WARNING
• Installation of additional electri-cal/electronic equipment such
as a mobile two-way radio on or
near the SRS airbag system
components and/or wiring is not
advisable. This could interfere
with proper operation of the
SRS airbag system.
• Modifications on or inside the door panels for the purpose of a
speaker replacement or sound
insulation
●The impact sensors, which
detect the pressure of an
impact, are located in the doors.
Do not modify any components
of the doors or d oor trims, such
as the addition of door speakers
for example. Any modifications
to the doors will create a risk of
the airbag system becoming
inoperative or unintended air-
bag deployment.
●Do not perform any of the fol-
lowing modifications. Such
modifications can interfere with
proper operation of the SRS air-
bag system.
• Attachment of any equipment (bush bar, winches, snow plow,
skid plate, etc.) other than genu-
ine Toyota accessory parts to
the front end.
• Modification of the suspension system or front end structure.
• Installation of a tire of different size and construc tion from the
tires specified on the vehicle
placard attached to the driver’s
center pillar or specified for indi-
vidual vehicle models in this
Owner’s Manual.
• Attachment of any equipment (side steps or side sill protec-
tors, etc.) other than genuine
Toyota accessory parts to the
side body.
Always consult your Toyota dealer
if you want to install any acces-
sory parts on your vehicle.
NOTICE
■SRS Airbag System Servicing
●When discarding an airbag
module or scrapping the entire
vehicle damaged by a collision,
consult your Toyota dealer.
●If you need service or repair in
areas indicated in the following
list, have the work performed by
an authorized Toyota dealer.
The SRS airbag control module,
impact sensors and airbag mod-
ules are stored in these areas.
• Under the center of the instru- ment panel
• On both the right and left sides at the front of the vehicle
• Steering wheel and column and nearby areas
• Bottom of the s teering column
and nearby areas
• Top of the dashboard on front passenger’s side and nearby
areas
• Each front seat and nearby area
• Inside each center pillar
• Inside each door
• In each roof side (from the front
pillar to a point over the rear
seat)

For safety and security• The angle of vehicle tip-up is marginal or the skidding vehicle’s
tires hit a curbstone laterally.
• An offset frontal collision that is
severe enough to deploy the front
airbag.
Examples of the types of acci-
dents in which it is possible
that the SRS side airbag and
the SRS curtain shield airbag
will deploy.
It is possible that the SRS side and
curtain shield air bags will deploy if
a serious impact occurs to the underside of your vehicle. Some
examples are shown
in the illustra-
tion.
• Hitting a curb, edge of pavement or hard surface
• Falling into or jumping over a
deep hole
• Landing hard or vehicle falling
Examples of the types of acci-
dents in which the SRS side
airbag is unlikely to deploy.
There are many types of collisions
which might not necessarily require
SRS side airbag deployment. In the

Driving
2Set the parking brake.
( P.156)
Check that the park ing brake indi-
cator is illuminated.
3 Shift the shift lever to N.
( P.153)
If parking on a hill, shift the shift
lever to 1 or R and block the wheels
as needed.
4Press the engine switch to
stop the engine.
5 Slowly release the brake
pedal.
6 Lock the door, making sure
that you have the key on your
person.
■Starting off on a steep
uphill
Automatic transmission
1 Make sure that the parking
brake is set and shift the shift
lever to D.
2 Gently depress the accelera-
tor pedal.
3 Release the parking brake.
Manual transmission
1 Make sure that the parking
brake is set and shift the shift
lever to 1.
2 Lightly depress the accelera-
tor pedal at the same time as
gradually releasing the clutch
pedal.
3 Release the parking brake.
■When starting off on an uphill
The hill-start assis t control will acti- vate. (
P.259)
■Driving in the rain
●Drive carefully whe n it is raining,
because visibility will be reduced,
the windows may become
fogged-up, and the road will be
slippery.
●Drive carefully whe n it starts to
rain, because the road surface will
be especially slippery.
●Refrain from hig h speeds when
driving on an expressway in the
rain, because there may be a
layer of water between the tires
and the road surface, preventing
the steering and brakes from
operating properly.
■Engine speed while driving
(vehicles with an automatic
transmission)
In the following conditions, the
engine speed may become high
while driving. This is due to auto-
matic up-shifting control or
down-shifting implementation to
meet driving conditions. It does not
indicate sudden acceleration.
●The vehicle is judged to be driving
uphill or downhill
●When the accele rator pedal is
released
●When driving on curves
●When the brake p edal is firmly
depressed
■Restraining the engine output
(Brake Override System)
When the accelerator and brake
pedals are depressed at the same
time, the engine output may be
restrained.
■New vehicle break-in driving
(the first 1000 miles [1600 km])
The performance a nd long life of
your vehicle are dependent on how
you handle and care for your vehicle
while it is new. Follow these instruc-
tions during the first 1000 miles
(1600 km):

Driving
WARNING
●Do not drive the vehicle over or
stop the vehicle near flammable
materials.
The exhaust system and
exhaust gases can be
extremely hot. These hot parts
may cause a fire if there is any
flammable material nearby.
●Vehicles with a manual trans-
mission: Do not release the
clutch pedal too quickly. Doing
so may propel the vehicle for-
ward, possibly causing an acci-
dent.
●During normal driving, do not
turn off the engine. Turning the
engine off while driving will not
cause loss of steering or brak-
ing control, but the power assist
to these systems will be lost.
This will make it more difficult to
steer and brake, so you should
pull over and stop the vehicle as
soon as it is safe to do so.
However, in the event of an
emergency, such as if it
becomes impossible to stop the
vehicle in the normal way:
P. 3 3 8
●Use engine braking (downshift)
to maintain a safe speed when
driving down a steep hill.
Using the brakes continuously
may cause the brakes to over-
heat and lose effectiveness.
(
P.149, 153)
●Do not adjust the positions of
the steering wheel, the seat, or
the inside or outside rear view
mirrors while driving.
Doing so may result in a loss of
vehicle control.
●Always check that all passen-
gers’ arms, heads or other parts
of their body are not outside the
vehicle.
●Do not drive in excess of the
speed limit. Even if the legal
speed limit permits it, do not
drive over 85 mph (140 km/h)
unless your vehicle has
high-speed capability tires. Driv-
ing over 85 mph (140 km/h)
may result in tire failure, loss of
control and possible injury. Be
sure to consult a tire dealer to
determine whether the tires on
your vehicle are high-speed
capability tires or not before
driving at such speeds.
■When driving on slippery
road surfaces
●Sudden braking, acceleration
and steering may cause tire
slippage and reduce your ability
to control the vehicle.
●Sudden acceleration, engine
braking due to shifting, or
changes in engine speed could
cause the vehicle to skid.
●After driving through a puddle,
lightly depress the brake pedal
to make sure that the brakes
are functioning properly. Wet
brake pads may prevent the
brakes from functioning prop-
erly. If the brakes on only one
side are wet and not functioning
properly, steering control may
be affected.
■When shifting the shift lever
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: Do not let the
vehicle roll backward while the
shift lever is in a driving posi-
tion, or roll forw ard while the
shift lever is in R.
Doing so may cause the engine
to stall or lead to poor brake and
steering performance, resulting
in an accident or damage to the
vehicle.
1384-1. Before driving
WARNING
●If the brake booster device does
not operate, do not follow other
vehicles closely and avoid hills
or sharp turns that require brak-
ing.
In this case, braking is still pos-
sible, but the brake pedal
should be depressed more
firmly than usual. Also, the brak-
ing distance will increase. Have
your brakes fixed immediately.
●Do not pump the brake pedal if
the engine stalls.
Each push on the brake pedal
uses up the reserve for the
power-assisted brakes.
●The brake system consists of 2
individual hydraulic systems; if
one of the systems fails, the
other will still operate. In this
case, the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than
usual and the braking distance
will increase. Have your brakes
fixed immediately.
■If the vehicle becomes stuck
Do not spin the wheels exces-
sively when any of the tires is up
in the air, or the vehicle is stuck in
sand, mud, etc. This may damage
the driveline components or pro-
pel the vehicle forward or back-
ward, causing an accident.
NOTICE
■Pre-driving check
Trapping small animals in the
cooling fan and belts of the engine
may result in a malfunction.
Check that no small animal enters
the engine compartment and
under the vehicle before starting
the engine.
■When driving the vehicle
(vehicles with an automatic
transmission)
●Do not depress the accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time while driving, as this may
restrain the engine output.
●Do not use the accelerator
pedal or depress the accelera-
tor and brake pedals at the
same time to hold the vehicle on
a hill.
■When driving the vehicle
(vehicles with a manual trans-
mission)
●Do not depress the accelerator
and brake pedals at the same
time during driving, as this may
restrain the engine output.
●Do not shift gea rs unless the
clutch pedal is fully depressed.
After shifting, do not release the
clutch pedal abruptly. Doing so
may damage the clutch, trans-
mission and gears.
●Observe the fo llowing precau-
tions.
Failure to do so may cause
excessive premature wear or
damage to the clutch, eventu-
ally making it difficult to acceler-
ate and start off from a stop.
Have the vehicle inspected by
your Toyota dealer.
• Do not rest your foot on the clutch pedal or depress it any
time other than when shifting.
Doing so may cause clutch trou-
ble.
• Do not use any gear other than the 1st gear when starting off
and moving forward.
Doing so may damage the
clutch.
