4-1. Before driving
WARNING
●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.
• Soft drink cans may fracture, caus- ing the contents to spray over the
interior of the vehicle, and may also cause a short circuit in the vehicle’s electrical components.
●Do not leave cigarette lighters in the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a
place such as the glove box or on the floor, it may be lit accidentally when luggage is loaded or the seat
is adjusted, causing a fire.
●Do not attach adhesive discs to the
windshield or windows. Do not place containers such as air fresh-eners on the instrument panel or
dashboard. Adhesive discs or con- tainers may act as lenses, causing a fire in the vehicle.
●Do not leave a door or window open if the curved glass is coated
with a metallized film such as a sil- ver-colored one. Reflected sunlight may cause the glass to act as a
lens, causing a fire.
●Always apply the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P (vehicles with Multidrive), stop the engine
and lock the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle unat-tended while the engine is running.
If the vehicle is parked with the shift lever in P but the parking brake is not set, the vehicle may start to
move, possibly leading to an acci- dent.
●Do not touch the exhaust pipes while the engine is running or immediately after turning the engine
off. Doing so may cause burns.
■When taking a nap in the vehicle
Always turn the engine off. Otherwise, if you accidentally move the shift lever
or depress the accelerator pedal, this could cause an accident or fire due to engine overheating. Additionally, if the
vehicle is parked in a poorly ventilated area, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle, leading to death or
a serious health hazard.
■When braking
●When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.Braking distance increases when
the brakes are wet, and this may cause one side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other
side. Also, the parking brake may not securely hold the vehicle.
●If the brake booster device does not operate, do not follow other vehi-cles closely and avoid hills or sharp
turns that require braking. In this case, braking is still possible, but the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual. Also, the braking distance will increase. Have your brakes fixed
immediately.

Driving
WARNING
●Do not pump the brake pedal if the engine stalls.
Each push on the brake pedal uses up the reserve for the power-assisted brakes.
●The brake system consists of 2 indi-vidual hydraulic systems; if one of
the systems fails, the other will still operate. In this case, the brake pedal should be depressed more
firmly than usual and the braking distance will increase. Have your brakes fixed immediately.
■If the vehicle becomes stuck
Do not spin the wheels excessively
when a driven wheel is up in the air, or the vehicle is stuck in sand, mud, etc. This may damage the driveline
components or propel the vehicle for- ward or backward, causing an acci-dent.
NOTICE
■When driving the vehicle (vehi-cles with Multidrive)
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time during driving, as this may restrain
the engine output.
●Do not use the accelerator pedal or
depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time to hold the vehicle on a hill.
■When driving the vehicle (vehi-cles with manual transmission)
●Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time during driving, as this may restrain
the engine output.
●Do not shift gears unless the clutch
pedal is fully depressed. After shift- ing, do not release the clutch pedal abruptly. Doing so may damage the
clutch, transmission and gears.
●Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause exces-sive premature wear or damage to
the clutch, eventually making it diffi- cult to accelerate and start off from a stop. Have the vehicle inspected
by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
• Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal or depress it any time other
than when shifting. Doing so may cause clutch trouble.
• Do not use any gear other than the 1st gear when starting off and mov-ing forward.
Doing so may damage the clutch.
• 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 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.

*: 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.

*: For the vehicle be able to be shifted
from P, the brake pedal must be
depressed before the shift release
button is pushed. If the shift release
button is pushed first, the shift lock
will not be released.
■Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to pre- vent accidental operation of the shift
lever in starting. The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in ON
and the brake pedal is being depressed.
■If the shift lever cannot be shifted from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is
being depressed. If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake pedal, there may
be a problem with the shift lock system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer immediately.The following steps may be used as an
emergency measure to ensure that the shift lever can be shifted.Releasing the shift lock:
1 Set the parking brake.
2 Turn the engine switch off.

4-2. Driving procedures
Driving
To drive using temporary shift
range selection, operate the “-” or
“+” paddle shift switch.
When the “-” paddle shift switch is
operated, the gear step switches to
a range that enables engine brak-
ing force that is suitable to driving
conditions. When the “+” paddle
shift switch is operated, the gear
step switches to a step that is one
step higher than the current step.
Changing the gear step allows
restriction of the highest gear step,
preventing unnecessary upshifting
and enabling the level of engine
braking force to be selected.
1 Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The selected gear step, from D1 to D7,
will be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display.
■Gear step functions
●7 levels of accelerating force and engine braking can be selected.
●A lower gear step will provide greater engine braking force than a higher gear step, and the engine speed will
also increase.
■Deactivation of temporary 7-speed Sport Sequential Shiftmatic mode
In the following situations, temporary 7-
speed Sport Sequential Shiftmatic mode will be deactivated:
●When the vehicle is stopped
●If the accelerator pedal is depressed
continuously for more than a certain amount of time while in one gear step
●If the accelerator pedal is depressed abruptly and heavily
●When the shift lever is shifted to a position other than D
●When the “+” paddle shift switch is operated for a certain amount of time
continuously

To help ensure safety and driving perfor-
mance, downshifting operation may sometimes be restricted. In some cir-cumstances, downshifting may not be
WARNING
■To prevent an accident when releasing the shift lock
Before pressing the shift lock override button, make sure to set the parking brake and depress the brake pedal.
If the accelerator pedal is accidentally depressed instead of the brake pedal when the shift lock override button is
pressed and the shift lever is shifted out of P, the vehicle may suddenly start, possibly leading to an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
