number of premature warnings
about critical situations.
Depending on the equipment and
the nationalmarket version, the
Rear Collision Prevention can
respond to vehicles approaching
from behind.
Radar sensors monitor the area
behind the vehicle.
If a vehicle is approaching from
behind at a relevant speed, the sys-
tem can respond as follows:
The hazard warning lights are
switched on if appropriate.
PreCrash functions are trig-
gered if appropriate.
The system is controlled using the
following sensors:
• Side radar sensors, rear.
For further information:
Sensors of the vehicle, see page

The system is automatically acti-
vated at the start of each journey.
The system is deactivated in the
following situations:

WA R N I N G
Displays and warnings do not relieve
you of your personal responsibility.
System limitations can mean that warnings or system responses are
not issued or are issued too late,
incorrectly or without justification. There is a danger of accidents. Adapt
your driving style to the traffic condi-
tions. Observe the traffic situation and intervene actively if the situation war-
rants it.

The system may ha ve restricted
functionality in the following situa-
tions:
The speed of the approaching
vehicle is much faster than your
own speed.
The approaching vehicle is
approaching slowly.
The brake lights flash to warn road
users behind the vehicle that emer-
gency braking is being performed.
Normal braking: brake lights illu-
minate.
Heavy braking: brake lights flash.
Shortly before the vehicle comes to
a standstill, th e hazard warning
lights are activated.
To switch off the hazard warning
lights:
Accelerate.
Press the hazard warning lights
button.
The system can automatically bring
the vehicle to a standstill in certain
accident situations without the
involvement of the driver. The risk
of a further collision and its conse-
quences can thereby be reduced.
After the vehicle has come to a halt,
the brake is released automatically.
In certain situations, it may be nec-
essary to bring the vehicle to a
standstill more quickly than is pos-
sible with automatic braking.
To do so, brake quickly and firmly.
For a brief period, the braking pres-
sure will be higher than that

If another vehicle suddenly pulls
out in front of you, the system might
not be able to restore the selected
distance automatically. In some cir-
cumstances, it may also not be
possible to restore the selected dis-
tance if you are driving significantly
faster than vehicles in front, for
example when rapidly approaching
a lorry. If a vehicle is clearly
detected in front of you, the system
prompts you to intervene by brak-
ing, and if necessary by taking eva-
sive action.
If the desired speed is too high for
cornering, it will be reduced slightly
in the bend. However, the system
may not detect bends in advance,
so moderate your speed when cor-
nering.
The system has a limited detection
range. Situations can arise on tight
bends where a vehicle driving in
front will not be detected or will be
detected very late.
When your vehicle is approaching a
bend, the angle of the bend may
cause the system to respond tem-
porarily to vehicles in the other
lane. If the system responds by
decelerating the vehicle, you may
compensate for this by accelerating
briefly. When the accelerator pedal
is released again, the system will

DRIVING HINTS
When visibility is poor due to fog,
even if it is daytime, turn the low
beam headlights on to make your
vehicle more visible to other vehi-
cles, etc. Drive with caution at a low
speed, using the centerline, guard-
rails, taillights of a preceding vehi-
cle, etc., as guide.
When the vehicle is being blown by
crosswinds, drive at a lower speed
and grip the steering wheel
stronger than normal.
The vehicle is especially suscepti-
ble to crosswinds when exiting a
tunnel or underpass, when driving
on a bridge or embankment, or
when passing or being passed by a
truck or other large vehicle.
During a rain storm or when the
road surface is wet, the road sur-
face may be slippery and visibil-
ity may be reduced. In this case,
turn the low beam headlights on
to make your vehicle more visi-
ble to other vehicles, etc.
Increase the distance between
your vehicle and preceding vehi-
cles and drive safely at a lower
speed than normal, avoiding
sudden acceleration, braking or
steering operations.
Use the rear defroster and air
conditioning system to prevent
the windows from fogging up.
Hydroplaning is more likely to
occur when driving on ruts or
through large puddles.
On wet or slushy roads, a wedge of
water can form between the tyres
and the road.

set off straight away, driving at
moderate engine speeds.
This brings the cold engine up to
operating temperature as quickly as
possible.
Anticipating the road situation and
adopting a smooth driving style will
reduce fuel consumption.
Avoid accelerating and braking
unnecessarily.
Keep an appropriate distance from
the vehicle ahead.
Driving at low engine speeds
reduces fuel consumption and
wear.
Pay attention to the shift position
indicator, see page 171, in the vehi-
cle, if fitted.
When approaching a red traffic
light, take your foot off the accelera-
tor and allow the vehicle to coast to
a stop.
On downward stretc hes, take your
foot off the accelerator and allow
the vehicle to roll.
The fuel supply is interrupted in
overrun mode.
When you stop the vehicle for
longer periods, for example at traf-
fic lights, railway crossings or in
traffic jams, switch off the engine.
The Auto Start/Stop of the vehicle
shuts off the engine automatically
during a stop.
Switching the engine off and on
again reduces fuel consumption
and emissions compared with a
permanently running engine. Sav-
ings can be made just by shutting
down the engine for a few seconds.
Functions such as seat heating or
rear window heating require a great
deal of energy and increase fuel
consumption, especially in city traf-
fic and stop-and-go traffic.
Switch these functions off if they
are not required.
Have the vehicle serviced regularly
to achieve optimal economy and
lifetime. Toyota recommends hav-
ing maintenance work carried out

ing traffic as possible.
• Switch on the hazard warning

• Apply the parking brake to pre-
vent the vehicle rolling away.
• Engage the steering wheel lock
with the wheels in the

• Have all vehicle occupants get
out of the vehicle and guide them
out of the danger area, for exam-

With the Mobility System, minor
tyre damage can be quickly sealed,
to allow you to drive on. For this
purpose, liquid sealant is pumped
into the tyres which encloses the
damage from the inside when it
hardens.
• Please observe the notes on the
application of the Mobility Sys-
tem which are on the compres-
sor and the sealant container.
• Applying the Mobility System can
be ineffective for tyre damage
larger than approximately 4 mm.
• Contact any authorized Toyota
retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer if
you are unable to put the tyre
back in operation.
• Foreign bodies that have pene-
trated the tyre should remain
inside the tyre. Only remove for-
eign objects if they are visibly
protruding from the tyre.
• Remove the speed limit sticker
from the sealant container and
attach to the steering wheel.
