Activation of the steering lock in this circumstance may lead to an acci-dent, resulting in death or serious
injury.

ing message will be shown on the multi-information display and a buzzer sounds.

from P, the brake pedal must be
depressed before the shift release
button is pushed. If the shift release
button is pushed first, the shift lock
will not be released.
■Shift lock system
The shift lock system is a system to pre- vent accidental operation of the shift lever in starting.
The shift lever can be shifted from P only when the power switch is in ON and the brake pedal is being depressed.
■If the shift lever cannot be shifted
from P
First, check whether the brake pedal is being depressed.
If the shift lever cannot be shifted with your foot on the brake pedal, there may be a problem with the shift lock system.
Have the vehicle inspected by any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable
repairer immediately. The following steps may be used as an emergency measure to ensure that the
shift lever can be shifted. Releasing the shift lock:
1 Set the parking brake.
2 Turn the power switch off.
WARNING
■When driving on slippery road surfaces
Do not accelerate or shift gears sud- denly. Sudden changes in engine braking
may cause the vehicle to spin or skid, resulting in an accident.
NOTICE
■Hybrid battery (traction battery) charge
If the shift lever is in N, the hybrid bat-
tery (traction battery) will not be charged even when the engine is run-ning. Therefore, if the vehicle is left
with the shift lever in N for a long period of time, the hybrid battery (traction battery) will discharge, and
this may result in the vehicle not being able to start.

line-fueled vehicles, the engine brak- ing deceleration is felt less than that of other vehicles.
●The vehicle can be accelerated even when shift position B is selected.
If the vehicle is driven continuously in the B position, fuel efficiency will become low. Usually, select the D posi-
tion.
