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 and the brake pedal is being
depressed.
■
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
with your foot on the brake pedal,
there may be a problem 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
Turn the engine switch to ON
and check that the parking brake
is set. (
2
Turn the engine switch to off.

Downshifting
The gear changes once every time
the shift lever or paddle shift switch
is operated.
The selected gear, from M1 to M8,
will be fixed and displayed on the
meters.
When in the M position, the gear
will not change unless the shift
lever is operated.
However, even when in the M
position, the gears will be auto-
matically changed in the follow-
ing situation:
When vehicle speed drops
(downshift only).
When the automatic transmis-
sion fluid or engine coolant
temperature is low.
When automatic transmis-
sion fluid temperature is high
(upshift only).
When the needle of the
tachometer is in the red zone
(the range which exceeds the
allowable revs of the engine).
In the following situation, the
gear will not shift even if the shift
lever is operated.
The vehicle speed is low
(upshift only).

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.

illuminate using the same lights as
the low beam headlights and illu-
minate dimmer than the low beam
headlights.
●
Vehicles with projector head-
lights: The daytime running lights
illuminate using the same lights as

Conditions to turn the high
beams on/off automatically
●
When all of the following condi-
tions are met, the high beams will
be turned on automatically (after
approximately 1 second):
• The vehicle speed is approxi-
mately 21 mph (34 km/h) or more.
• The area ahead of the vehicle is
dark.
• There are no vehicles ahead with
headlights or tail lights turned on.
• There are few streetlights on the
road ahead.
●
If any of the following conditions is
met, the high beams will turn off
automatically:
• The vehicle speed is below
approximately 17 mph (27 km/h).
• The area ahead of the vehicle is
not dark.
• Vehicles ahead have their head-
lights or tail lights turned on.
• There are many streetlights on the
road ahead.
■
Camera sensor detection infor-
mation
●
The high beams may not be auto-
matically turned off in the following
situations:
• When a vehicle suddenly appears
Automatic High Beam
The Automatic High Beam
uses a camera sensor
located behind the upper
portion of the windshield to
assess the brightness of the
lights of vehicles ahead,
streetlights, etc., and auto-
matically turns the high
beams on or off as neces-
sary.
WARNING
■
Limitations of the Automatic
High Beam
Do not overly rely on the Auto-
matic High Beam. Always drive
safely, taking care to observe your
surroundings and turning the high
beams on or off manually if nec-
essary.

To prevent incorrect opera-
tion of the Automatic High
Beam system
Do not overload the vehicle.

from around a curve
• When the vehicle is cut in front of
by another vehicle
• When vehicles ahead cannot be
detected due to repeated curves,
road dividers or roadside trees
• When vehicles ahead appear in a
faraway lane on a wide road
• When the lights of vehicles ahead
are not on
●
The high beams may be turned off
if a vehicle ahead that is using fog
lights without its headlights turned
on is detected.
●
House lights, street lights, traffic
signals, and illuminated billboards
or signs and other reflective
objects may cause the high
beams to change to the low
beams, or the low beams to
remain on.
●
The following factors may affect
the amount of time taken for the
high beams to turn on or off:
• The brightness of the headlights,
fog lights, and tail lights of vehi-
cles ahead
• The movement and direction of
vehicles ahead
• When a vehicle ahead only has
operational lights on one side
• When a vehicle ahead is a
two-wheeled vehicle
• The condition of the road (gradi-
ent, curve, condition of the road
surface, etc.)
• The number of passengers and
amount of luggage in the vehicle
●
The high beams may turn on or off
unexpectedly.
●
Bicycles or similar vehicles may
not be detected.
●
In the following situations the sys-
tem may not be able to correctly
detect the surrounding brightness
level. This may cause the low
beams to remain on or the high
beams to flash or dazzle pedestri-
ans or vehicles ahead. In such a
case, it is necessary to manually
switch between the high and low
beams.
• When driving in inclement weather
(heavy rain, snow, fog, sand-
storms, etc.)
• When the windshield is obscured
by fog, mist, ice, dirt, etc.
• When the windshield is cracked or
damaged
• When the camera sensor is
deformed or dirty
• When the temperature of the cam-
era sensor is extremely high
• When the surrounding brightness
level is equal to that of headlights,
tail lights or fog lights
• When headlights or tail lights of
vehicles ahead are turned off,
dirty, changing color, or not aimed
properly
• When the vehicle is hit by water,
snow, dust, etc. from a preceding
vehicle
• When driving through an area of
intermittently changing brightness
and darkness
• When frequently and repeatedly
driving ascending/descending
roads, or roads with rough, bumpy
or uneven surfaces (such as

ing road
• When there is a highly reflective
object ahead of the vehicle, such
as a sign or mirror
• When the back of a preceding
vehicle is highly reflective, such as
a container on a truck
• When the vehicle’s headlights are
damaged or dirty, or are not aimed
properly
• When the vehicle is listing or titling
due to a flat tire, a trailer being
towed, etc.
• When the headlights are changed
between the high beams and low
beams repeatedly in an abnormal
manner
