Automatic engine shut off fea-

ture

The vehicle is equipped with a

feature that automatically shuts off

the engine when the shift lever is

in P with the engine running for an

extended period.

The engine will automatically shut

off after approximately 1 hour if it

has been left running while the

ing 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 diffi-

cult to steer and brake, so you

should pull over and stop the

vehicle as soon as it is safe to

do so.

If the engine switch is operated

while the vehicle is running, a

warning message will be shown

on the multi-information display

and a buzzer sounds.

may lead to death or a serious

health hazard.

If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-

lated area or a closed area,

such as a garage, stop the

engine.

Do not leave the vehicle with

the engine running for a long

time. If such a situation cannot

be avoided, park the vehicle in

an open space and ensure that

exhaust fumes do not enter the

vehicle interior.

Do not leave the engine running

in an area with snow build-up,

or where it is snowing. If snow-

banks build up around the vehi-

cle while the engine is running,

exhaust gases may collect and

enter the vehicle.

:Shifting to the D position allows

the system to select a gear suit-
able for the driving conditions.
Setting the shift lever to the D
position is recommended for nor-
mal driving.

*2

:Selecting shift ranges using S

mode restricts the upper limit of
the possible gear ranges, con-
trols engine braking force, and
prevents unnecessary upshifting.

When driving with dynamic

radar cruise control with full-

speed range activated

Even when performing the following

actions with the intent of enabling

engine braking, engine braking will

not activate because dynamic radar

cruise control with full-speed range

will not be canceled.

While driving in S mode, down-

shifting to 7, 6, 5, or 4. (

When shifting the shift lever
between P and D, make sure that
the vehicle is completely stopped.

*

: For the vehicle to be able to be

shifted from P, the brake pedal
must be depressed before the
shift release button is pushed. If
the shift release button is pushed

first, the shift lock will not be
released.

Shift lock system

The shift lock system is a system to

prevent accidental operation of the

shift lever in starting.

The shift lever can be shifted from P

only when the engine switch is in

ON, the brake pedal is depressed

and the shift release button is

pushed.

If the shift lever cannot be

shifted from P

First, check whether the brake pedal

is being depressed.

If the shift lever cannot be shifted

even though the brake pedal is

depressed and the shift release but-

ton is pushed, there may be a prob-

lem with the shift lock system. Have

the vehicle inspected by your

Toyota dealer immediately.

The following steps may be used as

an emergency measure to ensure

that the shift lever can be shifted.
Releasing the shift lock:

1

Pull the parking brake switch to

check that the parking brake is

set. (

P.201)

2

Turn the engine switch to OFF.

3

Depress the brake pedal.

When the shift lever is in the S
position, the shift lever can be
operated as follows:

1

Upshifting

2

Downshifting

The selected shift range, from S1 to
S8 will be displayed on the multi-
information display.

The initial shift range in S mode
is set automatically to 4, 5 or 6
according to vehicle speed.
However, the initial shift range
may be set to 3 if AI-SHIFT has
operated while the shift lever
was in the D position. (

P.197)

S mode

You can choose from 8 levels of

accelerating force and engine

braking force.

A lower shift range will provide

greater accelerating force and

engine braking force than a higher

shift range, and the engine revolu-

tions will also increase.

To prevent the engine from over-

revving, upshifting may automati-

cally occur.

To protect the automatic transmis-

sion, a function is adopted that

automatically selects a higher shift

range when the fluid temperature

is high.

When the shift range is 7 or lower,

holding the shift lever toward “+”

sets the shift range to 8.

WARNING

To prevent an accident when

releasing the shift lock

Before pressing the shift lock

override button, make sure to set

the parking brake and depress the

brake pedal.
If the accelerator pedal is acci-

dentally depressed instead of the

brake pedal when the shift lock

override button is pressed and the

shift lever is shifted out of P, the

vehicle may suddenly start, possi-

bly leading to an accident result-

ing in death or serious injury.

Daytime running light system

Vehicles with multi-LED head-

lights and LED projector head-

lights with bulb type front turn

signal lights: The daytime running

lights illuminate using the same

lights as the low beam headlights

and illuminate dimmer than the

low beam headlights.

Vehicles with LED projector head-

lights with LED type front turn sig-

nal lights: The daytime running

lights illuminate using the same

lights as the parking lights and illu-

minate brighter than the parking

lights.

To make your vehicle more visible

to other drivers during daytime

driving, the daytime running lights

turn on automatically when all of

the following conditions are met.

(The daytime running lights are

not designed for use at night.)

• The engine is running

• The parking brake is released

• For the U. S. A.: The headlight

switch is in the

or

*

position

• For Canada: The headlight switch

is in the

or

*

*

: When the surroundings are bright

The daytime running lights remain
on after they illuminate, even if the
parking brake is set again.

For the U.S.A.: Daytime running

lights can be turned off by operat-

ing the switch.

Compared to turning on the head-

lights, the daytime running light

system offers greater durability

and consumes less electricity, so

it can help improve fuel economy.

Headlight control sensor (if

equipped)

The sensor may not function prop-

erly if an object is placed on the sen-

sor, or anything that blocks the

sensor is affixed to the windshield.

Doing so interferes with the sensor

detecting the level of ambient light

and may cause the automatic head-

light system to malfunction.
