toxic gas to help restrain the motion of the occupants.
■If the SRS airbags deploy (inflate)
●Slight abrasions, burns, bruising etc., may be sustained from SRS airbags,
due to the extremely high speed deployment (inflation) by hot gases.
●A loud noise and white powder will be emitted.
●Parts of the airbag module (steering wheel hub, airbag cover and inflator) as well as the front seats, parts of the
front and rear pillars, and roof side rails, may be hot for several minutes. The airbag itself may also be hot.
●The windshield may crack.
●The brakes and stop lights will be con-trolled automatically. ( P.212)
●The interior lights will turn on automat- ically. ( P.231)
●The emergency flashers will turn on automatically. ( P.296)
●Fuel supply to the engine will be stopped. ( P.303)
●Vehicles with eCall: If any of the fol-
lowing situations occur, the system is
designed to send an emergency call*
to the eCall control center, notifying them of the vehicle’s location (without needing to push the “SOS” button)
and an agent will attempt to speak with the occupants to ascertain the
level of emergency and assistance required. If the occupants are unable to communicate, the agent automati-
cally treats the call as an emergency and helps to dispatch the necessary emergency services. ( P.64)
• An SRS airbag is deployed. • A seat belt pretensioner is activated.• The vehicle is involved in a severe
rear-end collision.*: In some cases, the call cannot be
made. ( P. 6 5 )
■SRS airbag deployment conditions
(SRS front airbags)
●The SRS front airbags will deploy in
the event of an impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to an approxi-
mately 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph] frontal collision with a fixed wall that does not move or deform).
However, this threshold velocity will be considerably higher in the following situ-
ations: • If the vehicle strikes an object, such as a parked vehicle or sign pole,
which can move or deform on impact • If the vehicle is involved in an under-ride collision, such as a collision in
which the front of the vehicle “under- rides”, or goes under, the bed of a truck
●Depending on the type of collision, it is possible that only the seat belt preten-
sioners will activate.
■SRS airbag deployment conditions (SRS side and curtain shield air-bags)
●The SRS side and curtain shield air-bags will deploy in the event of an
impact that exceeds the set threshold level (the level of force corresponding to the impact force produced by an
approximately 1500 kg [3300 lb.] vehi- cle colliding with the vehicle cabin from a direction perpendicular to the
vehicle orientation at an approximate speed of 20 - 30 km/h [12 - 18 mph]).
●Both SRS curtain shield airbags may also deploy in the event of a severe frontal collision.
■Conditions under which the SRS airbags may deploy (inflate), other than a collision
The SRS front airbags and SRS side and curtain shield airbags may also deploy if a serious impact occurs to the
underside of your vehicle. Some exam- ples are shown in the illustration.

■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

extended periods.
■Operating your vehicle in a foreign
country
Comply with the relevant vehicle regis- tration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. ( P.345)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle (vehi-
cles with Multidrive)
Always keep your foot on the brake pedal while stopped with the engine
running. This prevents the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamiliar with the location of the brake and
accelerator pedals to avoid depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel- erator pedal instead of the brake pedal will result in sudden accelera-
tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to a diffi- culty in operating the pedals. Make sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when moving the
vehicle only slightly. This allows you to depress the brake and accelera-tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the brake
pedal using your left foot may delay response in an emergency, result-ing in an accident.
●Do not drive the vehicle over or stop the vehicle near flammable materials.
The exhaust system and exhaust gases can be extremely hot. These hot parts may cause a fire if there is
any flammable material nearby.
●During normal driving, do not turn
off the engine. 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 difficult to steer and brake, so you
should pull over and stop the vehi- cle as soon as it is safe to do so.However, in the event of an emer-
gency, such as if it becomes impos- sible to stop the vehicle in the normal way: P. 2 9 6
●Use engine braking (downshift) to maintain a safe speed when driving
down a steep hill. Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and
lose effectiveness. ( P.135, 139)
●Do not adjust the positions of the
steering wheel, the seat, or the inside or outside rear view mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Always check that all passengers’ arms, heads or other parts of their body are not outside the vehicle.
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
●Sudden braking, acceleration and steering may cause tire slippage and reduce your ability to control
the vehicle.
●Sudden acceleration, engine brak-
ing due to shifting, or changes in engine speed could cause the vehi-cle to skid.

Driving
WARNING
●After driving through a puddle, lightly depress the brake pedal to
make sure that the brakes are func- tioning properly. Wet brake pads may prevent the brakes from func-
tioning properly. If the brakes on only one side are wet and not func-tioning properly, steering control
may be affected.
■When shifting the shift lever
●Vehicles with Multidrive: Do not let the vehicle roll backward while a forward driving position is selected,
or roll forward while the shift lever is in R.Doing so may cause the engine to
stall or lead to poor brake and steering performance, resulting in an accident or damage to the vehi-
cle.
●Vehicles with Multidrive: Do not
shift the shift lever to P while the vehicle is moving.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do no t sh i ft t h e sh if t l e ve r t o R whi l e the vehicle is moving forward.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift lever to a driv-ing position while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmis- sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Moving the shift lever to N while the vehicle is moving will disengage the
engine from the transmission. Engine braking is not available when N is selected.
●Vehicles with Multidrive: Be careful not to shift the shift lever with the accelerator pedal depressed. Shift-
ing the shift lever to any positions other than P or N may lead to unex-pected rapid acceleration of the
vehicle that may cause an accident and result in death or serious injury.
■If you hear a squealing or scrap-ing noise (brake pad wear indica-tors)
Have the brake pads checked and replaced by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer,
or any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
Rotor damage may result if the pads are not replaced when needed.
It is dangerous to drive the vehicle when the wear limits of the brake pads and/or those of the brake discs
are exceeded.
■When the vehicle is stopped
●Do not race the engine. If the vehicle is in any gear other than P (Multidrive) or N, the vehicle
may accelerate suddenly and unex- pectedly, causing an accident.
●Vehicles with Multidrive: In order to prevent accidents due to the vehi-cle rolling away, always keep
depressing the brake pedal while the engine is running, and apply the parking brake as necessary.
●If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent acci-
dents caused by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, always depress the brake pedal and
securely apply the parking brake as needed.

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.

4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
The system can detect the follow-
ing (The detectable objects differs
depending on the function.):
 Vehicles
 Bicyclists
 Pedestrians
■Pre-collision warning
When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, a buzzer will sound and a
warning message will be displayed
on the multi-information display to
urge the driver to take evasive
action.
“BRAKE!”
■Pre-collision brake assist
When the system determines that
the possibility of a frontal collision is
high, the system applies greater
braking force in relation to how
strongly the brake pedal is
depressed.
■Pre-collision braking
If the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision is
extremely high, the brakes are
automatically applied to help avoid
the collision or reduce the impact of
the collision.
■Emergency steering assist
If the system determines that the
possibility of a collision with a
PCS (Pre-Collision Sys-
tem)
The pre-collision system uses
a radar sensor and front cam-
era to detect objects ( P.161)
in front of the vehicle. When
the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision
with an object is high, a warn-
ing operates to urge the driver
to take evasive action and the
potential brake pressure is
increased to he lp the driver
avoid the collision. If the sys-
tem determines that the possi-
bility of a frontal collision with
an object is extremely high, the
brakes are automatically
applied to help avoid the colli-
sion or help reduce the impact
of the collision.
The pre-collision system can be
disabled/enabled and the warn-
ing timing can be changed.
