■To prevent battery discharge
Do not stop the engine when the shift lever is in a position other than P. If
the engine is stopped in another shift
lever position, the engine switch will not be turned off but instead be
turned to ACC mode. If the vehicle is
left in ACC, battery discharge may occur.

■Downshifting restriction warning buzzer
If downshifting operations are performed
at a vehicle speed by which downshifting is not possible (when
downshifting will cause the engine
speed to enter the red zone), a buzzer will sound to warn the driver that
downshifting cannot be performed.
To enter manual mode, shift the
shift lever to the M position.
When the Gear Shift Indicator is on,
gears can be selected by operating
the shift lever or paddle shift
switches, allowing you to drive in
the gear of your choosing.
The Gear Shift Indicator display is a
guide to help the driver achieve
improved fuel economy and
reduced exhaust emissions within
limits of engine performance.
Even if upshifting operations are per-
formed, if vehicle speed is too low for
the requested gear, the gear will not
change.

Each time the shift lever or paddle shift
switches are operated, the gear
changes up or down one gear and the
selected gear, “1” through “6”, will be
set.
The selected gear, from M1 to M6, will
be fixed and displayed on the meter.
When in manual mo de, the gear will
not change unless the shift lever or
paddle shift switches are operated.
However, even when in the manual
mode, the gears will be automati-
cally changed in the following situa-
tion:
When vehicle speed drops
(downshift only).
When engine oil temperature is
high and engine speed rises
close to the red zone.

■Gear Shift Indicator
The indication of the gear shift indica- tor is only as a guideline for driving
more fuel-efficiently. The indicator
does not inform the driver about the safe shift operation timing. The driver
has the responsibility for suitable shift
operation depending on the traffic conditions or driving conditions (e.g.,
overtaking or driving on an uphill
slope).
This indicator supports the driver to
drive more fuel-efficiently. The vehicle
system determines the shift opera- tion timing depending on the driving
conditions, and informs the driver by
the indicator on the meter. For details, refer to Gear shift indicator.

Close both side doors and win-

off.
Confirm the type of fuel.
■Fuel types

To help prevent incorrect fueling, your vehicle has a fuel tank opening that only
accommodates the special nozzle on
unleaded fuel pumps.

WA R N I N G
■When refueling the vehicle
Observe the following precautions
while refueling the vehicle. Failure to
do so may result in death or serious injury.
●Do not handle fuel indoors.
●After exiting the vehicle and before
opening the fuel door, touch an unpainted metal surface to dis-
charge any static electricity. It is
important to discharge static elec- tricity before refueling because
sparks resulting from static electric-
ity can cause fuel vapors to ignite while refueling.
●Always hold the grips on the fuel tank cap and turn it slowly to
remove it.
A whooshing sound may be heard when the fuel tank cap is loosened.
Wait until the sound cannot be
heard before fully removing the cap. In hot weather, pressurized
fuel may spray out the filler neck
and cause injury.
●Do not allow anyone that has not
discharged static electricity from their body to come close to an open
fuel tank.
●Do not allow anyone to approach
the area of the vehicle near the fuel
filler pipe while refueling is in pro- gress.
●Do not inhale vaporized fuel.Fuel contains substances that are
harmful if inhaled.
●Do not smoke while refueling the
vehicle.
Doing so may cause the fuel to ignite and cause a fire.
●Do not return to the vehicle or touch any person or object that is stati-
cally charged.
This may cause static electricity to build up, resulting in a possible igni-
tion hazard.
■When refueling
Observe the following precautions to
prevent fuel overflowing from the fuel tank:
●Securely insert the fuel nozzle into the fuel filler neck.
●Stop filling the tank after the fuel
nozzle automatically clicks off.
●Do not top off the fuel tank.

1 With the doors unlocked, press
the center of the rear edge of
the fuel filler door.
Push until you hear a click and take your hand away to slightly open the fuel
filler door. Then open the door fully by
hand.
2 Turn the fuel tank cap slowly
and remove it, then put it into
the holder on the fuel filler door.
■When opening the fuel filler door
The fuel filler door cannot be opened if
the doors have been unlocked using a
inside lock button.
Unlock the doors using the entry func-
tion, wireless remote control, or door

NOTICE
■Refueling
●Do not spill fuel during refueling.
Doing so may damage the vehicle,
such as causing the emission con- trol system to ope rate abnormally
or damaging fuel system compo-
nents or the vehicle’s painted sur- face.
●Never add any cleaning agents to the fuel tank. The addition of a
cleaning agent may cause damage
to the fuel system.
●Immediately put fuel in the tank
whenever the low fuel warning light
illuminates. Engine misfires as a result of an empty tank could cause
damage to the engine.

When you lock the doors, the fuel filler door will also lock.
■When closing the fuel filler door
Do not lock the doors before closing the

the doors are locked and the fuel filler
door cannot be closed, unlock the doors and then close the fuel filler door.

■When replacing the fuel tank cap
Do not use anything but a genuine
Toyota fuel tank cap designed for your vehicle. Doing so may cause a fire or
other incident which may result in
death or serious injury.
