4-1. Before driving
NOTICE
• Do not use the clutch pedal to adjust vehicle speed. When stop-
ping the vehicle with the shift lever in a position other then N, make sure to fully depress the clutch
pedal and stop the vehicle using the brake.Doing so may damage the clutch.
• When stopping the vehicle with the shift lever in a position other than N,
make sure to fully depress the clutch pedal and stop the vehicle using the brakes.
●Do not shift the shift lever to R with-out the vehicle completely stopped.
Doing so may damage the clutch, transmission and gears.
■When parking the vehicle (vehi-cles with a Multidrive)
Always set the parking brake and shift
the shift lever to P. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly if
the accelerator pedal is accidentally depressed.
■Avoiding damage to vehicle parts
●Do not turn the steering wheel fully in either direction and hold it there
for an extended period of time. Doing so may damage the power steering motor.
●When driving over bumps in the road, drive as slowly as possible to
avoid damaging the wheels, under- side of the vehicle, etc.
■If you get a flat tire while driving
A flat or damaged tire may cause the following situations. Hold the steering
wheel firmly and gradually depress the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle.
●It may be difficult to control your vehicle.
●The vehicle will make abnormal sounds or vibrations.
●The vehicle will lean abnormally.
Information on what to do in case of a
flat tire ( →P.379, 389)
■When encountering flooded
roads
Do not drive on a road that has flooded after heavy rain, etc. Doing so
may cause the following serious dam- age to the vehicle:
●Engine stalling
●Short in electrical components
●Engine damage caused by water immersion
In the event that you drive on a flooded road and the vehicle becomes flooded or stuck in mud or
sand, be sure to have any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer check
the following:
●Brake function
●Changes in the quantity and quality of the engine oil, transmission fluid,
clutch fluid, differential oil, etc.
●Lubricant condition for the bearings
and suspension joints (where possi- ble), and the function of all joints, bearings, etc.

4-2. Driving procedures
*: If equipped
*: To improve fuel efficiency and reduce
noise, shift the shift lever to D for nor-
mal driving.
■To protect the Multidrive
If the Multidrive fluid temperature is
high, “Transmission Oil Temp. High Stop
in a safe place and See owner’s man-
ual” will be displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display and the vehicle will go
into transmission protection mode auto-
matically. Have the vehicle inspected by
any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
■Multidrive fail-safe control
The system detects malfunctioning parts
targeted (all of the solenoids that per-form the shifting function) by the On-
Board Diagnostics, and performs fail-
safe mechanisms, such as restricting
the shifting function or transmission ratio
control. In this event, the malfunction
indicator lamp turns on.
■When driving with dynamic radar
cruise control activated (if
equipped)
Even when switching the driving mode
to power mode with the intent of
enabling engine braking, engine braking
will not occur because dynamic radar
cruise control will not be canceled.
(→P.266)
■Restraining sudden start (Drive-
Start Control)
→P. 1 4 5
■AI-SHIFT
AI-SHIFT automatically selects the suit-
able gear step according to driver per-
formance and driving conditions. AI-
SHIFT automatically operates when the
driving mode is set to Normal mode with
the shift lever in D. (Shifting the shift
lever to M cancels the function.)
■G AI-SHIFT
G AI-SHIFT automatically selects a suit-
able gear for sporty driving according to
driver’s input and driving conditions. G
AI-SHIFT operates automatically when
the shift lever is in D and power mode is
selected for the driving mode. (Selecting
other than power mode or shifting the
shift lever to the other position cancels
this function)

the vehicle from rolling backwards
before the engine is restarted and
drive force is generated. When
drive force is generated, the main-
tained brake force is automatically
canceled.
zThis function operates on flat
surfaces as well as steep
inclines.
zSound may be generated from
the brake system, but this does
not indicate a malfunction.
zBrake pedal response may
change and vibration may occur,
but this does not indicate a mal-
function.
■Points for use
●If the engine switch is pressed when
the engine is stopped by the Stop &
Start system, the engine will not be
able to be restarted by the automatic
engine start function. In this case,
restart the engine using the normal
engine starting procedure. (→ P.158,
159)
●When the engine is being restarted by
the Stop & Start system, the power
outlets may be temporarily unusable,
but this does not indicate a malfunc-
tion.
●Installation and removal of electrical
components and wireless devices
may affect the Stop & Start system.
Contact any authorized Toyota retailer
or Toyota authorized repairer, or any
reliable repairer for details.
●When stopping the vehicle for a lon-
ger period of time, turn the engine
switch off to stop the engine com-
pletely.
●When the engine is restarted by the
Stop & Start system, the steering
wheel may temporarily feel heavy.
■Operating conditions
●The Stop & Start system is operational
when all of the following conditions
are met:
• The vehicle has been driven a certain
amount of time.
• The brake pedal is being depressed
firmly.
• The clutch pedal is not depressed
(vehicles with a manual transmission).
• The shift lever is in D or P (vehicles
with a Multidrive).
• The shift lever is in N (vehicles with a
manual transmission).
• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The driver’s door is closed.
• The selected driving mode is Normal
or Eco drive mode.
• The windshield defogger is off. (vehi-
cles without a manual air conditioning
system)
• The accelerator pedal is not being
depressed (vehicles with a Multidrive).
• The engine is adequately warmed up.
• The outside temperature is -5°C
(23°F) or higher.
• The hood is closed. (→P.233)
●In the following situations the engine
may not be stopped by the Stop &
Start system. This is not a malfunction
of the Stop & Start system.
• When the air conditioning system is
being used.
• When the battery is undergoing a peri-
odic recharge.
• When the battery is not sufficiently
charged, such as if the vehicle has
been parked for a long time and the
battery charge has decreased, the
electric load is large, the battery fluid
temperature is excessively low or the
battery has deteriorated.
• When the brake booster vacuum is
low.
• When the elapsed time since the
engine was restarted is short.
• When the vehicle is stopped fre-
quently, such as when in a traffic jam.
• When the engine coolant temperature
or transmission fluid temperature is
extremely low or high.
• When the vehicle is stopped on a

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 or clutch pedal
(vehicles with a manual transmission),
pedal almost touches the floor, vehicle
pulls to one side when braking
●Engine coolant temperature continu-
ally higher than normal (→P.86, 90)
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.
