to D, D to R, N to R, P to D, or P to R

appears on the multi-information dis-

While Drive-Start Control is being acti-

escape from the mud or fresh snow.

Breaking in your new Toyota
To extend the life of the vehicle, observ-
ing the following precautions is recom-
mended:
●
For the first 300 km (200 miles):
Avoid sudden stops.
●
For the first 800 km (500 miles):
Do not tow a trailer.
●
For the first 1000 km (600 miles):
• Do not drive at extremely high
speeds.
• Avoid sudden acceleration.
• Do not drive continuously in low
gears.
• Do not drive at a constant speed for
extended periods.
■
Operating your vehicle in a foreign
country
Comply with the relevant vehicle regis-
tration laws and confirm the availability
of the correct fuel. (
P.599)
WARNING
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
■
When starting the vehicle
On vehicles with automatic transmis-
sion or CVT, always keep your foot on
the brake pedal while stopped with
the engine running. This prevents the
vehicle from creeping.
■
When driving the vehicle
●
Do not drive if you are unfamiliar
with the location of the brake and
accelerator pedals to avoid
depressing the wrong pedal.
• Accidentally depressing the accel-
erator pedal instead of the brake
pedal will result in sudden accelera-
tion that may lead to an accident.
• When backing up, you may twist
your body around, leading to a diffi-
culty in operating the pedals. Make
sure to operate the pedals properly.
• Make sure to keep a correct driving
posture even when moving the
vehicle only slightly. This allows you
to depress the brake and accelera-
tor pedals properly.
• Depress the brake pedal using your
right foot. Depressing the brake
pedal using your left foot may delay
response in an emergency, result-
ing in an accident.
●
Do not drive the vehicle over or
stop the vehicle near flammable
materials such as leaves, paper or
rags.
The exhaust system and exhaust
gases can be extremely hot. These
hot parts may cause a fire if there is
any flammable material nearby.
