Roadside Assistance
Roadside assistance for the Toyota Camry hybrid may be handled like
conventional Toyota vehicles except as noted in the following pages.
Toyota Roadside Assistance is available by contacting:
United States: (800) 297-0486 (for the first 2 years/25,000 miles)
Canada: (888) TOYOTA 8 [(888) 869-6828] (for the first 3 years/60,000 km)
Shift Lever
Similar to many Toyota vehicles, the Camry hybrid uses a gated shift lever as
shown in the illustration. However, the Camry hybrid shift lever includes a
B
position, allowing enhanced engine braking when driving down a steep grade.
Towing
The Camry hybrid is a front wheel drive vehicle and it
must
be towed with
the front wheels off the ground. Failure to do so may cause serious damage to
Hybrid Synergy Drive components.
A flat bed trailer is the preferred method of towing.
The vehicle may be shifted out of
P
ark into
N
eutral by turning the
ignition-on, depressing the brake, then moving the gated shift lever to
N
.
If the shift lever cannot be moved out of
P
ark, a shift lock release button
is provided under the cover near the shift lever as shown in the
illustration.
If a tow truck is not available, in an emergency the vehicle may be moved
for short distances at low speeds (below 18 mph (30 km/h)).
