Before driving
3-5.Opening, closing the windows
The power windows can be
opened and closed using the
switches.
Operating the switch moves the
windows as follows:
1Closing
2 One-touch closing
*
3Opening
4 One-touch opening
*
*: To stop the window partway,
operate the switch in the opposite
direction.
■The power windows can be
operated when
The engine switch is in ON.
■Operating the power windows
after turning the engine off
The power windows can be oper-
ated for approximately 40 seconds
after the engine switch is turned to
ACC or OFF. They cannot, however,
be operated once either front door is
opened.
■Jam protection function
If an object becomes jammed
between the window and the body while the window is closing, window
movement is stopped and the win-
dow is opened slightly.
■Catch protection function
If an object becomes caught
between the door and window while
the window is opening, window
movement is stopped.
■When the window cannot be
opened or closed
When the jam protection function or
catch protection function operates
unusually and the door window can-
not be opened or closed, perform
the following operations with the
power window switch of that door.
1 Check that all of the doors are
closed.
2 Turn the engine switch to ON.
3 Press and hold the power win-
dow switch in the one-touch
opening position. After the win-
dow is fully opened, continue
pressing the switch for approxi-
mately 1 second.
4 Pull and hold the power window
switch in the on e-touch closing
position. After the window is fully
closed, continue pulling the
switch for appro ximately 1 sec-
ond.
If you push the power window
switch to the openi ng position while
the window is movin g, start again
from the beginning. If the window
continues to close but then re-open
slightly even after performing the
above procedure correctly, have the
vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.

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):

1354-1. Before driving

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.

Stopping the engine
WARNING
■Stopping the engine in an
emergency
If you want to stop the engine in
an emergency while driving the
vehicle, press and hold the engine
switch for more than 2 seconds,
or press it briefly 3 times or more
in succession. ( P.338)
However, do not touch the engine
switch while driving except in an
emergency. Turning the engine off
while driving will not cause loss of
steering or braking control, but the
power assist to these systems will
be lost. This will make it more dif-
ficult to steer a nd brake, so you
should pull over and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do
so.
●If the engine switch is operated
while the vehicle is running, a
warning message will be shown
on the multi-information display
and a buzzer sounds.
●Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: To restart the
engine after performing an
emergency shutdown, shift the
shift lever to N and then press
the engine switch.
●Vehicles with a manual trans-
mission: To restart the engine
after performing an emergency
shutdown, depress the clutch
pedal and then press the engine
switch.

1664-3. Operating the lights and wipers
■The windshield wiper and
washer can be operated when
The engine switch is in ON.
■If no windshield washer fluid
sprays
Check that the wash er nozzles are
not blocked if there is washer fluid in
the windshield washer fluid reser-
v oi r.
WARNING
■Caution regarding the use of
washer fluid
When it is cold, do not use the
washer fluid until the windshield
becomes warm. The fluid may
freeze on the windshield and
cause low visibility. This may lead
to an accident, resulting in death
or serious injury.
NOTICE
■When the washer fluid tank is
empty
Do not operate the switch continu-
ally as the washer fluid pump may
overheat.
■When a nozzle becomes
blocked
In this case, contact your Toyota
dealer. Do not try to clear it with a
pin or other object. The nozzle will
be damaged.
