data, such as:
• Engine speed/Electric motor speed (traction motor speed)
• Accelerator status
• Brake status

• Images from the cameras
Your vehicle is equipped with cameras. Contact any authorized Toyota

images outside of the vehicle in certain situations.
OData usage
Toyota may use the data recorded in this computer to diagnose malfunc-
tions, conduct research and development, and improve quality.
Toyota will not disclose the recorded data to a third party except:
• With the consent of the vehicle owner or with the consent of the lessee if
the vehicle is leased
• In response to an official request by the police, a court of law or a govern-
ment agency
• For use by Toyota in a lawsuit
• For research purposes where the data is not tied to a specific vehicle or
vehicle owner
ORecorded image information can be erased by any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
The image recording function can be disabled. However, if the function is
disabled, data from when the system operates will not be available.
The SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner devices in your Toyota contain
explosive chemicals. If the vehicle is scrapped with the airbags and seat belt
pretensioners left as they are, this may cause an accident such as fire. Be
sure to have the systems of the SRS airbag and seat belt pretensioner
removed and disposed of by a qualified service shop or by any authorized
Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer, before
you scrap your vehicle.
