Vehicle status information and indicators
Eco Driving Indicator Light
During Eco-friendly acceleration
(Eco driving), the Eco Driving Indi-
cator Light will turn on. When the
acceleration exceeds the Zone of
Eco driving, or when the vehicle is
stopped, the light turns off.
Eco Driving Indicator Zone
Display
Suggests the Zone of Eco driving
with current Eco driving ratio based
on acceleration.
Eco driving ratio based on
acceleration
If the acceleration exceeds the
Zone of Eco driving, the right side
of the Eco Driving Indicator Zone
Display will illuminate.
At this time, the Eco Driving Indica-
tor Light will turn off.
Zone of Eco driving
 Driving range
Displays driving range with remain-
ing fuel. Use the d isplayed values
as a reference only. This distance is computed based
on your average f
uel consumption.
As a result, the actual distance that
can be driven may differ from that
displayed.
When only a small amount of fuel is
added to the tank, the display may
not be updated.
When refueling, turn the engine
switch off. If the ve hicle is refueled
without turning the engine switch
off, the display may not be updated.
■Eco Driving Indicator
Eco Driving Indicator will not oper-
ate under the following conditions:
●The shift lever is in any position
other than D.
●The driving mode is set to sport
mode.
●The vehicle spe ed is approxi-
mately 130 km/h (80 mph) or
higher.

■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.
●A warning message is displayed
on the multi-information display
while the system is operating.
■Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle,
observing the following precautions
is recommended:
●For the first 186 miles (300 km):
Avoid sudden stops.
●For the first 621 miles (1000 km):
• Do not drive at extremely high speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low
gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed
for extended periods.
■Operating your vehicle in a for-
eign country
Comply with the relevant vehicle
registration laws and confirm the
availability of the correct fuel.
(  P.367)
WARNING
Observe the following precau-
tions.
Failure to do so m ay result in
death or serious injury.
■When starting the vehicle
Always keep your foot on the
brake pedal while stopped with
the engine running. This prevents
the vehicle from creeping.
■When driving the vehicle
●Do not drive if you are unfamil-
iar with the location of the brake
and accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accelerator pedal instead of the
brake pedal will result in sudden
acceleration that may lead to an
accident.
• When backing up, you may twist your body around, leading to a
difficulty in operating the pedals.
Make sure to operate the pedals
properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving posture even when mov-
ing the vehicle only slightly. This
allows you to depress the brake
and accelerator pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your right foot. Depressing the
brake pedal using your left foot
may delay response in an emer-
gency, resulting in an accident.
●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 i f there is any
flammable material nearby.

3Check that “IGNITION ON” is
displayed on the multi-infor-
mation display and press the
engine switch shortly and
firmly.
4 Check that “ACCESSORY”
or “IGNITION ON” on the
multi-information display are
off.
*: To improve fuel efficiency and
reduce noise, shift the shift lever
to D for normal driving.
■To protect the continuously
variable transmission
If the continuously variable trans-
mission fluid temperature is high,
“Transmission Oil Temp. High Stop
in a safe place and See owner’s
manual” will be displayed on the
multi-information display and the
vehicle will go into transmission pro-
tection mode automatically. Have
the vehicle inspected by your Toyota
dealer.
NOTICE
■To prevent battery discharge
Do not stop the engine when the
shift lever is in a position other
than P. If the engin e is stopped in
another shift lever position, the
engine switch will not be turned
off and remained to ON. If the
vehicle is left in ON, battery dis-
charge may occur.

■When driving with dynamic
radar cruise control activated
Even when switching the driving
mode to sport mode with the intent
of enabling engine braking, engine
braking will not occur because
dynamic radar cruise control range
will not be canceled. ( P.224)
■Restraining sudden start
(Drive-Start Control)
 P. 1 2 7
■G AI-SHIFT
G AI-SHIFT automatically selects a
suitable gear for sporty driving
according to driver’s input and driv-
ing conditions. G AI-SHIFT operates
automatically when th e shift lever is
in D and sport mode is selected for
the driving mode. (Selecting normal
mode or shifting the shift lever to the
M position cancels this function.)
■After recharging/reconnecting
the battery

ON and the brake pedal
depressed
*, shift the shift lever
while pushing the shift release
button on the shift knob.
:Shift the shift lever while
pushing the shift release button
on the shift knob.
:Shift the shift lever normally.
When shifting the shift lever
between P and D, make sure that
the vehicle is completely stopped
and the brake pedal is depressed.
*: For the vehicle be able to be shifted 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.
WARNING
■When driving on slippery
road surfaces
Do not accelerate o r shift the shift
gears suddenly.
Sudden changes in engine brak-
ing may cause the vehicle to spin
or skid, resulting in an accident.
Shifting the shift lever

1404-2. Driving procedures
operated, the shift range
switches to a range that is one
range higher than the current
range.
Changing the shift range allows
restriction of the highest gear,
preventing unnecessary upshift-
ing and enabling the level of
engine braking force to be
selected.
1Upshifting
2 Downshifting
The selected shift range, from D1 to
D10, will be dis played on the
multi-information display.
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 10 levels of
engine braking force.
●A lower gear s tep will provide
greater engine braking force than
a higher gear step, and the engine
speed will also increase.
■Deactivation of temporary
10-speed Sport Sequential
Shiftmatic mode (vehicles with
paddle shift switches)
In the following situations, tempo-
rary 10-speed Sport Sequential
Shiftmatic mode will be deactivated:
●When the vehicle is stopped
●If the accelerator pedal is
depressed continuously for more
than a certain amount of time while in one gear range
●If the accelerator pedal is
depressed abruptly and heavily
●When the shift lever is shifted to a
position other than D
●W h en th e “+ ” p ad dle sh ift sw itch is
operated for a certain amount of
time continuously
To enter 10-speed sport
sequential shiftmatic mode, shift
the shift lever to M position.
Gear steps can then be selected
by operating the shift lever or
paddle shift switches (if
equipped), allowing you to drive
in the gear step of your choos-
ing.

However, even when in the M
position, the gear steps will be
automatically changed if the
engine speed is too high, or too
low.
■Gear step functions
●You can choose from 10 levels of
engine braking force.
●A lower gear step will provide
greater engine braking force than
a higher gear step, and the engine
speed will also increase.
■When the vehic le comes to a
stop with the shift lever in the M
position
●The transmission will automati-
cally downshift to M1 once the
vehicle is stopped.
●After a stop, the vehicle will start
off in M1.
●When the vehicle is stopped, the
transmission is set at M1.
■Downshifting restriction warn-
ing buzzer
To help ensure safety and driving
performance, downshifting opera-
tion may sometimes b e restricted. In
some circumstances, downshifting
may not be possible even when the
shift lever or paddle shift switch (if
equipped) is operated. (A buzzer
will sound twice.)
■If the 10-speed sport sequential
shiftmatic mode indicator does
not come on even after shifting
the shift lever to M
This may indicate a malfunction in
the continuously variable transmis-
sion system. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer
immediately.
(In this situation, the transmission
will operate in t he same manner as
when the shift lever is in D.)
