NOTICE
In the following situations, the LKA will not work, or will not perform
reliably
When lane markers are interrupted or are not present, such as before a
tollbooth.
When lane markers are only on one side of the road.
When driving on a sharp curve.
When lanes are extremely narrow or extremely wide.
When the vehicle leans to one side an unusual amount due to a heavy
load or improper tire inflation pressure.
When the following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead
is extremely short.
When the lane markers are broken or “Raised pavement marker”.
When lane markers are obscured or partially obscured by sand, dirt, etc.
When driving on a particularly bright road surface, such as concrete.
When driving on a road surface that is bright due to reflected light.
When driving in a location where the light level changes rapidly, such as
the entrance to or exit from a tunnel.
When sunlight or the headlights of oncoming vehicles are shining directly
into the camera lens.
When driving on roads that are branching or merging.
When pavement lane markers are difficult to see due to rain, snow, fog,
etc.
When driving on a road surface that is wet due to rain, previous rainfall,
standing water, etc.
When the vehicle experiences strong up-and-down motion such as when
driving on an extremely rough road or on a seam in the pavement.
When headlight brightness is reduced due to dirt on the lenses, or when
the headlights are misaligned.
When driving with a strong crosswind.

AVENSIS_OM_OM20B88E_(EE)
CAUTION
When the TRC and VSC are off
Be especially careful and drive at a speed appropriate to the road condi-
tions. As these are systems to ensure vehicle stability and driving force, do
not turn off TRC and VSC unless necessary.
Replacing tires
Make sure that all tires are of the same size, brand, tread pattern and total
load capacity. In addition, make sure that the tires are inflated to the speci-
fied tire pressure level.
The ABS, TRC and VSC systems will not function correctly if different tires
are fitted on the vehicle.
Contact any authorized Toyota dealer or repairer, or another duly qualified
and equipped professional for further information when replacing tires or
wheels.
Handling of tires and suspension
Using tires with any kind of problem or modifying the suspension will affect
the driving assist systems, and may cause the system to malfunction.

When driving
AVENSIS_OM_OM20B88E_(EE)
CAUTION
Driving with snow tires
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause death or
serious injury.
Use tires of the size specified for your vehicle.
Maintain the recommended level of tire inflation pressure.
Do not drive at speeds in excess of the speed limit or the speed limit spec-
ified for the snow tires being used.
Snow tires should be installed on all wheels.
Driving with tire chains
Observe the following precautions to reduce the risk of accidents.
Failing to do so may result in the vehicle being unable to be driven safely,
and may cause death or serious injury.
Do not drive in excess of the speed limit specified for the tire chains being
used or 50 km/h (30 mph), whichever is lower.
Avoid driving on bumpy road surfaces or over potholes.
Avoid sudden turns and braking, as use of chains may adversely affect
vehicle handling.
Slow down sufficiently before entering a curve to ensure that vehicle con-
trol is maintained.

344 2-5. Driving information
AVENSIS_OM_OM20B88E_(EE)
Tire information
Ensure that your vehicle’s tires are properly inflated. (P. 743)
Increase the air pressure of the trailer tires in accordance with the total
trailer weight and according to the values recommended by the manufac-
turer of your trailer.
Trailer lights
Check that the turn signal lights and stoplights are operating correctly every
time you hitch up the trailer. Directly wiring up to your vehicle may damage
the electrical system and stop the lights from functioning correctly.
Break-in schedule
Toyota recommends that vehicles fitted with new power train components
should not be used for towing trailers for the first 800 km (500 miles).
Maintenance
Maintenance must be performed more frequently when using the vehicle
for towing due to the greater weight burden placed on the vehicle com-
pared to normal driving.
Retighten all bolts securing the hitching ball and bracket after towing for
approximately 1000 km (600 miles).
