■Auto power off function
If the vehicle is left in ACC for more than
20 minutes or ON (the EV system is not operating) for more than an hour with the shift position in P, the power switch
will automatically turn off. However, this function cannot entirely prevent the 12-volt battery discharge. Do not leave the
vehicle with the power switch in ACC or ON for long periods of time when the EV system is not operating.
WARNING
■Stopping the EV system in an emergency
●If you want to stop the EV system in an emergency while driving the vehicle, press and hold the power
switch for more than 2 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times or more in succession. ( P.506)
However, do not touch the power switch while driving except in an emergency. Turning the EV system
off while driving will not cause loss of steering or braking control, how-ever, power assist to the steering
will be lost. This will make it more difficult to steer smoothly, so you should pull over and stop the vehi-
cle as soon as it is safe to do so.
●If the power switch is operated
while the vehicle is running, a warn- ing message will be shown on the multi-information display and a
buzzer sounds.
●When restarting the EV system
after an emergency shutdown, press the power switch.

the power switch will turn off)*
●If the driver’s door is opened and all of
the following conditions are met, while the shift position is in a position other than P:
• The power switch is in ON. • The driver is not wearing the seat belt.• The brake pedal is not depressed.
To start off the vehicle after the shift
position is changed to P, operate the
rotary shifter again.
●When the vehicle is stopped after the EV system has been stopped in an
emergency while driving
●When voltage of the 12-volt battery
drops while the shift position is in a position other than P*: When the power switch is pressed
while driving at extremely slow
speeds, such as immediately before
stopping the vehicle, the shift position
may automatically change to P. Make
sure that the vehicle is completely
stopped before pressing the power
switch.
■If the shift position cannot be
shifted from P
There is a possibility that the 12-volt bat- tery is discharged. Check the 12-volt
battery in this situation. ( P.544)
■Customization
Some functions can be customized.
( P.567)
WARNING
■For the rotary shifter
●Do not remove the rotary shifter knob or use anything but a genuine
Toyota rotary shifter knob. Also, do not hang anything on the rotary shifter.
Doing so could prevent the rotary shifter from returning to position, causing unexpected accidents to
occur when the vehicle is in motion.
●In order to prevent the shift position
from accidentally being changed, do not touch the rotary shifter when not using it.
■P position switch
●Do not press the P position switch
while the vehicle is moving. If the P position switch is pressed when driving at very low speeds (for
example, directly before stopping the vehicle), the vehicle may stop suddenly when the shift position
switches to P, which could lead to an accident.
●In order to prevent the shift position from accidentally being changed, do not touch the P position switch
when not using it.
NOTICE
■When exiting the vehicle (driver’s seat only)
Check that the shift position indicator
shows P and that the parking brake indicator is illuminated before opening the door and exiting the vehicle.

Acceleration/deceleration control
can be performed only by operating
the accelerator pedal, and the fre-
quency of switching to the brake
pedal can be greatly reduced.
Since the deceleration when the
accelerator pedal is released is
stronger than that of a conventional
vehicle, the vehicle can be deceler-
ated smoothly by slowly releasing
the pedal the accelerator pedal

Driving
Constant speed cruising:
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle drives at the speed set by the driver.
If the set vehicle speed is exceeded while driving down a hill, the set vehicle speed
display will blink and a buzzer will sound.
Deceleration and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set vehicle sp eed is
detected
When a vehicle is detected driving ahead of your vehicle, the v ehicle automatically
decelerates and if a greater reduction in vehicle speed is nece ssary, the brakes are
applied (the stop lights will come on at this time). The vehicl e is controlled to main-
tain the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver, in acco rdance with changes in
the speed of the preceding vehicle. If vehicle deceleration is not sufficient and the
vehicle approaches the vehicle ahead, the approach warning will sound.
Acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the
set vehicle speed
The vehicle accelerates until the set vehicle speed is reached and then resumes
constant speed cruising.
Starting off: If a preceding vehicle stops, the vehicle will al so stop (con-
trolled stop). After the preceding vehicle starts off, pressing the “RES”
switch or depressing the accelerator pedal will resume follow-u p cruising
(start off operation). If a start off operation is not performe d, the con-

5-4. Using the driving support systems
The actual vehicle-to-vehicle distance
varies in accordance with the vehicle
speed. Also, when the vehicle is
stopped by system control, it will be
stopped at a certain distance from the
preceding vehicle, depending on the
situation, regardless of the setting.
■Operating conditions
●D shift position is selected.
●The desired set speed can be set when the vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 30 km/h (20 mph) or more. (If the vehicle speed is set while driving at below approximately 30 km/h [20
mph], the set speed will be set to approximately 30 km/h [20 mph].)
■Accelerating after setting the vehi-cle speed
As with normal driving, acceleration can
be performed by depressing the acceler-
ator pedal. After accelerating, the vehi- cle will return to the set vehicle speed. However, while in vehicle-to-vehicle dis-
tance control mode, the vehicle speed may decrease to below the set vehicle speed in order to maintain the distance
from the preceding vehicle.
■When the vehicle is stopped by system control during follow-up cruising
●When the “RES” switch is pressed while the vehicle is stopped by system
control, if the preceding vehicle starts off within approximately 3 seconds, follow-up cruising will resume.
●If the preceding vehicle starts off within approximately 3 seconds of the
vehicle being stopped by system con- trol, follow-up cruising will resume.
■Automatic cancelation of vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode
In the following situations, vehicle-to- vehicle distance control mode will be canceled automatically:
●When the brake control or output restriction control of a driving support
system operates (For example: Pre- Collision System, drive-start control)
●When the parking brake has been operated
●When the vehicle is stopped by sys-tem control on a steep incline
●When any of the following are detected while the vehicle is stopped by system control:
• The driver’s seat belt is unfastened • The driver’s door is opened• Approximately 3 minutes have
elapsed since the vehicle was stopped
The parking brake may be actived auto-
matically.
The shift position may automatically change to P. ( P.250)

■LTA control when operation is can- celed
When emergency driving stop system
operation is canceled, LTA control may also be canceled.
If driving operations are not
detected after the hands off steer-
ing wheel warning operates, a
buzzer will sound intermittently and
a message will be displayed to
warn the driver, and the system will
judge if the driver is responsive or
not. If driving operations, such as
holding the steering wheel, are not
performed within a certain amount
of time, the system will enter warn-
ing phase 2.
Vehicles with a driver monitor cam-
era: Depending on the type of
detection of the driver’s unrespon-
siveness, the system may skip
warning phase 1 and start the con-
trol of warning phase 2.
After entering warning phase 2, a
buzzer will sound in short intervals
and a message will be displayed to
warn the driver, and the vehicle will
slowly decelerate. If driving opera-
tions, such as holding the steering
wheel, are not performed within a
certain amount of time, the system
will determine that the driver is not
responsive and enter the decelera-
tion stop phase.
The audio system will be muted until
the driver becomes responsive.
When the vehicle is decelerating, the
brake lights may illuminate, depending
on the road conditions, etc.
After the vehicle has decelerated a cer-
tain amount, the emergency flashers
(hazard lights) will flash.
After the driver is judged as being
not responsive, a buzzer will sound
continuously and a message will be
displayed to warn the driver, and
the vehicle will slowly decelerate
and stop. While the vehicle is
decelerating, the emergency flash-
ers (hazard lights) will flash to warn
other drivers of the emergency.
After the vehicle is stopped, the
parking brake will be applied auto-
matically. After entering the stop
and hold phase, the buzzer will
continue sounding continuously, the
emergency flashers (hazard lights)
will flash to warn other drivers of
the emergency, and the doors will
unlock.
