CAUTION
When braking
■
When the brakes are wet, drive more cautiously.
●
Braking distance increases when the brakes are wet, and this may cause
one side of the vehicle to brake differently than the other side. Also the
parking brake may not securely hold the vehicle.
If the electronically controlled brake system does not operate, do not fol-
●
low other vehicles closely and avoid hills or sharp turns that require brak-
ing.
In this case, braking is still possible, but the brake pedal should be
depressed more firmly than usual. Also, the braking distance will increase.
The brake system consists of 2 individual hydraulic systems; if one of the
●
systems fails, the others will still operate. In this case, the brake pedal
should be depressed more firmly than usual and the braking distance will
increase. If this happens, do not continue to drive the vehicle. If the brake
system warning light (red indicator) comes on together with the buzzer
sound while driving, immediately stop the vehicle in a safe place and con-
tact your Toyota dealer.
NOTICE
When driving the vehicle
■
Do not depress the accelerator and brake pedals at the same time during
●
driving, as this may restrain driving torque.
Do not use the accelerator pedal or depress the accelerator and brake
●
pedals at the same time to hold the vehicle on a hill.
When parking the vehicle
■
Always shift the shift lever to P. Failure to do so may cause the vehicle to
move or the vehicle may accelerate suddenly if the accelerator pedal is acci-
dentally depressed.
