Driving
■Situations in which the system
may operate even if there is no
possibility of a collision
In some situations, such as the fol-
lowing, the system may operate
even though there is no possibility of
a collision.
●When driving on a narrow road.
●When driving toward a banner,
flag, low-hanging branch or boom
barrier (such as those used at rail-
road crossings, toll gates and
parking lots).
●When there is a rut or hole in the
surface of the road.
●When driving on a metal cover
(grating), such as those used for
drainage ditches.
●When driving up or down a steep
slope.
●If a sensor is hit by a large amount
of water, such as when driving on
a flooded road.
●There is dirt, snow, water drops or
ice on a sensor. (Cleaning the
sensors will resolve this problem.)
●A sensor is coated with a sheet of
spray or heavy rain.
●When driving in inclement weather
such as fog, snow or a sandstorm.
●When strong winds are blowing.
●When vehicle horns, vehicle
detectors, motorcycle engines, air
brakes of large vehicles, the clear-
ance sonar of other vehicles or
other devices which produce ultra-
sonic waves are near the vehicle.
●If the front of the vehicle is raised
or lowered due to the carried load.
●If the orientation of a sensor has
been changed due to a collision or
other impact.
●The vehicle is approaching a tall
or curved curb.
●Driving close to columns (H-
shaped steel beams, etc.) in multi-
story parking garages, construc-
tion sites, etc.
●If the vehicle cannot be driven in a
stable manner, such as when the
vehicle has been in an accident or
is malfunctioning.
●On an extremely bumpy road, on
an incline, on gravel, or on grass.
●When tire chains, a compact
spare tire or an emergency tire
puncture repair kit are used.

When trouble arises
shift position is in N, shift the shift
position to P when the vehicle is
stopped.
■If “Hybrid System Overheated
Output Power Reduced” is
shown
The message may be shown when
driving under severe operating con-
ditions. (For example, when driving
up a long steep hill or driving up a
steep hill in reverse.)
Coping method: P.595
■If “Traction battery needs to be
protected. Shift into P to
restart.” is shown
This message is displayed when the
hybrid battery (traction battery)
charge has become extremely low
because the shift position has been
left in N for a certain amount of time.
When operating the vehicle, shift to
P and restart the hybrid system.
■If “Shift is in N Release Acceler-
ator Before Shifting” is shown
Message is displayed when the
accelerator pedal has been
depressed and the shift position is in
N. Release the accelerator pedal
and shift the shift position to D or R.
■If “Press brake when vehicle is
stopped Hybrid system may
overheat” is shown
Message is displayed when the
accelerator pedal is depressed to
maintain the vehicle position when
stopped on a upward slope, etc.
If this continues, the hybrid system
may overheat.
Release the accelerator pedal and
depress the brake pedal.
■If “Shift System Malfunction
Shifting Unavailable Drive to a
Safe Place and Stop” or “Shift
System Malfunction Driving
Unavailable” is displayed
There is a malfunction in the shift
control system. Have the vehicle
inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.
