2104-1. Before driving
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
QImportant points regarding stability
Vehicle movement resulting from uneven road surfaces and strong
crosswinds will affect handling. The vehicle may also be rocked by
passing buses or large trucks. Frequently check behind when mov-
ing alongside such vehicles. As soon as such vehicle movement
occurs, immediately start to decelerate smoothly by slowly applying
the brakes. Always steer the vehicle straight ahead while braking.
QPassing other vehicles
Consider the total combined length of your vehicle and trailer and
ensure that the vehicle-to-vehicle distance is sufficient before exe-
cuting lane changes.
QTransmission information
Vehicles with manual transmission: To maintain engine braking effi-
ciency when using engine braking, do not use 5th gear and 6th
gear.
Vehicles with automatic transmission: To maintain engine braking
efficiency when using engine braking, do not use the transmission
in D. Transmission shift range position must be in 4 or lower, in S
mode.
QIf the engine overheats
Towing a loaded trailer up a long, steep incline in temperatures
exceeding 30 C (85F) may result in the engine overheating. If the
engine coolant temperature gauge indicates that the engine is over-
heating, turn the air conditioning off immediately, leave the road and
stop the vehicle in a safe place. ( P. 610)
QWhen parking the vehicle
Always place wheel chocks under the wheels of both the vehicle
and trailer. Firmly set the parking brake and shift the shift lever to P
for automatic transmissions, and 1 or R for manual transmissions.

2364-2. Driving procedures
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
Q S mode
When the shift range is 4 or lower, holding the shift lever toward “+” sets the
shift range to 6.
Q Downshifting restrictions warning buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving per formance, downshifting operation may
sometimes be restricted. In some circumstances, downshifting may not be
possible even when the shift lever is operated. (A buzzer will sound twice.)
Q Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode (vehicles
with automatic air conditioning system)
Eco drive mode controls the heating/cooling operations and fan speed of the
air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency ( P. 446). To improve air
conditioning performance, adjust the fan speed or turn off Eco drive mode.
Q Deactivation of the driving mode
O Eco drive mode will not be canceled until the “ECO” switch is pressed, even
if the engine is turned off after driving in Eco drive mode.
O Power mode will be canceled if the engine is turned off after driving in power
mode.
O Driving mode will be canceled if the transfer mode is shifted to L4 while the
driving mode is in other than normal mode. (if equipped)
Q When driving with cruise control or dynamic radar cruise control acti-
vated (if equipped)
Even when performing the following actions with the intent of enabling engine
braking, engine braking will not activate because cruise control or dynamic
radar cruise control will not be canceled.
O While driving in S mode, downshifting to 5 or 4. (P. 235)
O When switching the driving mode to power mode while driving in D.
( P. 233)
Q Restraining sudden start (Drive-Start Control) (vehicles with VSC sys-
tem)
 P. 195
Q Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to prevent accidental operation of the shift
lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the engine switch is in the
“ON” position (vehicles without smart entry & start system) or IGNITION ON
mode (vehicles with smart entry & start system) and the brake pedal is being
depressed.

2444-2. Driving procedures
HILUX_OM_OM0K513E_(EE)
Q Operation of the air conditioning system in Eco drive mode (vehicles
with automatic air conditioning system)
Eco drive mode controls the heating/cooling operations and fan speed of the
air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency ( P. 446). To improve air
conditioning performance, adjust the fan speed or turn off Eco drive mode.
Q Deactivation of the driving mode
O Eco drive mode will not be canceled until the “ECO” button is pressed, even
if the engine is turned off after driving in Eco drive mode.
O Power mode will be canceled if the engine is turned off after driving in power
mode.
O Driving mode will be canceled if the transfer mode is shifted to L4 while the
driving mode is in other than normal mode. (if equipped)
Q Reverse warning buzzer (6-speed transmission)
A buzzer will sound to alert the driver if the shift lever is shifted to the R posi-
tion.
Q Operation of iMT
O When the clutch pedal is depressed and the shift lever is moved to a posi-
tion, iMT controls the engine speed to be optimal for changing the shift posi-
tion. However, iMT stops operating before the shift position is changed if the
clutch pedal is not released for a while, and the engine speed cannot be
controlled. To operate iMT again, depress the clutch pedal and operate the
shift lever.
O The engine speed may be increased when the clutch pedal is depressed,
however, this does not indicate a malfunction.
Q When iMT does not operate
In the following situations, iMT may not operate. However, this does not indi-
cate a malfunction.
O The shift lever is not operated for a long time after the clutch pedal is
depressed.
O The vehicle moves for a while after the shift lever is shifted to N and the
clutch pedal is released, and then the clutch pedal is depressed and the
shift lever is moved to a position.
O The clutch pedal is not completely released and depressed again.
O The clutch pedal is not fully depressed.
Q If the warning message for iMT is shown on the multi-information dis-
play
iMT may be malfunctioning and the function is disabled. Have the vehicle
inspected at any authorized Toyota reta iler or Toyota authorized repairer, or
any reliable repairer as soon as possible.
