To change the set speed, operate the lever until the desired set speed
is obtained.
Increases the speed
Decreases the speed
Fine adjustment: Momentarily
move the lever in the desired direc-
tion.
Large adjustment: Hold the lever in
the desired direction.
The set speed will be increased or decreased as follows:
Fine adjustment: By approximately 1.0 km/h (0.6 mph) each time the lever
is operated.
Large adjustment: The set speed can be increased or decreased continu-
ally until the lever is released.
Pulling the lever toward you
cancels the constant speed
control.
The speed setting is also canceled
when the brakes are applied or the
clutch pedal (manual transmission
only) is depressed.
Pushing the lever up resumes
the constant speed control.
Resuming is available when the vehicle speed is more than approximately
30 km/h (20 mph).

WARNING
QTo avoid operating the cruise control by mistake
Switch the cruise control off using the “ON-OFF” button when not in use.
Q Situations unsuitable for cruise control
Do not use cruise control in any of the following situations.
Doing so may result in loss of control and could cause an accident resulting
in death or serious injury.
O In heavy traffic
O On roads with sharp bends
O On winding roads
O On slippery roads, such as those covered with rain, ice or snow

O The sensor is frozen. (Thawing the area will resolve this problem.)
In especially cold weather, if a sensor is frozen, the screen may show an
abnormal display, or objects may not be detected.
O The sensor is covered in any way.
O On an extremely bumpy road, on an incline, on gravel, or on grass
O When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of
large vehicles, the clearance sonar of ot her vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle.
O A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
O If objects draw too close to the sensor.
O When a pedestrian is wearing clothing that does not reflect ultrasonic waves
(ex. skirts with gathers or frills).
O When objects that are not perpendicular to the ground, not perpendicular to
the vehicle traveling direction, uneven, or waving are in the detection range.
O Strong wind is blowing.
O When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm.
O When an object that cannot be detected is between the vehicle and a
detected object.
O If an object such as a vehicle, motorcycle, bicycle or pedestrian cuts in front
of the vehicle or runs out from the side of the vehicle.
O If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact.
O When equipment that may obstruct a sensor is installed, such as a towing
eyelet, bumper protector (an additional trim strip, etc.), bicycle carrier, or
snow plow.
O If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load.
O If the vehicle cannot be driven in a stable manner, such as when the vehicle
has been in an accident or is malfunctioning.
O When tire chains, a compact spare tire or an emergency tire puncture repair
kit are used.
O When a sensor or the area around a
sensor is extremely hot or cold

Q Situations in which the system may operate even if there is no possibil-
ity of a collision
In some situations, such as the following, the system may operate even
though there is no possibility of a collision.
O When driving toward a banner, flag, low-hanging branch or boom barrier
(such as those used at railroad crossings, toll gates and parking lots).
O When there is a rut or hole in the surface of the road.
O When driving on a metal cover (grating), such as those used for drainage
ditches.
O When driving up or down a steep slope.
O If a sensor is hit by a large amount of water, such as when driving on a
flooded road.
O There is dirt, snow, water drops or ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the sensors
will resolve this problem.)
O A sensor is coated with a sheet of spray or heavy rain.
O When driving in inclement weather such as fog, snow or a sandstorm.
O When vehicle horns, vehicle detectors, motorcycle engines, air brakes of
large vehicles, the clearance sonar of ot her vehicles or other devices which
produce ultrasonic waves are near the vehicle.
O If the front of the vehicle is raised or lowered due to the carried load.
O If the orientation of a sensor has been changed due to a collision or other
impact.
O The vehicle is approaching a tall or curved curb.
O Driving close to columns (H-shaped steel beams, etc.) in multi-story parking
garages, construction sites, etc.
O When driving on a narrow road.
O When strong winds are blowing.

WARNING
QTrailer Sway Control precaution
The Trailer Sway Control system is not able to reduce trailer sway in all situ-
ations. Depending on many factors such as the conditions of the vehicle,
trailer, road surface, and driving envi ronment, the Trailer Sway Control sys-
tem may not be effective. Refer to your trailer owner’s manual for informa-
tion on how to tow your trailer properly.
Q If trailer sway occurs (vehicles with Trailer Sway Control)
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may cause death or serious injury.
O Firmly grip the steering wheel. Steer straight ahead.
Do not try to control trailer sway by turning the steering wheel.
O Begin releasing the accelerator pedal immediately but very gradually to
reduce speed.
Do not increase speed. Do not apply vehicle brakes.
If you make no extreme correction with the steering or brakes, your vehicle
and trailer should stabilize. ( P. 215)

QAdding engine oil
If the oil level is below or near
the low level mark, add engine
oil of the same type as that
already in the engine.
Make sure to check the oil type and prepare the items needed
before adding oil.
Remove the sand and dust from around the oil filler cap.
Remove the oil filler cap by turning it counterclockwise.
Add engine oil slowly, checking the dipstick.
Install the oil filler cap by turning it clockwise.
Q Engine oil consumption
A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the following
situations, oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be
refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.
O When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or
after replacing the engine
O If low quality oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used
O When driving at high engine speeds or with a heavy load, when towing (with
towing hitch), or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently
O When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently
through heavy traffic

AdBlue™ is used to reduce the amount of nitrogen oxides in exhaust
gas. Make sure to observe the following precautions regarding
AdBlue™.
O AdBlue™ is consumed in the process of driving.
O When AdBlue™ is depleted, the engine cannot be restarted.
O When AdBlue™ needs to be refilled, have it refilled at any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer.
It may be a criminal offence to use a vehicle that does not consume
any reagent if it is required for the reduction of emissions.
QPossible driving range
The amount of AdBlue™ that is consumed while driving differs
according to the driving conditions and driving environment. When
the amount of AdBlue™ that is consumed increases, the possible
driving range until it is necessary to refill AdBlue™ decreases.
*1: When the vehicle is used at high elevations and in low temperatures, the
amount of AdBlue™ that is consumed increases.
*2: During normal driving, 1.0 L (1.1 qt., 0.9 Imp.qt.) of AdBlue™ is con-
sumed approximately every 600 km (373 miles). Also, after a full refill, the
vehicle can be driven for approximately 10000 km (6214 miles) before all
AdBlue™ is depleted.
