WARNING
■ Cautions regarding the use of
the system
The driver is solely responsible for
safe driving. Always drive safely,
taking care to observe your sur-
roundings.
The RCTA function is only a sup-
plementary function which alerts
the driver that a vehicle is
approaching from the right or left
at the rear of the vehicle.
As the RCTA function may not
function correctly under certain
conditions, the driver’s own visual
confirmation of safety is neces-
sary.
Over reliance on this function may
lead to an accident resulting
death or serious injury.

WARNING
■ When attempting to free a
stuck vehicle
If you choose to push the vehicle
back and forth to free it, make
sure the surrounding area is clear
to avoid striking other vehicles,
objects or people. The vehicle
may also lunge forward or lunge
back suddenly as it becomes free.
Use extreme caution.
■ When shifting the shift posi-
tion
Be careful not to shift the shift
position with the accelerator pedal
depressed.
This may lead to unexpected
rapid acceleration of the vehicle
that may cause an accident
resulting in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
■ To avoid damaging the trans-
mission and other compo-
nents
● Avoid spinning the tires and
depressing the accelerator
pedal more than necessary.
● If the vehicle remains stuck
even after these procedures are
performed, the vehicle may
require towing to be freed.

NOTICE
■ Cooling system coolant
In order to ensure maximum performance of the traction battery cooling
system and limit risks of battery short-circuit and other damage to your
vehicle, Toyota recommends using “Toyota Genuine Traction Battery
Coolant” or similar high-quality ethylene glycol-based, low electric con-
ductivity coolant, non-amine and non-borate coolant with azole additives.
Toyota cannot guarantee that the use of a product other than “Toyota
Genuine Traction Battery Coolant” will prevent risks of battery short-circuit
or other damage.
Never use water as it will cause damage.
