■Operating conditions of hill-
start assist control
When the following five conditions
are met, the hill-start assist control
will operate:
●The shift position is in a position
other than P or N (when stating off
forward/backward on an upward
incline)
●The vehicle is stopped
●The accelerator pedal is not
depressed
●The parking brake is not engaged
●Power switch is turned to ON
■Automatic system cancelation
of hill-start as sist control

off in any of the following situations:
●Shift the shift position to P or N
●The accelerator pedal is
depressed
●The parking brake is engaged
●2 seconds at maximum elapsed
after the brake pedal is released
●Power switch is turned to OFF
■Sounds and vibrations caused
by the ABS, brake assist, VSC,
TRAC and hill-start assist con-
trol systems
●A sound may be heard from the
fuel cell unit compartment when
the brake pedal is depressed
repeatedly, when the fuel cell sys-
tem is started or just after the vehi-
cle begins to move. This sound
does not indicate that a malfunc-
tion has occurred in any of these
systems.
●Any of the following conditions
may occur when t he above sys-
tems are operating. None of these
indicates that a malfunction has
occurred.
• Vibrations may be felt through the vehicle body and steering.
• A motor sound may be heard also
after the vehicle comes to a stop. • The brake pedal
may pulsate
slightly after the ABS is activated.
• The brake pedal may move down
slightly after the ABS is activated.
■ECB operating sound
ECB operating sound may be heard
in the following cases, but it does
not indicate that a malfunction has
occurred.
●Operating sound heard from the
fuel cell unit compartment when
the brake pedal is operated.
●Motor sound of the brake system
heard from the f ront part of the
vehicle when the driver’s door is
opened.
●Operating sound heard from the
fuel cell unit compartment when
one or two minutes passed after
the stop of the fuel cell system.
■Active Cornering Assist opera-
tion sounds and vibrations
When the Active Cornering Assist is
operated, operation sounds and
vibrations may be generated from
the brake system, but this is not a
malfunction.
■EPS operation sound
When the steering wheel is oper-
ated, a motor sound (whirring
sound) may be heard. This does not
indicate a malfunction.
■Automatic reactivation of TRAC
and VSC systems
After turning th e TRAC and VSC
systems off, the systems will be
automatically re-enabled in the fol-
lowing situations:
●When the power switch is turned
off
●If only the TRAC sy stem is turned
off, the TRAC will turn on when
vehicle speed increases
If both the TRAC and VSC sys-
tems are turned of f, automatic re-
enabling will not occur when vehi-
cle speed increases.

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.
