ually releasing the clutch pedal.
3 Release the parking brake.
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully when it is raining, because visibility will be reduced, the
windows may become fogged-up, and
the road will be slippery.
●Drive carefully when it starts to rain,
because the road surface will be especially slippery.
●Refrain from high speeds when driv-ing on an expressway in the rain, because there may be a layer of water
between the tires and the road sur- face, preventing the steering and brakes from operating properly.
■Engine speed while driving (vehi-
cles with Multidrive)
In the following conditions, the engine speed may become high while driving.
This is due to automatic up-shifting con- trol or down-shifting implementation to meet driving conditions. It does not indi-
cate sudden acceleration.
●The vehicle is judged to be driving
uphill or downhill
●When the accelerator pedal is
released
●When the brake pedal is depressed
while power mode is selected
■Restraining the engine output (Brake Override System)
●When the accelerator and brake ped-als are depressed at the same time, the engine output may be restrained.
●A warning message is displayed on the multi-information display while the
system is operating.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ- ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●For the first 300 km (186 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 1000 km (621 miles): • Do not drive at extremely high
speeds. • Avoid sudden acceleration.• Do not drive continuously in low
gears. • Do not drive at a constant speed for

Modes can be changed by pressing
the engine switch with brake pedal
(Multidrive) or clutch pedal (man-
ual transmission) released. (The
mode changes each time the
switch is pressed.)
“ACCESSORY”
“IGNITION ON”
1 OFF*
The emergency flashers can be used.
2ACC
Some electrical components such as
the audio system can be used.
“ACCESSORY” will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
3 ON
All electrical components can be used.
“IGNITION ON” will be displayed on the
multi-information display.
*: Vehicles with Multidrive: If the shift
lever is in a position other than P
when turning off the engine, the
engine switch will be remained to
ON, not to off.
■Auto power off function
Multidrive: If the vehicle is left in ACC or ON (the engine is not running) for more than 20 minutes with the shift lever in P,
the engine switch will automatically turn off. However, this function cannot entirely prevent battery discharge. Do
not leave the vehicle with the engine
WARNING
■Stopping the engine in an emer- gency
●If you want to stop the engine in an emergency while driving the vehi-cle, press and hold the engine
switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. ( P.296)
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emergency. Turning the engine off
while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, but the power assist to these systems will
be lost. This will make it more diffi- cult to steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
●If the engine switch is operated
while the vehicle is running, a warn- ing message will be shown on the multi-information display and a
buzzer sounds.
●Vehicles with Multidrive: To restart
the engine after performing an emergency shutdown, shift the shift lever to N and then press the
engine switch.
●Vehicles with manual transmission:
To restart the engine after perform- ing an emergency shutdown, depress the clutch pedal and then
press the engine switch.

switch in ACC or ON for long periods of
time when the engine is not running.
Manual transmission: If the vehicle is left in ACC or ON (the engine is not running)
for more than 20 minutes, the engine switch will automatically turn off. How-ever, this function cannot entirely pre-
vent battery discharge. Do not leave the vehicle with the engine switch in ACC or ON for long periods of time when the
engine is not running.
If the engine is stopped with the
shift lever in a position other than P,
the engine switch will not be turned
off. Perform the following procedure
to turn the switch off:
1 Check that the parking brake is
set.
2 Shift the shift lever to P.
3 Check that “IGNITION ON” is
displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display and press the
engine switch shortly and firmly.
4 Check that “ACCESSORY” or
“IGNITION ON” on the multi-
information display is off.
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
●Do not leave the engine switch in
ACC or ON for long periods of time without the engine running.
●If “ACCESSORY” or “IGNITION ON” is displayed on the multi-infor-mation display, the engine switch is
not off. Exit the vehicle after turning the engine switch off.
When stopping the engine
with the shift lever in a posi-
tion other than P (vehicles
with Multidrive)
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not stop the engine when the shift lever is in a position other than P. If
the engine is stopped in another shift lever position, the engine switch will
not be turned off and remained to ON. If the vehicle is left in ON, battery dis-charge may occur.

Driving
*: 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.

possible even when the paddle shift
switch is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
To enter 7-speed sport sequential
shiftmatic mode, shift the shift lever
to M position. Gear steps can then
be selected by operating the shift
lever or paddle shift switches (if
equipped), allowing you to drive in
the gear step of your choosing.
1 Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The gear step changes once every time
the shift lever or paddle shift switches (if
equipped) is operated.
The selected gear step, from M1 to M7,
will be displayed on the multi-informa-
tion display.
However, even when in the M posi-
tion, the gear steps will be automat-
ically changed if the engine speed
is too high, or too low.
■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.
■When the vehicle comes to a stop with the shift lever in the M position
●The transmission will automatically downshift to M1 once the vehicle is stopped.
●After a stop, the vehicle will start off in M1.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the transmission is set at M1.
■Downshifting restriction warning
buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving perfor- mance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some cir- cumstances, downshifting may not be possible even when the shift lever is
operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
■If the 7-speed sport sequential shiftmatic mode indicator does not come on even after shifting the
shift lever to M
This may indicate a malfunction in the
Multidrive system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer immediately. (In this situation, the transmission will operate in the same manner as when
the shift lever is in D.)

Press and hold the “-SET” switch.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control with
Road Sign Assist can be
enabled/disabled in on the
multi-information display. ( P.358)
When the Dynamic Radar Cruise
Control with Road Sign Assist is
operating, while driving down a hill,
the vehicle speed may exceed the
set speed.In this case, the dis-
played set vehicle speed will be
highlighted and a buzzer will sound
to alert the driver.
■Dynamic radar cruise control can
be set when
●Vehicles with Multidrive: The shift
lever is in D.
●Vehicles with manual transmission:
The shift lever is in range 2nd or higher.
●Depending on the control mode, this
item can be set at the following speeds.• Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control
mode: Approximately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more• Constant speed control mode:
Approximately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more
■Accelerating after setting the vehi-cle speed
The vehicle can accelerate by operating the accelerator pedal. After accelerat-ing, the set speed resumes. However,
during vehicle-to-vehicle distance con- trol mode, the vehicle speed may decrease below the set speed in order
to maintain the distance to the preceding vehicle.
■Shift position selection (vehicles with manual transmission)
Select a shift position according to the vehicle speed. If the engine speed is too high or too low, control may be automat-
ically canceled.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle- to-vehicle distance control mode
Vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
is automatically canceled in the follow- ing situations.
●Actual vehicle speed falls below approximately 25 km/h (16 mph).
●VSC is activated.
●TRC is activated for a period of time.
●When the VSC or TRC system is turned off.
●The sensor cannot detect correctly because it is covered in some way.
●When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support
system operates. (For example: Pre- Collision System, Drive-Start Control)
●Vehicles with manual transmission: When the shift lever is in N or the clutch pedal is depressed for a certain
amount of time or more.
●The parking brake is operated.
