RAIZE_OM_General_BZ358E
WARNING
⬛When starting the engine
Always start the engine while sitting in the driver’s seat. Do not depress the
accelerator pedal while starting th e engine under any circumstances.
Doing so may cause an unforeseen accident re sulting in death or serious injury.
⬛Caution while driving
If the vehicle starts sliding when the engine stops, do not open, lock or unlock
the doors until the vehicle stops safely . Doing so may activate the steering wheel
lock and lead to an unforeseen accident, resulting in serious injury or death.
⬛Stopping the engine in an emergency
If you want to stop the engine in an em ergency while driving the vehicle, press
and hold the engine switch for more than 3 seconds, or press it briefly 3 times
or more in succession. ( ➞P. 367)
However, do not touch the engine switch while driving except in an emer-
gency. Turning the engine off while driving will not cause loss of steering or
braking control, but the power assist to these systems will be lost. This will
make it more difficult to steer and brake, so you should pull over and stop the
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
NOTICE
⬛To prevent battery discharge
⚫Do not leave the engine switch “ACC” or “ON” for long peri ods of time with-
out the engine running.
⚫When the engine switch indi cator is not turned off, the engine switch is not
“OFF”. Before you leave the vehicle, turn “OFF” the engine switch.
⚫For the continuously variable transmission vehicles, do not stop the engine
with the shift lever placed in other t han P. When you stop the engine with
the shift lever placed in other than P and leave it as is, it could cause the bat-
tery to die since the engine switch will be set to “ACC”.
⬛When starting the engine
⚫Do not race a cold engine.
⚫If you have trouble starting the engine or experience frequent stalling, have
the vehicle inspected at your Toyota dealer immediately.
⬛Engine switch operation
If you experience unusual symptoms such as the switch being stuck when
pushing the engine switch, the switch may be broken. Contact your Toyota
dealer immediately.

⬛Situations where the BSM function may not work properly
⚫The BSM function may not detect vehicles correctly in the following circumstances.
⦁The sensor positions or orientations are off due to a strong impact applied
to the sensors or the surrounding areas
⦁ The sensors or the rear bumper near the sensors are covered with mud,
snow, ice, or stickers
⦁ Driving on a wet road or driving in a puddle under bad weather conditions,
such as heavy rain, snow, or fog
⦁ Several vehicles are continuously approaching in a tight space
⦁ When there is not enough distance between your vehicle and the follow-
ing vehicle
⦁ When the speed difference between yo ur vehicle and the other vehicle in
the detection range is too large
⦁ When the speed difference between your vehicle and the other vehicle is
fluctuating
⦁ When the speed of your vehicle and the other vehicle in the detection
range is almost the same
⦁ When another vehicle continues to stay in the detection range after your
vehicle starts moving from the stopped state
⦁ When driving up and down on a series of steep slopes or driving on
dented areas of a road
⦁ When driving through a sharp curve or continuous curves, or driving in an
area with ups and downs
⦁ When the other vehicle in the next la ne is too far away from your vehicle,
such as while driving in a wide lane or driving on the edge of the lane
⦁When the vehicle has accessories such as a bicycle carrier installed in the rear side
⦁When there is a large difference in th e vehicle height of your vehicle and
the other vehicle in the detection range
⦁ Right after turning on the BSM function or the RCTA function
⦁ Right after setting the shift lever to other than R
⦁ When an extremely heavy load is st ored in the luggage compartment
⦁ When a vehicle changed lanes from 2 lanes away to the next lane
⚫The BSM function may have more unnecessary detections, especially in the
following circumstances.
⦁The sensor positions or orientations are off due to a strong impact applied
to the sensors or the surrounding areas
⦁ When guardrails or walls have ente red the detection area while the dis-
tance from the vehicle is short
⦁ When a vehicle other than that trave ling in the next lane has entered the
detection range, such as while driving in a narrow lane or driving on the
edge of the lane

Driving assist systems
The following devices automatically operate according to the driving
conditions to improve driving safety and performance. However,
these systems are supplementary and you should be careful not to
over-rely on them while driving.
◆ABS (Anti-lock Brake System)
Helps to prevent wheel lock when the brakes are applied suddenly, or if
the brakes are applied while driving on a slippery road surface.
◆Brake assist
Generates an increased level of braking force when the system detects a
panic stop situation.
◆VSC (Vehicle Stability Control)
Helps the driver to control skidding when swerving suddenly or turning on
slippery road surfaces.
◆TRC (Traction Control)
Helps to maintain drive power and pr event the drive wheels from spinning
when starting the vehicle or accelerating on slippery roads.
◆Hill-start assist control
Prevents the vehicle from moving backwards when starting on an uphill.
◆EPS (Electric Power Steering)
Uses an electric motor to assist steering operation.
◆Emergency brake signal
Emergency flashers automatically fl ash when braking suddenly, alerting
the following vehicle and reducing the possibility of a collision.

engine output may not increase even when the accelerator pedal is
depressed, making it difficult to escape. In such a case, pressing
may make it easier to escape.
Press to stop TRC
The TRC OFF indicator lights.
Press again to return to system
ready state.
⬛To stop VSC and TRC
To stop VSC and TRC, press and hold for 3 seconds or more when the
vehicle has come to a stop.
The TRC OFF indicator and VS C OFF indicator light up.
Press again to return to system ready state.
⬛When the TRC OFF indicator lights up without pressing

⬛Activation of ABS/VSC
ABS/VSC does not work at low speeds. The operation is the same as the nor-
mal brake.
⬛Activation sound and vibration of the ABS, brake assist, VSC, TRC, and hill-
start assist control
⚫A sound may be heard from the engine compartment when the brake pedal
is depressed repeatedly, when the engine is started or just after the vehicle
begins to move. This sound does not indicate that a malfunction has
occurred in any of these systems.
⚫Any of the following conditions may occur when the above systems are oper-
ating. None of them indicates that a malfunction has occurred.
⦁ Vibrations may be felt through th e vehicle body and steering wheel
⦁ A motor sound may be heard even after the vehicle has come 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
⬛EPS motor operation sound
When the steering wheel is operated, a motor sound (whirring sound) may be
heard, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
⬛Automatic reactivation of VSC and TRC
After turning the TRC and VSC systems off, the systems will return to the ready
state in the following situations:
⚫When the engine switch is turned to “OFF”
⚫If only the TRC system is turned off, when vehicle speed increases
If both the TRC and VSC systems are tu rned off, automatic reactivation will
not occur when vehicle speed increases.
⬛Reduced effectiveness of the EPS system
The effectiveness of the EPS system is reduced to prevent the system from
overheating when there is frequent steering input over an extended period of
time. The steering wheel ma y feel heavy as a result.
Should this occur, refrain from excessive steering input or stop the vehicle and
turn the engine off. It should re turn to normal within 10 minutes.
