Driving
Make sure to depress the brake
pedal once the vehicle has been
stopped by automatic braking.
Until the brake pedal is
depressed, a message will be
displayed on the multimedia
system screen and the continu-
ous beep will remain sounding.
At this time, a warning message
is also displayed on the
multi-information display.
Depress brake pedal warning“Apply Brake To Hold Posi-
tion”
The Sonar Audible Alarm and Auto-
matic Braking are different in opera-
tion conditions. Therefore there are
cases in which only one of these
functions will activate.
■After the vehicle is stopped
by the system
After the brake pedal is depressed, the RAB OFF indi-
cator will illuminate and the sys-
tem will temporarily stop
operating. The RAB OFF indica-
tor will turn off when the shift
lever is shifted to a position
other than R.
The system will operate again
the next time the shift lever is
shifted to R.
●The Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB) system will be disabled in
the following situations.
• When 3 seconds pass after the vehicle is stopped
• When any door is opened
• When the RAB warning light is illu-
minated
• When the RAB OF F indicator is
illuminated
●The Reverse Automatic Braking
(RAB) system may stop operating
temporarily in the following cases
and the RAB OFF indicator will
illuminate.
• Ice, snow or mud is adhered to the sonar sensors or the rear bumper
near the sonar sensor
• Objects are too close to the rear bumper when the sh ift lever is set
to R
• The system detects sounds of a similar frequency to the RAB
sonar
• When the TRAC and VSC mode are turned off
• When in TRACK mode and the
WARNING
Depress the brake pedal immedi-
ately after the system stops the
vehicle by automatic braking.
Depending on the conditions of
the road surface and tires, the
vehicle may not remain stopped,
possibly leading to an accident.

WARNING
■The ABS does not operate
effectively when
●The limits of tire gripping perfor-
mance have been exceeded
(such as excessively worn tires
on a snow covered road).
●The vehicle hydroplanes while
driving at high speed on wet or
slick roads.
■Stopping distance when the
ABS is operating may exceed
that of normal conditions
The ABS is not designed to
shorten the vehicle’s stopping dis-
tance. Always maintain a safe dis-
tance from the vehicle in front of
you, especially in the following sit-
uations:
●When driving on d irt, gravel or
snow-covered roads
●When driving with tire chains
●When driving over bumps in the
road
●When driving over roads with
potholes or uneven surfaces
■TRAC may not operate effec-
tively when
Directional control and power may
not be achievable while driving on
slippery road surfaces, even if the
TRAC system is operating. Do not
drive the vehicle in conditions
where stability and power may be
lost.
■When the VSC and/or brake
LSD function is activated
The slip indicator flashes. Always
drive carefully. Reckless driving
may cause an accident. Exercise
particular care wh en the indicator
flashes.
■When the TRAC/VSC systems
are turned off
Be especially careful and drive at
a speed appropriate to the road
conditions. As these are the sys-
tems to help ensure vehicle stabil-
ity and driving force, do not turn
the TRAC/VSC systems off
unless necessary.
■Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the
specified size, brand, tread pat-
tern and total load capacity. In
addition, make sure that the tires
are inflated to the recommended
tire inflation p ressure level.
The ABS, TRAC and VSC sys-
tems will not functi on correctly if
different tires are installed on the
vehicle.
Contact your Toyota dealer for fur-
ther information when replacing
tires or wheels.
■Handling of tires and the sus-
pension
Using tires with any kind of prob-
lem or modifying the suspension
will affect the driving assist sys-
tems, and may cause a system to
malfunction.

Use fluids that are appropriate
to the prevailing outside tem-
peratures.
• Engine oil
• Engine coolant
• Washer fluid
Have a service technician
inspect the condition of the
battery.
 Have the vehicle fitted with
four snow tires.
Make sure to install 4 tires that are
of the specified size, and that all 4
tires are the sa me size, same
maker, same brand and tread pat-
tern.
Perform the following according
to the driving conditions:
 Do not try to forcibly open a
window or move a wiper that
is frozen. Pour warm water
over the frozen area to melt
the ice. Wipe away the water
immediately to prevent it from
freezing.
 To ensure proper operation of
the climate control system
fan, remove any snow that
has accumulated on the air
inlet vents in front of the wind-
shield.
 Check for and remove any
excess ice or snow that may
have accumulated on the
exterior lights, vehicle’s roof,
Winter driving tips
Carry out the necessary
preparations and inspec-
tions before driving the
vehicle in winter. Always
drive the vehicle in a man-
ner appropriate to the pre-
vailing weather conditions.
Preparation for winter
WARNING
■Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions
to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failure to do so m ay result in a
loss of vehicle control and cause
death or serious injury.
●Use tires of the specified size,
and that are the same size,
same maker, same brand and
tread pattern.
●Maintain the recommended
level of air pressure.
●Do not drive in excess of 75
mph (120 km/h), regardless of
the type of snow tires being
used.
●Use snow tires on all, not just
some wheels.
NOTICE
■Repairing or replacing snow
tires
Request repairs or replacement of
snow tires from Toyota dealers or
legitimate tire retailers.
This is because the removal and
attachment of snow tires affects
the operation of the tire pressure
warning valves and transmitters.

chassis, around the tires or on
the brakes.
 Remove any snow or mud
from the bottom of your shoes
before getting in the vehicle.
 If a door is opened and closed
when its side window is fro-
zen, the window safety device
will operate and the side win-
dow open/close function
linked to door operation may
not operate correctly.
If this occurs, perform the fol-
lowing after the ice has
melted.
1 Open the window to the
approximately half open posi-
tion with the door closed.
2 Press and hold the power
window switch in the
one-touch opening position.
After the window is fully
opened, continue pressing
the switch for approximately
1 second.
3 Pull and hold the power win-
dow switch in the one-touch
closing position. After the
window is fully closed, con-
tinue pulling the switch for
approximately 1 second.
The window position wil lbe reset
and the operation of the window
safety device will be canceled.
Accelerate the vehicle slowly,
keep a safe distance between you and the vehicle ahead, and
drive at a reduced speed suit-
able to road conditions.

Park the vehicle and shift the
shift lever to P (automatic
transmission), or 1 or R (man-
ual transmission) without set-
ting the parking brake. The
parking brake may freeze up,
preventing it from being
released. If the vehicle is
parked without setting the
parking brake, make sure to
block the wheels.
Failure to do so may be dan-
gerous because it may cause
the vehicle to move unexpect-
edly, possibly leading to an
accident.
 Vehicles with an automatic
transmission: If the vehicle is
parked without setting the
parking brake, confirm that
the shift lever cannot be
moved out of P
*.
*: The shift lever will be locked if it is
attempted to be sh ifted from P to
any other position without
depressing the brake pedal. If the
shift lever can be shifted from P,
there may be a problem with the
shift lock system. Have the vehi-
cle inspected by your Toyota
dealer immediately.

When parking the vehicle

2684-7. Driving tips
Tire chains cannot be used on
your vehicle because of the lack
of clearance between the tires
and vehicle body.
When tire chains cannot be
used, use of another type of
traction device (such as spring
chains) may be acceptable if
use on your vehicle is recom-
mended by the device manufac-
turer, taking into account tire
size and road conditions. Follow
the device manufacturer's
instructions, especially regard-
ing maximum vehicle speed.
To help avoid damage to your
vehicle, drive slowly, readjust or
remove the device if it is con-
tacting your vehicle, and do not
spin your wheels. Damage
caused to your vehicle by use of
a traction device is not covered
under warranty.
Make certain that any traction
device you use is an SAE class
“S” device, and use it on the rear
wheels only. Always use the
utmost care when driving with a
traction device. Overconfidence
b e c a u s e y o u a r e u s i n g a t r a c t i o n
device could easily lead to a
serious accident.
We recommend that you consult
your Toyota dealer for informa-tion about the chains that you
can use.
