Adaptive Cruise Control is
designed for use on expressways,
freeways, toll roads, interstate
highways and similar limited
access roads. It is not intended to
be used in city traffic. In the fol-
lowing conditions, do not use
Adaptive Cruise Control. Doing so
may result in an accident.
●Ordinary roads (roads other
than those mentioned above)
• Depending on the driving envi- ronment (complexity of roads
and other factors), the system
may not be able to perform as
the traffic conditions require,
and that may result in an acci-
dent.
●Sharp curves or winding roads

WARNING
●There are limits to the situation
judgment capabilities of the
Adaptive Cruise Control system.
Deceleration may not take place
in time in the following situa-
tions. Apply the brake pedal to
decelerate the vehicle if neces-
sary.
• The speed difference with the vehicle in front is too large or
the vehicle in front decelerates
unexpectedly.
• The decelerating vehicle in front unexpectedly sl ows down or
suddenly brakes.
●If the alert/notification sounds
frequently, do not use Adaptive
Cruise Control.
●Even when the following dis-
tance is short, the “Obstacle
Detected” warning may not acti-
vate in the following situations.
• The difference in speed with the vehicle in front is small. The two
vehicles are traveling at almost
the same speed.
• The vehicle in fr ont is traveling
faster than your vehicle. The fol-
lowing distance is gradually
increasing.
• Another vehicle cuts into your lane very close to your vehicle.
• The vehicle in front decelerates suddenly.
• There are repeated uphill and downhill grades.
*: The recognition status of the
lead vehicle using the stereo
camera can be confirmed by the
illumination status of the lead
vehicle indicator. (
P.196)
NOTICE
●After Adaptive Cruise Control
has started, it maintains control
continuously according to the
behavior of the veh icle in front.
When your vehicle comes to a
stop because the vehicle in front
has stopped, the automatic
braking function will be can-
celed immediately after stop-
ping and the veh icle will start
creeping forward gradually (at
the same time 3 intermittent
beeps, 1 short beep and 1 long
beep will sound). Be sure to
depress the brake pedal and
stop the vehicle completely.
Note that the v ehicle is not
maintained at a standstill posi-
tion and will not automatically
start moving from a standstill
position.
●Braking may not be sufficient
depending on the following con-
ditions. Depress the brake
pedal and decelerate as neces-
sary.
• Vehicle conditions (amount of load, number of occupants, etc.)
• Road conditions (grade, slip- periness, shape, bumps, etc.)
• Vehicle maintenance condition (brake systems, tire wear, air
pressure, temporary spare tire
is being used, etc.)
• The brakes are cold. (For exam- ple, just after the engine is
started or the outside tempera-
ture is low.)
• For a short period of time when driving after the engine is
started until the engine has
warmed-up
• The brakes are overheated on downhill grades (braking perfor-
mance may be reduced).
2444-6. Using other driving systems
• When reversing on an uneven road.
●In circumstances such as the fol-
lowing, it may not be possible to
avoid a collision even when the
system operate s normally.
• Roads are slippery.
• The tire air pressure is not correct.
• The tires have become worn.
• Tire chains are installed. • Tires which are not the designated
size are installed.
• Emergency repairs were per-
formed using a puncture repair kit.
• The suspension was modified.
• Vehicle driving is unstable due to accident or malfunction.
• The brake system warning light is
illuminated.
When Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) system is in operation, an
audible warning beeps will sound in 3 levels to warn the driver of a
potential collision.
It may take time to display the wall and sound warning beeps af ter the object
was recognized by the Sonar Audible Alarm.
*: Range of detection may vary d epending on the environmental condition.
■Obstacle detected and alert
level
When an object is detected in
the reversing direction, the
range of detected object will be
shown on the multimedia sys- tem screen.
A warning alarm will sound and,
depending on the speed, either
torque control to generate
engine braking or automatic
braking will be applied.

maker, same brand and tread pat-
tern.
Perform the following according
to the driving conditions:
Do not try to forcibly open a
window or move a wiper that
is frozen. 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 accumulated on the air
inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the
exterior lights, vehicle’s roof,
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary
preparations and inspec-
tions before driving the
vehicle in winter. Always
drive the vehicle in a man-
ner appropriate to the pre-
vailing weather conditions.
Preparation for winter
WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so m ay result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Use tires of the specified size,
and that are the same size,
same maker, same brand and
tread pattern.
●Maintain the recommended
level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75
mph (120 km/h), regardless of
the type of snow tires being
used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just
some wheels.
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow
tires
Request repairs or replacement of
snow tires from Toyota dealers or
legitimate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and
attachment of snow tires affects
the operation of the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters.
