When a low level of ambient light is detected by a sunshine sensor, the number plate lamps, sidelamps and dipped beam headlamps are switched on automatically, without any action on the part of the driver. They can also come on if rain is detected, at the same time as the automatic rain sensitive wipers.As soon as the brightness returns to a sufficient level or after the windscreen wipers are switched
off, the lamps are switched off automatically.

Emergency braking
assistance (EBA)
In an emergency, this system enables you to reach the optimum braking pressure more quickly and therefore reduce the stopping distance.It is triggered in relation to the speed at which the brake pedal is pressed. This is felt by a reduction in the resistance of the pedal and an increase in braking efficiency.
Anti-slip regulation (ASR)
/ Dynamic stability control
(DSC)
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises traction by using engine braking and by applying the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the vehicle's directional stability.If there is a difference between the vehicle’s trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the dynamic stability control system automatically uses engine braking and the brakes on one or
more wheels to return the vehicle to the desired path, within the limits of the laws of physics.These systems are activated automatically every time the vehicle is started.These systems are activated in the event of a problem with grip or trajectory (confirmed by this warning lamp flashing on the instrument panel).
Deactivation/Reactivation
In exceptional conditions (moving a vehicle that is bogged down in mud, stuck in snow, on loose soil, etc.), it may prove useful to deactivate the DSC/ASR systems, so that the wheels can move freely and regain grip.However, it is recommended that the systems be reactivated as soon as possible.
NOTIC E
Only the ASR system can be deactivated from the touch screen.
Deactivating using the button or Toyota Traction SelectPress this button or turn the thumbwheel to this position.The indicator lamp in the button or thumbwheel comes on: the DSC/ASR systems no longer
have an effect on engine operation.Deactivating using the touch screenIn the "Driving/Vehicle" menu, deactivate the ASR system.

The trailer stability control system provides an extra safety feature under normal driving conditions, when following the recommendations for use of trailers and current legislation in force in your country. It must not encourage the driver to take extra risks, such as using a trailer in unsuitable
conditions of operation (e.g. excessive load, exceeded nose weight, worn or under-inflated
tyres, faulty braking system) or driving at excessive speed.In certain cases, the system may not detect trailer snaking, particularly with a light trailer.When driving on slippery or poor surfaces, the system may not be able to prevent sudden trailer snaking.
Toyota Traction Select
(Depending on version)A special, patented traction control system, which improves driveability on snow, mud and sand.This system, optimised for operation in a range of conditions, enables you to manoeuvre in most slippery conditions (encountered during normal passenger car use).When combined with all-season Peak Mountain Snow Flake tyres, this system offers a compromise between safety, grip and driveability.The accelerator pedal should be pressed sufficiently to allow the system to harness the power of the engine. Operation at high engine speeds is completely normal.A five-position selector knob allows you to choose the setting best suited to the driving conditions encountered.
An indicator lamp associated with each mode comes on, accompanied by the display of a message to confirm your choice.

authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
Front seat belts
The front seat belts are fitted with a pyrotechnic pretensioning system and force limiter.This system improves safety in the front seats in the event of a front or side impact. Depending on the severity of the impact, the pyrotechnic pretensioning system instantly tightens the seat belts against the body of the occupants.The pyrotechnic pretensioning seat belts are enabled when the ignition is on.
The force limiter reduces the pressure of the seat belt on the chest of the occupant, thus improving their protection.
