WARNING
■ General precautions while driv-
ing
Driving under the influence: Never
drive your vehicle when under the
influence of alcohol or drugs that have
impaired your ability to operate your
vehicle. Alcohol and certain drugs
delay reaction time, impair judgment
and reduce coordination, which could
lead to an accident that could result in
death or serious injury.
Defensive driving: Always drive
defensively. Anticipate mistakes that
other drivers or pedestrians might
make and be ready to avoid acci-
dents.
Driver distraction: Always give your
full attention to driving. Anything that
distracts the driver, such as adjusting
controls, talking on a cellular phone or
reading can result in a collision with
resulting death or serious injury to
you, your occupants or others.
■ General precaution regarding
children’s safety
Never leave children unattended in
the vehicle, and never allow children
to have or use the key.
Children may be able to start the vehi-
cle or shift the vehicle into neutral.
There is also a danger that children
may injure themselves by playing with
the windows, the moon roof, or other
features of the vehicle. In addition,
heat build-up or extremely cold tem-
peratures inside the vehicle can be
fatal to children.

COROLLA HV_TMMT_EE
 34 1-1. For safe use

The pretensioners help the seat

belts to quickly restrain the occu-
pants by retracting the seat belts
when the vehicle is subjected to
certain types of severe frontal or
side collision.
The pretensioners do not activate in the
event of a minor frontal impact, a minor
side impact, a rear impact or a vehicle
rollover.

■ Replacing the belt after the

pretensioner has been activated
If the vehicle is involved in multiple colli-
sions, the pretensioner will activate for
the first collision, but will not activate for
the second or subsequent collisions.

Your vehicle is a hybrid vehicle. It has characteristics different from

conventional vehicles. Be sure you are closely familiar with the
characteristics of your vehicle, and operate it with care.
The hybrid system combines the use of a gasoline engine and an 1
electric motor (traction motor) according to driving conditions,
improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions.

The pre-collision system uses
a radar sensor and front cam-
era to detect objects (P.260)
in front of the vehicle. When
the system determines that the
possibility of a frontal collision
with an object is high, a warn-

Driving in vehicle-to-vehicle distance control mode

This mode employs a radar to detect the presence of vehicles up to approx-
imately 100 m (328 ft.) ahead, determines the current vehicle-to-vehicle fol-
lowing distance, and operates to maintain a suitable following distance from
the vehicle ahead. The desired vehicle-to-vehicle distance can also be set
by operating the vehicle-to-vehicle distance switch.
When driving on downhill slopes, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance may become
shorter.

Driving
Example of constant speed cruising
When there are no vehicles ahead
The vehicle travels at the speed set by the driver.
Example of deceleration cruising and follow-up cruising
When a preceding vehicle driving slower than the set speed appears
When a vehicle is detected running ahead of you, the system automatically deceler-
ates your vehicle. When a greater reduction in vehicle speed is necessary, the sys-
tem applies the brakes (the stop lights will come on at this time). The system will
respond to changes in the speed of the vehicle ahead in order to maintain the vehi-
cle-to-vehicle distance set by the driver. Approach warning warns you when the sys-
tem cannot decelerate sufficiently to prevent your vehicle from closing in on the
vehicle ahead.
When the vehicle ahead of you stops, your vehicle will also stop (vehicle is stopped
by system control). After the vehicle ahead starts off, pressing the “+RES” switch or
depressing the accelerator pedal (start-off operation) will resume follow-up cruising.
If the start-off operation is not performed, system control continues to keep your
vehicle stopped.
When the turn signal lever is operated and your vehicle moves to an overtaking lane

COROLLA HV_TMMT_EE
 278 4-5. Using the driving support systems

while driving at 80 km/h (50 mph) or more, the vehicle will accelerate to help to over-
take a passing vehicle.
The system’s identification of what is an overtaking lane may be determined solely
based on the location of the steering wheel in the vehicle (left side driver position
versus right side driver position.) If the vehicle is driven to a region where the over-
taking lane is on a different side from where the vehicle is normally driven, the vehi-
cle may accelerate when the turn signal lever is operated in the opposite direction to
the overtaking lane (e.g., if the driver normally operates the vehicle in a region
where the overtaking lane is to the right but then drives to a region where the over-
taking lane is to the left, the vehicle may accelerate when the right turn signal is acti-
vated).
Example of acceleration
When there are no longer any preceding vehicles driving slower than the

Parking Support Brake function (static objects)*

*: If equipped
If the sensors detect a static object, such as a wall, in the travelling
direction of the vehicle and the system determines that a collision
may occur due to the vehicle suddenly moving forward due to an
accidental accelerator pedal operation, the vehicle moving the unin-
tended direction due to the wrong shift lever being selected, or while
parking or traveling at low speeds, the system will operate to lessen
the impact with the detected static object and reduce the resulting
damage.

Examples of function operation

This function will operate in situations such as the following if an object is

WARNING
■ Replacing light bulbs
● Turn off the lights. Do not attempt to
replace the bulb immediately after
turning off the lights. The bulbs
become very hot and may cause
burns.
● Do not touch the glass portion of
the light bulb with bare hands.
When it is unavoidable to hold the
glass portion, use and hold with a
clean dry cloth to avoid getting
moisture and oils on the bulb. Also,
if the bulb is scratched or dropped,
it may blow out or crack.
● Fully install light bulbs and any
parts used to secure them. Failure
to do so may result in heat damage,
fire, or water entering the light unit.
This may damage the lights or
cause condensation to build up on
the lens.
■ To prevent damage or fire
Make sure bulbs are fully seated and
locked.
