Depress the brake pedal to stop the
vehicle and then ch ange the shift
position to change the direction of
travel of the vehicle. At this time,
assist will be suspended. However,
if the “Start” butt on is selected,
assist will resume and the vehicle
will move in the direction corre-
sponding to the selected shift posi-
tion.
■When the brakes have been
operated
When the brakes have been oper-
ated, brake operation sound may be
heard. This does not indicate a mal-
function.
When exiting from a perpendic-
ular parking space, if the system
determines that exit is possible
the perpendicular exiting (for-
ward/reverse) function can be
used. Also, depending on the
surrounding environment, if it is
necessary to change the direc-
tion of travel of the vehicle, the
shift position can be changed by
assistance control.NOTICE
■When using the perpendicu-
lar parking (forward/reverse)
function
●Make sure that there are no
obstructions within the yellow
guide lines and between the
vehicle and target parking spot.
If there are any obstructions
between the vehicle and the tar-
get parking space, or between
the yellow guide lines, cancel
the function.
●As the tar get parking space will
not be able to be set correctly if
the surface of the parking space
is on a slope or has differences
in height, the veh icle may stray
from the target parking space or
be slanted. Therefore, do not
use the function f or this kind of
parking spot.
●When parking in a narrow park-
ing space, the vehicle may
closely approach an adjacent
parked vehicle. If a collision
seems likely, depress the brake
pedal to stop the vehicle.
●If a detected parked vehicle is
narrow or parked extremely
close to the curb, the position at
which assistance will park the
vehicle will also be close to the
curb. If it seems likely the vehi-
cle will collide with something or
drive off of the road, depress
the brake pedal to stop the vehi-
cle, and then press the Advance
Park main switch to disable the
system.

■ECB (Electronically Con-
trolled Brake System)
The electronically controlled
system generates braking force
corresponding to the brake
operation
■ABS (Anti-lock Brake Sys-
tem)
Helps to prevent wheel lock
when the brakes are applied
suddenly, or if the brakes are
applied while driving on a slip-
pery road surface
■Brake assist
Generates an increased level of
braking force after the brake
pedal is depressed when the
system detects a panic stop sit-
uation
■VSC (Vehicle Stability Con-
trol)
Helps the driver to control skid-
ding when swerving suddenly or
turning on slippery road sur-
faces.
■TRAC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power
and prevent the drive wheels
from spinning when starting the
vehicle or accelerating on slip-
pery roads
■Active Cornering Assist
(ACA)
Helps to prevent the vehicle
from drifting to the outer side by
performing inner wheel brake
control when attempting to
accelerate while turning
■Hill-start assist control
Helps to reduce the backward
movement of the vehicle when
starting on an uphill

ing)
Employs an electric motor to
reduce the amount of effort
needed to turn the steering
wheel.

■The Secondary Collision
Brake
When the SRS airbag sensor
detects a collision and the sys-
tem operates, the brakes and
brake lights are automatically
controlled to reduce the vehicle
speed and help reduce the pos-
sibility of further damage due to
a secondary collision.
■When the TRAC/VSC/ABS sys-
tems are operating
The slip indicator light will flash
while the TRAC/VSC/ABS systems
are operating.
■Disabling the TRAC system
If the vehicle gets stuck in mud, dirt
or snow, the TRAC system may
reduce power from the fuel cell sys-
tem to the wheels. Pressing to
turn the system off may make it eas-
ier for you to rock the vehicle in
order to free it.
To turn the TRAC system off, quickly
press and release .
The “Traction Control Turned OFF”
will be shown on the multi-informa-
tion display. Press again to
turn the system
back on.

WARNING
●When Active Cornering Assist
frequently operates, Active Cor-
nering Assist may temporarily
stop operating to ensure proper
operation of the brakes, TRAC
and VSC.
■Hill-start assist control does
not operate effectively when
●Do not overly rely on hill-start
assist control. Hill-start assist
control may not operate effec-
tively on steep inclines and
roads covered with ice.
●Unlike the parking brake, hill-
start assist control is not
intended to hold the vehicle sta-
tionary for an extended period
of time. Do not attempt to use
hill-start assist control to hold
the vehicle on an incline, as
doing so may lead to an acci-
dent.
■When the TRAC/ABS/VSC is
activated
The slip indicator light flashes.
Always drive carefully. Reckless
driving may cause an accident.
Exercise particular care when the
indicator light 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.
■Secondary Collision Brake
Do not rely solely upon the Sec-
ondary Collision Brake. This sys-
tem is designed to help reduce
the possibility of further damage
due to a secondary collision, how-
ever, that effect changes accord-
ing to various conditions. Overly
relying on the system may result
in death or serious injury.
■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.
