► Unlock the steering column by simultaneously turning the steering wheel and the key.
NOTIC E
In certain circumstances, a significant effort may be required to turn the steering wheel to move the wheels (if the wheels are against a kerb, for example).
► Turn the key to position 2, ignition on, to operate the engine preheating system.► Wait until this warning lamp goes off in the instrument panel, then operate the starter motor by turning the key to position 3 without pressing the accelerator pedal, until the engine starts. Once the engine starts, release the key so it returns to position 2.
NOTIC E
The warning lamp does not come on if the engine is already hot.In certain climatic conditions, it is advised to follow the recommendations below:– In mild conditions, do not leave the engine at idle to warm up but move off straight away and drive at moderate speed. Depending on version, if the air conditioning is activated and the exterior temperature exceeds 35°C, the engine's idle speed may increase, up to 1,300 rpm, depending on the
cooling requirements.
– In wintry conditions, the preheater warning lamp will stay on for a longer period after switching on the ignition; wait until it goes off before starting.– In very severe wintry conditions (temperature below -23°C), to ensure correct operation and durability of the mechanical components of the vehicle (engine and gearbox), leave the engine running for
4 minutes before starting the vehicle.Never leave the engine running in an enclosed area without adequate ventilation: internal combustion engines emit toxic exhaust gases, such as carbon monoxide. Danger of poisoning and death!
NOTIC E
With Petrol engine, after a cold start, preheating the catalytic converter can cause noticeable engine vibrations when stationary, with the engine running, for anything up to 2 minutes (accelerated idle speed).
WARNI NG
If the engine does not start immediately, switch off the ignition.Wait a few seconds before operating the starter motor again. If the engine does not start after several attempts, do not keep
trying: risk of damaging the starter motor and the engine.Contact any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.

WARNI NG
In some situations (e.g. battery full, extreme temperatures), the amount of regenerative braking may be temporarily limited, resulting in less deceleration.The driver must remain alert to traffic conditions and must always be ready to use the brake pedal.
With the brake pedal
When the brake pedal is depressed, the intelligent braking system automatically recovers some of the energy and uses it to recharge the traction battery.This energy recovery also reduces use of the brake pads, thereby limiting their wear.
NOTIC E
The driver may experience a different sensation when depressing the brake pedal compared to a vehicle without regenerative braking.
Driving modes (Electric)
Driving modes are selected using the following control:


Pressing the control displays the modes on the instrument panel and, depending on version, on the screen with TOYOTA Pro Touch with navigation system.You cannot select a mode if the READY lamp is off.When the message disappears, the selected mode is activated and remains indicated on the instrument panel (except Normal mode).Each time the ignition is switched on, Normal mode is selected by default.
Normal
This optimises the driving range and dynamic performance.To obtain maximum torque and power, depress the accelerator pedal fully.
Eco
Optimises energy consumption, by reducing the output of the heating and air conditioning
(without actually deactivating them) and limiting both motor torque and power.
Power
Provides equivalent vehicle performance when fully laden (GVW) to when the vehicle is in Normal mode and when unladen.
