when
The function will operate when the PKSB OFF indicator is not illuminated or
flashing ( P.82, 409) and all of the fol- lowing conditions are met:
●Engine output restriction control• The Parking Support Brake is enabled.
• The vehicle speed is approximately 15 km/h (9 mph) or less.• There is a static object in the traveling
direction of the vehicle and approxi- mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away.• The Parking Support Brake deter-
mines that a stronger-than-normal brake operation is necessary to avoid a collision.
●Brake control• Engine output restriction control is
operating. • The Parking Support Brake deter-mines that an immediate brake opera-
tion is necessary to avoid a collision.
■The Parking Support Brake func- tion (static objects) will stop oper-ating when
The function will stop operating if any of the following conditions are met:
●Engine output restriction control• The Parking Support Brake is dis-
abled. • The system determines that the colli-sion has become avoidable with nor-
mal brake operation. • The static object is no longer approxi-mately 2 to 4 m (6 to 13 ft.) away from
the vehicle or in the traveling direction of the vehicle.
●Brake control• The Parking Support Brake is dis-abled.
• Approximately 2 seconds have elapsed since the vehicle was stopped by brake control.

the system changes between
power mode, normal mode, and
ECO drive mode.
1 Normal mode
Provides an optimal balance of fuel
economy, quietness, and dynamic per-
formance. Suitable for normal driving.
2 Power mode
Controls the transmission and engine to
provide quick, powerful acceleration.
Making it suitable for when agile driving
response is desired, such as when driv-
ing on roads with many curves.
When the power mode is selected,
power mode indicator comes on.
3 Eco drive mode
Helps the driver accelerate in an eco-
friendly manner and improve fuel econ-
omy through moderate throttle charac-
teristics and by controlling the operation
of the air conditioning system (heat-
ing/cooling).
When the Eco drive mode is selected,
Eco drive mode indicator comes on.
■Operation of the air conditioning
system in Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode controls the heat- ing/cooling operations and fan speed of
the air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency. To improve air condition-ing performance, perform the following
operations:
●Turn off air conditioning eco mode
(vehicles with an automatic air condi- tioning system) ( P.318)
●Adjust the fan speed (P.312, 317)

■If “Exhaust Filter Full See Owner’s Manual” is shown on the multi-
information display
●The message may be displayed while
high load driving with particulate mat- ter accumulating.
●Engine output (engine speed) is restricted when a certain amount of particulate matter accumulates, how-
ever, it is possible to drive the vehicle unless the malfunction indicator lamp comes on.
●Particulate matter can accumulate more quickly if the vehicle is fre-
quently driven short trips or at low speeds, or if the engine is regularly started in an extremely cold environ-
ment. Excessive accumulation of par- ticulate matter can be prevented by periodically driving long distances
continuously with intermittent releas- ing of the accelerator pedal, such as when driving on highways and free-
ways.
■If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on or “Engine Maintenance Required Visit Your Dealer” is
shown on the multi-information display
The amount of accumulated particulate
matter has exceeded a certain level. Have the vehicle inspected by any
authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota
authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer immediately.
GPF (Gasoline Particu-
late Filter) system*
The GPF system collects par-
ticulate matter in the exhaust
gas by using an exhaust gas
filter.
The system will operate to
regenerate the f ilter automati-
cally, depending on the vehicle
conditions.
NOTICE
■To prevent the GPF system from
not operating properly
●Do not use fuel other than the spec- ified type
●Do not modify the exhaust pipes

the brakes are applied suddenly, or
if the brakes are applied while driv-
ing on a slippery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake pedal
is depressed when the system
detects a panic stop situation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding
when swerving suddenly or turning
on slippery road surfaces.
■Trailer Sway Control
Helps the driver to control trailer
sway by selectively applying brake
pressure for individual wheels and
reducing driving torque when trailer
sway is detected.
■TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and
prevent the drive wheels from spin-
ning when starting the vehicle or
accelerating on slippery roads
■Active Cornering Assist (ACA)
Helps to prevent the vehicle from
drifting to the outer side by perform-
ing inner wheel brake control when
attempting to accelerate while turn-
ing
■Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward
movement of the vehicle when
starting on an uphill
■EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort needed
to turn the steering wheel.
■Emergency brake signal
When the brakes are applied sud-
denly, the emergency flashers auto-
matically flash to alert the vehicle
behind.
■The Secondary Collision
Brake
When the SRS airbag sensor
detects a collision and the system
operates, the brakes and brake
lights are automatically controlled
to reduce the vehicle speed and
help reduce the possibility of further
damage due to a secondary colli-
sion.
Driving assist systems
To keep driving safety and per-
formance, the f ollowing sys-
tems operate automatically in
response to various driving sit-
uations. Be aware, however,
that these systems are supple-
mentary and should not be
relied upon too heavily when
