4-5. Using the driving support systems
Driving
This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to approx-
imately 100 m (328 ft.) ahead, d etermines the current vehicle-to-vehicle fol-
lowing distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from
the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle distance can also be set
by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, the vehicle-to-vehicle distanc e may become
shorter.
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appe ars
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-
ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the sys-
tem applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this ti me). The system will
respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order t o maintain the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. Approach warning war ns you when the sys-
tem cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the
vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also sto p (vehicle is stopped
by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pressin g the “+RES” switch or
depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will res ume follow-up cruising.
If the start-off operation is not performed, system control con tinues to keep your
vehicle stopped.

WARNING
■Cautions regarding the use of
the system
There is a limit to the degree of recog- nition accuracy and control perfor-
mance that this system can provide, do not overly rely on this system. The driver is always responsible for paying
attention to the vehicle’s surroundings and driving safely.
■To ensure the system can oper-ate properly
Observe the following precautions.
Failing to do so may result in the vehi- cle being unable to be driven safely and possibly cause an accident.
●Do not damage the sensors, and always keep them clean.
●Do not a sticker or an electronic component, such as a backlit
license plate (especially fluorescent type), fog lights, fender pole or wire-less antenna is installed near a
radar sensor.

are operating
The slip indicator light will flash while the TRC/VSC/ABS systems are operating.
■Disabling the TRC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt or
snow, the TRC system may reduce
power from the hybrid system to the
wheels. Pressing to turn the system
off may make it easier for you to rock the

5 Drive straight (with occasional
left and right turns) at approxi-
mately 40 km/h (25 mph) or
more for approximately 10 to 30
minutes.
Registration is complete when the tire
pressure warning light turns off and the inflation pressure of each tire is dis-played on the multi-information display.
Registration may take longer than approximately 1 hour in certain situa-tions, such as when the vehicle is
stopped for a long time at traffic lights, etc. ( P.340)
After registering the ID codes, make
sure to initialize the tire pressure warn- ing system. ( P.337)
■When registering ID codes
●Before performing ID code registra- tion, make sure that no wheels with tire pressure warning valve and trans-
mitters installed are near the vehicle.
●Make sure to initialize the tire pres-
sure warning system after registering the ID codes. If the system is initial-ized before registering the ID codes,
the initialized values will be invalid.
●As the tires will be warm when regis-
tration is completed, make sure to allow the tires to cool before perform-ing initialization.
■Canceling ID code registration
●To cancel ID code registration after it has been started, operate the multi-
information display to select “Identify-
ing Each Wheel & Position”. ( P.339)
●If ID code registration has been can-
celed, the tire pressure warning light will blink for approximately 1 minute when the power switch is turned to
ON mode and then illuminate. The tire pressure warning system will be oper-ational when the tire pressure warning
light turns off.
●If the warning light does not turn off
even after several minutes have elapsed, ID code registration may not have been canceled correctly. To can-
cel registration, perform the ID code registration start procedure again and then turn the power switch off before
driving.
■If ID codes are not registered prop- erly
●In the following situations, ID code registration may take longer than usual to be completed or may not be
possible. (Usually, the vehicle will need to be driven for approximately 10 to 30 minutes to complete ID code
registration.) If ID code registration is not complete after driving for approximately 30 min-
utes, continue driving for a while. • If the vehicle is driven on an unpaved road, it may take longer than normal
to complete registration. • If the vehicle is backed up while per-forming registration, data collected
during registration will be cleared, and it will take longer than normal to com-plete.
• If the vehicle is driven in heavy traffic or another situation where other vehi-cles are driven close by, it may take
time for the system to recognize the tire pressure warning valve and trans-mitters of your vehicle over those of
other vehicles. • If a wheel with a tire pressure warning valve and transmitter installed is
inside or near the vehicle, registration of the ID codes for the installed wheels may not be possible.

■After a fuse is replaced
●When installing the lid, make sure that the tab is installed securely.
●If the lights do not turn on even after the fuse has been replaced, a bulb
may need replacement. ( P.357)
●If the replaced fuse blows again, have
the vehicle inspected by any autho- rized Toyota retailer or Toyota autho-rized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■If there is an overload in a circuit
The fuses are designed to blow, protect- ing the wiring harness from damage.
■When replacing light bulbs
Toyota recommends that you use genu-
ine Toyota products designed for this vehicle.
Because certain bulbs are connected to circuits designed to prevent overload, non-genuine parts of parts not designed
for this vehicle may be unusable.
WARNING
■To prevent system breakdowns and vehicle fire
Observe the following precautions. Failure to do so may cause damage to the vehicle, and possibly a fire or
injury.
●Never use a fuse of a higher
amperage rating than that indi- cated, or use any other object in place of a fuse.
●Always use a genuine Toyota fuse or equivalent.
Never replace a fuse with a wire, even as a temporary fix.
●Do not modify the fuses or fuse boxes.

WARNING
■Replacing light bulbs
●Tur n o ff t h e li g ht s. D o n o t at t e mp t t o
replace the bulb immediately after turning off the lights. The bulbs become very hot and may cause
burns.
●Do not touch the glass portion of
the light bulb with bare hands. When it is unavoidable to hold the glass portion, use and hold with a
clean dry cloth to avoid getting moisture and oils on the bulb. Also, if the bulb is scratched or dropped,
it may blow out or crack.
●Fully install light bulbs and any
parts used to secure them. Failure to do so may result in heat damage, fire, or water entering the light unit.
This may damage the lights or cause condensation to build up on the lens.
■To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and
locked.
