Restarting the engine (START mode)
The engine automatically restarts as soon as the driver indicates the intention of moving off again.– With a manual gearbox: with the clutch pedal fully depressed.– With an automatic gearbox:• With the selector in position D or M: with the brake pedal released.• With the selector in position N and the brake pedal released: with the selector at D or M.• With the selector in position P and the brake pedal depressed: with the selector at R, N, D or M.
Special cases
The engine will restart automatically if all conditions for operation are met again and in the following case.– Speed of the vehicle exceeds 3 km/h (2 mph) (depending on the engine).In this case, this indicator lamp flashes for a few seconds, then goes off.
Malfunctions
Depending on the vehicle’s equipment:In the event of a system malfunction, this warning lamp flashes on the instrument panel.The warning lamp in this button flashes and a message appears, accompanied by an audible signal.Have the vehicle checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
The vehicle stalls in STOP mode
All of the instrument panel warning lamps come on if there is a fault.Depending on version, a warning message may also be displayed, prompting you to place the gear selector in position N and depress the brake pedal.► Switch off the ignition then start the engine again with the key or the "START/STOP" button.

12 V batteryThe Stop & Start system requires a 12 V battery of specific technology and specification.All work must be carried out only by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Under-inflation detection
This system alerts the driver if one or more tyres suffer a drop in pressure.The alert is raised when the vehicle is moving, not when stationary.It compares the information given by the wheel speed sensors with reference values, which must be reinitialised every time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed.It takes into account the last values stored during the reinitialisation request. It is therefore essential that the tyre pressure is correct during the operation. This operation is the driver's responsibility.
WARNI NG
The tyre under-inflation detection cannot, in any circumstances, replace the need for vigilance on the part of the driver.This system does not avoid the need to regularly check the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel), especially before a long journey.Driving with under-inflated tyres, particularly in adverse conditions (heavy load, high speed, long journey):– worsens road-holding.– lengthens braking distances.– causes premature wear of the tyres.– increases energy consumption.
152
NOTIC E
The inflation pressures defined for the vehicle can be found on the tyre pressure label.For more information on the Identification markings, refer to the corresponding section.
WARNI NG
Checking tyre pressuresThis check should be done monthly when the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 10 km (6 miles) at moderate speeds).Otherwise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.
NOTIC E
Snow chainsThe system does not have to be reinitialised after fitting or removing snow chains.
NOTIC E
Spare wheelThe steel spare wheel does not have an under-inflation detection sensor.
Under-inflation alert
This is signalled by the fixed illumination of this warning lamp, accompanied by an audible signal and, depending on equipment, the display of a message.► Reduce speed immediately, avoid excessive steering movements and avoid sudden braking.► Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
WARNI NG
The loss of pressure detected may not always cause visible deformation of the tyre.Do not rely on just a visual check.
► Using a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check the pressures of all four tyres when cold.► If it is not possible to carry out this check immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.► In the event of a puncture, use the temporary puncture repair kit or the spare wheel (depending on equipment).
WARNI NG
Driving too slowly may not ensure optimum monitoring.The alert is not immediately triggered in the
event of a sudden loss of pressure or tyre blow-out. This is because analysis of the
values read by the wheel's speed sensors can take several minutes.The alert may be delayed at speeds below 25 mph (40 km/h), or when adopting a sporty driving mode.
NOTIC E
The alert is kept active until the system is reinitialised.
Reinitialisation
The system must be reinitialised after any adjustment to the pressure of one or more tyres, and after changing one or more wheels.
WARNI NG
Before reinitialising the system, make sure that the pressures of the four tyres are correct for the conditions of use of the vehicle and conform to the values written on the tyre pressure label.Check the pressures of the four tyres before performing the reinitialisation.The system does not advise if a pressure is incorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

Manoeuvring aidsThe driver must always check the surroundings of the vehicle before and during the whole manoeuvre, in particular using the mirrors.
WARNI NG
Radar(s)The operation of the radar(s), along with any associated functions, may be affected by the accumulation of dirt (e.g. mud, ice), in poor weather conditions (e.g. heavy rain, snow), or if the bumpers are damaged.If the front bumper is to be repainted, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer; certain types of paint could interfere with the operation of the radar(s).
WARNI NG
Driving aids cameraThis camera and its associated functions may be impaired or not work if the windscreen area in front of the camera is dirty, misty, frosty, covered with snow, damaged or masked by a sticker.In humid and cold weather, demist the windscreen regularly.Poor visibility (inadequate street lighting, heavy rain, thick fog, snowfall), dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light) can also impair
detection performance.In the event of a windscreen replacement, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer to recalibrate the camera; otherwise, the operation of the associated driving aids may be disrupted.
NOTIC E
Other camerasThe images from the camera(s) displayed on the touch screen or on the instrument panel may be distorted by the terrain.In the presence of areas in shade, or in conditions of bright sunlight or inadequate lighting, the image may be darkened and with lower contrast.Obstacles may appear further away than they actually are.
WARNI NG
SensorsThe operation of the sensors, as well as any associated functions, may be disrupted by noise pollution such as that emitted by noisy vehicles and machinery (e.g. lorries, pneumatic drills), by the accumulation of snow or dead leaves on the road or in the
event of damaged bumpers and mirrors.When reverse gear is engaged, an audible signal (long beep) indicates that the sensors may be dirty.A front or rear impact to the vehicle can upset the sensors’ settings, which is not always detected by the system: distance measurements may be distorted.
156
The sensors do not systematically detect obstacles that are too low (pavements, studs) or too thin (trees, posts, wire fences).Certain obstacles located in the sensors’ blind spots may not be detected or may no longer be detected during the manoeuvre.Certain materials (fabrics) absorb sound waves: pedestrians may not be detected.
NOTIC E
MaintenanceClean the bumpers and door mirrors and the field of vision of the cameras regularly.When washing your vehicle at high pressure, direct the spray from at least 30 cm away from the radar, sensors and cameras.
WARNI NG
Mats/Pedal trimsThe use of mats or pedal trims not approved
by TOYOTA may interfere with the operation of the speed limiter or cruise control.To avoid any risk of jamming the pedals:– Ensure that the mat is secured correctly.– Never fit one mat on top of another.
NOTIC E
Units of speedEnsure that the units of speed displayed on the instrument panel (km/h or mph) are those for the country you are driving in.If this is not the case, when the vehicle is stationary, set the display to the required units of speed so that it complies with what is authorised locally.In case of doubt, contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Speed Limit Recognition
and Recommendation
WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system displays the maximum speed authorised locally on the instrument panel, using:
– Speed limit signs detected by the camera.– Speed limit information from the navigation system's mapping.– Signs indicating a shared traffic zone detected by the camera.
Sign detectedSuggested speed (calculated)
Entry into an intersection areaExample:
Without TOYOTA Connect Nav20 km/h or 10 mph (depending on the units of the instrument panel)With TOYOTA Connect NavDisplay of the speed in force in the country in which you are driving.

WARNI NG
Navigation mapping should be regularly updated in order to receive accurate speed limit information from the system.
WARNI NG
The units for the speed limit (km/h or mph) depend on the country you are driving in.This should be taken into account so that you observe the speed limit.For the system to work correctly when changing country, the speed unit in the instrument panel must correspond to that of the country you are driving in.
WARNI NG
The automatic reading of road signs is a driving aid system and does not always display speed limits correctly.The speed limit signs present on the road always take priority over the display by the system. The system is designed to detect signs that conform to the Vienna Convention on road signs.
NOTIC E
Specific speed limits, such as those for heavy goods vehicles, are not displayed.The display of the speed limit in the
instrument panel is updated when passing a speed limit sign intended for cars (light vehicles).

WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– Insufficient contrast between the road surface and the verge or hard shoulders (e.g. shade).– Lane markings worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.).– Close proximity to the vehicle in front (lane markings may not be detected).– Roads that are narrow, winding.
Risk of undesirable operation
The system should be deactivated in the following situations:– When changing a wheel or working near a wheel.– Towing or with a bycicle carrier on a towing device, especially with trailer not plugged in or not approved.
– Road in poor condition, unstable or with very poor grip (risk of aquaplaning, snow, ice).– Adverse weather conditions.– Driving on racing circuit.– Driving on a rolling road.
Deactivation / Activation
► Press this button to deactivate / reactivate the system at any time. Deactivation is signalled by the lighting of the indicator lamp in the button and this warning lamp in the instrument panel.The system is automatically reactivated every time the ignition is switched on.
Malfunction
In the event of a system malfunction, these warning lamps come on on the instrument panel, accompanied by an onscreen message and an audible signal.Have the system checked by a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop.
Blind Spot Monitoring
System
WARNI NG
For more information, refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
This system includes sensors, placed on the sides of the bumpers, and warns the driver of the potentially dangerous presence of another vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) in the blind spot
areas of their vehicle (areas hidden from the driver's field of vision).
178
– In the presence of non-moving objects (parked vehicles, barriers, street lamps, road signs, etc.).– Oncoming traffic.– Driving on a winding road or a sharp corner.– When overtaking or being overtaken by a very long vehicle (lorry, bus, etc.) that is detected in the rear blind spot but is also present in the driver’s front field of vision.– When overtaking quickly.– In very heavy traffic: vehicles detected in front and behind are confused with a lorry or a stationary object.
Malfunction
If the event of malfunction, this warning lamp comes on in the instrument panel, accompanied by the display of a message.Contact a TOYOTA dealer or a qualified workshop to have the system checked.
NOTIC E
The system may suffer temporary interference in certain weather conditions (rain, hail, etc.).In particular, driving on a wet surface or moving from a dry area to a wet area can cause false alerts (for example, the presence of a fog of water droplets in the blind spot angle is interpreted as a vehicle).
In bad or wintry weather, ensure that the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow.Take care not to cover the warning zone in the door mirrors or the detection zones on the front and rear bumpers with adhesive labels or other objects; they may hamper correct operation of the system.
Distraction detection
WARNI NG
Refer to the General recommendations on the use of driving and manoeuvring aids.
Depending on version, the function consists of either the "Coffee Break Alert" system alone or combined with the "Driver Attention Alert" system.
WARNI NG
These systems are in no way designed to keep the driver awake or to prevent the driver from falling asleep at the wheel. It is the driver’s responsibility to stop if feeling tired.Take a break if you are feeling tired or at least
every 2 hours.
Activation/Deactivation
The settings are changed via the Driving / Vehicle touch screen menu.The state of the system is memorised when the ignition is switched off.
Coffee Break Alert
The system triggers an alert as soon as it detects that the driver has not taken a break after two hours of driving at a speed above 43 mph (70 km/h).This alert is issued via the display of a message encouraging the driver to take a break, accompanied by an audible signal.If the driver does not follow this advice, the alert is repeated hourly until the vehicle is stopped.The system resets itself if one of the following conditions is met:– With the engine running, the vehicle has been stationary for more than 15 minutes.– The ignition has been switched off for a few
minutes.– The driver's seat belt is unfastened and their door is opened.
NOTIC E
As soon as the speed of the vehicle drops below 43 mph (70 km/h), the system goes into standby.The driving time is counted again once the speed is above 43 mph (70 km/h).

Driver Attention Alert
Depending on version, the "Coffee Break Alert" system is combined with the "Driver Attention Alert" system.
The system assesses the driver's level of vigilance, fatigue or distraction by identifying variations in trajectory compared to the lane markings.To do this, the system uses a camera, placed on the upper part of the windscreen.This system is particularly suited to fast roads
(speed higher than 70 km/h (43 mph)).At a first-level alert, the driver is warned by the “Take care!” message, accompanied by an audible signal.After three first-level alerts, the system triggers a further alert with the message "Dangerous driving: take a break", accompanied by a more pronounced audible signal.
WARNI NG
The following situations may interfere with the operation of the system or prevent it from working:– poor visibility (inadequate lighting of the road, falling snow, heavy rain, dense fog, etc.);– dazzle (headlamps of an oncoming vehicle, low sun, reflections on a damp road, leaving a tunnel, alternating shade and light, etc.);– windscreen area located in front of the camera: dirty, misted, frost-covered, snow-covered, damaged or covered by a sticker.– lane markings absent, worn, hidden (snow, mud) or multiple (roadworks, etc.);– close to the vehicle ahead (lane markings not detected);– roads that are narrow, winding, etc.
NOTIC E
In certain driving conditions (poor road surface or strong winds), the system may give alerts independent of the driver's level of vigilance.
