memory after turning the power switch to OFF
Recorded seat positions can be acti-
vated up to 180 seconds after the driver’s door is opened and another 60 seconds after it is closed again.
■In order to correctly use the driving
position memory function
If a seat position is already in the fur- thest possible position and the seat is
operated in the same direction, the recorded position may be slightly differ-ent when it is recalled.

WARNING
●Use regenerative braking to main- tain a safe speed when driving
down a steep hill. Using the brakes continuously may cause the brakes to overheat and lose effectiveness.
( P.251)
●If “Regenerative braking limited.
Press brake to decelerate.” appears on the multi-information display, firmly depress the brake pedal to
decelerate the vehicle. ( P.523)
●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.
●AWD models: Do not drive the vehi-cle off-road.
This is not a AWD vehicle designed for off-road driving. Proceed with all due caution if it becomes unavoid-
able to drive off-road.
●Do not drive across a river or
through other bodies of water. This may cause electric/electronic components to short circuit, dam-
age the EV system or cause other serious damage to 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 or regenera-tive braking due to shift changing
could cause the vehicle to skid, resulting in an accident.
●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 position
●Do not let the vehicle roll backward
while a forward driving position is selected, or roll forward while the shift position is in R.
Doing so may result in an accident or damage to the vehicle.
●Do not shift the shift position to P while the vehicle is moving.Doing so can damage the transmis-
sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Do not shift the shift position to R while 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 position to a driving position while the vehicle is moving backward.
Doing so can damage the transmis- sion and may result in a loss of vehicle control.
●Changing the shift position to N while the vehicle is moving will dis-
engage the EV system. Regenera- tive braking is not available with the EV system disengaged.

WARNING
●Be careful not to change the shift position with the accelerator pedal
depressed. Changing the shift position to any position other than P or N may lead
to unexpected rapid acceleration of the vehicle that may cause an acci-dent and result in death or serious
injury. After changing the shift position, make sure to confirm the current
shift position displayed on the shift position indicator inside the meter.
■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 depress the accelerator pedal unnecessarily.
If the shift position is in any position other than P or N, the vehicle may accelerate suddenly and unexpect-
edly, causing an accident.
●In order to prevent accidents due to
the vehicle rolling away, always keep depressing the brake pedal while stopped with the “READY”
indicator is illuminated, 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.
■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.

WARNING
●Always apply the parking brake, shift the shift position to P, stop the
EV system and lock the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle unat-tended while the “READY” indicator
is illuminated. If the vehicle is parked with the shift position in P but the parking brake
is not set, the vehicle may start to move, possibly leading to an acci-dent.
■When taking a nap in the vehicle
Always turn the EV system off. Other-
wise, you may accidentally move the shift position or depress the accelera-tor pedal, causing the vehicle to unin-
tentionally move, which can lead to an accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
■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 electronically controlled brake
system does not operate, do not fol- low other vehicles 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.
●The brake system consists of 2 or more individual hydraulic systems; if one of the systems fails, the
other(s) 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 (AWD models)
Do not spin the wheels excessively when any of the tires 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
●Do not depress the accelerator and
brake pedals at the same time during driving, as this may restrain the EV system 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.
■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.
