reflects radio waves, such as a large
truck or guardrail • When driving near a TV tower, broad-casting station, electric power plant,
radar equipped vehicles, etc., or other location where strong radio waves or electrical noise may be present
• When there are many things which can reflect the radio waves of the radar in the vicinity (tunnels, truss
bridges, gravel roads, snow covered road that have tracks, etc.)• For region A: While making a right/left
turn, when an oncoming vehicle or a crossing pedestrian has already exited the path of your vehicle
• For region A: While making a right/left turn, closely in front of an oncoming vehicle or a crossing pedestrian.
• For region A: While making a right/left turn, when an oncoming vehicle or a crossing pedestrian stops before
entering the path of your vehicle • For region A: While making a right/left turn, when an oncoming vehicle turns
right/left in front of your vehicle
• For region A: While steering into the
direction of oncoming traffic
■Situations in which the system may not operate properly
●In some situations such as the follow-ing, an object may not be detected by the radar sensor and front camera,
preventing the system from operating properly:• When a detectable object is
approaching your vehicle • When your vehicle or a detectable object is wobbling
• If a detectable object makes an abrupt maneuver (such as sudden swerving, acceleration or deceleration)
• When your vehicle approaches a
detectable object rapidly • When a detectable object is not directly in front of your vehicle
• When a detectable object is near a wall, fence, guardrail, manhole cover,
vehicle, steel plate on the road, etc. • When a detectable object is under a structure
• When part of a detectable object is hidden by an object, such as large baggage, an umbrella, or guardrail
• When there are many things which can reflect the radio waves of the radar in the vicinity (tunnels, truss
bridges, gravel roads, snow covered road that have tracks, etc.)• When there is an effect on the radio
waves to the radar that is installed on another vehicle• When multiple detectable objects are
close together • If the sun or other light is shining directly on a detectable object
• When a detectable object is a shade of white and looks extremely bright• When a detectable object appears to
be nearly the same color or brightness as its surroundings• If a detectable object cuts or suddenly
emerges in front of your vehicle • When the front of your vehicle is hit by water, snow, dust, etc.
• When a very bright light ahead, such as the sun or the headlights of oncom-ing traffic, shines directly into the front
camera • When approaching the side or front of a vehicle ahead
• If a vehicle ahead is a motorcycle • If a vehicle ahead is narrow, such as a personal mobility vehicle
• If a preceding vehicle has a small rear

4-5. Using the driving support systems
■TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and
prevent the drive wheels from spin-
ning when starting the vehicle or
accelerating on slippery roads
■Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward
movement of the vehicle when
starting on an uphill
■EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort needed
to turn the steering wheel.
■Active Torque Split AWD sys-
tem
Automatically switches from front-
wheel drive to all-wheel drive
(AWD) according to the driving con-
ditions, helping to ensure reliable
handling and stability. Examples of
conditions where the system will
switch to AWD are when cornering,
going uphill, starting off or acceler-
ating, and when the road surface is
slippery due to snow, rain, etc.
■Emergency brake signal
When the brakes are applied sud-
denly, the emergency flashers auto-
matically flash to alert the vehicle
behind.
■The secondary Collision Brake
(if equipped)
When the SRS airbag sensor
detects a collision and the system
operates, the brakes and brake
lights are automatically controlled
to reduce the vehicle speed and
help reduce the possibility of further
damage due to a secondary colli-
sion.
■When the TRC/VSC systems are operating
The slip indicator light will flash while the
TRC/VSC systems are operating.
■Disabling the TRC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt or
snow, the TRC system may reduce
power from the engine to the wheels.
Pressing to turn the system off may
make it easier for you to rock the vehicle
in order to free it.
To turn the TRC system off, quickly
press and release .
The “TRC OFF” indicator light will come
on.
Press again to turn the system
back on.
■Turning off both TRC and VSC sys-
tems
To turn the TRC and VSC systems off,

7-1. Essential information
When trouble arises
p re ss it b ri efl y 3 tim es or mor e i n
succession.
5 Stop the vehicle in a safe place
by the road.
 Remove the seat belt first.
 If the door can be opened, open
the door and exit the vehicle.
 If the door cannot be opened,
open the window using the
power window switch and exit
the vehicle through the window.
 If the window cannot be opened
using the power window switch,
remain calm, wait until the water
level inside the vehicle rises to
the point that the water pressure
inside of the vehicle equals the
water pressure outside of the
vehicle, and then open the door
and exit the vehicle.
WARNING
■If the engine has to be turned off while driving
Power assist for the brakes and steer-
ing wheel will be lost, making the brake pedal harder to depress and the steering wheel heavier to turn.
Decelerate as much as possible before turning off the engine.
If the vehicle is trapped
in rising water
In the event the vehicle is sub-
merged in water, remain calm
and perform the following.
WARNING
■Using an emergency hammer* f o r
emergency escape
The front side windows and of this vehicle rear window can be shattered
with an emergency hammer* used for emergency escape. However, an
emergency hammer* cannot shatter
the windshield as it is laminated glass.*: Contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer, or
aftermarket accessory manufac-
turer for further information about
an emergency hammer.

ble.
■Electric power steering system
warning light (warning buzzer)
When the battery charge becomes insufficient or the voltage temporarily
drops, the electric power steering sys- tem warning light may come on and the warning buzzer may sound.
■When the tire pressure warning
light comes on
Inspect the tires to check if a tire is punctured.
If a tire is punctured: P. 3 2 3
If none of the tires are punctured: Turn the engine switch off then turn it to
ON. Check if the tire pressure warning light comes on or blinks.
If the tire pressure warning light blinks
for approximately 1 minute then stays on
There may be a malfunction in the tire
pressure warning system. Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer immedi- ately.
If the tire pressure warning light
comes on
1 After the temperature of the tires has lowered sufficiently, check the infla-tion pressure of each tire and adjust
them to the specified level.
2 If the warning light does not turn off even after several minutes have elapsed, check that the inflation
pressure of each tire is at the speci- fied level and perform initialization. ( P.280)
■The tire pressure warning light may
come on due to natural causes
The tire pressure warning light may come on due to natural causes such as
natural air leaks and tire inflation pres- sure changes caused by temperature. In this case, adjusting the tire inflation
pressure will turn off the warning light (after a few minutes).
■Conditions that the tire pressure
warning system may not function properly
 P. 2 7 8
WARNING
■If both the ABS and the brake system warning lights remain on
Stop your vehicle in a safe place
immediately and contact any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
The vehicle will become extremely unstable during braking, and the ABS system may fail, which could cause
an accident resulting in death or seri- ous injury.
■When the electric power steer-ing system warning light comes on
When the light comes on yellow, the assist to the power steering is restricted. When the light comes on
red, the assist to the power steering is lost and handling operations of the steering wheel become extremely
heavy. When steering wheel operations are heavier than usual, grip the steering
wheel firmly and operate it using more force than usual.
■If the tire pressure warning light comes on
Be sure to observe the following pre-
cautions. Failure to do so could cause a loss of vehicle control and result in death or
serious injury.
●Stop your vehicle in a safe place as
soon as possible. Adjust the tire inflation pressure immediately.
●Avoid abrupt maneuvering and braking.If the vehicle tires deteriorate, you
could lose control of the steering wheel or the brakes.
