Know what kind of control to look for.
This original category diagram is an orientation aid, not a picture of your exact trim. Use the written labels and your vehicle manual to identify the real control.
Step by step.
- 01
With the engine running, locate the Stop & Start cancel switch.
- 02
Press it once and confirm the Stop & Start cancel indicator illuminates.
- 03
Drive normally; the engine will remain running instead of performing the system's automatic stop at eligible stops.
- 04
Press the switch again to restore Stop & Start, or restart the engine because the system is automatically re-enabled at the next start.
Important limits
- Canceling Stop & Start can increase fuel use and idling emissions.
- Disable the system in poorly ventilated areas because the engine can otherwise restart automatically while a system stop is active.
Quick checks.
- ✓If Stop & Start returns after the next trip, that is normal; Toyota states it automatically re-enables after the engine is restarted.
- ✓If a malfunction message remains, close the hood, restart normally and have a Toyota dealer inspect the system if the warning persists.
