NOTICE

●

People and other three-dimen-

sional obstacles may appear 

differently when displayed on 

the panoramic view monitor. 

(These differences include, 

among others, cases in which 

displayed objects appear to 

have fallen over, disappear near 

image processing areas, appear 

from image processing areas, 

or when the actual distance to 

an object differs from the dis-

played position.)

●

When the back door, which is 

equipped with the back camera, 

or front doors, which are 

equipped with door mirrors that 

have built-in side cameras, are 

open, images will not be dis-

played properly on the pan-

oramic view monitor.

●

The vehicle icon displayed in 

panoramic view/moving 

view/see-through view is a com-

puter generated image. Accord-

ingly, properties such as the 

color, shape and size will differ 

from the actual vehicle. For this 

reason, nearby three-dimen-

sional objects may appear to be 

touching the vehicle, and actual 

distances to three-dimensional 

objects may differ from those 

displayed.

The panoramic view monitor displays an image of the surrounding 
view of the vehicle.
Since the panoramic view processes and displays images based on 
flat road surfaces, it cannot depict the position of three-dimension 
objects (such as vehicle bumpers, etc.) that are in positions higher 
than the surface of the road. Even if there is room between the bum-
pers of the vehicles and it seems not likely to collide in the image, in 
reality, the both vehicles are on a collision course.

NOTICE

●

The panoramic view monitor 

may not operate properly in the 

following cases.

• If the camera is hit, the position 

and mounting angle of the cam-

era may change.

• As the camera has a water 

proof construction, do not 

detach, disassemble or modify 

it. This may cause incorrect 

operation.

• When cleaning the camera lens, 

flush the camera with a large 

quantity of water and wipe it 

with a soft and wet cloth. 

Strongly rubbing the camera 

lens may cause the camera lens 

to be scratched and unable to 

transmit a clear image.

• Do not allow an organic solvent, 

car wax, window cleaner or a 

glass coating to adhere to the 

camera. If this happens, wipe it 

off as soon as possible.

• If the temperature changes rap-

idly, such as when hot water is 

poured on the vehicle in cold 

weather, the system may not 

operate normally.

• When washing the vehicle, do 

not apply intensive bursts of 

water to the camera or camera 

area. Doing so may result in the 

camera malfunctioning.

●

Do not expose the camera to 

strong impacts as this could 

cause a malfunction. If this hap-

pens, have the vehicle 

inspected by your Toyota dealer 

as soon as possible.

The estimated course lines target flat surfaced objects (such as the

sional objects (such as vehicles) using the estimated course lines 
and distance guide lines. When approaching a three-dimensional 
object that extends outward (such as the flatbed of a truck), be care-
ful of the following.

Since the estimated course line 
is displayed for a flat road sur-
face, it cannot depict the posi-
tion of three-dimensional objects 
(such as vehicle bumpers, etc.) 
that are in positions higher than 

the surface of the road. Even if 
the bumpers of the vehicle is on

ity, the vehicles are on a colli-
sion course.

WARNING

■

Trailer Sway Control precau-

tion

The Trailer Sway Control system 

is not able to reduce trailer sway 

in all situations. Depending on 

many factors such as the condi-

tions of the vehicle, trailer, road 

surface and driving environment, 

the Trailer Sway Control system 

may not be effective. Refer to 

your trailer owner’s manual for 

information on how to tow your 

trailer properly.

■

If trailer sway occurs

Observe the following precau-

tions. 

Failing to do so may cause death 

or serious injury.

●

Firmly grip the steering wheel. 

Steer straight ahead. Do not try 

to control trailer swaying by 

turning the steering wheel.

●

Begin releasing the accelerator 

pedal immediately but very 

gradually to reduce speed.

Do not increase speed. Do not 

apply vehicle brakes.

If you make no extreme correction 
with the steering or brakes, your 
vehicle and trailer should stabi-
lize. (

When using Eco drive mode, the 
torque corresponding to the 
accelerator pedal depression 
amount can be generated more 
smoothly than it is in normal 
conditions. In addition, the oper-
ation of the air conditioning sys-
tem (heating/cooling) will be 
minimized, improving the fuel 
economy. (

Shift the shift lever to D when 
stopped at a traffic light, or driv-
ing in heavy traffic etc. Shift the 
shift lever to P when parking. 
When using the N position, 
there is no positive effect on fuel 
consumption. In the N position, 
the gasoline engine operates 
but electricity cannot be gener-
ated. Also, when using the air 

conditioning system, etc., the 
hybrid battery (traction battery) 
power is consumed.



Drive your vehicle smoothly. 
Avoid abrupt acceleration and 
deceleration. Gradual accel-
eration and deceleration will 
make more effective use of 
the electric motor (traction 
motor) without having to use 
gasoline engine power.



Avoid repeated acceleration. 
Repeated acceleration con-
sumes hybrid battery (trac-
tion battery) power, resulting 
in poor fuel consumption. Bat-
tery power can be restored by 
driving with the accelerator 
pedal slightly released.

Make sure to operate the brakes 
gently and in a timely manner. A 
greater amount of electrical 
energy can be regenerated 
when slowing down.

Repeated acceleration and 
deceleration, as well as long 
waits at traffic lights, will lead to 
bad fuel economy. Check traffic 
reports before leaving and avoid 
delays as much as possible.

Driving

When driving in a traffic jam, 
gently release the brake pedal 
to allow the vehicle to move for-
ward slightly while avoiding 
overuse of the accelerator 
pedal. Doing so can help control 
excessive gasoline consump-
tion.

Control and maintain the vehicle 
at a constant speed. Before 
stopping at a toll booth or simi-
lar, allow plenty of time to 
release the accelerator and gen-
tly apply the brakes. A greater 
amount of electrical energy can 
be regenerated when slowing 
down.

Use the air conditioning only 
when necessary. Doing so can 
help reduce excessive gasoline 
consumption.
In summer: When the ambient 
temperature is high, use the 
recirculated air mode. Doing so 
will help to reduce the burden on 
the air conditioning system and 
reduce fuel consumption as 
well.
In winter: Because the gasoline 
engine will not automatically cut 
out until it and the interior of the 
vehicle are warm, it will con-
sume fuel. Also, fuel consump-
tion can be improved by 

avoiding overuse of the heater.

Make sure to check the tire infla-
tion pressure frequently. 
Improper tire inflation pressure 
can cause poor fuel economy.
Also, as snow tires can cause 
large amounts of friction, their 
use on dry roads can lead to 
poor fuel economy. Use tires 
that are appropriate for the sea-
son.

Carrying heavy luggage will lead 
to poor fuel economy. Avoid car-
rying unnecessary luggage. 
Installing a large roof rack will 
also cause poor fuel economy.

Since the gasoline engine starts 
up and cuts out automatically 
when cold, warming up the 
engine is unnecessary. More-
over, frequently driving short 
distances will cause the engine 
to repeatedly warm up, which 
can lead to excess fuel con-
sumption.

WARNING

■

Utility vehicle precautions

Always observe the following pre-

cautions to minimize the risk of 

death, serious injury or damage to 

your vehicle:

●

In a rollover crash, an unbelted 

person is significantly more 

likely to die than a person wear-

ing a seat belt. Therefore, the 

driver and all passengers 

should always fasten their seat 

belts.

●

Avoid sharp turns or abrupt 

maneuvers, if at all possible.

Failure to operate this vehicle 

correctly may result in loss of 

control or vehicle rollover caus-

ing death or serious injury.

●

Loading cargo on the roof lug-

gage carrier (if equipped) will 

make the center of the vehicle 

gravity higher. Avoid high 

speeds, sudden starts, sharp 

turns, sudden braking or abrupt 

maneuvers, otherwise it may 

result in loss of control or vehi-

cle rollover due to failure to 

operate this vehicle correctly.

●

Always slow down in gusty 

crosswinds. Because of its pro-

file and higher center of gravity, 

your vehicle is more sensitive to 

side winds than an ordinary 

passenger car. Slowing down 

will allow you to have better 

control.

●

Do not drive horizontally across 

steep slopes. Driving straight up 

or straight down is preferred. 

Your vehicle (or any similar off-

road vehicle) can tip over side-

ways much more easily than 

forward or backward.

when crossing shallow streams, 

first check the depth of the water 

and the bottom of the riverbed for 

firmness. Drive slowly and avoid 

deep water.

■

Inspection after off-road driv-

ing

●

Sand and mud that has accu-

mulated around brake discs 

may affect braking efficiency 

and may damage brake system 

components.

●

Always perform a maintenance 

inspection after each day of off-

road driving that has taken you 

through rough terrain, sand, 

mud, or water. For scheduled 

maintenance information, refer 

to the “Scheduled Maintenance 

Guide” or “Owner’s Manual 

Supplement”.
