immediately to
prevent it from freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system fan,
remove any snow that has accu-
mulated on the air inlet vents in
front of the windshield.
 Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the exte-
rior lights, vehicle’s roof, chassis,
around the tires or on the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud from
the bottom of your shoes before
getting in the vehicle.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly, keep
a safe distance between you and
the vehicle ahead, and drive at a
reduced speed suitable to road
conditions.
 Park the vehicle and shift the
shift lever to P without setting the
parking brake. The parking brake
may freeze up, preventing it from
being released. If the vehicle is
parked without setting the park-
ing brake, make sure to block the
wheels.
Failure to do so may be danger-
ous because it may cause the
vehicle to move unexpectedly,
possibly leading to an accident.
 If the vehicle is parked without
setting the parking brake, con-
firm that the shift lever cannot be
moved out of P*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is
attempted to be shifted from P to any
other position without depressing the
brake pedal. If the shift lever can be
shifted from P, there may be a prob-
lem with the shift lock system. Have
the vehicle inspected by any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-
rized repairer, or any reliable repairer
or legitimate tire retailers immedi-
ately.
Use the correct tire chain size when
mounting the tire chains.
Chain size is regulated for each tire
size.
