4-1. Before driving
When the following unusual opera-
tion is performed with the accelera-
tor pedal depressed, the engine
output may be restrained.
• When the shift lever is shifted to
R*.
• When the shift lever is shifted
from P or R to forward drive shift
position such as D*.
When the system operates, a mes-
sage appears on the multi-informa-
tion display. Read the message and
follow the instruction.
*: Depending on the situation, the shift
position may not be changed.
■Drive-Start Control (DSC)
When the TRC is turned off ( P.212),
sudden start restraint control also does not operate. If your vehicle have trouble escaping from the mud or fresh snow
due to sudden start restraint control operation, deactivate TRC ( P.212) so that the vehicle may become able to
escape from the mud or fresh snow.
NOTICE
■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.313, 324)
■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.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
■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 manual transmission). • The shift lever is in D (vehicles with Multidrive).
• The shift lever is in N (vehicles with manual transmission).• The driver’s seat belt is fastened.
• The driver’s door is closed. • The windshield defogger is off. (vehi-cles without a manual air conditioning
system) • The accelerator pedal is not being depressed (vehicles with Multidrive).
• The engine is adequately warmed up. • The outside temperature is -5°C (23°F) or higher.
• The hood is closed. ( P.201)
●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
steep incline (vehicles with Multid- rive).
• When the steering wheel is being
operated. • When the vehicle is being driven in a high altitude area.
• When the battery fluid temperature is extremely low or high.• For a while after the battery terminals
have been disconnected and recon- nected.
●When the engine is stopped by the S t o p & S t a r t s y s t e m , t h e e n g i n e w i l l b e restarted automatically if any of the
following conditions are met:
(To enable the engine to be stopped by
the Stop & Start system again, drive the
vehicle.)
• The air conditioning system is turned on. (vehicles without a manual air
conditioning system) • The windshield defogger is turned on. (vehicles without a manual air condi-
tioning system) • The shift lever is shifted from D (vehi-cles with Multidrive).
• The shift lever is shifted from P. (When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system when the shift
lever is in P.) (vehicles with Multidrive) • The driver’s seat belt is unfastened.• The driver’s door is opened.
• The Stop & Start cancel switch is pressed.• The steering wheel is operated.
• The accelerator pedal is depressed (vehicles with Multidrive).• The vehicle starts to roll on an incline.
●When the engine is stopped by the Stop & Start system, the engine may
restart automatically in the following situations: (To enable the engine to be stopped by the Stop & Start system
again, drive the vehicle.) • When the brake pedal is pumped or strongly depressed.
• When the air conditioning system is being used.• When a switch of the air conditioning
system is operated (windshield defog- ger switch, etc.).• If the battery charge becomes low.

6-2. Maintenance
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 manual transmission),
pedal almost touches the floor, vehicle pulls to one side when braking
●Engine coolant temperature continu-ally higher than normal ( P.304)
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.

6-3. Do-it-yourself maintenance
WARNING
●Do not leave anything that may burn easily, such as paper and
rags, in the engine compartment.
●Do not smoke, cause sparks or
expose an open flame to fuel or the battery. Fuel and battery fumes are flammable.
●Be extremely cautious when work-ing on the battery. It contains poi-
sonous and corrosive sulfuric acid.
●Take care because brake fluid can
harm your hands or eyes and dam- age painted surfaces. If fluid gets on your hands or in your eyes, flush
the affected area with clean water immediately.If you still experience discomfort,
consult a doctor.
■When working near the electric
cooling fan or radiator grille
Be sure the engine switch is OFF. With the engine switch in ON, the
electric cooling fan may automatically start to run if the air conditioning is on and/or the coolant temperature is
high. ( P.261)
■Safety glasses
Wear safety glasses to prevent flying or falling material, fluid spray, etc. from getting in your eyes.
NOTICE
■If you remove the air cleaner fil-ter
Driving with the air cleaner filter removed may cause excessive engine wear due to dirt in the air.
■If the fluid level is low or high
It is normal for the brake fluid level to go down slightly as the brake pads
wear or when the fluid level in the accumulator is high.If the reservoir needs frequent refill-
ing, it may indicate a serious problem.
